skytemple / ppmdu

Combined code for several utilities used to export and import things to and from the "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon : Explorers of" games on the NDS.

SkyTemple

ROM hacking tool for Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky.

It is available for Linux, macOS and Windows.

It includes a Python library for editing the ROM through Python (skytemple-files) and a debugger / script editor is integrated into the UI of SkyTemple (skytemple-ssb-debugger). Inside the debugger you can edit the game's scripts via the programming language ExplorerScript.

Support and Features

See the Project Pokémon forums page.

Windows & macOS

To download SkyTemple for Windows and macOS head over to the download page or Project Pokémon.

If you want to set up SkyTemple for development, see the "BUILDING_WINDOWS.md" or "BUILDING_MACOS.md" file.

Linux

Flatpak

SkyTemple is distributed as a Flatpak on Flathub for all major Linux distributions.

This Flatpak contains everything needed to use all SkyTemple features.

Source repository for the Flatpak: https://github.com/flathub/org.skytemple.SkyTemple

Manual

The Linux version can be installed manually/"natively" via Pip.

For this Python 3.9+ must be installed and GTK+ 3 (which you most likely both have). Additionally GtkSourceView 4 is required (package gtksourceview4 on Arch and libgtksourceview-4-dev on Ubuntu).

Then install SkyTemple via pip:

pip install --upgrade skytemple[eventserver,discord]

You may need to run pip3 instead and/or need to update pip by running:

pip3 install --upgrade pip

After this, you can run skytemple to run it. If this doesn't work, you don't have ~/.local/bin in your PATH. Run ~/.local/bin/skytemple instead.

To be able to apply patches, you need to install armips. Sadly they don't provide builds. However for Arch Linux a version is available through the AUR.

If you want to set up SkyTemple for development, clone the repos and install in editable mode instead. See the steps 7 and onward in "BUILDING_WINDOWS.md".
