FireRed hack: Pokémon Shiny Gold!

    Zel could just look on sappy.

    Yes, it is on Sappy, but on R/S/E, not in FireRed or LeafGreen.
    In any case it should be ported. It isn't remixed either, it's using the same instruments, it just sounds different because the sound engines in GBC and GBA are different.
    In my opinion, that track sucks... it only has 3 Channels and its the same as in Crystal GBC. Other tracks in Pokemon GBA roms can have up to 10 Channels. Just imagine the difference of having 3 instruments compared to 8,9 or 10. Plus it wouldn't fit overall between other tracks.
    Anyway, unless you completely port the track from RSE, Zel would have to change the instruments on the track to use the ones from another existent voicegroup (in other words, remix it) or either create a new voicegroup for a newly imported MIDI...

    Anyways Zel, be sure to re-check the Cherrygrove song, the volume is too high and sounds like it stands out too much from the rest of the tracks of the game. To my taste, the instruments don't blend much.
    It's just my opinion. I completely played Beta 4, but not Beta 5, so I don't know if you've re-inserted other tracks XD Great work though.

    It's kinda spamming...
    Zel himself will understand it, and so will others.
    And there is nobody in this forum that doesn't speak english.
    Plus... using net translator sucks. It doesn't translate it well.
    Specially that part that translated "That track sucks..."
    The translated part sounded a little bit porno o_O lmao
     

    Luck

  • Cool Hack I have bin playing this game for a while now. Sweat but can you tell use something about evolving pokemon you normally have to trade to evolve?

    Hey you changed some of the sprites for the starter Pokemon. Heh, nice.

    Hehe I just remembered that if you save state right before you pick the pokeball, you can try over and over without the risk of the wild pokemon healing, or dieing from poison, it's cool. Don't fix it please.

    O and you have to load and save state over and over. Here it is step by step. 1 save state when you are in the poke balls pocket. 2 pick poke ball. 3 if you don't catch the pokemon load state and repeat till you catch the pokemon. saves money and poke balls.

    I use Excel 2003 and it works fine. Just click the up button or Ctrl+F and find which pokemon you want...

    Look in the first post, I believe it's in the tourist center. It's an excel file with all locations.
    By the way, there's an small correction I'd like to make: I forgot to expecify the Wingull locations. It's like this:
    Route 32, Safari Zone, south, west areas.
    It should be this way:
    Route 32. Surf: Safari Zone, south, west areas.
    Not anything big, but i'm really perfectionist. xD

  • Don't expect updates very soon because of zel's exams.

    You have to be patient and wait while zel does his exams for beta 6.

    Zel is going to make beta 6 as good as he can with a few new certain pokemon to be found...

    Thats not the problem. Every time I open the excel file up I keep getting a error and it shuts down. Its too complex to explain clearly.

    Is there another program that can open xls files?

    this game was a challenge hope you make another version

    I hope he takes a looong break once he's finished with this xD

    Maybe he'll do the smart thing, and forget about hacking until after he's through college and has a steady job.

    I may be new but even I know that that has been said hundreds of times. Ah, if only the powers of searching were widely used. Well I would like to say they besides from a few things this hack by far is better than the rest. Keep up the good work Zel.

    yeah in my opinion the only flaw i find with this hack is that it doesn't include D/P pkmn(not even legendaries) but asides from that this hack is awesome,zel just wanted to let you know that i love the new palettes from beta 5.

    What? That's not a flaw -_-
    There are fewer than 15 hacks that actually include DP Pokemon!

    Well you're right i misused the word "flaw",i think it would best be stated as something that is missing, because even though D/P pkmn weren't originally included in Gold(obviously) i still believe that new generation pokemon should've been included in this remake as a bonus feature.The game itself is awesome so i won't complain,this is just my opinion,don't worry too much about it.
