Pokemon Dawning Silver
 
First of all my friend and I are new to rom hacking but we are already underway.
Dawning Silver is not a silver remake but a combination of fire red and silver.
You start in Kanto
Three Regions included
Kanto, Johto, Orange Islands
Orange Islands have 8 gyms (4 more than in the anime)
Baby Legendaries

Main recurring characters:
Gary
Gold
Silver
Red
Blue
Green

Storyline:
Pt 1 Pallet town
-same until recieving starter except for an expanded pallet containg an extra house for the triplets
Your character and gary(nameable) recieve your starters with gary choosing the super effective starter
Silver bursts in and grabs the non-effective starter. He is followed by Gold who pushes prof. oak out of the way and grabs a pikachu off prof. oak's desk. You and gary decide to double battle them using your pokemon. (first battle)
The Johto duo run off and the triplets (red, green and blue) enter and receive their corresponding starter from oak.
Gold and Silver then re-enter followed by elite 4 lorelei who gets them to apologize. prof. oak accepts the apology before saying they can keep they pokemon they took as a gift.

Pt 2 Viridian City
When you arrive and head to the pc the triplets, the duo and gary are already there and say they'll meet you at the gym located in the northern half of the city. You arrive and are told by a trainer that the leader is out but is too powerful for rookies anyway before suggesting you head to pewter city. When you reach the viridian forest you will find gary who says that the triplets headed through together and so did the johto duo but he couldn't get through by himself. He then suggests you go through together and the two of you team up.

Pt 3 Pewter City
You arrive and gary heads off saying he'll meet you at the gym.
When you reach the gym ther is no trainers prior to brock.
Spoiler:
speak to brock and he starts to introduce himself before his mum comes in and says she wants to battle him. brock refuses saying he has a challenger but she fights back saying she'll team up with him to fight you. gary enters and says that it's a good idea and that he'll partner up with you for the battle
=Leader Brock & Brocks Mum=
geodude x2
onix x1
poliwag x1
wartortle x1
shellder x1

Exit gym and head towards pc will be stopped by team rocket grunt outside the museum
gary pushes past the grunt to find out what is going on while you are left to of course battle this grunt before investigating what tr are doing at the museum on 1f you will vs a grunt superviser who has a rattata and a zubat
gary then returns and tells you about tr

Much Further in: Whirl islands
Spoiler:
When you reach the islands on your way to cianwood you will see team rocket members encircling a whirlpool in the middle of the centre island (yes we are adding a fifth whirl island) when two lugia rise out of it (1 adult 1 baby) the leader then brings out his dark arcanine and repeatedly attacks the adult lugia and kills it (actually dead not just fainted) you then step in to protect the baby lugia but the arcanine attacks you. the lugia from shamuti island (orange isles) flys in and saves you and releasing the arcanine from its dark bonds causing it to turn on the tr members. you then obtain the arcanine and both lugia.

Overworld of Arcanine Complete for Whirl island event
(see avatar)

First Post :D!
Ok, that's not an Overworld.
How is it a Silver Remake with major differences if you start in kanto and the story mostly revolves around the orange Islands?
good luck, I guess.

An overworld sprite is a sprite you see when your walking around, like if you see a pokeball on the ground or a person walking around, that's generaly an Overworld sprite.
But to tell you the truth, this is nothing like silver, there are hacks that contain Jhoto, but aren't remakes.

I could also say that I was making a Yellow remake where you start out in Sinnoh and you have a Pachirisu as a starter, and you never end up going to Kanto. But when someone says that I was "making a Yellow remake" I could just say, "but I said there were major differences!"

You should never edit a battle sprite to make an overworld, for there are tools to do such things for you. -_-

That said, work hard, and you might just get noticed.

The Orange Islands were not in Pokemon Silver Version.

um i said i edited the Out of battle poochyena sprite

Vrai November 26th, 2008 7:19 PM

Really? I'm sorry, I musta been half-asleep. Either way, it would probably be better for you to just use the Arcanine Mystery Dungeon sprite, rather than make your own.

Your gonna need something now, Blazichu probably already read what you said in the storyline, that's what makes this thread not-so-popular.

( please stick with this shell )

Oromisrules November 27th, 2008 11:54 AM

The Name
 
Hey amtrax if you havn't already guessed yes this is oli. The name dawning silver was born from the baby lugia's name when you rescue him right?

Vrai November 27th, 2008 12:12 PM

Try not to triple post, please. Edit your previous post if you must add more.

Oromisrules November 27th, 2008 2:46 PM

Well, I said that before you added it.

PiplupGHacker November 27th, 2008 9:46 PM

Awesome!! I remember green from the comic books, she was a freaking awesome ninja/spy xD

Zennyo Ryūō November 27th, 2008 11:02 PM

Hmm. I don't think that you'll be able to pull this off. Experienced hackers have tried to revamp Gold and Silver, but failed. I don't think that someone who doesn't know what an overworld is will be able to. Do you know how to map? Or script? And I'm assuming you don't know how to sprite, looking at your avatar.

Now, my reason for posting. You shouldn't post the plot like you have. It seems like a walkthrough, rather than a storyline. Try posting a concise summary, without revealing any spoilers. Look at other threads for inspiration.

Well in the original manga, she's blue, but in english, they translated it to green :P.

No, he said he was going to make a remake with "major differences", well those differences make it so that saying this is a remake is a lie, but he still thinks it is.

Cheesymitten November 28th, 2008 7:05 AM

Looks good that thumbnail picture looks awesome i hope it turns out great.

Well, that doesn't exactly make it any easier. This just backs up my original point.

amtrax November 29th, 2008 11:00 PM

hey can any of you help me, ive got advance scropt working with the rom fine but while im editing either the lab map and go to save or one of the extra maps (the triplets room) it will come up with a random message and sort of half save. with the triplet room it will randomly make 255 of each event and once you sort that out it will randomly make the map into a single black square and delete all the events

oops sorry i meant advance text but ive managed to avoid the problems this time and pallet town is fully functional
btw can someone give me a link to a tool that i can use to edit the title screen and/or the trainer's sprites in the introduction

Vrai December 1st, 2008 2:44 AM

Look in the toolbox. There's a tool called UNLZ.gba. Download it.

Then, look in Documents & Tutorials. There ought to be a tutorial on redoing a title screen. Look at it.


Also, don't use Advance-Text. Learn how to script.

amtrax December 8th, 2008 6:41 PM

ok i have finished editing route 1 and am currently editing viridian city to make it match
if someone can give me some tips for scripting they would be appreciated

also if anyone wants to help feel free to ask in this thread

amtrax December 10th, 2008 7:00 PM

demo
 
at what stage should i start thinking about releasing a first demo?
i was thinking about releasing one once i manage to fully script pallet town and viridian city

Ki77y666 December 10th, 2008 7:43 PM

I can script if u still need it. PM me with the answer and or Q's.
