Alright, thanks. And of course, here it comes: What exactly does the 9999BP one do? I mean, I know what it does, (don't wanna spoil it for others) but is it necessary for a sidequest or something?
Yeah, it's necessary for one specific sidequest.
(There's a time limit with it.)
So Team Darkness of dark energy would be similar to a leadership hierarchy kinda similar to Cipher? You know, like an organization with delegated administrators, bodyguards, or benefactors? As opposed to just random mini-bosses most villainous teams have.
Kinda, yeah. There is the leader (who Maxime came to see in the intro cutscene), Maxime himself (won't spoil his part in the team), General (that lady you see in Granaldo City) and Captain. Apart from them, there may be other persons "at similar level" to the Captain who you will run into later in the game when you approach the HQ of the team.
When I patch the 3.1 version to the 4.0 version I cannot use fly anymore. I have the badge for it. My charizard knows fly. I am not in the area that doesn't permit me to fly around I just simply cannot fly anywhere anymore. Anyone else have this problem? Is there a glitch that isn't reported? Am I not patching the game properly? Please don't ask "are you in the new area?" because I've already answered that. Please help!
Actually, I was just going to say that you've probably done something wrong, but then I remembered...
That is one of the reasons why I asked people to start over from the beginning instead of using beta 3.1 save file. You will never get Fly working if you use beta 3.1 save - that is because it's using "game over sequence fly protection" to prevent Fly from working.
You should really start over from the beginning though! There are lots of other things there that may not work either, and besides, you'll see a lot of new stuff if you re-start the game as well.
Hi there,
It must've been 7 or 8 years since I was in a forum. And the reason I'm now here is to keep updates on the progress of Dark Energy. I've played a few hacks and none were comparable to yours.
Thank you for creating such a great game based on the greatest (in my opinion) version of Pokemon (silver). I'll make sure that my kids (in the future) play this game and not those newer versions with over 600 pokemon...
Do you have an estimate on when you will be done with this hack (I'll wait as long as need to anyway, just asking)? I know you have already spent years on it, which I find remarkable.
Thank you :) I'm glad you appreciate the work I have put into this.
I have actually no idea when this hack will be complete. There is another interest I have that I should even spend much more time on than rom hacking (specifically, bowling). I've had a habit on trying to do my very best at everything I start doing, and recently, bowling had taken over the time from rom hacking.
I'll probably get back to editing Dark Energy pretty soon though, but really, I have no idea when it will be done (or when I'll even get the next beta release out). But the hack ought to be done someday :)
