Sorry I'm a bit late for the reply, but thanks! I hope to post a few more maps soon, and maybe get a preview patch out for the first bit of the hack a bit later. If people want to play an improved Fire Red, I'll give it to them.

MY REVIEW: Test map or not it's really good. Assuming the player's house is intended to be the bottom-left one, it gives the player an interesting path, they get to see the lab and the mart before leaving, and the surroundings are pretty interesting to look at. Also, I love love LOVE those...

Good map. The only thing I guess I can criticize is that it isn't clear which house belongs to the player. I like being able to differentiate (such as the player having a larger house). Really good, love that little simple cliff near the beginning. The only criticism I have for this is one is...

For the both of you, absolutely good points. I have another proposal that's been rattle around my mind, even if not hacking related. I'd either want to do this or a remade 2D engine in Java, fully open source. I'm not entirely sure which will benefit more, because a remade engine tends to...

(Before I begin: No, I am not asking for a handout...) From what I understand about hacking, one of the more difficult things to do when making a more advanced hack is to work around Game Freak's data. You know, Maps, Sprites, Scripts, etc... Now, I understand it would be a lot of work, but...
