All starters will be fully grown and would be at Lv 10.What level will the starters be at? Because my Dragonite was level 100.

Guys, looking through my PC I have a very rough Alpha version of the game, this poses me with two choices.
1) I release the ROM as it is, it has OWs, basic story and mapping. I've not played it too much, but I do know that it is playable, how far it goes, I do not know.
2) I re-form a team and try to continue the ROM with the story that DarkRisingGirl had written on the front page with possible changes.
I've never made a ROM hack as my own before, I've only helped. So if the second option were to be chosen, I could only help with OW sprites and the story.
Choose guys, it's all up to you! :)

She did not say that she would not make a public release with 100% certainty. She said that it is a possibility, meaning she might still release the full game (but, like I said, I doubt it will be as good as it would've been if everyone continued to help her).
I really do not like this idea to be honest. You should've gotten her permission first (although that might be a little challenging given the current situation). Not to mention, the story will not be what it was intended to be. Seeing as how the storyline is apparently the strongest portion of the Dark Rising series, and with how passionate DRG seems to be about the story in her games, I think it would both end up insulting her, further encouraging her to not come back to this community, and end up with a feeling while playing the hack "Well, this is cool I guess, but I'm still not seeing the events of the game fold out in the way DRG envisioned them, so why care?" There is also no guarantee that this team you put together will have the dedication and work ethic to see the game to completion, not to mention the possibility of the content the new team comes up with having a chance to clash with the already created content. Finally, there is also the fact that the Dark Rising series is supposed to be a trilogy. How are you going to do the story and gameplay features for a game that DRG has probably not even given a single thought to, nor even started a thread for?
All pros and cons considered, this just seems like a bad idea to me. She could always come back, release the second game, then start over on the forums fresh with the third game. Maybe I'm foolish for thinking this, but I still want to hold out on the hope that she will eventually return.
She can. It's her work.As much as it's initially her hack, cancelling it without explaination after all effort you put on it is completly insulting. For this reason i don't think you should cancel all the work you did for the hack.
I gotta say you buried any possibility of DRG releasing version here.
Releasing the version without her permission isn't nice thing to do...
And as for some team completing this hack...
Do you want Dark Rising 2 or just another hack you're gonna play?
She can. It's her work.

By this logic, I can claim ownership of Light Platinum.It's technically NOT her work now.
It's JBSundown's copy. So he owns it. DRG gave it to him and at the same time the ownership of the copy he has.
And what if JBSundown edited even the slightest of content in the game? That would mean he is also part of the creation of the game, part of the ownership of the game.
I mean what I mean.And, do you want "just another hack you're gonna play" or no game at all?
By this logic, I can claim ownership of Light Platinum.
Can I?
Obviously NOT.
Hack is always property of creator unless creator passes the ownership to someone else.
No, you can use the game as per the ToS(Terms of Service) you have to agree to when you install it. For hacks like this one, however, there are no ToS and hence no restrictions to editing them, though it is not always ethical to do so. In this case however, it may be Ok, as long as you explicitly state that you have edited a copy of DRG's game and you have no ill will whatsoever.I can sort this out, probably. By that logic, he and you are both correct.
If you go to a store, and buy a game, do you own that game? Yes. You own that copy of the game.
And with that copy, you are free to do what you will with it.
Of course DRG still holds ownership over it, but she gave a copy out, which means that that copy is under someone else's ownership.
Beyond attempt to sort this out, I can't actually comment on it, as I've yet to finish the first one. >_>

Gen 6 starters cannot be included for many reasons. Some of them are :can't you add a option to pick the 6th gen starters or some way to get a REAL starter that was the ONLY thing i hated about dark rising 1
