Really amazing, everywhere I go I just get more amazed at how beautiful it is.
Just a couple of things, I'm wondering if uproar will be a sound attack and what attacks are sound type?
Also a small spelling error I thought I'd report:

Thanks ^^ about uproar, I'll change it the next alpha I saw that these attacks are still normal. About the spelling error, fixed! =3

I am stuck in the forest it says I do not have enough pokemon to proceed and that I have to capture 1 wild pokemon so I did and its still not letting me pass

Well It's really simple capture a POKéMON and keep it in your party! That script contains a count POKéMON script that will allow you to pass when you got 2 POKéMON in your party!

Now this is awesome!
Finally Dark Cry has alpha!
I can't wait to start playing... Mitchel you did oustanding job in these two years and I congratulate you on this outcome =)

Thanks ash493, have fun playing the first world wide alpha!

Where can I find first Gym Leader???

Go to the gym entery at Atlernion city and a "bug catcher" will walk to you! He'll explain where she might can be found! Good luck! =D

I did catch another pokemon and it still would not let me through and also the path that led me there disappeared so I can't get to the gym leader

Did I need to complete a mission?

No that is not needed, it should work.

Alo123: hmm try it with only 2 pokemon in your team. About the path, that should be right read the 'fun knowladge from dc: tlog' collum it says: areas could have been changed by morning, day, afternoon, evening and night....

This looks incredible! How do you change the head sprite on the mini-map?

When I walked off of route 601(I had gone back, this wasn't the first time) the tiles on the news stand glitched

Also I can only find one (main) path in Purity forest. Is there a way I'm missing or another entrance.

Thanks for that report, I have fixed this problem =3
About purity forest, it contains one main road what might could change between 5pm (17.00) and 6pm (18.00)

Off-topic:
For everyone else who has tried this hack, did someone reached the first gym and beat all 6 side quests? =3

On-topic
I'm going on a well deserved vacation for the comming 2 weeks. This thread will stay online so bugs could be reported. I hope you'll all enjoy this hack and 'till 2 weeks! Cheers!

Okay thank you for the hint there (changed my computer clock I'm usually not on 5-6)
However the count script doesn't work(like someone said before) so I had to use a walk through walls cheat. I really loved the team rocket scene and the whole classic feel of it.
However I did find some grammar errors with no capital at the beginning of sentences
There

and here

Also in the battle with team rocket the pallet kept flashing.
(I hope I'm being helpful not annoying)

My starter it Pichu. Man, I must say Its quite a hard game. I got some error/bug.


1.png

The Bed tiles kinda cut off when you go to bed.


2.png

Mom OW doesn't have walking frame. Its looks like she is sliding instead of walking O_o

3.png

Wean I select an item its icon go Black.

4.png

I'm not sure its a bug or not but when u walk on grass, the grass looks to bright green.

5.png

I think you should move this news building a lil bit further or this will happen I you enter this area.

Well, I just played a little. I am now sleeping in an old man house and Dreaming (in game though..).
I'll post more bug if I find some.

Great to hear you've managed to find the main path ^^ Anyhow thanks for reporting I know about the many grammar errors and I wish I could resolve it but the translator has been booted out. About the flashing, I did encounter it aswell. It only appears at double battles and it seems like it has something to do with the D/N in-battle pallet change. Might I could resolve it in the near future! No It's okay, reporting is better than be silent. =3

I know the game is really hard if you play with Pichu, and I would like to apologize for the hard trainer "Super Nerd Gary". Magnamite isn't easy but it's possible when you capture some different POKéMON so thats why it's inserted this way.
This is actually the difficulty level:

Grass: Medium
Water: Medium
Fire: Easy
Electric: Hard


Bugs and Glitches
_______________________________________________

1) Bed seems like a simple block premission bug. I'll take a look when I return to Holland!

2)Mom OW I couldn't help, better complain to Nintendo for not making a walking frame. xD It could be solved easily but I aint that great with pixel art to create the walking frames.

3)Has been reported already before release (Check bug/glitches list)
Bag layout seems like to change color after selecting a item

4)The grass isn't a bug, FR/LG roms doesn't support a 9-tile grass animation. The only grass animation from FR/LG has been changed into this.

5)Bug has been reported by Rayce and has been recently fixed!

Have fun further in dark cry: TLoG =3!

i clicked it a 100 times but it gets me to the release post and the only link or attachment i could find is to vba 1.8.0 beta 3

Erhm... What's so hard to click on the hugh, blue download button =S

Off-topic:
Anyhow I've sended this message from the beautiful country Croatia! I'm now going to enjoy the weather and have a great time with my girl since it rained this morning. 'till 2 weeks people, cheers! =3

Well that count pokemon glitch it very important because it's the only way to get to the gym.
See I have 5 pokemon in my team:

But I still get the message:

Before you said:
Well It's really simple capture a POKéMON and keep it in your party! That script contains a count POKéMON script that will allow you to pass when you got 2 POKéMON in your party!
This is the only way through. I was able to only because I used a walk through walls cheat.
There must be a minor script glitch here, but it's very important to fix next time you get a chance because you will get many complaints wondering what to do because they can't get through
