Pokemon Hacking Thread

I have also started on my hack, but I come abit short due to some slight laziness I have with pokemon hacking. Anyway, if you need tools, I recommend you go to

>Here<

If you scroll down a bit, you will find a forum marked emulation. Click it then go to the sub-forum "toolbox" and you will get a bunch of tools to help you. Here are some ones I recommend:

~ YAPE 0.9
~ Advance Map Editor

And I'm pretty sure there are some script editors out there (whatever they are.) Also, you might wnat to check compatibility with your ROM, as I have only tested the recommended ones on Sapphire and FireRed.

Other than that, Happy Hacking!!

Actually I know all about these, really any sensible Pokemon Hacker should.
I say Riotman898 should add these kind of things in the first post, very helpful for new folks.
I'm sorry, but it just sounded (and looked like) this place needed links. Anyway, I have a question...

What is scripting, and how do you modify it to your liking? I'm just asking because I started pokemon hacking approx. 9 days ago.
Anyway, if you know how, or have a link that leads to a page that shows you how, please post.

I've found a better source of supplies at:

[url=http://darktech.110mb.com/tool.html]

I've been looking at script editors, but I can't yet say which one's my favorite yet...
Hey, I'm Riot. I used to use this website a lot but it has been quite a while since I've been a part of it. Help me out with any of the changes; it'd be much appreciated.
Yea I know about that place, also, I have fiddled with da scripts, but.. I didn't get athing, and the easy version wouldn't open.. :P

Fair enough. Use whatever you want as your source of supplies. I'll get some links up on the first post.

How do you edit the graphics of trainers when you battle them?
I'm having a hard time searching a way to find out, so a tool/link that helps me edit the trainer's graphics would help.

Well, Tile Molester and Tile Layer Pro are compatible with Pokemon games. You can get them from PokeTech, and I think you can get Tile Molester here at SMWC.

OK, I've downloaded elite map (cuz tile molster doesn't seem to edit all graphics) and I have found out how to use rsball. The only problem is that pokepic refuses to open up like most videos on youtube depict.
As a matter of fact, I'm using a firered rom. Is it not compatible? Or is there another way into inserting graphics into firered?

As far as I know, poke-pic is easily compatible. I used it for a time. (until I erased everything Pokemon hacking in my files and started from scratch) I would get back to it, but I have not found a link to it, if you find any problems with it opening up, and youtube won't help you, either depict the problem to me, or show me a video of how it acts like. (the video doesn't have to be yours)
Well it opens up fine, but when I chose to open a rom, it doesn't give me nothing. Am I supposed to open up the graphics or ROM, because it seems to work fine in <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaG1Qhbc4Rk>this</a> video. I'm using Firered by the way.

I can't figure this out. I'm trying to edit the text of the game. How would I go about doing that? I'm using advanced text, but it doesn't work. I registered that .ocx it needed, but it doesn't work.
This would be another good place to go for tools.

Pumpkin Dave, what ROM are you using? I've had lots of trouble with text editing in FireRed/LeafGreen ROMs, but not so much in RSE ROMs. And what exactly isn't working? Is it not accepting the ROM, or is it not working INI/save wise?

Apparently I didn't realize I needed comctl32.ocx
That's been fixed for days...
Yeah, I just figured out that pokepic is not compatible with firered, because I opened a sapphire ROM and it worked fine. Is there any other way to insert graphics into fire red, because the one I downloaded from poke-tech doesn't seem to be compatible.

Have you looked for another version?

Tried, but there still doesn't seem to be a firered compatible one. The only thing thats closest to inserting graphics is this video, and I'm still not getting much from it to firered

Sorry for the DP, but every time I insert my graphics in pokepic to sapphire, they glitch, and the background shows. I'm using Paint.net, and the file is a bitmap image. Any suggestions?

Hmm.. how exactly are you inserting them? As I have not used the program in a while, so I need an exact explanation to help. (unless you point me in the right direction, even though I could maybe just scroll up and find the link)
