How to Use Nameless Sprite Editor Classic 12 to Edit Sprites in Gen III GBA Games
If you are a fan of Pokemon ROM hacking, you might be familiar with Nameless Sprite Editor (NSE), a tool that allows you to edit sprites in Gen III GBA games such as FireRed, LeafGreen, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. NSE is a powerful and easy-to-use program that lets you change the appearance of Pokemon, trainers, items, tiles and more. However, NSE has not been updated since 2012, and the original developer has abandoned the project. Fortunately, there is a fork of NSE called Nameless Sprite Editor Classic 12 (NSE C12) that fixes some bugs and adds some features to the original version.


In this article, we will show you how to download and use NSE C12 to edit sprites in your favorite Gen III GBA games. You will need a Windows PC, a GBA emulator, a ROM file of the game you want to hack, and NSE C12 itself. Follow these steps to get started:

Download Zip https://jfilte.com/2wJJJa







Download NSE C12 from this link. This is the latest and final version of NSE C12, as the Codeplex archive where it was stored is set to shut down in July of 2021[^1^]. Extract the zip file to a folder of your choice.
Open NSE C12.exe and click on File > Open. Browse to the folder where you have your ROM file and select it. NSE C12 will load the ROM and display its information on the left panel.
Click on Tools > Sprite Editor. A new window will open with a list of sprite categories on the left side. You can choose from Pokemon Front Sprites, Pokemon Back Sprites, Trainer Sprites, Item Sprites, Tileset Sprites and more. Click on the category you want to edit and then select a specific sprite from the drop-down menu on the right side. You will see the sprite image on the center panel.
To edit the sprite image, you can use the tools on the bottom panel. You can zoom in or out, change the palette colors, flip or rotate the sprite, copy or paste parts of the image, and more. You can also import or export sprites from other files using the buttons on the top panel.
When you are done editing the sprite image, click on Save Changes to apply them to the ROM file. You can also click on Test Sprite to see how it looks in-game using your GBA emulator.
Repeat steps 3-5 for any other sprites you want to edit. When you are finished, close NSE C12 and enjoy your hacked game!

NSE C12 is a great tool for sprite editing in Gen III GBA games. It is easy to use and has many features that make it superior to the original NSE. However, it is not perfect and may have some bugs or limitations. For example, it may not work with some ROM hacks that have modified sprites or offsets. It may also crash or corrupt your ROM file if you make too many changes or save too often. Therefore, it is always recommended to backup your ROM file before using NSE C12 or any other hacking tool.


We hope this article was helpful for you and that you have fun editing sprites with NSE C12. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to leave a comment below or visit this thread on PokeCommunity[^2^], where you can find more information and support about NSE C12.
