I almost hate to ask, since I know this wasn't the intended purpose of your hack, which seems like you've put a lot of work into and done a lot of great things with. But, is there any way you could release a patch with just the visual changes, and not the mechanics changes? Primarily I like the "Kris" changes but the Pokemon sprite updates are neat too - I just want to play the game much closer to its original form.
Edit: When I say "visual" changes I'm including the decapitalization, even the name change in-game to "Kris" from "Lyra," and stuff like that, just not changes to, say, spawn location, movesets, and evolution mechanics.
There are some "Kris" patches available from other folks but they are either incomplete or I could not for the life of me get them to function. Your hack I've tested and it functions extremely well, and has the most visual appeal of any hack I've found. If it would be extremely difficult to separate those changes out from your others, I certainly wouldn't want you to go through all that trouble, but I just had to ask.
Basically, I will be playing the game alongside someone playing an unmodified version of it, and other than improving my visual experience while doing so, I want to have the "vanilla" experience.
