The other day I edited the pokegear script to make it look more attractive. All you need to do is import the images into the picture folder then replace the pokegear script with this edit.

i like these sprites , i worked with them before.
And i sprited a pokegear much better than the actual one...
I have to fix it a little, and then poccil could implent it.

That PokeGear interface is very nice but I think it needs a few more tweaks. Maybe add in an arrow and move the text box the whole way down and show the edges of it on the right.

OblivionMew:

Thank you for the modification. I have finished incorporating it.

How is it possible to change the exp level?

Change the level of a Pokemon, or change the amount of experience earned?

The amount of exp gained from defeating a pokemon
because its like 3 times too much...

Oh, I see. To do that, edit the file pokemon.txt, and edit the "BaseEXP=" settings of any species in that file.

The Pokegear scrip and grapchics, is excellent, thanks alot OblivionMew. I'm still wondering if anyone will make the Phone feature in the Pokegear yet?

And when i use the debug menu to change the terrain to ice, i save the changes. It doesn't work when i first do it, i have to leave the map then come back fo it to work, then when i save the playtest game and return to it, i can't slide on the ice anymore and it's like i never edit the terrain tags, what's up with that? (I don't mean to sound aggrivated or mad, just wondering)

Unfortunately, RPG Maker XP has its own version of the data in memory (independent of the game's editor), so that it overwrites it when the project is saved again.

So then how will the terrain tag stay if you can only use it in the debug menu, since the regular rpg maker xp system can't go past 7?

As I already know, RPG Maker XP doesn't force any terrain tags to be 7 or less, but merely displays
them as blank in its tileset editor. For example, if a terrain tag is 10, it is still considered to
be 10, but it's merely displayed as blank.

I will find a way to solve this problem in the next release, which will likely involve creating a
temporary data file.

So what can we expect from the next release?

By the way poccil, can you add in next release a way to do the animations by the standard RMXP system, no this animeditor...

How would I remove let's say the Sinnoh region out of my game.

Just curious...

Does pokemon essetntials have a berry system?

I know it´s very hard to script but will there ever be a contest script?
or something like this?
I think i could rip the graphics for this.

All those requests for new features, and so little time. I'm very busy improving on it, so I won't be checking on this thread often. What I can say is that I will add Pokeball animations and a visual editor to the next version.

yeah i know it´s very hard. Maybe i could help you with essentials.
Indeed iam not good at scripting. Can you tell me where to learn?^^

I've been looking at the exp calculations after reading Sharpedo's post and I'm stumped. All of the variables are what they should be but the exp you get is higher than iy should be. Does anyone have any ideas?

*EDIT* I don't want to edit the base exp rate as it's correct as far as the Pokemon GBA/DS games go.

It's a bug. To fix it, find this line near line 1761 of PokeBattle_Battle script section:


Replace it with:
