When I walk from one back corner of the gym to the other, the rival suddenly appears out of thin air by the gym's door.

It only happens if I approach from the right side. I dunno if this is just the rest of the game waiting to be made or what, but thought you'd like to know.

Thanks!

Thanks. :P

Anyway, just doing some things and making progress upon the game. I finished mapping the route above Mekong City. And now I'm getting to scripting the third gym. Which will be tedious because of setmaptile events. :3 Oh well, feast your eyes upon some progress.



Screen 1: *sigh* Gym Leaders, 'ey?
Screen 2: Max wants you to do something for him?! o;
Screen 3: I wonder what the reward was? A battle? yes that is a custom quagsire made by chibi robo
Screen 4: Gym preview. :3

Credits:
Chibi Robo - Quagsire sprite
The Master - Gym map
Jesse [TB Pro] - HP boxes

Firstly:

Screen 1: *sigh* Gym Leaders, 'ey?

Max that is one sexy Quagsire right dere.

Hai gaiz we changed the Gym at the last minute so that preview shot is outdated. I'ma make a new map once Harry has inserted some tiles. Oh, by the way, the third gym is all mien :DDDDDDD

Keep up the great work, bud.

[Osher99]

You are an high level hacker
This hack is wonderful.
Waitin' for updates=]

I made a list of bugs that I encountered having played up to Colt Path. Before I begin, I'd like to point out a few general errors errors that should be fixed:

• More than once, there was an error with the jingle that plays when the player receives an item, notably from the the PokéMart representative and the guy in the PokéCenter in Nile City
• People in general talk funny. I mention the old lady guarding the exit of the starter town in the screenshots but a lot of people's dialogue is unnatural
• Kevin (my rival) starts out really nice by giving me a present but then all of a sudden he's graffitiing obscenities on road signs. As I mention in the bug list, consistency is key
• Doesn't having trainers on the first route (besides the rival) seem a little quick to you?

Okay, here we go:

Spoiler:

Shouldn't it be Prof. Marsh?


Two things here. 1) What's Kevin doing down there? 2) the guy by the cut tree isn't there


This is where he should be...


There he is!


Should be "eh?"


Yeah, the number three always bugged me too.


Fragment


Unnecessary comma (I saw a lot of these)


Should be "phenomenal"


Should be "...up to you to nuture..."


'S' needs to be de-capitalized


I noticed that you switch between "PokéBalls" and "Pokéballs". Consistency!


When did Oak get here? (to spare you, I didn't take a screenshot of every menu in which he speaks)


Do you really expect me to read that?


There he is again!


She talks pretty informally for an elderly person


Wait, now he's not there?


How can he see that if he's facing the wall?


I forgot why I took this one but I think it had something to with the jingle that plays. If my memory serves me, I believe that the jingle plays after the text box has already disappeared.


Catch me up on what?


The mom's healing script doesn't play the jingle. :(


Again, the text doesn't match the person


I think the words "research" and "laboratory" should be capitalized.


Okay, this is okay if I activate the script from this tile but...


...here, not so much


Hm, this sounds familiar...


That's an awfully dark name for a first route, don't you think?


What is it with this guy and not facing the people he's talking to?


And he still won't tell me what he's going to catch me up on!


Fragment


I think you were trying to make the person's speech seem natural but it doesn't work in the video game medium very well


Unnecessary comma


"There have been..."


When was the last time you heard someone say, "I live in the bottom right hand corner of New York"? Try to stick with NSEW


From my experiences, flowers don't reflect images


..... go on...


Should be "iTouch" :D


Well while you're busy talking to the Bug Catcher, I'll just go down this route here...


Should have two 't's .... but yeah, he's right


Try ["] in XSE for the opening quotation mark


Should be "isn't"


Typo


Unnecessary comma. There were so many of these that you might consider going through all your script again and searching for them


I forget what happened here but I'd be willing to bet it was that troublesome jingle again


Two tile errors with the mountain, one where the coast meets the mountain and the other where the path edge meets the mountain. But I like the way you put the coast on the bottom layer of the mountain-over-sea blocks. Nice touch


More unnecessary commas...

A few things that I didn't get screenshots of:

• Zigzagoon gives out an awful lot of EXP...
• Also, why does it only use growl? If it's because you don't want the player to lose, remember that you can lose in the battle with OAK's explanations
• When Kevin challenges me on Heathen Pass, there's a pause between his speech and his challenge text
• The old man who shows me how to catch Pokémon and hands out the Teachy TV disappears before getting completely offscreen

I'm enjoying it so far but it's not enough to clinch my vote for HotM. Identity is giving your hack a run for its money. We'll see if the rest of the beta can change my opinion ;)

[Manipulation]

Finally, a long post. ANYWAY, I've fixed a lot of that in the beta 1.1 version. :D I'll check out the others later though.

[Manipulation]

Okay, so I finished scripting the third gym. :D I got some screenshots here for y'all. I'll also have a video in six hours as youtube tells me. ;~;



How do the walls come down? Wait and find out. :D

Edit: Oh, I have these from a new event too.

[Tropical Sunlight]

Looks interesting. What is that white-ish thingy?

[Spherical Ice]

They've all been reported before.

Harry even mentioned on the list of bugs/oddities/glitches about the last one. -.-

Great update, Harry. I wish I were less ignorant about the leg---SPOILER BLOCK.

[Manipulation]

Ugh, I already know all that stuff. Can you bother to check the official release post and read through the thread before reporting thing. u_u

edit: And all those typos/script bugs are fixed in beta 1.1. I only condone playing the fixed beta. :(

EDIT: I don't see a bug section :?

and where it says authors it says : Manipulation instead of The doctor

[Spherical Ice]

If you look back one page, where the official release post is, then you'd see the bug list.

That battle is of me, Haroun, battling the third Gym Leader, Haroun.

Credits to Chibi Robo for Mallmag.
I decided the team and their attacks and mapped the gym.
The Doctor did the rest. 8D

[Banjora Marxvile]

Nice vid. Only 1 real complaint, and even then i am unsure. Don't the Gym Leaders have different music from the battles, as that didn't sound like the Gym Leader music... I think, so... Harry, please look a little at that... Unsure really. Nice battle anyway!

[NiKaNoRoU]

Hey, that's one nice fakemon Max did there.

And, lol, that Ninetales must be a pain. Hypnosis and psychic? :/

[nerdo]

[chrunch]

Beta 1 was great, I spent hours searching for the letter, and only After I found it was when I noticed the hint...

I know. And well, Manipulation is my most favoured persona so it's staying as Manipulation for a while.

What? There are no Shroomish in Colt Forest. Only Colt Path. However, Treecko is available in Colt Forest.

Sorry, but I had to lol. And thanks anyway.

Updates:


Screen 1: Informing you of something. (I've changed this map btw. Just took the screenshot pre-changing.)
Screen 2: Team Rocket event! :D

[Hiche..]

This is probably the first time I actually played a hack, and I must say..it's great. I see you have put a lot of work on it.

Nice updates by the way. I can't wait for the next release.
Best of luck on this.

Well, I don't really have anything to show. :D

Here's something from Team Rocket HQ. Explains some things.

Spoiler:

‘I am the chosen one. I will lead us forward and onto our widely deserved victories. Giovanni was weak! He fell multiple times, he couldn’t handle the pressure! On this date, he died! He was poisoned, and you know by whom? Myself. Yes, I killed the once great former leader. Now, we are free to make our own intentions! We don’t need to aim for world domination, only the destruction! We will capture Voultan’s two kings! We will unleash them upon each other and their feud will be continued. Resulting in the demolition on Voultan! Who’s with me?! TEAM ROCKET!’

[hugepokefan13]

hey just want to congrat you on making a amazing hack i loved it and looking forward for the next beta + good luck (:

[Sarcastic Prince]

For some reason, I can't seem to be able to open the IPS File.
Please reupload a new file, Doctor.
I recommend A-Patch over IPS.

As you can see, A-Patch is more advanced.
