The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Patch
Hi all, welcome to a new SlowpokeStudios patch thread. Today I'm introducing The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Patch. Probably you all know Chaos Rush' Sprite Resource. Many patches have a few (or all) of his sprites inserted. But we've got one major problem: for as far as I know there isn't any patch that only inserts the sprites without making any other changes to the ROM. Well, now there is. The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Patch is a fanmade patch that completely 'updates' all Pokémon sprites.

Patch Information
Base: Pokémon FireRed (BPRE), Pokémon Emerald (BPEE). Note that the Emerald patch disables Pokémon animations. Note: the current patch does work with MrDollSteak's, but we have only tested for FireRed U. If you tried for FireRed E and it works, please let me know in the comments or VM/PM me.
Effect: Changes the Pokémon sprites to match Chaos Rush' DS-style 64x64 Sprite Resource.

Downloads
The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Patch.zip

Known Bugs
Milotic's shiny sprites are slightly glitched.
Piloswine and Corsola shiny backsprites are slightly glitched.
Both Pelipper backsprites are partly transparent.
All Pokémon sprites on PET Trainer Editor are slightly glitched; this does not harm gameplay in any way.
Feel free to report any bugs in the comments, or shoot me a VM/PM. They will be fixed as soon as possible.

Credits
Slowpoke13 (myself): All the boring sprite inserting work... (and the Sudowoodo edited sprite)
The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Resource: Pokémon sprites
Chaos Rush: Animation disabling for Emerald

Other Important Info
This patch is free to use, but always give credit to The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Patch and The DS-style 64x64 Pokémon Sprite Resource.
And lastly, I won't work on the patches for R, S and LG if nobody asks me. If someone is looking for the sprites on Ruby, Sapphire or LeafGreen, VM/PM me or quote this phrase in a comment.
Happy hacking!

Waiting for Emerald :)

Hope for your success...

Inserting PokeSprites are very easy but Sooo BORING..

Thanks! I want to start on Emerald right away but I couldn't do them moving like other Emerald sprites. Is that a problem for you?

Indeed... I hate inserting all the Pokémon stuff since you have to do it a whopping 380 times!

I doesn't matter to me. (bohemian rhapsody reference)

Why are you doing it for leaf green?

That's a really good question... I'll remove LeafGreen from the 'coming soon' thing and maybe I'll make it if somebody asks me...

Same thing with Sapphire. I've never seen anyone use it in a pokemon hack. This doesn't mean you can't do them but, you should finish Emerald and Ruby first.

That's fine. I can't wait. I the FR base compatible with JPAN's engine and MrDs' rom base?
Thanks in advance!

The patch should be compatible with JPAN's Hacked Engine and MrDollsteak's ROM base. It only rewrites sprite offsets if I'm correct. Take a backup and test it :) ! If it doesn't I can make a patch that works with JPAN's engine and MrDs' base when I have some spare time.

Waiting men.
How many hours you use by inserting all of it?
Click to expand...

Not really what?

It took me about 2-3 hours (and that' s already too much) to do it on FireRed, including cutting of the female sprites of Pokémon with gender differences. It will take more for Emerald I guess, I'm still figuring out how to remove animated sprites... But Emerald patch should be ready by wednesday (it's school in the meantime, remember?) Since I guess you meant the patch isn't compatible with JPAN's engine and MrDs' base I'll have to rewrite, so if you need it it will be ready by saturday or so...

EDIT: Emerald glitches out completely... I patched it with a disable animations patch, so I hope that's the problem? I'll try with clean ROM now.

UPDATE: Gen I has been nearly finished for Emerald! High chances of it being completed still today!

Okay guys something goes wrong with Emerald... I came back home and tried my Emerald patch (not completed) on my other laptop and poof... G3HS couldn't even start it! I'll look into this more, the Emerald patch is still going to be released wednesday for now. Thanks for your notion.

I thought Chaos's sprites were a series ready.. And you know there's an import all button, right?

For those asking, it probably is compatible with JPAN's engine(why aren't you using the tool first of all the tool is compatible with almost everything), but as long as it doesn't overwrite any offsets that are being used by MrDS's stuff it'll work. However, if MrDS's changed bytes and the sprites' changed bytes overlap you'll get some really odd results.

So there is a patch for it already? Some guys hadn't noticed then ;) , and now they have a new one. Btw that 'import all' button inserts only 4 sprites a time right?

Thanks, I don't use his engine so I didn't have a chance to test it. I'll try with MrDs' base right now, post will be updated in a second.

UPDATE: Emerald works now :P

No, there is no current patch for either FireRed or Emerald yet, but he's referencing Wichu's sprite editor, which has an insert all tool. You need to label all the sprites 0-400 or whatever the correct number is and it'll completely insert them all if they're in the same file.

As for Emerald, you could either wait for MrDollSteak's fork of the project that adds animation frames, or you can disable animation completely and just throw in the sprites.

FYI: some of them don't match up correctly palette-wise for whatever reason in Emerald, you might want to get an alternate set for whenever that happens.
