How to make a ROM Hack
by Faint Brushfire Wed Mar 12, 2008 6:32 pm
To make a basic ROM Hack you will need:
Advance Map (To edit the map look and scripts. http://am190.no-ip.info)
Advance Text (To edit what the people/signposts etc say, I advise you don't use, it can muck it up, so I'm not providing a link)
Advance Mart (To edit the prices of the Pokemon Mart, and what they sell in them. Same as A-Text above)
Any World Map Editor (So it will show up as your region. I currently don't have one, please say if you find one.)
IntroEd (Not really needed, but it changes what Pokemon Oak/Birch etc shows you at the start of the game. )
Any sprite editor (To edit the look of Sprites)
http://pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=85025 <-- Go here for MANY useful tools.
Also you will need:
Pokemon Gameboy Advance ROMS (I get mine from dashroms.com. I WILL NOT provide direct links to ROMs)
A Gameboy Advance Emulator (To play it on, I use Virtual Boy. I WILL NOT provide direct links to emulators)
Lunar IPS (Most people put their ROM Hacks in this file format)
That round about sums it up! I figured how to do it all by myself so I think you could to!
Also, could this be Sticked? I think it would be very intresting to see people making their on ROM Hacks.

Send you the text one? No, sorry no can do, I'm not going to provide download links here... I could be abeiding and abeting an illegal act if I did... well, I'm not saying you're going to sell you ROM Hack, but it's just to be on the safe side. The map one I know there are many useful tutorials on https://www.youtube.com just search "Advance Map Tutorial", hope that helped.
