Attack Animation - Pokemon Gold

theoblivinator · 2013-01-01 00:20:50

I'm working on changing some of the attacks into different attacks, particularly I'm changing Spider Web to Bug Buzz.

I have the text changed, and the attack damage, accuracy, and effect changed, but I'm wondering how to give it a different attack animation. I'm thinking something like Supersonic's animation might be better suited for it.

Does anyone have some documentation for this or an offset to take a look at? Any help would be appreciated!

If you simply want to change the animation the attack uses (to another existing one), you can do that by editing the properties of the attack. Sounds like you may have been using that tool (Yomama's ?) for the job. Find the data with a hex editor instead and change the first byte the attack data pattern uses, that is reserved for animation.

I didn't know it was the first byte of the attack data that determined the attack animation. I simply changed the hex value A9 to 30 at offset 0x41F96 and it worked like I was hoping.

Thanks Miksy91.

I don't understand

What don't you understand?

If you want to change the animation data and not just the animation ID it calls, play around with the pointer array at 0xC900A in Pokemon Gold.

I haven't looked into it that much but it should allow you make your own custom animations.

Ah thanks for the tip. Yet another topic I'll have to explore sometime and mess around with.

The first byte of attack not only determines animation, for example if you give Leer animation of Stun Spore, its type during battle in the attack choice list will appear as "Grass".

Of course there's no reason the type string can't be generated using the type parameter in the move struct instead (the entire thing is loaded into ram as you select a move).

@kbm,may ask bro where to load that address?hex editor?tlp?what? Im searching that for a long long time. :)

Just load it in TLP, then convert the tiles you see to hexadecimal in your head and edit code in TLP.

You make me want to try this, just to see if I can.
