sorry, I haven't been online for at least 4 months (full time job takes up most of my time these days), but if Maruno can still use them then sure share, but give credit where it's due.

Hey, I've been gone awhile. I'm programming something unrelated to pokemon. I might take up my project again, but not anytime soon.

My vote would have to go to Forever Lost, but it is a tough call.

Yeah, that post got deleted I think because it didn't meet the rules of where you posted it.

Sorry, I haven't had time to finish that tutorial yet. I altered some stuff in the def pbGenerateWildPokemon; however, I wasn't too sure how I wanted to handle the checks. Ideally I would like to change something in encounters.txt and the way it's compiled so one can specify where such pokemon...

It's not suggested that someone just copy the new scripts over to the your version. It would be better to move your changes over to the new essentials since there are so many changes to the new essentials. As long as you documented your changes this isn't too hard.

I found a small error in the move effect for Heat Crash and Heavy Slam. In PokeBattle_MoveEffects for the class PokeBattle_Move_09B in def pbBaseDamage the returned value is the variable damage, but should be basedmg. I'm gonna send this to Maruno as a PM, so it makes it into the next update...

@pokemonmasteraaron a boolean is a variable that is only true or false. it's what a switch would be considered.

You'll want hold off locking this thread since the other didn't meet the requirements of the showcase. Your progress seems a little slow, but in the other thread you changed the story. Though still bland in many ways, it makes a little more sense with the leader of Team Plasma changed to...

There is no insult to the hacking community at least not from me. But essentials is not a game its a tool (kinda like the user interface you speak of, i guess). There is no already finished product/ROM that we are editting. I'm not saying what we do is better or harder. Its just different.

Yeah, as my game will not be hack. And as has been said essentials isn't game. I would compare essentials more to a modification of RMXP.

Who is this a reply to though because it probably isn't replying to the OP? Just currious?

Believe you me when I make my game. It will be MY GAME, and not some mod. Any way like was said by someone else essentials isn't a game you mod. It's just a tool giving you a starting point to make your game with.

Have you looked at this: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=251389 I made it for an earlier version of essentials, but it should still work. Hopefully, it's clear enough if not pm me.

@Maruno: Thanks for the reply. I figured that there wouldn't be a definite timeline for abilities to be completed. I didn't even know if 5th gen would be included concerning abilities, and I heard 5th gen moves are a maybe(good to hear that the plan is to eventually include them). 5th gen...
