I have applied a patch known as the 'Pokemon Fire Red 649 Patch' and I wish to make a hack PURELY FOR MYSELF with it. I am aware that the creator does not want his patch being used in full hacks and I respect it. So my question is, being the noob I am, how do you edit wild pokemon WITHOUT using a-map or a program such as that. I mean is there a way to hex edit every wild pokemon for every route? I need a way to edit the wild pokemon that doesn't involve a program, because the program can't load it properly as it does not expect 649 pokemon.

why do you care about this in any way? what consent did the creator get from gamefreak to make the hack in the first place? (hint: none)

anyone who makes any kind of rom hack and tries to control it in any way really couldn't be more of a hypocrite.

you can always start with a vanilla ROM in a-map and check which offsets change.

then just find that data in your 649 patched ROM and edit it in a hex editor

then again you can always decompile amap and change the read offset (probably just a static pointer like PRC)

@Bond697 True, but isn't there a rule somewhere that declares I must have permission to use the work to be able to include it in a publicly released hack?

@Kaphotics Thankyou very much, that's a fantastic idea that helps quite a bit, not really sure how to do what you said, I could probably figure it out.
