http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/poke_story.png
Please note that this is still a story in concept.

Our hero, the one you will be playing, moves to a new country. At this point our hero is as follows. He or She is almost 18 and just finished school in his/her old home country. His/Her Father died last year trying to save some wild machop and machokes which where hurt by a avalanche of stones in the caves nearby their old home. Therefor, your mother does not want to live at that place anylonger, because she does not want you to get hurt. Instead, you move to the place where your mother was born. A little town called Dunning Dale. In this town Professor Oak was (by coincidence) placed this summer to help with the pokémon in that country. As he captured some pokémon, he would release them just before he went back to his hometown.
:chu: This is where you get your first Pokémon.

What you do not know is that you are living in one of the small towns hidden in the center of the mainland. One of the towns where Pokémon are allowed. In the kingdom you just moved too, Pokémon are strictly prohibitet and are all driven and put away to place where no people live. Why and when, you will learn along your Journey...
:snea: The main objective is, is to solve this Pokémon-disallowens in the kingdom

Hereby I include a list of important characters. To be filled.

The Main Hero
Okay, I guess this is pretty clear. This will be you, the player. As stated above, you are in the beginning almost 18 and... well... you will find out. I might include a (male and female) graphic later.

The Main Hero's Rival
Okay, this is not the contrary from what you choose as gender, neither will it be Ash or Ricky. This is a new rival you will met just close to your hometown... (No.. he is also not like ??? in Ruby/Sapphire from the Red/Blue Team...

Proffesor Oak
We all know proffesor Oak. I think he is one of the most coolest person in the Pokémon world (okay, except for Richie, He and Sparkie and Zippo where/are totally awesome!! XP). He will play a perfect role in the story, which I will not reveal/spoil.

I know I sould not show title screen, however, there is a story behind this. This titlescreen will show a pop-up (shown) when there are fonts installed. What is the point? Well, if the game finds out that your computer does not have the fonts, it automaticly installs the fonts, and shows this screen once. The next startup you won't see it. Also, the load is semi-transparant when there is nothing to load (duh).
The (sort-of) well known Intoduction 'help'. I intend to change the next, but it looks nice this way anyway.
Hey, looks who's there. Proffesor Oak with his (cough) original (cough) introduction.
This is the standard view without mapname display (good for cutscenes) Note, that picture is not an overlay of somesort. The maps 'Viewport' is just within this picture.
Again the Maps view, however, this time you can see that the map name (wrong in this case by the way ) is shown right there.
This is a new feature of the game. By entering a map you will most off the times be enlightend by this location popup. It shows the Area name, route you are on and last, but definitly not least the pokemon in this area. Will shown in full color when seen, sillhouet (black) if not seen, and with pokéball if captured.
Some same sort of Location pop-up, but now for a town. Wil lshow the name, then what Badge you can get. (if there is a Badge availeble, another window is shown with the Gymleaders sprite) and the route numbers from the connections to this town.
Load screen in progres.
Save screen in progres... :P
Working on the menu system!
This is my first Pokémon map. It shows you the (crappy) hero start town and a bit of the forest around it. I only found 2 mapping errors yet. (Both made on the map's edge, this is a compilation of 3 separated maps)

Other things I like to say...

Pokémon - Another World
by Me™; Last Update: 04 december 2006
will be update weekly

This game is made with the official version of RPG Maker XP
http://www.enterbrain.co.jp/tkool/RPG_XP/copy1.gif

[.:Sam:.]

The screenshots are good, the fact that you see the pokemon you will find in the route you are in is pretty cool, This looks like a good game.
Keep it up!

[Canine Munch]

I dunno if its just my Computer but when i click a screenshot it dosnt show the one it shows in the thumbnail

looks like a nice game in the progress

[LegosJedi]

I dunno if its just my Computer but when i click a screenshot it dosnt show the one it shows in the thumbnail
Yeah, that happened to me too.

Anyway, from what I've seen, it looks good! Keep up the good work.

[The Dash]

Yeah you need to fix the thumbnail - Picture link.
From what I can see this is very nice! It's good to see someone creating their own engines that look diffrent to the normal games.
Also I think that guy's name is Richie

[Avatar]

I've fixed the image linking so they match the proper thumbnails.

[Me™]

Thank you Avatar. I just saw it on another forum (dutch) where I posted this. Stupid :P. Either way, yes Dash, it was Richie, with Sparkie and Zippo (totally cute XP).

I just started with creating a sort of database with all data from all Pokemon. I just did the first 53 Pokemon (that's till Persian Ru/Sa/Go/Si/Re/Bl/Ye/Gre style) his name and base stat. After I did the base stats I need to also put in the other stats (weight, height, descriptions, moves availeble on what level, rates male and female) and the breeding stats (with what pokemon possible, the compatibility rate) and the egg_moves...

Wish me luck :P

[Krobelus]

Looks good, im also making a *coughsecretcough* game with rpgmaker XP, and if you want, we can discuss some stuff about the maker, or if you need any pointers, pm me, id be happy to help.

Good luck!

[Me™]

Soo.. I am working on th eload system. You can now finnaly have more then one save file on a computer. (note: not finished :P)

http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/thumbs/pokemon_titleload.png (http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/pokemon_titleload.png)

[Jirachi-Z]

Looks nice gonna keep my eye on this project

[LegosJedi]

You can now finnaly have more then one save file on a computer.
That's my fave feature :P. Nintendo needs to incorporate a feature like this.

[Me™]

I am still expermenting with the layout of the load system. Either way, I have finnaly inputed the first 251'pokemon their name and base stats. Going for the actual pokemon scripting soon. I just got the basics done :D

[Krobelus]

That's my fave feature :P. Nintendo needs to incorporate a feature like this.

I think Nintendo does that so that people will be more pushed into buying more copies of the game, and, what kind of game would it be, if you could save anytime, anywhere, and in different slots? Thats why you cant save all the time in Final Fantasy games unless promted to by a saving point.

Anyhoo, good luck with this, for I have seen some pokemon games using the same maker, and some didnt turn out too well, but good luck!

[Me™]

@Razmazter, Indeed. Now one family can not easily share the game. The game is so called personal, bound to the buyer. However, just a note, as I said unlimeted save files, I meant, that more players can play the game, however you are still limited to one save slot (this is not because I can't cript it, but because I still want the one slot limitation)

Also, just like in the 'real' Pokémon games you can not save while cutscenes are going on, or while in battle.

http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/thumbs/pokemon_titleload.png (http://www.letsshareit.net/files//73/Pokemon/pokemon_titleload.png) http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/thumbs/pokemon_titlesave.png (http://www.letsshareit.net/files//73/Pokemon/pokemon_titlesave.png)

1. Load Screen
2. Save Screen (Testing idea)

Btw, if you see a long horizontal window in the load screen, press F5, that is the old one.

[csyber]

nice this looks really cool

[Me™]

I made a new map (for the intro cutscene) and will be working on the weather + day night this evening. Also, I intentd to include a songtext thingie XP. There is a midid file of the pokemon title song in the intro. The text scrolls in the bottom so you can sing with it XP.

Okay, I have finnaly finished the first 251 their pokemon basestats and names...

[goku san]

another nice game......keep it up!!!

[Sudowieeedo]

this game is truely amazing, the screenshots look cool in my opinion.
i think you'll be able to finish this game,as seeming you're with scripting *cough* netplay plus *cough*

[Me™]

http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/thumbs/pokemon_menu.png (http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/pokemon_menu.png)

Working on the menu system... The screen tones to less colors, little bit graym the weather keeps playing on, aswell as the autotiles...

Edit:
http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/thumbs/pokemon_menuinit.png (http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/pokemon_menuinit.png)

Edit2:
I updated the screenie from above
http://www.letsshareit.net/files/73/Pokemon/pokemon_menuinit.png
Press F5 if you still see the old screenshot.

[tyl2704]

man looks good! can't wait for a demo!

[drem]

i looooove it !!! :)
i have a cool (non pixel art) tileset for pokémon (created by me) .
(if i can passe it for you with Messanger (LIVE)

[Krobelus]

Dont do it!! He will hack your msn!! O,,O (kidding!) Anyhoo, screenies look great! But one question, what do you use to make your game online with other people? It boggles my mind, o.0 unless your using something like MySql or something, but yea, tell me plz!

[Me™]

You can't just 'use' MySQL. I use a combination of Ruby (server application) and MySQL Database (DB Software)...

All scripted myself, off course. Then I used some WinAPI32 functions in RMXP to create a socket layer. Now, write me myself a Network class, conect and there you go.

[Krobelus]

Hmm...I think my brain blew up.. o.0 anyhoo, since your one of the few people who know what their doing, when I want a beta tester for my game, you want to be one? Just wondering, cuz I dont want just anyone, ehhe
:P

[Me™]

If you want me too.

So I just finished the Exit Game option (intregrated in the menu, I don't use Scene_End anymore)
I did integrate the actual saving in the menu, just not finished the display..

edit:

I won't bump until I got some new screenies, however some progress for the last few days:

I did set up the Pokemon Onject Setup functions, this includes methods for the IV's, DV's, Nature and PV. Also, I have made a method to calculate the expericne, catch_rate, did finish up the basic information and the base stats on the first 251 pokemon, this includes experience curves, did entered all the possible statussen and natures into the database and coded on the day night system (pretty right now :D)

[Sudowieeedo]

the multiple save is a good idea, and the screenshots of the save and load look outstanding!

do you need some help with formulas or any other script?
i almost finished all the formulas -> catch, exp, damage, multiply damage, and some more :)

i'm about to script a storage box, but i'm affraid i don't have the images :(
(if anyone has those images, please pm them to me, thanks)

[DiamondDust]

Good luck with this game, i see what the mystery behind the title screen is. I wouldn't want to spoil it for the people who have not. Keeping an eye for this and have fun making this game and the other people who is supporting/helping this game.

[Me™]

Hehe, thank you. Either way, I have done some enourmous database updates, but to bad not much game design this time. Sorry guys!

[Ruyin]

Pretty good screenshots, can't wait for demo.

[brendan mc]

cool game dude looking very cool(**,)

[Ruyin]

Looking pretty good! Hope it gets finished.
