ROMhackers: Next Generation Inc.

Hello and welcome to the new world of ROMHacking!
I am Matt, in this place known as ROMHacker.

You maybe know my hack Pokémon: Next Generation.
Its thread had been closed but it's still under development.
But this thread isn't only about this project. It's about
making a hack that people will like. It's about people who will
join me. We can do amazing things, just need to want.
Okay, who will join me?

So, let's continue....

Projects

Hey, nice to see you again, Sugimori. Anyway, I am not posting to join, but to say feel free to use any my graphics if you want. They are all in the Stormbreaker Productions thread.

I'd gladly check over your Spelling and Grammar, I'm a big freak on that as you can tell if you look at some of my past posts xD.

[Rokuo_Mitarashi]

The whole gang's here! Everyboby wants to be apart of the creation of Pokemon: Next Generation! Matt, you've outdone youself this time!

[csyber]

ill be...assitant mapper!!

[Martin Yiu]

Okay people, I'll update the staff list and I'll also update the Projects list. So, we should start hinking about storyline of both hacks. Remember that they have to be different. I started with NG (Next Generation) :

It's 13 years after TR (Team Rocket), TM&A(Magma and Aqua) teamed up and captureds all powerful legendaries: TR - Three Legendary Birds, TM&A - Groudon, Kygore, Rayquaza. The hero saved the world again, but the region's living conditions worsened because of three birds, Groudon and Kygore's powers that were used to destroy the region. Now, after it's a little better, TR started to terrorise citizens of Kanto again, but with the new team: Team Lightning. It came from Johto and with three legendary dogs captured to definitely destroy Kanto. So, who wants to continue? :D

Then a new team came to catch all legendaries from the other teams! They are Team Victory! Jesse and James created Team Victory after being kicked out of TR(Team Rocket)! Team Magma and Team Aqua members soon was kicked out of their teams and joined Team Victory! With Jesse as their leader they soon capture Lugia, Ho-oh, Latias, Latios, Mew, Mewtwo, Jirachi, and Deoxys! They were unstopable until a group of trainers came!

[DoMyxZ]

Can I join? be a mapper ?
A map created by me , made in 5 min :P

[Ravena_Mitarashi]

Hello! Can I join? I want to be a scripter like my bro.! We make up stories and words all the time!

[Martin Yiu]

Okay, Ravena, you're in (I can't update the list now, I have no time) and Rokuo, the story is good, but I think that the team needs darker name. I hope you know what I mean by "darker". And you, DoMyxZ, are not in. It really looks as a in-a-5-minutes-made map. I need mappers who know how to make good maps,or at least have some potential. As I looked to that map, i heard as it yells: "I am poorly made! Help me!" Really. Think about a serious improvement. Maybe then. And if you ask why I took those above, it's because they really have potential.

[Rokuo_Mitarashi]

Cool! Brother and Sister Scripting Combo!
Alright Ray! Let's script!

How about "Team SHADE" or "Team ILLUSION"?

[Ravena_Mitarashi]

Cool! Brother and Sister Scripting Combo!
Alright Ray! Let's script!

Cooliees! We'll make the best story ever!

[narutoichooseyou]

[Martin Yiu]

Okay, thanks for all responses. Rokuo, I love the Team Shade name. Perfect! About scripting: I asked Christos for one script (he had great idea and wanted to help me), but all other - I'll ask you two. And narutoichooseyou, sorry, but I need to see a proof of work, until then... So, new ideas, anyone?

[Zak1392]

[Ravena_Mitarashi]

Hey Matt!! Rokuo won't be on for a while because he broke his arm!

[Martin Yiu]

Oh, that's bad. Okay, I hope he'll be okay soon. I hope all of members think so, we all will be waiting for the new, perfect story.

[Ravena_Mitarashi]

We have a part of the beginning ready!
I'll PM it to you!

[Martin Yiu]

Okay. I am preparing the GAMEFREAK text and logo change for NG. Also, the base ROM has changed to LeafGreen. Now, we should talk about the other project: Pokémon Iosern. And I thought about implementation of the same intro logo and text for all our hacks. What do you think?

[Dragoon1283]

Hey, ROMHacker. May I join this group? I am good at textediting and scripting.

[Martin Yiu]

Of course! Everyone is welcome! And big news: NG has its own thread! Take a look in Hacks Showcase. It looks like people remember it from its old times :D Great! So we can now do amazing things. I want to ask scripters for preparing their scripting skills. I'll need gym leader scripts very soon and appreciate any help. Thank you all! BTW in the NG thread you will find our RH NG intro (RomHackers Next Generation) so all of you haveyour very own official place in this project! Have fun!

Matt

[Rokuo_Mitarashi]

Hi Guys! How is it going?

l Matt l! Is the hack going good?

[Martin Yiu]

Yes, Rokuo. BTW I learned how to script some small events thanks to the tutorial over here so I can make bigger progress. Check the NG thread to see all new things. And for you all here, I have mapping of Pewter almost complete. Now, who wants to take new city, the Rainfall Town? Any maps appreciated. Idea: It has to be accessible by an event - like underwater or so, it will be fake, of course, so there is one thing that you must have there. A lake.

[Rokuo_Mitarashi]

Good to hear that!

Mapping huh? I don't know how to make maps, but I can find one.

[Aquila]

Skills: Tile editing, mapping and spriting

[Rokuo_Mitarashi]

Hmmm. Good. Good. I kinda like it.

Matt, what about you?

[- Chris Gold -]

can I join please i can edit the text!

[Martin Yiu]

Umm... I think that because of lack of interest this group's work has stopped. Everyone of you, thanks for cheers in NG. Hope you all will have hacks. Have fun,

Matt
Please Scizz or Jeremy, close this thread. Thanks!
