Pokemon Hokum Trilogy: Part One

[ashandmisty]

Pokemon: The Hokum Trilogy

Hack of:
Gold

Story
Part One
Kyle, a boy living in the region of Hokum is called the day he hits 10 to Proffessor Kip's Pokemon lab. Kip has a job for Kyle, he needs Kyle to deliver the Pokemon Eevee to Professor Oak in Pallet town. As Kyle makes his way to Pallet Town in the Kanto region he meets tough times, gym leaders, team rocket and familiar characters!!

Part Two
This may sound confusing but the events in Part Two happened before Part One, Part Two is just so you understand Part One abit more. Part Two is about Kyle's father Derek. Derek travelled across all the 8 islands of Hokum and defeated the 16 Gym Leaders in the Hokum Region. You play as him as you furfill his journey.

Part Three
This wont make much sence untill you complete Part One and Two but you have to travel to Hoenn to help Marc defeat the Nuron Rangers. This is the hardest in the series and will test your skills to the limits.

Features
- Cross traveling between Hokum, Kanto, Johto and (when i get permission) Rijon.
- New storyline
- New scripts
- New sprites
- Maps are overhauled
- 12 badges to collect
- Battle Halls
- Johto is complete (except Silver Cave and New Bark Town)
- Pokemon Centers have a third and (maybe) fourth floor!!

Battle Halls
There are 4 battle halls in the Johto region: Beginner, Ameteur, Pro and Expert. Battle Halls are buildings across the Johto region with Champions inside. You don't have to battle them but theyre good if you want to get noticed!!

This hack could (in my opinion) get very far.

Put your best in it, it looks awsome :D

why thank you!! Here's your reward: I've added Beta V0.1 download to first post!!

[Mitchman Is]

Yay so were does it go up to.

[ashandmisty]

Yay so were does it go up to.

It goes up to Cianwood City, the only errors are some text editing.

[Mitchman Is]

How many badges would that be?

[cpsp]

i quiet like this hack, even though i personally don't normally like g/s/c hacks.
Hope this goes well, put the town is the preview looks like vermillion from the top with added wood gate. Other than thta, this looks great!

[zel]

I see it finally made it to the Showcase, well, I'm happy for that. Hope you can improve more and more, and get good support.

Well, I'll be waiting for more news. Good luck!

[KuwabaraTheMan]

It goes up to Cianwood City, the only errors are some text editing.

Another error I noticed. In the first Pokemon Center, if you talk the right most person, the sprites all get messed up. It fixes if you open the menu or leave, though.

Aside from that, the only other issue I see is that there's very little Pokemon battles (I had to actually actively try to find random battles, and often couldn't), and the Pokemon levels are very high. So when I went into the first Battle Hall, I had my Level 6 Pokemon against a Level 27 one, and lost instantly.

But the actual idea behind the hack is really cool, and I like what you've done so far. I'm looking forward to seeing more.

[arceux]

I'm thrilled that someone has made another G/S/C hack. I have a ds Mass Media Player and can't find a Gameboy Advance emulator. I thought Prism was good but for some reason the text really distracted me. If you need help pn anything at all just ask me. By the way, I can help with mapping and stuff and if you need proof just follow the link below.

[shadowking93]

cool hack, the battle hall seems awesome. so, are the leaders in there count for badges(probably not) hope you get Rjion, that would seem awesome with a hack inside a hack! are gonna keep all of the gyms in each reigon? can we see some new sprites cuz i aint got computer memory to download. i just wanna see some more people. awesome hack, keep it up and maybe you get hack of year, month, week, or day! i'd like to see a great hack, as if it isn't already :D

[Woofer]

Wow. Just.. Wow. Something in the way this is hacked.. Attracts me like no other Hack.. Something in the way it's portrayed.

...

Beatles are super. Anyway, seriously, awesome looking start to this thread. I said in the HotW thread, and I meant it, this is one of the lone hacks here than really gets me excited about Pokemon, the way it did when I was younger, in the early 00's. Huge supporter here. Keep it up.

[Sk8er Prince]

Why there are so many high leveled trainer's pokemon?? The beiginner's battle hall should be just level 6-7 pokemons in there.

[Xtinction]

Looks nice n.n
I love G/S/C hacks.
Good luck with your hack.

[ashandmisty]

Thanks for all your feedback everyone!! The wild pokemon thing, well, in Goldmap it says that everything's fine but for some reason when playing the game, pokemon only come out at night. I thought i gave plenty of places to train anyway? Have you noticed the road leading to the left of Route 1? That leads to a bug infested area with nice lvl 2-7 pokemon!!

Anyway, the battle hall have very high levels because it may say "Beginner's rank" but really thats just saying "the easiest rank", there's more and stronger Battle Halls to come ;)

Can anyone direct me to a trainer battle modifier? If not, I'll have to go through the painful process of trial and error with HEX (I prefer Javascript of all computing languages, some people find HEX easier than others!!)

So...that's all for today!!

[Har D Har]

Hey, this looks pretty cool. I would really like to apply as a mapper. Here is some of my work:

However, even with lots of leveling up, I could only get my Pokemon to around Level 9-10 playing for awhile last night.

There should be trainers or some gradual increase, rather than instantly jumping to Pokemon in the high-20s/low-30s.

[Hat?]

I haven't played through much yet as I'm low on time, but I like what I've seen so far (nice tile hacks), I'll give it a proper play-through tomorrow.

Also Presea's Tools (http://crystalfallows.110mb.com/AutoIndex/index.php?dir=tools/GSC/) might have some useful stuff, TBC (Trainer Battle Customizer, though it's German I think, may be useful).
I might be on tomorrow afternoon to talk and stuff if you're online.

[arceux]

Yah heres the mapping example that I just PT'd you about

[!MaX!]

Yeah another gold hack!

So far it looks good!(and a little strange)

Although you still have to fix some bugs!

Eeerr just one question!

If I got this correct,your mission is to take the Eevee at Professor Oak!

But what will happen if Eevee is evolved or you lose it or...anything anyway that would get the eevee out of the party?

[ashandmisty]

That is something i've took to consideration but when you reach professer Oak he doesnt take the pokemon. Instead, he says the Eevee has grown to like you and you can keep it!! So its up to you what you do to it.

Update: I've built a bridge from Cianwood to Olivine. I may add some trainer battles there. I'm also adding some trainer battles to routes 4 & 5. I'm at school at the moment and for some stupid reason they blocked imagesites so ill decide whether you can become a mapper tonight Har D Har ;)

[!MaX!]

Aaaaa edit that man!

It's like a spoiler for what it will happen in the future plot!

Anyway It's a really good hack but....the first trainer at the battle hall had a Machoke 27 lvl....and when I got inside the first gym and faced the first trainer his pokemon were 30 lvl!O_O

Isn't it a little hard for starters?

Anyway I already have a party of 4 pokemon:pidgey,nidorina,pikachu and eevee at 16 lvls, so I think that after a few hours of training I will be able to beat them!

Just something I noticed:

I'm not sure if you put it there on purpose but the fisherman inside that "cave-house" gives you a super rod!

Isn't it a little too soon for that?

P.S.Sorry for my bad english!

No need to be sorry, your english is fine!! I was originally going to block that cave off, the warp data isnt finished yet!! The fisherman's house should be in Vermillion, my mistake!!

Har D Har welcome to the team!! I loved your map!! Now, I need some scripters URGENTLY, anyone want to step forward?

[Har D Har]

Thank you! Well, I am ready to be PMed my assignments.

[Pinky Diaper]

I like this hack, it has a nice feeling to it. The maps are a bit to plain but I love a G/S hack, good luck. ^^

btw none of those tools work because my rom is a different language and i dont speak german.

[cooley]

Finally, another Guy that knows how to script!
or do you?

Well, I'm not saying I like gold hacks, you've probably heard it before so yeah...but I do like them.
I wee that you've made new tiles they're Pretty and Go with the hack.

Well, If you need an help, there's help available from gold hacking experts!

Unfortunatley i dont know how to script but i plan to learn from a tutorial if someone could point me in the right direction. I know how to advance hack but i want a challenge, advance hacks are sooo boring to make (no offence).

[zel]

cooley (and Skeetendo in his next post) explained how you could script in Gold, it's in the Documents/Tutorials. So, I hope you manage to learn to script, because as always, scripts are what make new events happen, and games become more interesting ;)

Um, where? I dont see any tutorials on Gold scripting there!! Is gold scripting similar to advance scripting (if it is then ill be ok with it), if not, this has gone to the dumps...

[Hat?]

Here (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=120374) is the scripting tutorial for Gold by Cooley, also if any of the tools use configuration files like *.ini then you can just change any different locations or else hack the executable like Skeetendo did with AGIXP.

[IIMarckus]

Here's another scripting tutorial that I find very useful. (http://acmlm.kafuka.org/archive3/thread.php?pid=179435&r=1#179435) (Just scroll down a paragraph or two, not all of it is relevant to scripting)

[ashandmisty]

I think I've got the hang of it!! Um, is there a movement table anywhere? I dont think Cooley covers movements...

EDIT: I've got some problems guys. I tried to make the fatman in Totum city say "Hello" but when i press a on him the emulator crashes, what have i done wrong? I followed the tutorial perfectly!! I hate scripting...

EDIT2: Found the problem, Translhextion isnt saving it properly, can someone give me a HEX editor that actually saves my work please? I've always had this trouble with HEX editors even on my other computer, why arent they saving when i click the save button?

[IIMarckus]

Translhextion has always saved normally in my experience. Would you mind posting an IPS of the crashing ROM?

[thethethethe]

This might sound like a stupid comment, but is the rom on "read-only"? I've done that before, and it drove me crazy trying to find out why my hex editor wasn't saving.

[ashandmisty]

This might sound like a stupid comment, but is the rom on "read-only"? I've done that before, and it drove me crazy trying to find out why my hex editor wasn't saving.

I use XVI23 now (just as easy), although for some reason my script isnt working. Here is an extract from address $1225A0 :

http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/1076/uploadnownn9.jpg
The script is supposed to make the person look left, right, up, down after the massage is said but i keep getting emu crashes.

P.S. what Hexidecimal creates a new line? I know 7F creates a space.

[IIMarckus]

For newlines, use 4F on the top line and 51 on the bottom line.

I tested out both scripts on a clean ROM and they worked fine. Are you sure your pointers are correct? What are you using to change the pointers?

[ashandmisty]

Okay, im going to make the script again and see if it works. I've followed Cooley's tutorial and the "Hello!" worked fine.

EDIT: Didnt work and im now in a frustrated mood.

(Brief swearing was here but i decided to take it out)

[ashandmisty]

Well? Does anyone know what i should do?

[IIMarckus]

Try the script one more time, and if it doesn't work send me the IPS. Both scripts in the screenshot you posted work fine, so the problem is probably with the pointers or script calls.

I'm at school at the moment, when i get home ill send you the address of where the script starts and i'll tell what i put in the Text block, text bank places.

[ashandmisty]

Soz for triple post but i have updates. I've finished mapping the exterior of Olivine, Goldenrod and Ecruteak. Made some broken roof tiles for Burnt Tower too.

[ashandmisty]

I've finished the text editing in Olivine and moving onto the routes and Ecruteak. Screens coming soon!! Also, im making more tweaks to the tileset!!

[ExtremeFlyer]

this looks great. got me really interested. kutgw

[himowa]

I'm loving this, there needs to be more color hacks in my opinion.
Looking forward to playing! <33

[zel]

Oh right, tweaks on the tileset. It's always interesting to hear that, 'cause I like to see changes in the graphical part. Well, I'll be waiting for those promised updates!

[ashandmisty]

I've added the screenshots to the first post. Yes, i know the bottom left tile of the rocks has a pixel out of place, its fixed.

[Haruki Hanai]

Interesting to see you're experimenting with tiles a fair bit. Would it be ill for me to assume all houses will have arc-shaped doors, or will there be variations?

[Xiros]

Well, the hack is looking good. I like the mapping and the tiles. I think u should change palettes.
Hope u can learn how to script soon, it isn't so difficult so all you need is just to try.
Good luck!

[ashandmisty]

Interesting to see you're experimenting with tiles a fair bit. Would it be ill for me to assume all houses will have arc-shaped doors, or will there be variations?

The goldenrod city tileset is untouched so if i ever need it i will use it. Btw, the japanese style house doors are unchanged.

Xiros = It's not difficult to script, i know how to do it fully (i made a script that worked on the fat guy) its's just that particular script wont work for me lol.

[zel]

Checked the new tiles you made, and I like the new doors, and the trees now look more tree-istic :P
The only thing I may not like that much are the borders of the rocky parts (which I think are also shared with the borders of watery zones), making it as a straight line takes some of the realism the original tile had (deforming it would be a better thing), anyway, that's just my opinion, as I always say ^o^

[Mr. Magius]

This hack is really good! I like how you stuck with the feel of Gold.
The trees are very good and all the other tiles. I don't like the rocks, though...
Hope for some updates, "ashandmisty"...

Keep up the good work!

[ashandmisty]

I haven't been working on this hack for some time now, i've been busy revising for EOY exams. I'm also in the making of my own full 3d MMORPG called Age of Time: Legends (website and details: Clicky (http://Vampiro.co.nr)).

I am starting work on this hack again. I'm also having a competition, Prize is being in my Game as part of the Elite Four!! (yay!) To win, simply tell me what type of personality you have, send a picture of your trainer sprite (obviously not yourself) and what Pokemon you like. The most fitting shall be chosen by me!!

[Mitchman Is]

Oh do we have to send a sprite. Now you ruined all the fun and spriters only will get the chance. If you can make the sprite that would be better. You know what. What the hack Ill sign up anyway.
Personality: Mean and caring!
Fave pokmon: Ampharos.

[Raiph]

I'd make a good E4 Challenge.


Personality: Cold and antisocial
Favorite Pokemon: Espeon
Favorite Pokemon Type: Psychic

[chibo_wolf]

wow a gold hack
good luck on your hack

[ashandmisty]

Raiph and Darkcookie's applications accepted!!

[Mitchman Is]

Yes! Also um should I post my team or no? Im working on a sprite but I think it sucks.

[Raiph]

Omg thanks so much ashandmisty this means alot! And if you need a team for me 2 choose i'll tell you



1st poke: Alakazam
2nd poke: Sneasel
3rd poke: Arcanine
4th poke: Houndoom
5th poke: Espeon

EDIT: Also working on a sprite but i dunno if it'll be good.

[Mitchman Is]

Oh um my team I forgot. Ok its goin to be an electric/water team to give it an edge:
Feraligatr(lvl 45)
Lanturn(lvl 45)
Gyarados(lvl 47)
Electabuzz(lvl 47)
Ampharos(lvl 50)

[Raiph]

I Changed my team around so it would make more of a challenge.

[zel]

So, I see you finally managed to have some time to keep up with HT. Well, hope you manage to show some new events soon, just to see how you are doing with the "scripting learnage" ;P

But... Thinking about the E4 right now isnt a bit too ahead? O_o

[Raiph]

True, but i guess he plans ahead? O.o

[ashandmisty]

I do plan ahead. I have been talking to CBM about how i would go about adding extra maps.

[Raiph]

Well that's pretty good that ur able 2 think and plan ahead. Your doing great and take ur time on it.

[ashandmisty]

Well that's pretty good that ur able 2 think and plan ahead. Your doing great and take ur time on it.

I'm never giving up on this even though my exams have started XP

French, Maths and Geography exams in one day...

Anyway, i'm still stuck on scripting but i dont want to put you off my hack.

[ratchet5]

lol, the character looks like alfalfa from the little rascals.
nice game though
