No, we are not dead; we're just busy with the real world. Linkandzelda started his first year at university, and I'm on my 2nd year, I have a job at dashhacks (see the signature) and a decent social life - It's not like we forgot about releasing this we're just busy and ensuring that this will be the best, bug-free release yet.

The Pokégear is still being developed and general sprites are too. I still have tilesets to import - Even if it does stretch into 2012, you'll still play it - Kill time with other hacks/ games. I'll keep you updated with the teaser video's too - My PC died recently and I had to reformat, so bare with me - Videos will be up sometime in this week.

In other news, I might be a daddy.

You seem a little too impatient. It will come out when it comes out, and I don't see that link explaining anything other than your inability to wait for a release data. You should give support or post problems instead of whining about a date that passed. If I'm coming off rude, I'm not intending to. I just hate it when others are nagging about the game being released.

No it doesn't. All it explains is his & your impatience.

Hey, you guys, I just want to say that this is a fantastic hack - the best hack of Crystal I've seen so far.

I couldn't stop playing since I downloaded it. Fantastic. Everything from the original Crystal was there. New stuff. New characters. Great.

And yet, I found some mistakes, that could be corrected. Some of them have already been pointed out, but I've got images. :D

I know, probably most of these are already corrected in Beta 3, but if they're not, you should look at them. If you correct these, man, the game would be even better.

So let's see:

Plot holes

Spoiler:

• When I chose Totodile, Silver also chose it. We advanced through the game and eventually both had Feraligatrs.
• At the beginning of the game, Silver is named. However, the first time you face him he is still named ??? (probably to follow the original Crystal)
• After you pick your first Pokemon, Silver said "I'm watching you, Elm." He got confused about this voice, but didn't do anything about it. Shouldn't he look around to see who said that?
• When leaving Azalea Town, Zane appears and talks to the player, then battles him. After defeating him, Zane leaves and inmediately Silver appears, says nothing, and battles the player. After defeating him, Silver still says something about the Team Rocket, even though he never said anything about them in the first place.
• Silver wants to destroy Team Rocket, but then joins them.
• Silver is revealed to be Russell's son -- even though it is known that Silver is Giovainni's son (which a scientist in FireRed confirms).
• Russell fights with the player to make time until he can get his legendary Pokemon. After the fight, he suddenly wants to be with his son. That change of heart came out from nowhere. At least, he should say something like, "But why? Why can't I have ultimate power? Is power not the answer...? Then what is it?".
• Brendan comes from Hoenn, battles with the player and gives all of his Pokemon to Elm. With no reason to do all those things.
• Axel was trying to get to Silver and Russell just because of a McDonald's meal?
• Even though Blue and Axel are at Cinnabar Island at the same time, neither say anything about each other, even though they're next to one another.

Incorrect stuff

Spoiler:

>> The dude that sells the stones may not look at you when he's speaking (Cerulean City).

>> You can walk in this border in Dragon's Den.

>> You can't active the bike in Cerulean City.

>> The same in Blackthorn City.

>> Saffron City's northern entrance looks different from each way. From below, the exit is around buildings; from above, it's around trees.

>> You can go through these rocks in Dragon's Den.

>> The top of the building (Fuchsia City) uses the wrong tiles.

>> Again, walking in the water in Dragon's Den.

>> When you travel to the past, you get to this Island. If you go to the most top of it, you can see some trees-stuff where just mountain border should be.

>> Minor mistake, should be "No one's". Also, it's would be "No one has done that" instead of "No one's got that".

>> After exiting Fuchsia City from the right entrance, you can actually see the map's end at the other side.

>> Walking in water at Dragon's Den...

>> There's this long staircase in some part of the game (can't remember which one). The first time I played it, the staircase had no end. I walked up like ten minutes until I reset the game. The rest of the times it behave normally.

>> Probably this is intentional, but "See ya later" looks better :P

>> At the south of Fuchsia City, you can see water becomes tree suddenly.

>> Here at Ecruteak's. If you look at the left-top of the image, you see trees' tops, but no trees.

>> When entering this gate to go to Lake Of Rage, you can actually see that there's no road behind it, even though there actually is.

>> Don't make the same mistake the original Crystal did. The northern entrance of Ruins of Alph don't match to what is seen inside. Here you can see that mountain, but there's not entrance, as seen when you enter.

>> Minor corrections: "Well, I"; "you're eager"; "we're doing".

>> Minor thing: It should be "TM03" with no space.

>> Should be something like this: "Well, I should really get going. Prof. Elm, take my Pokemon."

>> Once more, it should be "you're".

>> Here at the Pokemon League, at the right, you can see the trees where the mountain should continue.

Minor things

Spoiler:

• There's actually a "..." symbol. You don't have to put three dots to write that.

Ahh, I'm tired. Well, that's it... I hope you check out these things so the hack can be better. I'm sure it will be.

Good luck!

Hey, it looks fantastic! Keep up the good work!

I see that you fixed the gate of Route 46. Now you can see road behind it! Great (*one of the mistakes I found is being crossed out*).

About something... now the DUDE is an old man? How weird! :)

By the way, the tutorial of the old man that gives you the MAP CARD is great, but the player doesn't quite follow him. He stands at the right of the old man while walking. I don't know how "easy" that would be to correct...

Anyway, great game! I'll be among the first ones to play it when it is released!
