Yours truly (Kawa) joked that it'd be simpler to just write a whole new engine from scratch. This was at the time considered impossible by scripting alone, and would require extensive assembly-level hacks. It all started when MajinBluedragon (aka Keitaro) wanted to make a ROM hack of Pokémon Ruby that added, among other things, a day/night cycle like in Pokémon Gold/Silver on the GameBoy Color. It runs on the same system as the original - the GameBoy Advance. With the functionality out of the way, let's put this tool to use!įirst, if we move over to the Patchers and Expanders tab, there will be a button that says "Pokemon Adder." Click on it, and we'll be treated to the screen below.OpenPoké was an attempt to rewrite the Pokémon engine as seen in Poké Fire Red from scratch a game engine recreation. NOTE: Upon opening this recently, the program froze and I had to close PGE entirely.The user can edit the various categories Pokemon are sorted by in the Pokedex. Pokedex List Editor: A feature that takes quite a while to open.In Pokemon FireRed, there are nine total.
Trade Editor: Edits the Pokemon the player can give/receive in various Pokemon trades across the game.Pokemon can be moved to other habitats, placed in multiple, and/or removed outright from areas. Habitat Editor (FR/LG): The user can edit the various habitats Pokemon are found in.Pokedex Data Editor: Allows for editing and rewriting various Pokedex descriptions and data for Pokemon.Ability Editor: Similar functionality as Attack Editor but for unique Pokemon abilities instead.Attack Editor: Allows for editing the stats, descriptions, and effects of Pokemon attacks and skills.This includes the Pokemon's base stats, sprites and colors, evolutionary lines, learnable attacks, Pokedex data, and "cry" (the sound file that plays when selecting the Pokemon). Pokemon Editor: A very hefty feature that allows the user to edit the game's Pokemon in a number of ways.This does not impact where they appear in the game's world. Pokedex Order Editor: Exactly what the name says this allows the user to edit where each Pokemon appears in the game's Hoenn and National Pokedex.Move Tutor Editor: This will edit the list of moves that the Move Tutor NPC can choose to teach to the player's Pokemon.I will not be using all of these throughout the blog (I cannot use any editors that correlate to Pokemon games I am not using, for example), but here is the rundown of most of PGE's features: With that out of the way, I'll explain the various functions of PGE's internal programs. Be sure you create the correct file path to the external tool. This is how the "Add or Remove Programs" screen looks. These can be used to allocate more room in the file so hackers can add more content to the game rather than just editing already existing content. Patchers and Expanders: This section includes installations that provide an "update" to the ROM file.Click on "Settings" at the top and select "Add or Remove Programs." From there, you can enter the name of the program you'll be adding and the file path for it. If you've downloaded the tools I listed in the previous blog post, you can add them to this tab.External Programs: This section is used for ROM hacking tools that we can configure to open with PGE.Internal Programs: These are functions that PGE comes with and require no extra set-up to handle or use.To begin, let's examine the different tabs we have on the screen: A similar situation happened to me when I first tried using this program, and I had to find a ROM from another source. NOTE: If you see an error upon loading the ROM, then there is likely a problem with the ROM file you are trying to use. Simply click the big button that says "Load ROM" and select the. Now, before the tool can actually be used, a ROM must be loaded with it. This is how the screen should look upon initial startup. Once downloaded, extract the contents of the.

I will be using this tool often throughout the blog, so, if you wish to follow along, be sure to download it from the above hyperlink. The tool was last updated on May 13, 2017.
