I have something like a update to show you (little) progress still is being made!

Here it is:

Spoiler:

It's not the final Cave yet but it's still a w.i.p. of the Runsurf Cave!

And for Tropical Sunlight :D



Here is the new Henrique, credits go to Tropical Sunlight
Thanks Tropical and thanks for viewing this thread!

Best of luck from me!

Thanks man

Uhm, I can't really do something about it else than give you the fonts which you then put in your resource folder of your windows..

All people thanks for the comments and support!

While playing Rancher, I uploaded the initial game file (Pokémon Rancher Demo.exe) to other File Hosters, I hope you don't mind PoKéMaKeR ?

Spoiler:

RapidShare
SendSpace
EasyShare
File Factory
MediaFire

Exactly 1 hour Game Time has passed and I have 7 Pokémon and 1 Gym Badge

Very nice demo, I quite liked it, I do hope there will be more detail in those places I visited in this one as it did seem kinda plain

Now then;

• The Yellow and Red Text Box in Battle; Personally I don't think it looks right :?
• Hero Sprite, I personally don't think it is any good, it is the one from Diamond right ? I never really liked it to be honest and it doesn't seem to fit in with the other Sprites ?
• Starter Names, They don't see to imaginative for me, Maybe a re-think ?
• New Grass(The one where you can encounter Pokémon, Seems to plain and I don't think it fits the surroundings?
• Getting healed after 1st Rival battle, normally you get fully healed after it, I wasn't and almost lost in a wild encounter
• In-Battle Poké Sprites, Looks so weird seeing ?'s attacking each other O.o
• Team Galactic Sprites and Gym Leaders In-Battle Sprites look too big
• Some stuff needs to be De-Capitalized, I.E. Pokémon's names and etc...
• Haunted Mansion 1F; The Galactic guy in the bottom righ corner talked to me once and then a second latter said the same thing and battled me and it was a doubler battle with another person :? I had battled the person at the top and I battled the Mmddle person straight faterwards so maybe a glitch ?
• Buying Pokemon, nice, how about been able to sell Pokemon ?
• Relic Town, 4 Houses and only one availabe ? It wouldn't have mattered if it was arandom old person saying somethng random lol, There was also no-one to ask you if you knew how to catch a Pokémon or anything ?
• 1st Battle after Relic town, the person is called Mat, It looks weird, maybe with 2 t's ? also he says it's his 1st lose not loss.
• Gym Leader says 'asume' and not 'assume'

Look at the Defence Stat; Knocks the Number to the next line, Maybe De-Capitalizing them ?



Tile Error ?



Another Tile Error ? You shouldn't be able to see Grass moving through a tree :?


Overall tho, A very nice demo and well worth my time in it, I await the 2nd one

[Beam Me Up, Furry Bandit!]

That haunted Mansion is nice.

[Beam Me Up, Furry Bandit!]

Sorry for the double post but, the haunted mansion seems that so not haunted....
If you recoloured the Walls, Floors, with the furniture onto a new tileset then used it for the ghost place, then it looks better!

[EJames2100]

It's just a mansion that is dark and has a ghost Pokémon there, If I had a Ghost in my bedroom and it was always dark, I'd say it was haunted

[Beam Me Up, Furry Bandit!]

Still, I would edit the tileset a bit to make it more creepy.

[EJames2100]

Maybe, but I really don't think it's needed as the Mansion is still in-habited by people :?

Now that's something I can use!
No I don't mind you uploading the demo, as long as you don't claim it to be yours.
About the screens that'll be fixed

The Yellow and Red Text Box in Battle; Personally I don't think it looks right :?
What do you like to see then?
Hero Sprite, I personally don't think it is any good, it is the one from Diamond right ? I never really liked it to be honest and it doesn't seem to fit in with the other Sprites ?
I don't really feel the same, I do think I should change it, but that's not really needed right now.. (so that will be done eventually)
Starter Names, They don't see to imaginative for me, Maybe a re-think ?
I don't know if you know them, but they're not fake-mon, they're real D/P/P pokémon
New Grass(The one where you can encounter Pokémon, Seems to plain and I don't think it fits the surroundings?
Idem for this, it's originally D/P/P(?) so..
Getting healed after 1st Rival battle, normally you get fully healed after it, I wasn't and almost lost in a wild encounter
Good, that's handy I will change this
In-Battle Poké Sprites, Looks so weird seeing ?'s attacking each other O.o
I'm aware of this problem.. and I'm not sure but I think it is already fixed by wichu.
Team Galactic Sprites and Gym Leaders In-Battle Sprites look too big
I know but if I'd resize them to the correct sprite size (128x128) they would have sucked
Some stuff needs to be De-Capitalized, I.E. Pokémon's names and etc...
No, that's not right (look at real pokémon games, always capitalized)
Haunted Mansion 1F; The Galactic guy in the bottom righ corner talked to me once and then a second latter said the same thing and battled me and it was a doubler battle with another person :? I had battled the person at the top and I battled the Mmddle person straight faterwards so maybe a glitch ?
I have to look into that... :\
Buying Pokemon, nice, how about been able to sell Pokemon ?
That's difficult to do, so it's not yet implented, but I think I will (it's not a promise)
Relic Town, 4 Houses and only one availabe ? It wouldn't have mattered if it was arandom old person saying somethng random lol, There was also no-one to ask you if you knew how to catch a Pokémon or anything ?
I know, but I asumed (without s) all gamers would know that by now
1st Battle after Relic town, the person is called Mat, It looks weird, maybe with 2 t's ? also he says it's his 1st lose not loss.
Ok I'll change the name (your the second one to tell me that), and I'll change the typo
Gym Leader says 'asume' and not 'assume'
I'll change that too!

Well thanks for your comments!

No I disagree with that, it is haunted, there are ghosts, it doesn't have to be creepy, else I would have called it creepy mansion don't you think

That's right

No, not now maybe later.. It doesn't have top priority

Thanks for the comments people, be on the lookout for the next update!

Hmm. I can see you changed quite a bit. The battle screen looks the best out of the screenshots I can see so far; I like the colors of the HP boxes and text box. The D/P background is also a great touch, but I don't like the Kyledove's tiles; they're too overused. But of course, it's your choice to use the kind of tiles you want to use. Good luck, anyways. ;)

[~Kavin~]

This looks really good. Keep it up! :D

[Tropical Sunlight]

I can't wait to see new updates!
Tip: Change the tileset you're using for Runsurf cave

Yeah I really like those tiles, but you are right they're overused..
And if I want custom ones, I think I need some one to do it for me...
(hint) Well here ya'll go, I need a Tileset creator, if any one is up to the job, PM me!

thanks, and about the tileset see the other answer to Auistle
Thanks for the comment and support!

[Tropical Sunlight]

No, I meant other tiles in cave then outside of it.
There are a lot tiles out there, maybe Platinum? tiles is a good choice.
Or some else: DP, Saurav, FireRed, Kyledove (not this tileset),...

EDIT:
I have a new idealist, or whatever you guys like to call that,
initially it's him making up events and things
I like to introduce to you:

Red Gyrados

Oh, do you know where to get proper cave tiles D/P/P style then?

if so PM me, ok?

Thanks!

No I don't mind you uploading the demo, as long as you don't claim it to be yours.

Thanks and I just thought I'd help others if I could, Nowt like a bit of Variety when choosing to download and helps if one site has maintenance on or something and I'm certain I won't try to claim this game, I'm a player not a maker

Quote - The Yellow and Red Text Box in Battle; Personally I don't think it looks right :?

I may get used to it, It's just a big change in colours for me :?

Quote - Hero Sprite, I personally don't think it is any good, it is the one from Diamond right ? I never really liked it to be honest and it doesn't seem to fit in with the other Sprites ?

I'm not really a D/P fan as you probably guessed :D It's not a major thing tho

Quote - Starter Names, They don't see to imaginative for me, Maybe a re-think ?
I don't know if you know them, but they're not fake-mon, they're real D/P/P pokémon

Lmao, Well I did say I wasn't much of a D/P guy :D

Quote - New Grass(The one where you can encounter Pokémon, Seems to plain and I don't think it fits the surroundings?

Bleh, it sucks

Quote - Getting healed after 1st Rival battle, normally you get fully healed after it, I wasn't and almost lost in a wild encounter

Good good, only a small thing but a good thing none-the-less

Quote - In-Battle Poké Sprites, Looks so weird seeing ?'s attacking each other O.o

Yeah I figured lol, One of the weirdest things I have seen tho

Quote - Team Galactic Sprites and Gym Leaders In-Battle Sprites look too big
I know but if I'd resize them to the correct sprite size (128x128) they would have sucked

Lol, too big or too sucky, I'll take Too Big

Quote - Some stuff needs to be De-Capitalized, I.E. Pokémon's names and etc...
No, that's not right (look at real pokémon games, always capitalized)

Yeah, I thought it looked horrible myself but oh well

I had battled the person at the top and I battled the Mmddle person straight faterwards so maybe a glitch ?
I have to look into that...

Yeh I thought it was a little weird myself, I'll give the demo a re-run through sometime to see if I missed anything(It was about 3:30 Am for me)

Quote - Buying Pokemon, nice, how about been able to sell Pokemon ?
That's difficult to do, so it's not yet implented, but I think I will (it's not a promise)

Just an idea, Not necessary

I know, but I asumed (without s) all gamers would know that by now

Yeah I know lol, but there's nowt like at the start of the game, mashing the buttons to get by that little bit and I did always think myself that anyone who even looks into Hacks/Games would have played Pokémon before, this is the only game I've seen without that little bit added into it

Quote - 1st Battle after Relic town, the person is called Mat, It looks weird, maybe with 2 t's ? also he says it's his 1st lose not loss.

Just little Typo's


About the Mansion and Gym(I think), How about doing it like that 2nd Gym in R/S/E, Brawly I think, were you got a little more vision after each battle win
