Perhaps even the ability to change the palletes, or import and export graphics without having to draw them on MS paint then re-draw them on a tile editor........

Works like a charm!   ☺

Good job mate! Very handy program.

Nice map dude. it's cool having some maps not directly connected, not something you see often.

Nice map pf West Suden Miksy! Will the region map appear in the updated Beta 2 of Dark Future? I mean the changed version of the map you made since you said you would change it in the post you posted the map on.

cool, does anybody know how to change what different maps like to ? for example, new bark town - route 29 - cherrygrove city

does anybody know how to change it so its just new bark - cherrygrove for example ?

Not to get off-topic, but connection data is a pain. I've read several documents and still have trouble with it. 

Yeah, when MeanMrMofo translated it into English, he slacked pretty hard on some of the pages. He didn't even change it to read Wild Pokemon tables from the english locations.

My guess is that he didn’t have the source code, so he just went through and changed the ASCII in a hex editor, without affecting any code or offsets.

OT: This is why I don’t like the common atmosphere of closed‐source VB tools in ROM hacking—if someone wants to improve the tool or make it work in another language or another ROM (like Crystal), it’s unreasonably difficult. Better to release the source code with everything.

I'm sure that's what Mustard did, just change it in a hex editor.

For me, the only reason I write mine in Visual Basic is because that's the only language I'm fluent enough in to write programs with, although I would like to learn a better cross-platform compatible language at some point and re-release tools with it. I should have released the source with my programs though as I have accidentally lost the code for some of the editors so updating them would be difficult even for me. Although the source would always be available if one asked for it. Open source is definitely the way to go.

Heh, well there goes my next program idea  :P (Though I might make one too for cross-platform usage)

Anyways, it's probably completely different in VB, but the way it's done in Freepascal is, you tell the variable that the file stream is stored in (In my programs, Rom), and tell it to position itself at the beginning of where you want to write the data (Rom.Position := Location). You then have to use the write procedure, by telling it what variable to write from, and how long  to write (Rom.Write(MapData,SizeOf(MapData))). However, this is only writing the file in RAM. To save it, you have to use SaveToFile to write it to disk (Rom.SaveToFile(FileName)).

A quick search shows VB to be similar. Here should help you out.

Lack of R/B/Y tools doesn't annoy me too much for three reason: first, if we would have as much tools as 3rd gen, we'd become like those who only use tools and don't know what are doing; second reason, 1st gen hacks would become banal and boring like most of 3rd gen ones (not that some of those aren't good, but are really few, in my opinion). And third reason: who needs more tools, when all you have hexeditors, tile editors (that btw allows you to edit tileset), and a map editor (just because editing one block at time is a colossal waste of time!). And don't forget we're lucky to have almost every offset documented by our predecessors (the road now is almost completely paved).

Returning intopic, Harrison: i don't know your programming code, but does freepascal have GUI objects like pictureboxes, and stuff similar to visualbasic? because i made an array of pictures for each tile of the map (320 in total!!) and i was wondering if there's a smarter method to build the townmap..? Perhaps you haven't this problem since townmap in gsc isn't compressed with RLE, right?
