  • I am, but it's taking a long time. I have a mapper's block, still only around the first gym since rebooting it.
    Hi :)
    I guess I'll reply you back in the thread so others can see the answer as well. I could have done it before but been "busy" doing other stuff. But hey, nice to hear you've really liked playing it.
    Screenshots aren't the biggest deal with hacks in the Sideshow Showcase, but it can't hurt to add a few screens of the ways you made it more difficult (ie. show the higher level Pokémon in-battle, or show them using different moves than they normally would, etc). No biggie!
    I was unaware it was ever officially Dr. Fuji in the movie or Blaine in the manga.
    The creators of Mewtwo in my hack are the nameless scientists of the Pokemon Research Lab on Cinnabar Island.
    Thanks for the compliment! And good question. I don't like it when a lot of hacks come out with a dozen betas before the final release, I find that stupid. I think I will try to have a beta of the first two gyms out by the end of the summer and that will be the game's only 'demo' before the final release, whenever that may get done.
    I do not really support tool hacks. I was very excited for you to want to learn this for yourself and I put a lot of time into that tutorial.
    To edit the name of the rom, just open up your rom in a hex editor. You'll see it.
    Tools are overrated anyway. You're going to benefit a TON more by learning how to do this for yourself. Alright. here's a bunch of information comin' at ya, are you ready?

    First you'll need a hex editor, such as Hexecute, Translhextion, WindHex32, or GoldFinger. It's up to you which one you prefer, but these are some of the most popular. And before I really get into all of this, I want to apologize if it ever appears like I am insulting your knowledge, I just don't know how much you know at this point so I am going to try to be thorough.

    Now open up your rom in the hex editor

    Here are he offsets to the trainer party data for the gym leaders and the Elite Four:
    Giovanni - 0x3A290
    Bruno - 0x3A3A9
    Brock - 0x3A3B5
    Misty - 0x3A3BB
    Lt. Surge - 0x3A3C1
    Erika - 0x3A3C9
    Koga - 0x3A3D1
    Blaine - 0x3A3DB
    Sabrina - 0x3A3E5
    Lorelei - 0x3A4BB
    Agatha - 0x3A516
    Lance - 0x3A522

    Note: "0x" is a prefix indicating that the number is in hexadecimal (base 16). You can use Windows Calculator to easily convert between decimal (base 10) and hexadecimal. Just open up Windows Calculator, press the "View" drop-down and select "Scientific" if it is not already selected and then you can type a number in decimal and then click "Hex" to get the hexadecimal, or type a number in hexadecimal and click "Dec" to get the decimal number. Let me know if you need more information on how the base 16 number system works.

    Now at these offsets, you'll notice the first byte is always 0xFF. This indicates that this trainer is a special trainer where each Pokemon can have a unique level. Other trainer party data, such as Bug Catcher or Youngster, do not have 0xFF and just start with the party data because all of their Pokemon have to be the same level. Anyway, the format for special trainers is:
    1st byte: FF (indicates special trainer)
    2nd byte: First Pokemon's level
    3rd byte: First Pokemon's ID
    4th byte: Second Pokemon's level
    5th byte: Second Pokemon's ID
    if there are more Pokemon for the trainer, the format continues (level, then Pokemon)
    Last byte: 00 (tells the game it is done reading the party data for this trainer)

    Now to edit this data, the levels are pretty simple. Just replace the level byte with whatever level you want it to be, but the number you put in has to be hexadecimal. So the decimal number 100 is 0x64 in hex so you probably won't want to use a number above 0x64. (although the levels are capable of going up to 255 (0xFF))

    Next is editing the Pokemon ID. Here are the IDs for each Pokemon:

    02 002 Kangaskhan

    Now just get the Hexadecimal ID of the Pokemon you want to put in and replace the ID of the Pokemon you are trying to edit.

    Let's do Brock as an example. So go to 0x3A3B5. The first byte we see is FF so we know this is a special trainer. The next two bytes are 0C A9. The first byte should be the level and 0x0C in decimal is 12. According to the table I provided, A9 is Geodude. So Brock's first Pokemon should be a level 12 Geodude. The next two bytes are 0E 22. 0x0E is 14 and 22 is Onix. So Brock's second Pokemon is a level 14 Onix. The next byte is 00 so we know those are the only two Pokemon Brock has. Make sense?
    Let me know if you have any questions on anything I said or anything about how to use a hex editor. Good luck!
