My doc of the game's internal routines... I don't share that.

Secondly, I looked into your patch and found what was causing the bug for you!

It's at 4:7E10. You revert the palettes to the ones from the backup-screen instead of the one used. You can change that in two or more ways:

- change it to read hl from 0x9800, it's probably always the accurate screen.
- change it to read hl from 0xFFD8/D9, that's the register that tells the game where to draw the tiles to
- or, preferrably the most accurate, change it to read from 0xC3A0, as that is always the right screen

It's not like I don't like HyperHacker or stuff, just a little competition here

Indeed I do care. As to my precious work, you don't seem to get what I'm talking about, for one. Maybe to translate it as "scripting code" didn't clear things enough, whatever. The things you mentioned there, are in fact, in there.

I'm talking about the codes that get executed, for instance, when you talk to a person, when you get a Pokémon etc. You talk about codes used in text. Regardless, it's all in there:

[snip]

These, I translated as in-text-codes, because they can be executed, once the text interpreter is started via any of the large range of commands, like, for instance the widely used 4C scripting code. It comes in nicer formatting in the .doc resp. .html too

You might just understand something wrong about the scripting doc, however, it should be clear that I didn't pull that 41-page-document out of my ass.

The "translated Goldmap" is up for d/l and has been up for d/l a long time. However, when I made that posting, the site got hacked and went down. But now it's up and running again, here you go sir : http://magicstone.de/rhw/ Since it's all in bad German, I'll tell you to go to "Pokémon-Hacking" / "Downloads" / "Pokémon Gold/Silber-Tools" and then finally, click on "Zeromap".

---

---

On another hand, you could also have noted, that it doesn't look anything like Goldmap at all... Especially since I showed off the connection-feature (the orange blocks the mouse is hoovering over) which Goldmap never had and never will have as fas as I'm concerned.

Well, how I did the 2 tileset-thing. First off, I can't draw for the sake of my life. If my life depended on my drawing skills, I would die instantly

---

---

hacked the palette-routine at 2:4000 to numbers higher than 7.

---

---

I hacked the routine at 0:2xxx thatl oads the tileset to vram (that's why you actually see some tiles before the second part of the tileset. The internal buffer is not big enough to handle decompressing tilesets and putting them into vram during periods of time with screen on (it's used for pkmn pics, so it can only be guaranteed to work for 31 tiles, tilesets are bigger though).

---

---

Then, I did some hacking on how the palettes are chosen, so sprites won't go into "hidden state" when these tiles are there.

---

---

Then I did some other funky stuff to support additional palettes that could change and different animation routines. I hacked it so it would read the two unused bytes from the tileset header to have custom palettes/animations/ whatever Oh yeah, I expanded the first of the two map headers to 12 bytes instead of 9, too, but that's besides the point since these bytes just do extra stuff for roof tops and crap.

---

---

Just keep calm. That's why it screws up.

---

---

It is not supposed to redraw the palettes of the older screen. Upon exit of the pokégear, the older screen is the pokegear, hence it screws up. Instead, you would want to draw the color for the current screen, whose attributes happen to always be where I said.

---

---

The last thing was unclear though, error on my part. I was thinking about signing the tiledata in the backup screen at 0xC3A0 to decide what vram tile to use. It's probably the best method, although I don't employ it myself.

---

---

My code, however doesn't put some kind of warning screen into the rom, it just doesn't work on a regular gb...

---

---

Something that could be fixed if I had the gfx and time to do it, which I don't and which was planned to be added upon finalization of the hack (which is far far from now, if ever).

---

---

Actually, I just remembered while typing this, we had a beta release, so I can actually share everything with you. I'm gonna look it up.
K, found it. Goto that funky German site I know you already bookmarked again, "Pokémon-Hacking" / "Downloads" / "Pokémon Hacks" / "Midnight Hack" The zip either contains a .ips or a .exe for a German Rom from the good set (abundant everywhere in the web). Patch it, be merry. It's actually pretty cool, though it's short.

---

---

Still, however, I don't share too much info on things. Especially, because it's not complete and not documented well enough for everybody to understand. Plus, it's in German... like you cared.

---

---

Oh yeah, you're like never online in AIM, or else I would've talked to you that way (and I tried)... However, for some reason or another I thought the pm-system was out of order due to bandwidth constraints for acmlm... Seems you proved me wrong there

Monty Mole's palette should be changed in-game. If you want to change how enemies appear in Lunar Magic open the 16x16 Editor and hit ctrl + shift + page down to open Sprite Map16 editing. Scroll down with the arrow keys until you see sprite graphics. You can change them like any other map16 pages and save your changes with ctrl + F9.
