so i can help with little things :P

Those screenshots look really good. The faces and the name of the person are done well.
Nice to see its being made with Sphere.
Good look on it, and I look foward to seeing more screenshots.

hey i like it. so whats this game. is it a mix of all those games. what story does it follow. who are the characters????
[_DarkDragon_]
November 17th, 2005, 07:06 AM
I'm thinking about making all charsets for each separate manga and anime person :S
As for the storyline we have to decide if it's a mix or a new one.

November 19th, 2005, 03:51 PM
Yes this game is either goin to b a mixture of all the games, or a seperate plot will b made. Hopefully there will b an update soon

Yeah, I'm just waiting for the movement to be working correctly (someone is making a system script for it) :P

Sorry to double post but we finally have a name for this game: Pokemon Chromatite.

By the way, you'd need permission from the artist that drew those facesets (from the message box screenshots) to use them in your game, and you'd have to give them credit if they did agree.

There will be all pokemon plus some extras we r makin. If there are ne good pokemon spriters wiv original ideas (no fusions) please post here with some of ur work
[_DarkDragon_]
November 19th, 2005, 05:31 PM
the credit is given in-game to www.pokesho.com website, it's all in japanese so I have no way to ask the for it, if they don't want me to use them they can tell me and I'll remove them, as far as I know up to now, the website translation I was able to make gave me information that I'm free to use any website contents as far as I give credit but maybe it translated wrong, if anyone here knows japanese or smth and would like to help us with contacting the guys at pokesho it would be good :)

It is infact stated on Pokesho that the contents on the site are free for use, with credit of course.

Because people don't want their work passed off by others nor stolen for that fact. When you use graphics that were not made by you, it's common courtesy and required that you give proper credit.

Then I see the translator did a good job XD

well technically theyre not YOUR graphics, Ive been in the music biz for almost 4 years now trademark infringment is something you dontwanna argue with me about, just listen, if they DO give you credit theyre being nice because they dont HAVE to
[_DarkDragon_]
November 20th, 2005, 03:18 PM
dude... what does music have to do with graphics? I mean even if you use Nintendo's graphics they were actually ripped by someone and that person had the work so you must give credit to both that personand nintendo, in this case I think the people at pokesho made the avatars, if they made them you must give them credit because otherwise you're just being a thief...
MasaXGPMat
November 20th, 2005, 03:24 PM
what dark dragon said
i never knew you could hear graphics :D
yer but seriously i had a friend who found the website and i told dark and me and dark found a lot of stuff there that were funny but anyway like i said music is nothing to do with graphics
[_DarkDragon_]
November 20th, 2005, 03:40 PM
besides, if you use someone elses music u also have to give them credit unless they say you don't...

The same laws apply, if its derived from another work in any way you cant claim it bottom line, if you use them without asking them youre not being a thief a thief is someone who takes something that belongs to someone else. In this case those graphics dont belong to anybody because the people that derived them cant claim them and the original author doesnt want them, this is one of the reasons why "fair use" was created
[_DarkDragon_]
November 20th, 2005, 08:14 PM
yes but people don#t ask for credit for making them, for example, if I rip emeralds graphics I won't claim credit for the graphics but credit for the ripping then the person who is using them has to credit nintendo for the graphics and me for ripping, that's what I meant, they can choose not to credit but it will look bad on their side :P
mattgcn
November 20th, 2005, 08:36 PM
Hey, Dark Dragon, would you like to write an article about your games for the fangame wiki? *points to sig* It'll be nice to have at least 10 games on it, and I'm asking the best ones I know (Then PT, haha)
(And yes, this message was copy and pasted. It's basically the same message to everyone whose game I like)
Also, since you seem to have many, make another about your project group names.
[_DarkDragon_]
November 20th, 2005, 08:46 PM
ok, I will write one about "The Spherians Project - Pokemon Chromatite" and another about "Pokemon Sphene Titanite" (which is a project only mine)

yes that is very true, by the way have I told you yet this game looks great? Well it does the dialog box looks really good, do you have manga facesets for all the characters?
[_DarkDragon_]
November 20th, 2005, 10:19 PM
I have the ones at pokesho, there are a lot of them but I am missing the charsets that go with the paceset for most of them so I might make my own chasets :P

November 21st, 2005, 11:20 AM
Just a few wee quick questions, how do I apply to be in the team?!
Is there any limits when using sphere?
What is the average amount of disk space needed when creating a massive game?
[_DarkDragon_]
November 21st, 2005, 05:00 PM
sphere doesn't take much more than 1MB, the space required for a big game just depends on the ammount of code, graphics, etc you include in the game. (our project so far doesn't go over 1MB when zipped :) )
to apply read the essay I wrote at the Member recruitment thread.
As for the limits... your imagination I think :)
with more or less patience you can get basically anything done, sphere also has connectivity support for online (which we will add as a room like the wireless room in FRLG where you can trade/battle, etc), you can run the game on real resolution (240x160) or 2x that or even full screen, all it requires is to have Open GL drivers which 96% of the graphics cards in the world support (if it is less than 8 years old I bet it does).
Sphere also has a nice way of getting the current time on your computer which is much easier to create a clock, and it takes less lines of JavaScript code to achieve the same as you do in Ruby :)
Waudby
November 21st, 2005, 05:33 PM
I agree, i used rmxp and ruby for a wile but u cannot achieve as much as in sphere. As for the project, i think its goin well hopefully we will have some more screens by the end of the week if not sooner.
Budgie_boy
November 22nd, 2005, 08:32 AM
Cool, mayb I will remake my game in sphere!
I will give it a read, anyway!!!!!!!!!!!:P
Ok can you link me to a few tutorials on sphere or is it just purely javascript?
(I've studied javascript for a good 5 years) Maybe I can help you guys more than ever!!!!:D
[_DarkDragon_]
November 22nd, 2005, 04:06 PM
would be good to have you on the team, it accepts all JavaScript functions, etc except the conditions that only apply to websites like ONCLICK, etc
As for tutorials:
First, read this:
http://www.spheredev.net/reference.php?sect=articles&act=view&id=20
Then read some of these for sphere itself:
http://www.spheredev.net
http://www.spheredev.net/reference.php?sect=tutorials

http://aegisknight.org/sphere
http://sphere.sourceforge.net/flik/docs
http://www.spheredev.net/forums
http://sphere.sourceforge.net/
And this for JavaScript coding:
http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp
also, register at the spheredev forums to ask for help :P (PS: If you need some scripts like tile by tile movement with working teleport and random movement, move, etc functions add me to msn: rpg_man@hotmail.com)
Budgie_boy
November 23rd, 2005, 08:51 AM
Well actually no, it should because my friend has made an application for sphere (yes I have a mate who has sphere), it uses some of the actions used 'only' in internet sites.
I have asked him to ask you to join the team as well, he is a university student studying programming (javascript) so I dunno, maybe he will be better to help you than myself!
[_DarkDragon_]
November 29th, 2005, 05:00 PM
oh well, I didn'T know that but I guess you'Re right, if using sphere connectivity functions you should be able to use the website conditions :)
now, on topic:
New stuff added to the game, Warping system now works (Teleport) perfectly while walking but not when running or bicycling (which I hope to solve tonight). Menu is working and the game can be played in 2x GBA size (explanation on how to will be included in the read me...whenever we release a demo). Tonight I don't have much school work so I will work on the jumping and grass animation system (already brainstorming footprint and reflection system). I started doing Hoenn, up to Route 102, you can see the screenshots at the Wiki (go to first page for link). When I finish tonight's stuff I'll post it there as well and here saying that it is in the Wiki :D

November 30th, 2005, 10:57 AM
I have major problems with the battle system, i TOTALLY don't like it, you are better off with the old style battles but with better background such as the RmXP backgrounds.
I know it's a bit more difficult to code, I've tried it a dozen times! but it is a much more enjoyable feel to play a pokemon game and get a pokemon styled battle system!
[_DarkDragon_]
November 30th, 2005, 03:47 PM
we are trying to be creative here, and so far you'Re the only one who doesn'T like it at all :S
(Maybe I should make a Poll :F)
Budgie_boy
November 30th, 2005, 05:40 PM
']we are trying to be creative here, and so far you'Re the only one who doesn'T like it at all :S
(Maybe I should make a Poll :F)
Yeah, I do apologise that I am being totally traditional here, I have dedicated most of my life (since 1998, when blue version first came out) to everything Pokémon, so yeah, it is a very original idea but in my personal opinion I don't don't like how the battle system is going. I am a traditionalist!
However, I have had a number of ideas since then:
That screen could be like an intro part of battles, then it goes to the "who versus who" screen (like in the elite four or in beauty contests).
Then it moves on to the classic battle screen with better backgrounds and stuff.
[_DarkDragon_]
November 30th, 2005, 06:52 PM
hum, we are talking about about up to 6x6 battles here (unofficial battles), you can't put 6 pokemon side to side on a normal battle system (in this one you could with a little bit of picture rearrangement XD ) but maybe I'll use other background for this typo of battle as I also don't like the tiles much as a background :x
btw, how are the charsets going? :)
DarkDoom3000
December 1st, 2005, 04:25 AM
wow 6 on 6 battles
its going to be a war lol !!
anyway I like the battle system because loads of other games are using the normal battlesystem if you use the normal it will be plain old...
using something new will catch peoples eye!
anyway good luck
Budgie_boy
December 1st, 2005, 08:15 AM
Well, I'll give them ALL once I have finished but my computer had around 26 trojan virus so I've wiped the whole computer and started again! :(
I've saved the charsets that I've done on floppy disk and am going to put them back on as soon as I get in from work tonight!:D
[_DarkDragon_]
December 1st, 2005, 04:19 PM
good luck :D
lol, someone actually thinks the Battle System is total crap XD
Budgie_boy
December 1st, 2005, 05:03 PM
I must be honest, the 6v6 battles seems like an interesting Idea!
It's like team rocket using all their pokemon to gang up on you and stuff like that, maybe it would be usefulll for that.
However trust me I have done a short survey with around 15 people I know and they say that the original was dull because it didn't feel like they were anywhere.
They liked my idea of the screen could be like an intro part of battles, then it going to the "who versus who" screen (like in the elite four or in beauty contests).
Then it moving on to the classic battle screen with better backgrounds and stuff. More of an area battle sorta thing, eg:
sea battles - Sea battle background
sea battle close to land - sea battle background with land in the distance
cave battle - cave battle background
[_DarkDragon_]
December 1st, 2005, 08:14 PM
well, I dunno, we will see, maybe I make both? :x
Anyways small update, I started making my custom tileset for the Demitri and Oregon regions, here's what I have so far (they are not made from scratch but various buildings merged together to make a new one and so on :) ):
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y118/rpg_man/tilessofar.png
ATTENTION: This tileset or any future versions of it are made just to show what you can expect, it is not to be used by anyone except the Team who is making the game unless I later say it can be used, for the time being it is a Pokemon Chromatite exclusive tileset. If I see it used anywhere else it will be as bad as sprite thievery.
DarkDoom3000
December 2nd, 2005, 07:07 PM
Nice
though they do look strange its good!
keep it up
[_DarkDragon_]
December 2nd, 2005, 08:24 PM
it's a whole new region you need new buildings :P
DarkDoom3000
December 2nd, 2005, 08:49 PM
yeah you gotta point
hoenn had diff buildings than Kanto(then again they had diff graphics)
[_DarkDragon_]
December 3rd, 2005, 11:23 AM
:P
Anyways, I was working on the game and came up with an idea, what about like when getting near water, if a pokemon on your team has surf then you can directly walk into the water and surf will be used, if a pokemon has cut you can walk on grass and the pokemon will cut the grass on the way so that you don't have to battle wild pokemon and so on? :D
Sorye HK
December 3rd, 2005, 01:01 PM
I think it's better to leave the player to decide whether or not you want to use certain HMs in certain situations. Otherwise, everytime you walk in to the grass you'll be cutting until you get out;;; However, auto-surf sounds alright. XD
-EDIT-
I just noticed the poll on the BS, and I personally think it looks nice. Reminds me of what DM tried to do once before. I'm looking forward to how the ending result, so good luck.
[_DarkDragon_]
December 3rd, 2005, 01:04 PM

You have an option to put it on or off :P

Some good news dark_dragon, I have nearly finished all those character sets you needed. There's only around 15 more to do, it took me FIVE 36 hour shifts to do all of them!
So please let me finish my game before XMAS and I'll let you have the charsets before the end of january.

It keeps showing the time like the pokegear in GSC does, expect more features for the menu such as:
- Weather forecast
- Day bar (shows u at what point in the day you are)
- Moon phases (will be needed to know when you can evolve a clefairy for example (some pokemon will evolve differently in this game than they do on the real games, you have to take your clefairy to mt.moon on full moon for it to evolve)).
- Maybe I'll put more things, but I'm running out of space in the menu screen :P

Awesome !!
Love the clock and all the ideas for the Poke Gear
Brillant work, Keep it up !
And Good Luck !
[_DarkDragon_]
December 20th, 2005, 06:39 PM
the reason why the windows clock says 30 seconds instead of 31 (like in the game) is because it crashed when I took the screen xD

Hey your game looks great. I hope your game grows to be the mostdownloaded game on the interweb.
On another note...
Great job on the menu work.

I've been recoding some parts so that I can put the options to work, I added all 20 RSE frames + the 8 FRLG frames and they will be available in the options, the following screens show the insert name screen, how the icon changes for each option (instead of having the arrow for all) in the menu and the last two screens show how the game accepts every frame (although I only show 2 here).
Here they go:

Good Luck + Keep up the Brillant work !! :D

[_DarkDragon_]
December 21st, 2005, 04:21 PM
uh. if u mean what is a laptop it is a portable computer. if you mean what is it that the laptop is gonna do, here it goes:
- Can listen to radio.
- Access a world map where u can zoom in to region map and zoom in even more to city map.
- Maybe a TV.
- Some mini games will be added later.

Ok, great stuff! Anyway, just to let the team know, I will have ALL sprites done in 2-4 weeks max.
I will also have them in two massive zip files:
One for battle sprites and (maybe) back sprites
One for charactersets and anything else you would like (eg. new tree designs and stuff like that)
BTW I made a couple new tile designs for everyone to use, which will be included in the zip file. :D

Wow cool maps!!
and nice new bark town are you going to have more than 1 region
well keep it up
[_DarkDragon_]
December 26th, 2005, 01:50 AM
We are gonna have all regions, depending on your choices you have different missions and it won#t get boring thanks to our random trainer generator you never get to battle the same trainer unless you want to, you wont have to follow an order of regions, you can travel to another one earlier and then come back, you have to collect badges in every region to compete in the leagues but there's no order of badges and you can get more than 8 (if you look at the anime Gary got 10 badges in Kanto while in the games you can only get 8), the rest of the plot is based on which side u take, being a pokemon thief, a pokemon trainer, a pokemon watcher, a pokemon researcher, a pokemon gym leader, etc.
--EDIT1--
been working on the Save/Load system, I'd say it's about 70% done :P

I'm happy to announce I managed to do the animations so now we have an arrow animation on every message. So here's what's new:
- Saving System: Now game is able to Save (just need to encrypt it so that people don't cheat)
- Animation System: Things like the arrow on the messages move.
Thanks to the animation system I can now start the intro and [New Game]/[Load Game] menu :P

Lol strangely enuf i used to as well! neways im not sure about the encription maybe we shud mke the game encripted and then after all the systems are finished give them a few basic maps and the script at a basic level so they have to customize and add extras they want.
So have the starter kit as a side project to chromatite!
dan48
December 31st, 2005, 06:04 PM

Not sure yet it may complicate things probably 2 v 2 battles will be on but im not sure yet! i think we will add tht in! We gna work on the hp bars and stuff so they suit the scene better!
[_DarkDragon_]
January 1st, 2006, 01:35 AM
6 vs 6 battles will be possible. As for Chromatite I think when we have the basic stuff ready I'll make a side project as a Starter Kit, besides we can't really encrypt the game cause Sphere doesn't allow that I think :)

January 1st, 2006, 03:40 AM
I think a starter kit would be a great idea. It will get more people involved with sphere, which would be a great learning experience.

would just like to tell you that I just solved another "problem" that was causing some bugs, now you are just allowed to open the menu when the hero is not moving which solved:
- If you were moving in a certain direction and you were to access the menu and then go back to the game the hero would keep going on that direction.
- if you were to access the menu while moving and then save the coordinates would be messed up and when you load it would be totally screwed xD

some more screens today, this time of Cherrygrove City:
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y118/rpg_man/cherrygrove.png
I was thinking of the following option for the beginning of training:
instead of going to the lab and getting the pokemon from the professor what happens is the following, you choose a city to start, you apparently don#t have any parents and you grew in the pokemon center so your adoptive mother is nurse joy of the town/city where you start (if there's no pokecenter you start in a normal house). Then nurse joy tells you it is time to get your first pokemon and she lets you borrow one and gives you a couple of pokeballs, then you leave and go to the nearest route and battle a wild pokemon, as soon as you capture it you will go back to the pokecenter, the one you borrowed will be returned and you can start your journey. If you loose you will be teleported to the pokecenter and be recharged with pokeballs xD

My pc Crashed again, I'm getting a new one pretty soon, still got your Charsets BTW, if you wait about a month (time to get a new PC and finish the Charsets) you'll get a ZIP file.
Also I have been known to do a few Midi's too, I use Guitar Pro 4. For my band I've written around 25 songs then tabbed them on guitar pro, which exports them as Midi's.
I'll let you have a few of the Pokémon midi's I have come up with if you want.
Maybe datriot and I could work together?
Below are two examples:

January 3rd, 2006, 11:11 AM

Well, it's up to datriot! :D
And those aren't anything compared to the Rock version of the 1960's Doctor Who theme tune I made!!!
Anyway, It's the least I can do for you guys! Since I lost around 8 of the final Charsets and Battle sprites!
Where did you get Guitar Pro 5, I've looked everywhere for it and don't want to pay again for an upgrade!
[_DarkDragon_]
January 3rd, 2006, 11:31 AM
I downloaded it off eMule but this might be against the rules to talk about here :P
Since I lost around 8 of the final Charsets and Battle sprites! Darn, so that's why it's gonna take another month. cause you said only one more week a couple of days ago, if you need help with the battle ones PM me as I suck with the charsets :)
--EDIT--
I was thinking of writting a tutorial on how to add new pokemon to Chromatite when the game is finished, here'S what it would have:
- How to add a new pokemon to the pokedex.
- How to make that pokemon appear on grass with random stats and inherit all the values already on the pokedex in addition to the ones that are exclusive of each pokemon.
- How to make it breedable + interchangable with other chromatite games.
yep, that's right. I will add a pokemon online battling +trading system later on in the game that will let players battle and trade between each other online. That feature will be built so that even if:
Player one has a new pokemon called "Kirolio" in his Chromatite version
Player two does not have that pokemon on his game.
All pokedex info on Kirolio is added to Player two's Chromatite game.
If they are battling the "seen" information about Kirolio will stay in the pokedex.
If they trade the "caught" information about Kirolio will be added to the pokedex and Kirolio will be added to your team with the same stats it had on the Player one's Chromatite version, from now on that pokemon will be available on your game only with you, you will not be able to get it on normal grass unless you code your game so that you can. But it will alway be with you and if you have a male and a female or only one and a ditto you can get more to trade with your friends, this way Chromatite's pokedex and list of pokemon will increase really fast as far as everyone trades around and people will always have new pokemon to get from their friends.
A tutorial on adding a new region and other stuff might be written later but for now the infinite pokemon factor is what I am more interested in.
P.S.: When the game has that feature make sure that whenever you make a new pokemon you get a good spriter to make the sprites, I would hate Chromatite to have pokemon badly sprited :x

I've got some battle style music that i've got at home, I'll post them when I can.
It's a mix between ff3 and pokémon battle songs.
The rhythm guitar bit is like:
e|--------------------|--------------------
b|--------------------|--------------------
g|--------------------|--------------------
d|-5-5-5-5-5-5-2-2-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-2-2-
a|-5-5-5-5-5-5-2-2-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-2-2-
e|-3-3-3-3-3-3-0-0-|-3-3-3-3-3-3-0-0- Then it repeats for a while.
[_DarkDragon_]
January 4th, 2006, 11:44 AM
I'll try and put that on guitar pro to see how it sounds like :P
Budgie_boy
January 4th, 2006, 11:54 AM
I can't remember if that's exactly it but it's close enough to that.
it's a 120tempo.
The main guitar bit is like the old style battle song.
[_DarkDragon_]
January 4th, 2006, 12:25 PM
ye, sounds cool. I am remixing the old RBY songs, they're coming out pretty cool, I'll post some later :)
Budgie_boy
January 4th, 2006, 12:39 PM
Try this then:
e|-----------------------
b|-----------------------
g|-9-9-9-9-*-9-9-9-9-*
d|-9-9-9-9-*-9-9-9-9-*
a|-7-7-7-7-*-7-7-7-7-*
e|-----------------------
* = space bar.
They are all quarter notes(example below):
7
7
5

This can be used in a battle scenario or something along those lines.

I fixed them! YAY! :D Well. I like the isometric house. But I suggest fixing the side windows. :P
[_DarkDragon_]
January 4th, 2006, 08:53 PM
what's wrong with them? I will do that later cause I noticed the house should be wider than it is. thx for fixing the links :P
--EDIT--
From now on I am accepting people to enter in the game as Gym leaders and Elite 4, the pokemon will be decided by me though, there's no predefined Type for each gym right now, so you people just sign in a form like this one:
Name:
Sprite:
Gym Type(s):
For elite 4
Name:
Pokemon Type(s):
I accept up to 2 types but something like grass and water is stupid cause only Ludicolo is Grass & Water (although we will have more in Chromatite), so unless you want only original pokemon don't pick grass and water because you will be using some Chromatite pokemon then.
Also if someone picks 2 types no one else can pick the same two. Please don't pick something that is very similar to something that is already taken.
Here's a list of Chromatite's STATUS types:
- Dark
- Shadow
- Neutral
- Shiny
- Light
Here's a list of Chromatite's Types:
- Gas
- Plastic
- Plasma
- Wood
- Virtual (like Porygon)
- Virus
- Extraterrestrial (yep, that's right)
There will be pratically any kind of combination of types (that includes things such as grass and fire) so feel free to pick what you want and I'll take care of the spriting.
That's it so far
Feel free to take any of the Chromatite or original types, up to 3 types (STATUS types being the 3rd one)
There's 16 gyms on my region + 4 elite 4 members and the champion (which no one can sign up for).
Datriot
January 4th, 2006, 10:02 PM
Yay! 3 types! I was doing that in my game too, I came up with the odd combination of Dragon/Fire/Flying. :P
Anyway, good stuff, extraterrestrial? Original XD

--EDIT--
@[NoLeAfCloVeR0987] (http://www.pokecommunity.com/member.php?u=18243) - I might release a small demo when I have the battle system ready but something will come earlier, which is the Beta 0.1 of the Sphere Pokemon Starter Kit
Budgie_boy
January 5th, 2006, 02:15 PM
Thanks, I'm going to expand on what I've done on that and make it a more orchestral remix maybe even better than a few other remixes I did (including "An Unintended Pain for Pleasure")

Yep my own ones, It's took me 3.75 painstakingly long hours do do them 100percent scratch!!!!!!! (Unless you count the shadows- they were C+P'd)
*Definately not stolen or anything from anyone*

--edit--
I've been recoloring some pokemon to make the shadow ones, they are in XD001 style, tell me what you think of them, I might change the white-ish color to something else cause I don't like that blue:

Neat screens. Can't wait to see more. Anyway, sorry for being dull, but what goes in those 6 boxes?
[_DarkDragon_]
January 8th, 2006, 01:15 AM
I guess that the icons of the pokemon in your team go in there.
halfling2
January 8th, 2006, 01:21 AM
Umm, I could also do some music (after I get a new computer and install Sibelius, which is awesome) and I also have a ton of sound effects on my keyboard that I could figure out how to upload onto the computer. It's OK if you don't need me because you already have at least two guys, because I could just help somone else. And if you accept don't expect to get things from me right away.

Hey these are nice. I really need someone to make me some shadow sprites. I'm also using shadow pokemon too. It'd be nice if you could do the hoenn ones. Cause those are the ones that I'm making shadows.
Waudby
January 8th, 2006, 08:55 AM
Yeah i figured if its not to hard to make the pokemon faces in the boxes it would just be a nice extra that on ur trainercard you have the faces of your pokemon in ur team at that time, so it keeps updating, it shudnt be to hard
!
Datriot
January 8th, 2006, 09:25 AM
Nice trainercard system so far, good work.
Waudby
January 8th, 2006, 09:55 AM
Cheers datriot! Dark we seriously need a intro and titlescreen sorted to really move on further, i can work around with some other small scripts like the trainer card changing, and maybe a clothes shop kinda thing but i may need to make a few different changes to the sprites!
[_DarkDragon_]
January 8th, 2006, 12:09 PM
I'll try and make the intro today, I'm really busy with school, I have to code a genetic algorithm based program for school and its due on the 13th, if I get to finish that I will do the rest, I have english oral exams coming up as well and other stuff.
Umm, I could also do some music (after I get a new computer and install Sibelius, which is awesome) and I also have a ton of sound effects on my keyboard that I could figure out how to upload onto the computer. It's OK if you don't need me because you already have at least two guys, because I could just help somone else. And if you accept don't expect to get things from me right away.
If I were to expect it right away I couldn't count on the rest of the team, take your time, as I take mine and the others take theirs. :) (and yes, I want you to help us)
@PokemonXP - I will be making all Shadows, including the Hoenn ones, so you will be able to use them whenever I finish them.

awesome screenies,
though im wondering if you select like 4 of 20 or something will the character change(appear older/younger???)
anyway it looks good keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[_DarkDragon_]
January 9th, 2006, 07:03 AM
I was thinking of doing that, but I'll have to sprite the trainers :(
Budgie_boy
January 9th, 2006, 08:21 AM
SInce I'm doing the overworlds shall I make them younger/older too?
BTW I have found That I already did some Battle and OW sprites of those characters you gave me DD!
[_DarkDragon_]
January 10th, 2006, 05:57 PM
:D, nah. Don't bother doing them older or younger, you are gonna have the default heros to play with and some additional ones, chromatite will have a tutorial telling you how to change the picture of your hero to whatever you want so we leave that to the people who play it :D
--EDIT--

This game is looking nice. I just got sphere and know pretty much nothing.
It's amazing for me to see people who can do stuff like this.
can I put the banner on my signature, or is it only for team members?
Also, those shadow pokémon are sweet.
[_DarkDragon_]
January 14th, 2006, 11:40 AM
thanks for the comments, the banner is for anyone who likes the game and wants to see it finished and good luck with learning sphere :)

Yeah, those maps...... I need to be more inventive with fusing buildings like that. I'm sure you left me off the list but I haven't done anything yet so I don't care. If I can fix my internet router, tape me playing certain sound effects and somehow post the sound on the web I could give you stuff.
[_DarkDragon_]
January 14th, 2006, 06:24 PM
