FireRed hack: [Hack of the Month 2008] [BETA 2 OUT!] POKéMON MARBLE - The long life - 4/1/08

[Teh Baro]

I knew Explosion would be an HM for 3 reasons:
~You can't go back to the beggining city without booming some rocks in Moleman Hills
~Dive is in Firered... but has got no uses. Also you know those darkblue tiles in firered? Those were supposed to be diving tiles.
~Professor(insert name here)'s house exploded!

-exactly. Also, a moleman says that he tried with all the usual hms, but it would take a big explosion
- I'll try to give dive some use, at least in a certain place.

-Actually that has nothing to do with that. It was not an explosion, someone just exploded his house. It's part of the story... who burned his house?

Also, it won't be fully an HM, It will be through a move tutor that doesn't stop teaching you the move explosion. (I wanted to modify the HM8, but I have no idea how to)

Something tells me that... Phatom did something related to this...

Jackpot!

Also, thanks to zel I know how to edit the hm, so explosion won't be thorugh a move tutor.
Now, I'll check move tutor scripts and such and change the move that the explosion tutor teaches, and use it in a ninjice statue.

 

[lanroxas]

May I suggest something? FALSE SWIPE(but you'll have to edit most of pokémons...)

EDIT: You need to put some spoilers when you say those things like... Jackpot and such... people want to play and know things by themselves XD

 

[azn_tomato]

I have not yet played (waiting for a flash cart, i know i won't play through again...), but i was wondering if this certain pokemon from Quartz is back?
I dont remember the name but it was a electric bunny and i always thought of the energizer bunny...totally my favorite pokemon ever.

 

[Virtual Chatot]

Baro, I played the beta...

This is the best hack I have played in a long time. You and your workers have put a lot of work into this game.

I'll be sticking around :3

 

[lanroxas]

Baro... can you put Freech back? I just loved it! And Wrestmilk family too? What about your "Salamence"(cant remember name...)

False swipe... hmmmm
Sorry for the spoiler :p but people would just clic it. They can't refrain themselves. At least I can't.

Spoiler:

Anyways, there's a lot of more stuff to spoil on that. PS: see? you clicked!

Actually it WAS inspired in the energizer bunny. But I don't think it'll be on marble...

... Although maybe Freech will be back. It was one of my favourites from the old ones too. But it won't be on garna. (i.e.:it'll be in the other regions, in national pokedex).

As for tenry, wrestoro and wrestmilk... hmmmmno

My workers? :3

This hack's looking great still, Teh Baro. I hope to see some more updates through the Beta's, I'll look around the thread more often too.

Good luck.

Right now I've just saved the 4th gym tileset. It'll be a factory-like place with steam pipes that will push you around (an old puzzle with a new look). When I put it to work, I'll post some pics/vids/something. But that'll be later because I g2g to the dentist now.

 

[Lady Berlitz]

That's cool. That reminds me of a lot of classic games I've played... especially once where ice comes out of the ground and freezes you, etc.
I can even imagine that event without a video!

It's not an event itself, it's a tile behaviour that already exists. Like in Rocket Casino Basement in celadon or viridian gym. But the fact that it won't be a weird tile that magically pushes you whirling around, it's something more logical when you see it.

 

[Virtual Chatot]

You're doing this all by yourself? o_o;

*gives crate of rum*

*accepts rum, but suggests Jose Cuervo for next time*

Yes. Same as quartz, I'm working alone. It's more work, but you don't have to argue with nobody, and you don't have to organize stuff, so the progress is faster since it's lineal.

 

[Link119]

hmmm...looks intresting...i havent played Quarts, so i was wondering...is every pokemon in your game new?(i mean like...not from the older batches)...

 

[Virtual Chatot]

*calls pub*

Amazing that you made the sprites all by yourself as well...

I have to say, I love the mapping and the storyline, its well...awesome

 

[Antwhan]

*crashes the pub party*

wow, baro that's quite astounding, i mean i knew u were good, but not that good...

Cheers!

 

[~*Pikafan*~]

Whoa, this is amazing. This and Quartz by yourself? I don't even know how you did it.

(Even though there were a few bugs in Quartz...)

I still can't believe it. After Marble is done, you've gotta show me a bunch of things you did.

 

[Teh Baro]

Thanks for the support guys.

Here. Some pics from the fourth gym (no trainers yet). When you step on the steam things (which are animated, they were flowers in the original) at the end of the pipes, you get pushed in the direction of the pipe (spinning around until you hit a wall or more steam). Some of them can't be seen too well because of the fog. It's not a too complicated puzzle but it's fun when you step somewhere by mistake and you get pushed to the door of the gym (I though that would run the warp, but it doesn't. Aw... too bad. It would be fun to be kicked out of the gym).

When I put the trainers, I'll check if they can 'see' you while you are being pushed. If so, you'll be able to avoid trainers by doing this.
Edit: Tested. No. Damn. Weeeeell. ¯\(º_o)/¯

Anyway, it's a cute and funny fire-type gym with a big-.bearded fire-type leader. Enjoy.

Next TODO: edit the trainers, add the advicer (hm, in fire red's erika's gym your fan isn't there, is he afraid of girls or what?), edit the leaders and then go on to new routes.

 

[Coolboyman]

that seems like an awesome concept for a gym, keep up the great ideas.
