Difficulty adding new features to hack

NobodySociety · 2018-08-04 01:11:07

Hello! I'm trying to port the yellow events for the starter pokemon over to red. I was able to accomplish this on the current pokered, but i recently switched the base to Drenn1's full color hack, and when trying to port the same events i get an error :

ERROR: main.asm(344) -> scripts/vermilioncity.asm(264) -> .func_f1a0f(-1):
Macro '.func_f1a0f' not defined
make: *** [Makefile:37: main_red.o] Error 5

I'm not entirely certain how to define the macro. I'm very new to rom hacking.

That is a bit of a misleading error message from rgbds when you reference a label that doesn't exist. That isn't supposed to be a macro, but when you reference a label that doesn't exist, rgbds tries to interpret it as a macro.

Take another look at the original scripts/vermilioncity.asm and scripts/vermilioncity2.asm from pokeyellow:
https://github.com/pret/pokeyellow/blob … oncity.asm
https://github.com/pret/pokeyellow/blob … ncity2.asm

And make sure all of your labels on routines match your labels you use to reference those routines.

After going over each script, both mine and the two from pokeyellow, i still get the same error. Ive tried renaming it to match what was in yellow, I tried creating two separate scripts and it still gives me the same error. Here is the code:

VermilionCityText15:
TX_ASM
callba .func_f1a0f
jp TextScriptEnd

.func_f1a0f:
ld a, [wPlayerStarter]
cp SQUIRTLE
jr z, .starter_squirtle
CheckEvent EVENT_GOT_SQUIRTLE_FROM_OFFICER_JENNY
jr nz, .asm_f1a69
ld a, [wObtainedBadges]
bit 2, a ; THUNDERBADGE
jr nz, .asm_f1a24
ld hl, OfficerJennyText1
call PrintText
ret

EDIT:
Ok so i figured out what was wrong. When i was copying code over to the vermilioncity.asm some of the labels werent all the way aligned to the left. I backspaced everything so that the string had no empty space between it and the edge of the window. Thanks for the help, i appreciate it.
