raytheon Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) Hi there. I was toying with HGSS save offsets and it seems that three parts are incorrect in the technical documentation: - battle items - first registered item - second registered item using this save, one can see that first registered item is a bicycle and the second one super rod. But according to listed offsets it seems that something is off - battle items starts at 0xD64 and consists of 31 blocks 4 byte each = 124 = 0x7C. But if this offset is used, then the last item of battle items is bicycle. I've subtracted 4 bytes from this supposed length and battle items were left intact. Then I've modified offsets of registered items so the first one starts at 0xDDC instead of 0xDE0 and the second one starts at 0xDDE. So I think battle items indeed starts at 0xD64, but consists of 30 4-byte blocks instead of 31. If someone would be so kind to verify my findings, as I cannot exclude the possibility of doing something wrong on my side. Though I'm rather confident, given that every other value is looking as it supposed to. EDIT: python output with corrected battle items offset: bytearray(b'<\x00\x01\x009\x00\x02\x00:\x00\x01\x00C\x00\x01\x007\x00\x01\x00=\x00\x01\x008\x00\x02\x00;\x00\x01\x00A\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00') and before the correction: bytearray(b'<\x00\x01\x009\x00\x02\x00:\x00\x01\x00C\x00\x01\x007\x00\x01\x00=\x00\x01\x008\x00\x02\x00;\x00\x01\x00A\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xc2\x01\xbf\x01') at the end of the second output you can see that those two fellas: \xc2\x01 and \xbf\x01. Applying little endian notation, first one is equal to 450 and the second 447, bicycle and super rod respectivly, according to bulbapedia. edit2: or even not 30 4-byte blocks but 15, as there are only 15 distinct battle items According to another technical documentation Edited June 9, 2023 by raytheon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
