# Pokémon Emerald
|
|
|
|
This is a fork of the [matching decompilation](https://github.com/pret/pokeemerald) at [PRET](https://github.com/pret).
|
|
|
|
This fork tries to maintain vanilla compatibility whenever possible. It doesn't increase the size of any save data structure or the object event structure.
|
|
|
|
There are several branches, each with one main feature (and sometimes some extra stuff):
|
|
|
|
**followers** branch:
|
|
* [HGSS-style pokémon followers](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Walking_Pok%C3%A9mon#Pok.C3.A9mon_HeartGold_and_SoulSilver) for all 386 pokémon, including emotes, the 28 Unown forms and a majority of follower messages.
|
|
* Dynamic overworld palettes & reflections compatible with vanilla berry trees.
|
|
* PID (but not legitimacy) preserving Pokémon nature-changing function
|
|
* Function to detect modern emulators/GBA hardware.
|
|
|
|
> Note: Unless you have a specific need for it, you should probably use `followers-expanded-id` over this.
|
|
|
|
**icons** branch:
|
|
* Everything from the **followers** branch.
|
|
* All pokemon icons updated to Gen 6, based on [this repo](https://github.com/msikma/pokesprite/tree/master/icons/pokemon/regular)
|
|
* This includes compatibility with the PC, trade, contests, mail, Battle Dome. Examples:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Icons share palettes with front sprites, meaning that shiny pokemon will also have shiny icons!
|
|
|
|
**lighting** branch:
|
|
* Everything from the **followers** branch.
|
|
* Day/night shading compatible with weather.
|
|
* GSC-style window lights.
|
|
* WIP interframe-blended lamp lights at night, i.e in Rustboro.
|
|
* HGSS-style alpha-blended shadows for object events.
|
|
|
|
**just-lighting** branch:
|
|
* `lighting-expanded-id` but with following pokémon code & assets completely removed. (This allows for more than 255 OW graphics)
|
|
* Saves with following pokémon can safely be loaded.
|
|
|
|
**followers-expanded-id** branch:
|
|
* Like `followers`, but includes expands OW graphicsIds to 16-bits
|
|
in a backwards compatible way
|
|
* Includes support for compressed OW graphics
|
|
|
|
Additional branches to mention:
|
|
|
|
* `lighting-expanded-id` - like the above but for `lighting`.

## FAQ
|
|
### `(followers*)` Q: Where are the config settings?
|
|
A: Configuration for the follower system is mostly in [event_objects.h](include/constants/event_objects.h):
|
|
```c
|
|
// If true, follower pokemon will bob up and down
|
|
// during their idle & walking animations
|
|
#define OW_MON_BOBBING TRUE
|
|
|
|
// If true, adds a small amount of overhead
|
|
// to OW code so that large (48x48, 64x64) OWs
|
|
// will display correctly under bridges, etc.
|
|
#define LARGE_OW_SUPPORT TRUE
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `(lighting)` Q: How do I mark certain colors in a palette as light-blended?
|
|
A: Create a `.pla` file in the same folder as the `.pal` with the same name.
|
|
|
|
In this file you can enter color indices [0,15]
|
|
on separate lines to mark those colors as being light-blended, i.e:
|
|
|
|
`06.pla:`
|
|
```
|
|

```
|
|
|
|
You might have to `make mostlyclean` or change the `.pal` file to pick up the changes.
