50% shiny is not as good as 1%. Anyways, thanks for this awesome game. I'm going to play this on my phone now.
Well, 50% shiny is actually the correct chance for the Odd Egg to be shiny, at least in the Japanese version. Also, as an update, I made it so the Odd Egg's Pokémon has the move Dizzy Punch (and apparently, shiny Odd Eggs were never broken in the first place!). :D
I find the intro of the game really interesting... almost all the sprites of pokemon are changed except the groundon & kyogre... it must be difficult or impossible to change them, i can understand that...
1.BTW Suicune surrounded by bunch of unknown,thats awesome...
2.But the best part of the intro is... guess what? you find espeon at day & umbreon at night in intro... now thats totally cool... didnt realize it at first...
3.just wondering, is that togepi flying at the beginning of the intro(i mean the one which is replaced for black shadowy image of latios)
Again, im lovin' it... just keep up the good work...
Thanks! All the credit for the graphics in the amazing new intro goes to blase005. Also, the changes to Groudon and Kyorgre are still WIP. The Pokémon flying in the beginning of the intro is Celebi (like Flygon in Emerald was there and also in the later part of the intro).
The Emulator is the Visual Boy Advance Version 1.8, I believe. Time also doesn't seem to pass, though I wonder if this isn't because I tend to use Savestates — I didn't notice this until I wanted to catch an Oddish and found that it was still 10:06 a.m., which is when I started the Game (even though it was late the next Day when I went to catch one).
I'll send a link to the Emulator, Patched Rom, and Save via PM (apparently, I can't post a Link).
Thanks a bunch! By sending me this, you've helped me figure out the cause of this problem (a broken day-of-week offset routine) and I've fixed and uploaded a new patch. Also, time doesn't seem to pass because you probably have the RTC unchecked in the settings (Options -> Emulator -> Real Time Clock).
where do i find Chinchou in the game? also Heracross?
You can look up the charts for Crystal (Day) for Chinchou, although Heracross might have been limited to only a few Mountain locations...
I've been playing it (up until quite late last night actually, despite having school the next day.) :D Anyway. somethings I'd like to say...
* I love how you really tried to make it like a Crystal revamp, focusing more on the features of Crystal rather than adding your own stuff. I either like my remakes to be vanilla or branch off extremely, with their own storylines etc. I prefer not to have a mis-matched revamp, if that makes any sense. Hey, me too. I don't like it when I'm playing a really-close Crystal remake and suddenly something new gets thrown in. LC is awesome because of all that it adds; CD is awesome because of its overall accuracy.
* The attention to detail; I like how you made the Kimono girls' dresses match their Pokemon. :) Also, the same applies to making Rock Smash a TM again. Thanks! Also, Whirlpool is an HM and actually works from the menu. :D
Some issues.
* You don't get Quick Claw from the lady with the Persian or at least I didn't. She just goes through the dialogue as if she's already given it to you. Whoops, event flag overlap... Fixed and uploaded.
* I'd of liked the day/night Pokemon to be available at, well, day and night. But I think you've already commented on this somehwere, so no biggie. Yeah, they'll be added once Advance-Map stops throwing a fit after a modification of the routines.
As I said, I'm really enjoying it right now (I'm actually playing it at this moment.) Thanks so much for making such a amazing hack. :D
Responses in bold. Thanks for the comments!
Got the first gym badge! Woohoo! So far so good! The only thing i notices was the û above the time. I don't know if thats because I'm playing this on Gameboid on my phone.
Oh, and Prof. Elm's Pokeball just says the same text. Doesn't say that its his last one.
Is that a glitch?
The first issue is the same one I fixed above. You also might not have the RTC enabled in your settings. If not, enable it (if you can even do that on Gameboid).
The second issue is actually not an issue. It says this in Crystal as well.
This is compatible with Flash cart! Don't make it not compatible somehow lol. I did notice a glitch I saved in Mr Pokemons house and turned the game off then when I turned it on later it re-did the whole meet Professor Oak thing. I've had to restart a few times because the save file corrupted somehow. Oh and when I went back to New Bark this girl was all you can't leave without a pokemon even thought already had lol. But this looks great!:)
I found 2 errors 1. When your Rival uses the escape role it says Silver used an escape rope even if he has a different name. 2. The first trainer in the gym in Violet city has the name Hiker instead of Bird Keeper.
I'm going to report bugs and stuff like that as I play this is that ok with you?
The glitches with the save file corrupting ARE the incompatibilities with the flash cart... I'm hoping JPAN can fix his variable hack like he did for FireRed...
The first of the two errors is an oversight by me from back when you couldn't name Silver... Fixed and uploaded. The second was a leftover from when I was testing out a bug with the Hiker class, also fixed and uploaded.
Thanks for all the posts and bugs you guys have been finding! All of it contributes to CrystalDust being a better game in the end!
