You need to download Lunar IPS for patching IPS files and Tsukuyomi for UPS patches.

This hack is pretty neat, but I'm stuck like chuck. I've already beaten the gym leader in new gotham and have surf, however I can't find any pokemon compadable with it. Was I supposed to start with the water type?

Sometimes in a hack a specific starter can make a game easy but that does not means you cannot play with other pokes . Just use a strategy or power up your team to beat Chuck

When I said stuck like Chuck I was just rhyming xD.Because it looks like you need to surf(no where else to go), I'm just asking what to do because I can't find any water types in the wild.

Looks very vice :D But as someone else said some of the screenshots look a little plain.

I don't know whether you have this kind of a script in the game already, but if there are certain things you want people to know about the hack (engine hacks, moveset changes and such) before they start playing, have you considered building the information in the game?

Have a book or a thing similar to that in the main player's room. With multichoice options, you can choose the topic you want to read about and the book covers all the information about the hack you want to share. This would also solve the problem for those getting the hack elsewhere (most people gets these hacks from "less legal" sources, whether we want it or not).

Of course, README is there for stating people to read it. But still, probably less than 5% of people really do that, and I'm actually no exception (tend to check readme only if I have problems with getting the wanted thing to work).

So yeah, just a piece of advice. Do as you like, I personally will include this kind of a "feature" in my own hack.

Spoiler:

Also, one "nice" thing to include would be stating in the readme how to use the "corrupted" patch file which is included with the readme. So for instance, you would have to open the ips-file with Notepad, add "PATCH" in front of all the "hex data", and save it. Without "PATCH" being part of the ips-file, ips patching programs won't consider the file a patch file and... stuff won't work, hahha. Might be a bit cruel, but on the other hand, not really.

This way, you would "have to" open the readme to get things working.

It's easier to have a readme rather than to waste space adding all that text in-game, and also having to make it fit into the textbox. Plus it's not explanations about the game or anything, only future plans and stuff. :P

How far does the most recent beta go? Sorry if this was already asked.

[creug]

i think beta ends after the battle against mesa c.e.o. darwin. hinkage doesn't want to continue anymore on this hack, so that must be the end

Guys he means that you can also explore more region from that point. Also it is still developing I think but at a turtle speed due to the creator's busy life
