do you have any tiles yet? do you have a story? when you say its close to gold, how close? what are the differences? these aren't really suggestions, but these are questions you can answer to help further establish your hack.
good luck BigSteve

Nice and also I would change white gold since nintendo copyrghted it and they can do a lwasuit or sue you for copyright infringment. I think. Otherwise gooood luck!

well the tiles are already there, and he says that the only changes are the additions of pokemon you can't get in Gold without trading, so other than a few legendary encounters, the story should be the same

i have a suggestion however, when you said you were making all the starters available, you could it make so that you don't have a choice what starter you get given (but make sure it's not cyndaquil, chikorita or totodile or some super powerful pkmn), kind of like with pokemon yellow, but probably not pikachu lol

then you could make the johto starters very rare, in hard-to-get-to parts of the game...

asin pretty much the same storyline

im going to insert a few battle gauntlets for players to earn the Johto and Kanto starters but im not sure what i'll use as the new starters....

at this point im using the default tiles

the differences are that all 251 pokemon can be obtained in one game

i didnt intend for this to become anything big just throwing it out there incase anybody else is interested because i'm only making it for my own benefit

this hack is really meant to be a learning experience for me to move onto greater things

already i have learned how to script a little bit (big thanks to cooley there), how to use TLP and a bit of HEx too!

@darkcookie_93 thanks for the warning there, i looked it up and it seems theyve had it for years , along with MoonStone, but havent done anything with it

@Black_Phantom i intended to use different starters or a single starter so i can add events for them all :) battle gauntlets sound ok?

battle gauntlet asin fight 5 trainers and talk to the guy at the end that will say 'well done you have earned this' and give you a pokemon :)

Oh, nice to see a gold hack in a while, sounds like a good hack.
It seems you've done the basics of the beginning. Well, I hope you get far in this hack of yours.

Thanks!
nice to see people like my simple hack even though im not changing much this time :)


how can i chane my thread title? i want it to say Bright Gold instead of White Gold now that i know i cant use that name -.-


im currently having problems with the give pokemon scripts :( this could cause problems for the idea of gauntlets until i get it fixed :S

updated first post with new title screen :)

Well you can ask the mods through pms . Its best if you ask blaizchu seeing as he does a lot in a snap. And if not ask christos if hes online. Also nice brightgold.

updated first post with an ideas section
thanks to IIMarckus and Cooley i now have working givePokemon script to work with :)
please comment on the idea's i put forward :)

Chariard should be starter and then every single one as an event and
hoenn pokes are cool. No one but skeetendo tried it and thats why this is going in my book.

Hope this goes well for you.

Some advice/constructive critisim: from years of experience, you should never announce features that you havn't implemented yet, becuase to be quite honest, they most likey never get implemented, unless you really know what you are doing.

No way man, you havn't clue have you?

Id place CHARMANDER as your starter.

Are you talking about adding more pokemon? Coolboyman actualy did it.

ill only use Hoenn pokemon once i learn ASM (sometime in future) to add more pokemon :)
i dont think ill add many though :P

and Charmander will be the starter, bulbasaur will be given by the fat man in New Bark town as a gift to an old friends son.

Squiretle and the Johto starters will be aquired through battle gauntlets of up to 5 trainers throughout the game. im considering putting them on routes so they arent missed :)

Cartmic- thanks for the constructive criticism but if you looked it's under ideas as in possible things that mght be added :)

I was looking at this:

i will be adding all the pokemon eventually but for now because of a lack of scripting knowledge i have only added the pokemon that can be caught again and again

Post removed to hide some of the hack :)

Yep theres a gold map editor out in the toolbox. And I meant charmander I was half asleep. And what I meant by more pokemon was that skeetendo before coolboyman had a hack sterling silver with hoenn pokemon and eventually if he(or she cant remember) does continue will have sinnoh. As the thread says. So yeah this is about the 3rd one to do it.

I don't think you can add maps with either tool (I don't use either so I can't confirm), but if you're good with pointers you can repoint a map bank in hex to add as many maps as you want.

im not sure about that at this point

but what if i just used the link rooms as spare maps? would i be able to do that?

You could do that. I think there are only three link rooms and not one for each Center; they all lead to the same actual room. But there are a few unused maps, like the Safari Zone and some incomplete (?) Pokecenter 2F maps that aren't used at all. That should get you by for a while.

1. Articuno
2. Zapdos
3. Moltres
4. Mewtwo
5. Mew
6. Celebi

that would be 6 lairs needed :)

Trade Room, Battle Room, Time Capsule, Safari Zone, if there are 2 unused pokemon centre maps im in business :D

where can i find the code for an overworld legendary event? thats the only thing holding me back now :)


updated first post with a map and possible new title screen, what does everyone think?
