Event Assembler Questions Thread

[ThatGuyDownTheStreet]

I found it when I searched _SETVAL 0x3, but it came up with 0x90D as the item ID rather than 0x9, is there a reason it was coded this way?(it's also the reason I couldn't find it before) but I also dont see anything that looks like a give item code, I'll post the label:

Check label47 -> See if you can find this:

_SETVAL 0x3 0x9

_GIVEITEMTO 0x1

If you do, replace 0x9 with whatever it is you want. That should do the trick.

[Soldier]

well, I can change the item given now! so thanks much for that, but I still don't see what would be the command to look for/write in for giving the item, if _SETVAL 0x3 is all I need then that's perfect and I'll be on my way, but if not, I'd like as much info as possible, because I looked at tutorials for this and MAYBE I skipped over something about it, but I remember the ITGC, ITGM, ITGV commands and in every instance they're supposed to show up, I can't seem to find them, so I'll post label47(where the code was located) here:

Hmm, that's weird. Your label47 looks different from mine. Which version of EA are you using? Also, the things you listed are for FE7. _SETVAL 0x3 0x9 should always be the thing, but I'll take a look into it.

[CT075]

iirc the labels aren't consistent between different disassemblies unless nl changed that

[Mrbrkill]

What is the code for a broken wall event. I can't find it in Arch's tutorial.

Also how do i make the last item droppable? Is it possible through event assembler.

Edited January 3, 2013 by Mrbrkill

[Nintenlord]

if you update it use this instead

//ORG 0xC9C9C8+(4*0x37) // not lowercase
//POIN TileChanges
EventPointerTable(0x37,TileChanges) // this does the same thing

ORG 0xDB0250

TileChanges:
TileMap(0x00,0x0E,0x01,0x03,0x03,Village1)
WORD 0xFF

Village1:
SHORT 0x0D04 0x0D08 0x0D0C 0x0D84 0x0D88 0x0D8C 0x0E04 0x0080 0x0E0C 

Still can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I think it's an EA error. :(

Cam's "fixed" version didn't fix everything:

#include EAstdlib.event

EventPointerTable(0x37,TileChanges)

ORG 0xDB0250
TileChanges:
TileMap(0x00,0x0E,0x01,0x03,0x03,Village1)
TileMapEnd

Village1:
SHORT 0x0D04 0x0D08 0x0D0C 0x0D84 0x0D88 0x0D8C 0x0E04 0x0080 0x0E0C 

What is the code for a broken wall event. I can't find it in Arch's tutorial.

There isn't one, they happen automatically.

Also how do i make the last item droppable? Is it possible through event assembler.

Depends on game, in FE8 you can do that in UNIT code like this:

UNIT Eirika Archer 0 Level(1,Ally,False) [1, 2] DropItem 0 0 0 [Rapier] NoAI

With FE6 and FE7, you'll need to use Character Editor Module.

iirc the labels aren't consistent between different disassemblies unless nl changed that

I wouldn't rely on it. Though this gives me an idea for a new feature...

Edited January 3, 2013 by Nintenlord

[Mrbrkill]

Then how do you change the wall's health? It's currently set to 100, and that's way to much.

[Nintenlord]

You can edit that in Chapter Data Editor.

So whenever I try to insert, I get these two errors popping up.

I tried doing a couple of things to fix it, and I found that it doesn't work with any comma at all, it just has the same error occuring but elsewhere. This error doesn't occur with previous versions though (Well, not on 8.2, I'm using 9.8 for the record), and spaces after the commas don't do anything to remedy this on 9.8. Also, the EAstdlib.event file is in the folder, as in, right next to Event Assembler but it's not noticing it. Does anyone know whats going on?

[Nintenlord]

Is the letter I or l? It should be an 'l', the name code from "Event Assembler Standard Library". And do try the latest version. The comma problems is caused by the macro's not being "unmacroed", because EAstdlib isn't found.

[charlie_]

It's an l. I got the same issue when updating it to 9.10, unfortunately.

[CT075]

it's "EAstdLIB.event" (except not capped)

you have EventPointerTable(0x06, Pointer) despite there being no such label in the code, the word you're looking for is Pointers

also don't assemble to 0x08DA0000 unless you want your ROM to be completely unplayable

The same script doesn't cause any problems with 9.10 on my PC, so it's something in your end. Try the same in some other folder.

*sighs* Still can't find out why the village won't close.

Hopefully, someone can find out if I did something wrong or not.

Here's the map changes:

Alright, then. What should I put it to?

[Primefusion]

You don't need to add 0x800000 to the offset (That's just a Nightmare thing). 0xCE2114 will do.

[ThisProfileNoLongerUsed]

It worked!!! That was the problem!

Of course, I now have another problem, though...

[Nintenlord]

It's pretty obvious, you don't have a gate there in the picture so you don't have a gate there in the code. The macro:

TileMap(0x00,0x0F,0x03,0x01,0x01,VillageGate)

means that the change is size 1x1 (as village gates should be), but you have all 9 tiles of village pointed in VillageGate.

[CT075]

seize should use event ID 0x3

[Nintenlord]

In this case, it should work because he is manually pointing to Ending_event. As far as I know, 0x3 only causes the game to automatically go to Ending_event if no pointer is given to the Seize code. As far as I can see, there are no problems with your code, so you shouldn't be having any problems. Though:

Ballista_events:
BLST

[Mrbrkill]

Also how do you let the game know what character is your lord? I currently have a myrimdon as my "lord", but how can set him as it, or on the other hand is it possible to make it so that all my units have the ability to seize.

[Brood_Star]

I'm trying to disassemble something.

The pointer starts with 0x9 (it's actually 0x9240F34). When I plug the 240F34 offset into the Event Assembler it gives me the error offset is larger than size of file. Anyone know the problem?

EDIT: Well, I didn't figure out the problem but I found the secret item I was trying to disassemble for. Still useful if anyone knows I guess though.

Another question: is there a way to tell which maps have replaced which?? For example, I was disassembling Elibian Nights but after Chapter 5 I don't know what links to what.

0x09240F34 is a pointer to 0x01240F34, not 0x00240F34

if EA is telling you that it's not working, that's a sign that you shouldn't be disassembling the EN ROM :P

either way disassembling the EN ROM wouldn't help you a lot anyway since the hidden items were coded in via asm (i know this for a fact because the person who wrote that code was yours truly)

you can check what map replaces what by lookiing at the pointers in the event references and stuff
