Mat487: My shiny Dragonite I received from Alder's grandson is a Pokestar, according to Pokecheck, but has never done anything to earn the title and plays the shiny animation when sent out, because it is shiny. What causes this? https://www.pokecheck.org/?p=detail&uid=4494544 Says it's a pokestar shiny, but 0x87 = 0x19 (not > 250)

You posted a pic of you on an emulator... You can edit your save file. However, if you want to make a code: Take any save file. Edit MXYZ Compare before / after Make AR code ... You're probably better off just adding a teleport pkm to your party.

Read post 3.

already answered a long time ago: 8bit reads vs 16bit. Was never planned to have this degree of customization. Even if you manually edit it to be above 255, the game simply ignores the uppermost 8 bits - because it only reads the 8 bits at 0x2A.

Use DeSmuME. No$ is years out of date.

Not looking hard enough.

shouldn't be BWTE's fault, so long as you only swapped out the trainer narc this won't happen. Looks like a certain layer is set from the battle UI and isn't removed. Code related / other narc related. Be sure you re-inserted everything properly.

Use PikaEdit to change your MXYZ and Trainer name then. Dunno what you did, honestly.

You can't go above 255 with sprites.

There's no trash bytes possible for a totally capped name, so if it was pal parked to an english game it'd be exactly the same as a german game nothing wrong here

. Testing custom scripts in real time Using a Lua script, you can write a script into the game in real time. Using Event Script Writer (scrins.Lua), the script writes a text string (of hex copypasted from a hex editor) directly into the memory. If an NPC were to initiate script 0, the game would read the inserted script rather than the one from the ROM. To use: Save state. Load the script. Stop it for now. Talk to the NPC once so that the default script data is loaded. Use the Overworld Editor script to force all NPCs to use Script 1 (offset 0xA = 0x1). Run the insertion script. Talk to the NPC, custom script runs. Dump of scripting related tutorial resources: ============ Feel free to ask questions related to scripting, whether it be how they work or how to script a certain event.

. Quick Script Interpretation The best way to figure out how to script an event is to observe one in game. I created a subversion of NPRE that parses B2W2 scripts. Download this NPRE svn https://www.dropbox.com/s/owrbm4fw4nh07ut/NPREzz.zip?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/kf1gi0i23yfc266/NPRE-1226.zip?dl=0 . How to use NPRE: Open the program File->Open your ROM Navigate to /a/0/5/6, right click open as Narc (script). Select Target game as B2W2 A new window will pop up. In the top left corner, enter the script number you want to open. It will then parse the script! Open spoiler for visual illustration of ^ above process ^ To exhibit the parsing, here's an image of the first example script file I gave in part 1. Open script file 0 with NPRE via the dropdown in the top left corner. Open spoiler for visual illustration of ^ above process ^ As you can see, Script 1 (displayed as Script 0) starts at Offset 60. In hex, that's 0x3C. The next script starts at 0x3E; this is exactly the same as we mathematically solved in part one of this tutorial. Now that you can quickly see how the game does certain events in game, you can easily open up that script file to see the raw hex instructions and what they do! But... you want to script your own stuff too! ----- List of Common Commands C# reference of known commands and parameter length, from NPRE's source . Should be fairly easy to understand; although most don't have comments, it should be obvious as to how the parameters of each command are used (and how many). Here's a reduced list with some description: Logic & Meta commands: NPC Interaction Teleportation All this is pretty useless unless you know what you are doing. More advanced scripting is covered in the next post. Sound Hexes for PlaySound/Play... again, C# reference of known commands and parameter length, from NPRE's source . Biggest database of known commands.

Introduction: Scripting is what coordinates and executes in-game events to create a story for the player. Gen III hacks have been able to tell new stories with custom scripts written from scratch; future hacks in more current generations are key for good hacks. This thread is to provide information in regards to how to script, what script commands do, and some example scripts. I'll try to go more in depth than pichu2001 did in his basic tutorial thread; if you are just starting off scripting, you should definitely read his thread first. Starting Information: First you need to extract the Script .narc with NitroExplorer, and unpack it into the individual files with editor.exe (kiwi.ds). Program & Lua starter kit: download here The location of the scripts is /a/0/5/6 There is currently no XSE equivalent of symbolic scripting for B2W2. We're doing this with hex. So have a hex editor ready (HxD or Hex Workshop), and get PPNFR to replace the individual scripts you edit. How do you know what script is used where? You currently need to use a Lua script while emulating. The script depicted below is in the starter kit. At the bottom right corner of the touch-screen, it tells you which Script is being used. Correlate this with the file numbers you extracted from the narc. Script Structure: As previously described by pichu2001 , the script contains two parts. The pointers and the scripts that are pointed to. Pointers are 4 bytes long (32 bits); the first script in this example image points to 00 00 00 38, which is equivalent to 00000038 = 0x38. 0x38 bytes after this pointer is the start of script 1. Use this formula to find the script's location in the file: Current Read Offset + Pointer Value = Script Offset In this example image, 0x04+0x38 = 0x3C. The first script is located at 0x3C... unfortunately it starts off reading as "End", so the script ends there. Try finding the offset of Script 2; you should get 0x3E, which just so happens to start right after Script 1 ends. To tell the game to stop reading pointers, a 16 byte "STOP" = 13 FD is used (0xFD13). After the STOP, there are no more pointers and the raw script command data starts. Pointers are an important part of the file; if you insert anything between existing data, the pointers will point to improper locations. I'll cover this later. Hello World: Interpreting Existing Scripts Knowing how to script requires you to observe how commands are normally used by others. I'll show you an example script that has an NPC says a text line and ends the script when dismissed. Above is the example script file. As you can see, it contains one script, which starts at 0x06. [color="purple"]02 00 00 00[/color] [u][i]13 FD[/i][/u] [color="blue"]2E 00 A6 00 47 05 74 00 3D 00 00 04 0A 00 00 00 00 00 32 00 3F 00 30 00 2F 00 02 00 00 00[/color] First we must separate out our script data.

Pretty easy to interpret when you know what each command is... Value Storage: Flags, Containers (const) and Variables The game likes to keep track of what has happened in game, and your choices that you have made. If you get an item from an NPC, the game sets a flag so that the NPC doesn't give it out again. The game also sets flags to prevent NPCs from spawning (so that progress based NPCs appear/disappear) [*]If you choose a certain starter, the game sets a Const container to know what Rival teams to face you against. Constants are stored in the save file along with flags. [*]Variables are temporary values that are used to contain values for a short time. Variables do the majority of the work in scripts. They are defined by some command, then later used as dynamic parameters. Essentially symbolic math. Variables are not saved in the save file; however if they are not cleared/set properly their values can persist into other custom scripts. When you are done with them, clear them! Conclusion: Part 1 This introduction to scripting is just touching the surface on what you can do with B2W2 scripting. With over 800 commands at your disposal (more than 3x that of Gen III), there's so much more you can do!

Just RNG. No such code can do that much.

Start over without using Tinke. This past week there already was a thread with a walkthrough, and people have done it.

Looks like you've corrupted the part of your save data which contains your MXYZ and OT. 0x19400 and 0x19500 blocks of the Save File. It's stored in the RAM.

you have to re-animate it yourself, or use the static animation files used by MissingNo (index 0) No, there is no tutorial for this; it is up to you to figure it out.

PPNFR to replace the exact files in their proper positions

don't use tinke to replace files, use PPNFR or some other program. tinke shuffles around index#'s for the files which causes the game to load the wrong data -> crash

Hex is incredibly easy to understand; BlackShark even indicated how the code works and what values it sets. 0x03E7 = 999dec 0x003B = 59dec 399dec = 0x018F 59dec = 0x003B 003B03E7->003B018F Hex is base16 (2^4), dec is base10, binary is base2. Windows has a built in calculator program that can easily convert... and there's many online.
