New Pokemon Game

Hi guys, My name is Gian, i plan on making a really great firered hack with my free time. I have been practicing how to use everything. A little shaking with the scripting because i haven't really used it yet. Right now im working on my sprites and im wondering what the easiest way to make pictures i've found into smaller versions and the colour schemes to match the picture. Right now im using "Advanced Pokémon Sprite Editor" but it doesnt keep the pictures the right colour. Also if i find a picture i want to use, is there a way to change the view so when the player is using the pokemon its backwards.

Anyway thank you for anyone who helps out!

Posting again because my "recruitment scheme" has changed. (Will delete old post shortly afterwards. I believe it's page 7? Anyway...)

Hack name: Pokémon: Stygian Version.
Hack of: Pokémon Crystal. (Note: made in pokecrystal disassembly. My fork can be found here.)
Information about the hack:
Finished percentage: Probably somewhere around... 0.1%? I honestly don't know, but 100% is going to be big.
Your hacking skills: Generally everything I need.
What help or skill you're looking for: Storyline/game objective ideas, map ideas and generally all that sort of no-skills-required stuff.
Additional contact information: irc.freenode.net IRC channel #pkmnstygian (invite required. PM me or go to this Skype group for access request: [])
Additional information: What is the hack about? Well... it's set in a fantasy universe in the medieval stages called "Eulaworld," made from many different dimensions and worlds. The particular three worlds that it is set in are: Earth (includes the main setting, the Stygian Abyss, and the Armageddon-ravaged surface which is accessed later on in the game,) Rollennia (end-game destination) and the satanic alternate dimension Doom (the terrifying setting for the final boss.)

So basically, a cataclysmic event called the "Armageddon" occurs on the surface of Maac. The player, who has no memory of who they are, is brought down into the only safe haven from the Armageddon's rage; the Stygian Abyss. There the game starts. They wake up next to a note that explains what the Armageddon was, and that they were brought down into the Abyss with a benign wish to save them. The note instructs them to find a certain shrine on that level of the Abyss (B1, the first one,) where the story will be explained to them. So far I've got some vague ideas for an objective. I know that to save Maac's people, they will have to leave Maac altogether, and travel to Rollennia. I think that maybe on the eighth level of the Abyss, 16 talismans, previously scattered about the Abyss, or some such (maybe 8 fragments of 2 orbs, one for a destination (Rollennia) and one for a source (Maac?)) would have to be thrown into a pit of lava or something. Then maybe they would be sent to Doom for reasons undecided (see? This is why I need help, people!) to slay Satan or something. Satan would have been the perpetrator of the Armageddon. Once it is slain, Doom disintegrates and the whole Abyss (as well as the player) is sent to Rollennia. Happy times there, with end-game activities like farming and mining. The end. Sound intriguing? Then why not help me turn this bare-bones linear main plot prototype into a great non-linear game!

TL;DR: Medieval fantasy aspiring-to-be-non-linear game with only a linear story for now.

Don't have any skills? No matter! I only want ideas. Y'see, I'm sort of stuck as to what I should do for my hack. I know it's going to be heavily inspired by—but not based off—Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss. However, I don't want it to be too similar. So I need someone who is good at creating things at the gameplay level (rather than the programming level) to give me ideas I can use. Credit will be given in the end-game credits and the to-be-added main menu acknowledgements screen.

Anyone who needs a dutch translator?

I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post this. If this isn't please move it or tell me where I should remake it.

Hello Pokecommunity,

I'm looking for people who want to make a dutch translation of their ROM Hacks or just the regular games. I'm sad that there are (to my knowledge) no dutch ROM Hacks around that I can find. I'm willing to help them translate everything so I can finally enjoy playing a Pokemon game with my girlfriend (who only speaks dutch, not english).
I'll also start looking into how to develope and translate ROMs myself to maybe in the future make one myself.

If anyone needs my help, or if anyone knows a Dutch translated ROM, please let me know. :)

Hello! I'm just starting out on a hack I've been dying to work on for over a year, so it has little progress, but lots of promise!

Hack name: Pokemon Neon Opal Version
Hack of: Pokemon Fire Red v1.0
Information about the hack: New region (Salintra Region), four extra types (Atomic, Light, Space, Time), 162 new Pokemon, all 721 current Pokemon, new moves, Mega Evolution, new Mega evolutions.
Finished percentage: 1%
Your hacking skills: Very little. All I can really do is use some simple hacking tools, and even they sometimes confuse me.
What help or skill you're looking for: Music composition, cry creation, coding for help with repointing, sprite creation, move design, ability coding, item coding, evolution coding, and possibly more.
Additional contact information: Skype: dolphy.blue_drake
Additional information: Examples of new Pokémon include: More Eeveelutions, Evolutions for Jynx, Farfetch'd and others. Features will include a new item that allows the holding Pokemon to hold two items (PokéPack), more fossils, and more.

Travel the Salintra region to complete a PokéDex of 883 Pokémon, become the league champion, and defeat an evil misanthropic team bent on removing all traces of human influence from the world.

May include triple battles if it can be coded in.

Two rivals: Next door neighbor and the main character's younger sibling.

ROM hacking team

So even though I had to edit my post to put in the template, the thing below the template is what I had before, so info will be repeated, and if I don't specify something, check there.

Hack name: I don't really have a name for any of the three, but the one with Red will just be some form of Red version in the title.
Hack of: FireRed
Information about the hack: For now I'm just wanting to make one, but the whole plan is to make three games with stories through Red, Blue, and Leaf's eyes. That means that the one that I want to make first will be a slight edit of FireRed.
Finished percentage: Like 1% probably
Your hacking skills: I can change and make maps, add in overworld sprites, and do very, very, VERY minor scripting.
What help or skill you're looking for: Anything at all. Not looking for the game to be made for me, I just want a team to discuss and make the game with. I am open to ideas for the story and such too!
Additional contact information: kik for group chatting?: NG55, Skype: nick.girdy, email: [email protected]

READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY!

I have been trying to make a hack on an off for years now and I've never been able to do much. There are three games that I want to make, and they will all have to be hacks of FireRed since I've been told that LeafGreen is very hard to hack. If it suddenly is, please do not act like I'm a gigantic idiot because I've been told on multiple occasions that it is hard to hack.

The first of the hacks will be a small change of FireRed to add story elements and dialogues and such, as well as putting the CHARACTER Leaf in AS A RIVAL! The main character will be RED! If you do not understand that, then you are dumb.

The other two will follow the same concept but have BLUE OAK and LEAF as main characters. I HAVE NOT gotten very far in creating the first hack (which I assume will be the easiest) because I DO NOT have very much knowledge on the subject. And DO NOT send me to some tutorial, because they DO NOT help! Only somewhat!

I am looking for people to help me make it and THAT DOES NOT MEAN I want people to do it for me! I DO NOT have a list of what I need because I DO NOT know anything about this. I basically just need friends to discuss this stuff with. Again, I AM NOT looking for people to do it for me! I am happy to learn!

I can do overworld sprites if I have them, so if I need custom sprites and someone makes them, I can easily put them into the game myself. It's really the backsprites and title screen stuff that I would need doing for me.

With code, I will really just need assistance if I get stuck, or maybe if I'm doing one thing, someone else can make a script.

We'll have to do one game at a time so don't worry about Blue and Leaf at all until we've got Red done.

Now, if you have questions, JUST ASK and DO NOT TREAT ME LIKE I'M GARBAGE! If I need to provide more information TELL ME AND I WILL! People on this websites and the sisterish one that's really the same one seem to think that they can treat people like crap because they're admins.

Hey, it's been awhile, but I've got a new inspiration to finish a hack I wanted to start in the first place!!

Hack Name: Pokemon Gold EX (May change name later on)

Hack Of:
Pokemon Gold (GBC)

Information of Hack:
Basically a reskin of Gold so it is a small project really mainly because I'm a beginner, but with newly added features. A better level curve/difficulty (more notably, unhacked Dragonites), Better trainers (including Rival) by means of pokemon, moveset, and updated trainer sprites. Silver exclusive pokemon included, added legendaries, Celebi, Mew, Mewtwo, the 3 birds. Also, The Final Boss (Red) will be replaced with a much more intense and challenging team and moveset.

Finished Percentage: 15-20%

My Hacking Skills: I can create Trainer Sprites (battle and overworld), and edit Trainer's pokemon they use, items they use, what levels they are. I can also edit Wild Pokemons. I can edit text if need be for spelling errors or to decapitalize words through out the game. (but that's optional honestly for this hack)

What skills I need: I need someone to make new script events for free roam pokemon. (The 3 birds + Mew in Kanto, and a free roam Celebi in Johto) I need someone to edit and add in Cereulean Cave for Mewtwo. (As in a map and the events to trigger the battle between the player and Mewtwo, I can add the other wild pokemon to the cave once it's made. I need someone to insert Sprites in the hack (I've got the program AGIXP, but I have difficulty using it, I can provide the program via dropbox if need be.) I need to add Trainers on Victory Road and Ice Cave. I need someone that can edit the titlescreen. (which I'll include details of what I need via PM). Every person involved in this hack will be greatly credited, I promise that by putting your names in my signature a reminder ;)

Additional Contact Information: Email is "[email protected]"

Additional Information: I have a FB page for this project that you can visit as well to speak with me.
https://www.facebook.com/FriendshipIsAVideoGame/
I go by a MLP username and profile pic, but you can ignore that since it's just a facade of my fandom. :3

PCP

TileLayerPro users needed for sprite insertion. Will pay for your time

Hack name: Pokemon Crystal Plus
Hack of: Pokemon Crystal
Information about the hack: One of my favourite games is Pokemon Crystal. However, I am very aware of various faults. In particular the Johto Leaders are uninspired and the difficulty curve of the whole game is all over the place. This project completely overhauls all leaders, trainers and wild pokemon to make the game more interesting, and to smooth out the difficulty curve. It also resolves various other issues, such as the TR storyline, trade evolutions, missing pokemon, etc. In addition to these 'improvements' (at least in my eyes), various other things have been remixed and added to make things a little more different.
Finished percentage: c. 99% (aside from a couple of final things as outlined in the Q&A section, everything else has been done. Only need a TLP user to finish the project.
Your hacking skills: Everything else has been done.
What help or skill you're looking for: I need someone who knows how to use TLP to insert between 2 - 4 sprites into the rom. The necessary ones are replacement battle (not overworld) sprites for the Rocket Execs. The other is for the Cerulean grunt (if it is possibly to change his sprite without altering the other grunts. The final is replacing the Mewtwo sprite for one of Mewtwo Y. Again, if possible. The latter two are ideal but not necessary.
Additional contact information: email is: [email protected]. Can also contact using pokecommunity message system or alternate means.

Thanks. If you have any questions, just send me a message.
