The purpose of saving some money out of those days of "shopping rage", I guess. That's enough to me.

But anyway, a bank script doesn't sound that easy to implement, lasthand. The thing is adding ammount to a variable, which is something I think I've seen HackMew and Baro doing, if I'm not mistaken.

Well, it seems you are having some fun with a long script. Just be careful, the longer the script, the easier to make foolish mistakes (yeah, that's my style... :P)

Bug...?
 
Hey thethethethe,

I was just wondering if that pre-beta on the first post was the origional one or the new 1? cause i found a bug lol

If you faint without visiting a Pokemon Center then you wind up in cinnabar gym, next to blaine, and the door is locked so u cant get out.

Even if the pre-beta on the first post isnt the one you are working on, this bug still might be in your version.

Happy Hacking,

~Cyro

He already fixed that a while ago. It said earlier in the thread.

Cyro_349 December 13th, 2007 4:19 PM

sry i musn't have seen it in the previous post regarding this bug... It is a great hack btw, im really looking forward to a new release.

~Cyro

thethethethe December 14th, 2007 3:17 AM

Thanks for answering Cyro_349's question ~*Pikfan*~.

Sorry, for lack of posting this week, but at least I've got good news. Here's the good news
  • I've been doing the bank script, bit by bit over the week so I'm checking for mistakes as I go. The bank script is almost complete, I just have a little bit left to go.
  • I've managed to fix my problem when inserting pokemon into the empty gaps. So I might delay myself slightly to insert them and have gible as another starter.
  • I've decided to re-do the way you'll recieve your first Pokemon. I don't want to give too much info away, I'll just say that it'll be a different way that I haven't seen in another hack before.
Hmmm...is there anything else I want to say..?
Oh, yes, since in all my attempts at indexing sprites Pokemon sprites, I've had no luck and they've all come out terribly. So if anyone can help me with that, I would be very grateful.
That's all for now.

destinedjagold December 14th, 2007 3:22 AM

nice updates, thethethethe. I'm too excited to see Gible! :P
Btw, I do think Esmas or Nicolas can help ya out with spriting problems. ;)

Wishing for the best of luck! ;)

Eletj December 14th, 2007 3:30 AM

This Hack looks brilliant! I cant wait to play it! Keep up the good work!

thethethethe December 14th, 2007 4:49 AM

I forgot something. I know what I said about the screens but I thought this one might be good to see.

That's one of the few D/P pokemon that I've got.

Great... Can you in anyway, make the number of pokemons bigger? And what about the pokedex? Sorry if i not sound smart, I don't know much about hack, More spriting... And what about the number which will apear in the side?

pkmnmaster69 December 14th, 2007 7:35 AM

Good to hear that thethethethe
i sure do hope to see more 4th gen pokemon

Good luck with the hack anyways.

thethethethe December 15th, 2007 3:25 AM

What do you mean by the number of the pokemon? Do you mean the name?
And that's a good question about the pokedex. Ummm, all these pokemon probably won't have Pokedex data (unless I find a way to fix that) but I guess since these Pokemon aren't supposed to be there, I could have someone there say that there is no data on these Pokemon yet.

Pokemon number (In Rom) 252 is 387, 253 is 388, 254 is 389, and so on. So in this screenshot (as well as the other one was in a copy of the rom, only for screenshot purposes, I remeber DJG's post, that screenshot is just for displaying, it won't be caught this early into the game, and won't be at level 5), you can see that Roserade is Number 387.

And do you also know how to change the types? Because if you replace Roserade with something and it's type isn't changed, then it just seems weird.

Anyways, hope the bank script works and hope you get everything in.

I was having problems with it aswell, for quite a while, the rom seemed to crash everytime, the image was to appear. But I eventually found the right way to do it.

Of course I can change the type. Just need to use Amplifier or a hex editor. You can see in the screen above.

After some terrible first attempts, I managed to get the hang of indexing sprites. I managed to get 13 sprites done so far (and found 6), only 33 more to go.:(
Hopefully, I can get some more done in the next couple of hours.

Dragonsfreak December 17th, 2007 7:11 AM

looks like a great hack

Take your time mate, we're all rooting for you

CrazyLuigi December 17th, 2007 2:41 PM

Just some friendly criticism:A level 6 Pidgeotto on the first route is far too strong for the beginning. :s

DragonTamerScrappy December 17th, 2007 2:48 PM

another thing is that are you gonna change the levels of evolution for the starters?
have like bagon evolve at 18 and again at 40?
or dratini 22 and again at 38?
its just that waiting for your starter to evolve at 30 and again at 55 and 50 seems too long

destinedjagold December 17th, 2007 3:14 PM

I do think he already removed that Pidgeotto problem. and it would probably remove the fun if he'll edit the starters' evolution levels. :/
But it's just what I think.., btw.

zel 2.0 December 18th, 2007 5:14 AM

Well, since you are adding DP Pokemon and the game goes around the Dragon Pokemon, I can expect Dialga, and specially Palkia around here, right? (Palkia <3)

I wonder how your bank script will look, oh well, nothing more, keep it up!

destinedjagold December 18th, 2007 5:19 AM

zel's to obsessed (is the spelling correct..?) with Palkia. :D

I do hope so thethethethe will include them. :)

And I do think the bank feature will be awesome. And it'll be useful if ever the player has already 999,999 bucks in his pocket. :P

keep up the great work, thethethethe. ;)
Spoiler:
That reminds me, how's the bank script that has 500+ lines..? :/

hi sir tomato my password is syvniti December 18th, 2007 6:26 AM

Thethethethe said that there already whas enough legends, and he had to plan event for them all, saa he woul't not include dp legneds, and he woult care more about completing the *evolution famelys*.... i think he said it in this thread(-: Peraonal i don't have big felings for the dp legends, My Diamond game die, So i never got more then 2 badges.

The Wave December 18th, 2007 1:43 PM

till now, it looks very good. I can't wait the first beta!

Virtual Chatot December 18th, 2007 4:22 PM

PalkiaDialga <3

I love the D/P Legend, but for now...I wouldn't mind them not being in here.

~Areku-San December 18th, 2007 6:20 PM

Hey, cool hack, you are a excellent scripter, (Almost as me), hehe.
Nah, just kidding...
Well, the sprites are cool, and the story.
Good luck!

+Sneasel™ December 18th, 2007 6:23 PM

I think that Dratini and Bagon should evolve at the same levels normal starters do
(16, 36)
Otherwise it will take too much time getting Salemence and dragonite.

thethethethe December 18th, 2007 11:49 PM

You'll just have to wait and see, for what I had planned for the elite four. The process involving the elite four will be different.

Ummm... Like sebbe17 said, I wanted to just use Evolutions of Pokemon that are found in previous Generations (Magmortar, Electivre, Leafeon, Gallade). But I've run into a bit of a problem. I only want to include Leafeon and Glaceon if I can make Eevee evolve into each of them. I've had a lot of help from Blazichu in trying to figure this out, but I've had no luck as of yet. If I can't figure out a way to do this, there should be room for Dialga and Palkia.

I'm taking it slow and I'm only going to insert D/P pokemon as they're needed, (except for Roserade). So I should only have Gible, Gabite and Garchomp in the rom. It's just in case I change my mind and I decide to do something differently.

Want to know how the bank script looks?
Spoiler:
It's long:D
I'll hopefully post a video of it sometime soon.

16 - 36 is a bit low, don't you think? That would just take the fun out of it. They're Dragon Pokemon, and I think they should still have that challenge involved with raising them.
Earlier in the thread I did decide that they they're levels of evolution would be lowered, but not by too much. Maybe something around...
1st evolution > 2nd Evolution, 24
2nd evolution > 3rd Evolution, 45
But I'd have to search thread to get the exact decision that was made but if you really wanted to know what the decision was, you can search the thread for it.
