FireRed hack: Pokémon Oro Sole

[HackMew]

Dnag hackmew how did you do that!?

I've got a magic wand, but don't tell anyone. It's a secret!

I'd guess that its screenshots 1 3 and 4 that have asm coding in them. One cause thats a new frame added in. 3 Cause i assume thats going to be animated in some way and 4 again because i assume its animated... and kickass looking.

Great hack. Tbh it looks like this might be better than the official remakes...

 

[HackChu]

Above:I wouldn't go that far but it'd be hard to tell ;)

 

[Omega Zero]

Imo it looks better then the official remakes already Cause i played HgSs they were sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Boring Imo

No, i dont think so because Hackmew really hasnt kept us updated with his work and the official remakes are Awesome. I hate how all the people are crying for the official games to come out, and then they talk smack about it. You really need to appreciate the games that Gamefreak makes because YOU know that you enyoyed their games!

 

[HackChu]

Yeah I bet when I get SS Im going to have a blast that's for sure.

 

[HackMew]

Can anyone please stop talking about SG, LC, or whatever official/unofficial remake? If you think HG/SS are good, go play them but don't bother me.
All I can say is the official games missed, are missing and will miss some of the features I've implemented or I'm going to implement. Just because the thread isn't updated doesn't mean it's dead.
Let me remind you this is the Oro Sole thread. Please stay on topic, thanks.

Stating the obvious sometimes helps :P

well anyways, I think the lack of excitement is getting to everyone. I would expect some screenshots at this particular point. It's been a long time since we have last seen some updates. Also I keep having to say this, It doesn't matter how bad or good you hack is, or whatever people think about it. What matters is that you tried and you had fun.In other words, HackMew doesn't owe us anything special But it would be nice.

Agreed, but mostly the second part. I guess people are expecting more screenshots, but I'm not able to show anything so far. Eventually you will just be patient, and see it was worth it.

I don't know about everyone but the screenshots that are posted are pretty good signs of progression.
Mind you, the hack has been slowly restarted from scratch ;).
If people knew what it takes to do some of the graphics and features, they'd very well start to appreciate the hack.
I just want to add, how I love the remixed music and the thread layout overall. It brings back the memories of G/S/C without the hassle of a touch screen. I wish you best of luck with this :D

 

[.Tactic.]

This is ofcourse, An amasing hack, and that's just from the screens provided, Your use of Graphical hacking and ASM from the very start of the game amases me!

Anyway, I'd like to see some very beautiful tiles in this, i know that since it is Script heavy it probably wont have very custom tiles, but I'd love to see some, otherwise it seems like the ultimately improved version of Fire red but with the sstoryline of GSC.
Anyway, Good luck.

Thank you pal :)

Well, it's not like having a lot of scripts also means "not very custom tiles". I actually like the FR/LG default tiles, and all the tiles in Oro Sole will be FR/LG-styled. And that includes custom tiles too. IMHO, FR/LG feature the best 3rd gen graphics, and yeah, I don't see any reason to mix them with R/S/E/D/P/Pt/HG/SS tiles like others do, for example. Thanks anyway.

And now... the "solution" to the poll. I'm sorry but... I actually fooled you. 4 out 6 of those screens do required ASM. How come? Let's see...

The first one: the Warning Screen, probably the most obvious. Why? Because it's loaded before the title screen.

The third one: the Presents Screen. The original Game Freak image was only 16 pixel tall. I actually doubled the height and adjusted the coordinates as well. Other than that, ASM was required to load the English/Italian image.

The fourth one: the Title Screen. Apart from loading the English/Italian texts, ASM was required to get a proper blinking effect.

The sixth one: believe it or not, it required ASM. "Your name?" is actually translated accordingly, indeed. Same with the "Move", "OK" and "Back" parts.

A very nice speech. Trust me I know what you mean, it takes forever just to get started on the rom itself before going into the categorys everyone else does. I still haven't made it passed the first town with a gym badge yet because of other things. So yeah I'm sure HackMew is taking his time with his progress going swell, after all I want to play a hack that is well done, nice, neat and tidy :)

Thank you pal :)

I figuired on most of the screens you mentioned. But wow I can't believe you need ASM to make certain things lower-case like the "Your name?" and such...that sucks...

 

[Chimchar 9]

Why can't everyone wait? :S
Anyway people, I promise you that this will be better than shiny gold, and maybe LC.
HackMew, just one thing to say. "Good Luck!"

Just noticed this. Uh, well... I'm not really interested about comparisons. I believe people are smart enough to choose theirselves.
Other than that, thanks!

No, no. I didn't need ASM to lowercase that. But I need ASM to load either the English or the Italian one: "Your name?" vs. "Come ti chiami?".

 

[.Tactic.]

Whoa Hackmew! Thats really actually AMASING!! Your skill with ASM is extraordinary!

It's a bit embarassing I have to say "thanks" like, every post or two :P
But thank you. Oh, well... I wish I could talk you about some future ideas (that won't be in the first beta) I come up with, but I don't want to spoil the suprise :)

P.S. If you don't mind, my nickname has two capitals LOL

Oh okay. Yeah I just used A-Text to change that stuff :)

 

[.Tactic.]

I believe that he means that it can be said in either one.

For example you select English or Italian and it will ask the questions in either language.

Is that correct Hackmew?

 

[HackChu]

Well I don't know is that even possible? And A-text claims that it overwrit what I put in but it looked the same in-game. Oh well, I guess ASM is needed.
