[Hack of the Year] Pokémon Sienna [Beta 3 Released]

[Sparky1344]

The Doctor I loved your hack just no words for the greatness sir, I love you

Oh and I will Lp this hack do you mind if you watch it?

[LightSlei]

I just finished one, however hardly finished as I can't get the warps into the forest to work, I tried reloading the state a few hundred times but the two warp squares simply just freeze the game.

I hope you don't mind me going ahead and doing one without your permission. If you do have a problem please pm me on the youtube account and I'll delete them.

Mind telling me when you add an update so it works and I can finish?

[Spherical Ice]

That happens to me, too. :/

A fix is to save before leaving the forest, close your emulator, reload Sienna and exit the forest from the entrance, re-entering and going out. It works for me when I do that.

Yeah, you have to trek through the grass again. Ah well.

[Sarcastic Prince]

Can you please answer my question, Doctor? I can't wait anymore. I want to play this Hack ASAP after
you upload a new patch.

Please reupload a new file, Doctor.
I recommend A-Patch over IPS.

As you can see, A-Patch is more advanced.

I know, I beta tested it. :( Also, it's A-Ptch.

I found a solution anyway. :D

Sure.

Updates:

I've been working on some things. I don't have much to show, as I don't like spoiling things.



edit: .rar file containing an A-Ptch patch is now available on the first post.

Yeah, Harry, it seems like I'm not the only one with that problem :/

[Manipulation]

Not my fault Windows 7 isn't compatible with OS' below Vista. Get a better OS. >:o

[altariaking]

this hack is one of the best I have ever played! I lol'd at the guy in front of the second gym! question: what level do likky and duglug evolve? and are likiliky and honchkrow in it? how do you get them if they are?

[Manipulation]

Yes they are both in this hack:

Murkrow -> Honckrow (Level 22)
Duglug -> Drilldug (Level 24?) Something like that.
Likky -> Lickitung (Happiness)

Lickitung then has a split evolution, with a brand new fakemon.

[Sarcastic Prince]

A-Patch seems to be even more complicated. I can't get the program to patch the Rom.
I wonder why?

[sako]

i played the beta and i have to say it was awesome

[Chibi Robo]

Update:

Not much is known about this creature. It is said that he who controls it has immense power, enough to bring an end to the world as we know it. For centuries this beast has been chained down in the place that is called "The Haven". What is this Pokemon?


FIND OUT SOON

[Spherical Ice]

MAX THAT IS AN AWESOME PICTURE OF---slapped-

Sorry. Anyway, you guys will love the mystery behind... this Pokémon. It's super cool and stuff.

(God, YouTube has a tonne of videos about Sienna!)

go die mmk? :D

Well, I'm totally slumping and stuff. Only got a few things to show: one being the concept art revealed; the other being my hotm award. :D

Revealed today is the concept art of the legendary Pokémon; Gralite!


And here is my hotm award:

[Tropical Sunlight]

It's... weird. But after all, it's a legendary Pokemon
It looks great, but I think you should add more to it. You know how all Pokemon have different stripes, multi-colored bodies etc.

[Sarcastic Prince]

It's not that I don't know how to patch it, it's that I keep getting an error message
saying that your Sienna APS Patch is not valid.

That's my problem.

[Manipulation]

If you're using below Vista then I'm not going to go any further with finding out the problem. :(

[Tropical Sunlight]

You should take improving Gralite into consideration. It's very plain.

I'm using XP, by the way and it's no problem

[Manipulation]

@above: No thanks. I appreciate your input; but I really like the design. It may be improved, none of our sugimori art is final until it's sprited and inserted into the game.

Updates:

I re-scripted the beginning level script, it's pretty much the same; but with one difference, ASM! It now contains the rival naming routine! This is all thanks to HackMew! :D Also, this does remove the rival naming in the intro.

[Omega Zero]

Oh wow! that is really neat

:l

There is actually more of a design on the belly of gralite. Though you can't see it because of how I positioned it. I probably wont redo it either
(unless harry makes me do another form of gralite ._.' )

Even if there is a whole civilization's history sculpted on his belly you still can't make me think it's a legendary. I would believe it more if it was a new water-type fakemon, but a legendary? it just has no feel to me.

it has immense power, enough to bring an end to the world as we know it. For centuries this beast has been chained down in the place that is called "The Haven"

Now, why doesn't it fit the appearance either...when you typed those words, I was thinking of a beast

No offense, Max. It's the concept I'm not okay with, not the sprite/concept art. Then again, it might be just me.

It's not just you. I, too, think that the concept doesn't suit a legendary Pokémon. It's just lacking something that would distinguish it from your average Pokémon. It needs something flashy and unique.

[Manipulation]

I blame Max. That is all.

[Manipulation]

Anyway, I got a couple of screenshots and stuff.



Screen 1: Event preview. :D
Screen 2: Oh look, that building in Vermilion finally got built. I wonder how this will be involved in-game?
