Pokemon Redemption
1 Attachment(s)
IntroductionHello all! This thread is for the hack Pokemon Redemption. I'm josh354 (You can call me Sully.) My co-owner is adamb241. (You have to ask him what he wants to be called.) I came up with this idea some time ago, but I never had much time to work on it until recently. I started scripting and mapping (very, very, poorly), and I liked the outcome enough to get some others to help work on it with me. This is what we have now.

Great news! Alpha Version 1.0 is out! Please give me some feedback on it. Here are some things I will try to add/edit before next release: 1. Title Screen 2. Oak Intro 3. A couple of new sprites That's all I have for now :D. |
This looks decent and your text strings are pretty funny xD
I should try this sometimes :) |
Ohhai dere Blake, it's good to see the thread up.
But why am I not in it? :X |
Quote:
What did you help out with :/ I wasn't aware you were helping :o Oh and Sully imma test the beta now :D I'll give you a report on msn k? |
Quote:
Oh, and if you're including beta testers on the credits list, I should be in there, too, right? |

O, I see.... kk :D And i'm not a full beta tester :/ I'm more general helper or judger of ideas kinda thing :) |
I agree with DG, this is better than shiny gold.
But I'm stuck, I've got the password for the cave, "start". But the guard says "INCORRECT!". Is it the end of the alpha? |

Quote:
Thanks for the compliment, but you have to remember that Shiny Gold is a remake. That makes it hard to compare the two because they are two different types of hacks. And like NiKa said, that isn't the end of the alpha. Be creative with your thinking and you will figure it out eventually :D. |
Quote:
But on the other hand I played redemtion the entire alpha...and found quite the amount of gliches ^^' I'll post em on our sercret place k *hint hint nudge nudge, umbreon* they are all minor script typos, script you forgot to write in stuff :D Maps were excellent :) but that route where you meet nadia, in my opinion, was way too long thats one huge map u had there ^^' thats all PS. PKMN 4EVA!!! |

1) Change the pallettes to be more "lively" 2) Change the OW to be less lively 3) which is where you come in and make some :P |
Huzzah! I spy a small part of my map :D
I'm not really a fan of the No-Gyms-Until-You've-Finished-The-Game idea unless you've changed it since we last talked about it, but I guess its just me. Also, that kid who says "Are you crazy" in the Screenshots doesn't have blue text like all of the other manly men in the game :S Anyways, I wish you luck with this, and I am always standing by ready to help, if needed. |

|
Finished the alpha...
Very clever password... I wont mention why here, so I don't spoil it for others, but maybe you should change the password to 'Enter'.;) |
your hack is great but if you changed all tiles you could also change the tiles of inside or at least change the colours in the same style as outside......
|
Quote:
I like gym battles :D Quote:
|
the outdoor tiles no need to change, they are really good, just the indoor tiles should have the same style as the outdoor ;D

Quote:
That is thanks to JPAN, and not everyone uses 'enter', so people will have to figure it out :D. Quote:

Eye Candy
UPDATE: Here are the next couple of maps that will be in the game. Both done by adamb241.
Jasper Cliffs Spoiler:
No name on this one yet Spoiler:
And here is a rough draft of the world map. Anything is subject to change and as of now nothing is set in stone. Left Side: Maiestas Right Side: Estille World Map Spoiler:
|
Nice maps, the world map, I hope looks much better in the good copy.
|
Ok so I'm playing the Alpha, and these are the bugs so far that I have found(btw I'm not done with the Alpha yet)
1)Step outside of your hous, take 4 steps down, 2 steps to the left, 1 step down and you will see your reflection on the flower(like if that was water, now this might be an error, from when you inseret the tiles or something) 2)In Treasure Beach, the sign next to the rock, the words are all messed up. 3)When you go to run an errand for your gramps, if you talk to the "Messanger Guy", but you talk to him by the side, he wil turn, but it will look weird(its like he turns, but at the same time its like from the neck down the body is stil facing forward) 4)The second sign in route 201 says "Make sure to stop at a Pokecenter if you parties health is getting low." I it should be "if your parties", not "if you parties". (for got the "r") 5)In Pechip town, the sign infron of the pokecenter and pokemart says "Pokemon can eat berries to gain heath and other attributes during a battle. You spelled "heath" instead of "health".(forgot the "l") 6) When the grunt comes to take the player, Arnold says "recking havoc", it should be "reeking havoc". (you forgot the other "e", and it has no "c") 7)[Same scene as 6] The grunt says "This is none of your buisness", change "buisness" to "business". 8)In your house you have a walking permision error, the trainer should be able to take one more step towards the TV and the shelf and the cabbinat, but he cant. 9)The Guard that tells you to go tell his son somethings, he says something like "I have to stay longer that I thought", is should be "than" on "that". |
Oh yeah, I downloaded the Alpha a week or so, but haven't got around to finishing it. From what I played of it so far, I really liked it. I did notice, though, in your scripts that you use "\l" in a lot of your text breaks, and there's nothing wrong with it, but maybe you could use "\p" when they start a new sentence? It makes the person's talking sort of just run on. I use "\l" if their speech goes past the use of "\n".
And also, how did you guys find out how to give the PokeRus? I decompiled the script and just saw the use of a few Special commands, but still...I haven't seen PokeRus introduced in ANYONE else's hack before! |
@PEPITO1O1O: Thanks for finding all of those. I'll fix them up and then release a fixed alpha sometime soon.

10)If you talk to the boat at Treasure Beach, the game freezes. |
Whats with the ugly trees. i think you should add some color to them!
|
Quote:
Course I have very little say in this, but sully will figure some kind of solution, personally I wouldn't care. |
Ok I have an update and an announcement. First the update. I have added the next couple of events into the game. I took a video of the first one and added it to the first post. Here are the pics of what happens after:
Spoiler:
Ok and now for the announcement. Personally, I like the palettes the way that they are now. Unless everyone starts to complain about them, the chances of them changing are slim. There may be a few edits here or there but nothing drastic. Thanks for reading, please give me some feedback :D. |

Quote:
Eh, it's not major, so it's not really that big of a deal. But since there's going to be a couple Leaders scattered around, what do you get for winning against them? |
Quote:
I can't tell ya XD but it's actually impacts the game more than regular gyms, every gym battle furthers the story line revealing more and more...I think i've said too much but hopefully that satisfies your curiosity more :) |
Quote:
But other than that this hack looks great. I hope you finish it ;). |
The video looks great, But could you add me to the team now?

pretty cool..
nice tiles, but it would be better if u had a custom OW sprite for the trainer |
@ Machop: Thanks, we will try our best. :D
@ Chrunch: I just now updated the thread with all the newest team members. @ MewTwoReturns: The hero OW is in progress :D. I cannot say for sure when it will be done and inserted, but it is underway. |

Egh, this isn't that good, i wouldn't compare it to other hacks like people are doing. You're grammar is poor and there are descrepancies in your scripts such as no sound when there's an exclamation point and alot of text errors. Also, all of your interior tile sets are messed up. So i give this a 5/10 if i were to rate it, but I like your maps ^^
|
Quote:
Yes, there were many text errors, but I believe we have corrected most of the mistakes. I will try and upload a fixed alpha sometime soon. What exactly is wrong with the interior tilesets? I don't see anything wrong with them except that their palette doesn't match the exterior. Could you please tell me whats wrong? Also, "You're grammar is poor," sorry couldn't help but to lol at that one. :P Thanks for your feedback. |

He means you didn't put that little ding noise before the ! over the persons head.

Excuse my statement about the interior tilesets, I had a faulty rom that I patched it with, and hence the messed up interior tilesets. And to help you out with the 'ding' (which is sound 0x15) noise, take a tip from me, a expert from my peers evaluation. To get the closest and most accurate anatomy of nintendo movement scripting, set it up like this: If just a using #raw 0x62 (exclamtion point), i.e.: #org @move #raw 0x62 #raw 0xFE then set up the whole thing like this: ... sound 0x15 applymovement 0x__ @move waitmovement 0x0 pause 0x32 if there is movement before, such as this: #org @move #raw 0x10 #raw 0x10 #raw 0x62 #raw 0xFE then set it up like this ... applymovement 0x__ @move waitmovement 0x0 sound 0x15 pause 0x32 Hope this helped you out. Good luck on your future endeavors. |
First, I'll point out some of the bad things.
There are some grammatical and spelling errors which really bugged me. In addition to that, the text boxes often run too long during some dialogue bits. The first scene on the beach with your grandpa talking takes too long, and it feels too much like forced exposition. Remember that more isn't always better. A few of the lines seem rather stilted. Additionally, end text boxes and start new ones more often. At the very least, you should do this every time the character responds to something the Hero has 'said. Do that and a lot of the dialogue would flow better in my mind, and not feel like it was running on too much. I do like the premise, and I give you props for the interesting way the game starts out. I like how the beginning is a bit more slow paced and it takes longer to get your first Pokemon. It gives more time to just take things and it sets it apart somewhat. |

"recking" should be "wreaking" (you wreak havoc) In front of the Mart on the Beach; the person standing there says "ran", but the grammatically correct word would be "run" Nadia says "did't" when you first encounter her; it should be "didn't" There's nothing atrociously bad or anything, but there are some minor errors here and there could use some touching up. |

I will have a look at this hack now :)

Congrats, Josh! You're won the HotW! You should put it on the first page A.S.A.P. Anyway, nice scripting you've got there. |
Thanks for the banner H20, and I did :D. And thanks, it's nice to hear that someone likes the scripts, it motivates me :D.

well how about you show off some of the new sprites we've been working on ;) |

Good story bro. Sadly it ended to fast, but good luck.
|
@ Trainer Ninja - Thanks, and hopefully the next release will be long enough for you. :D
Update time: Here are some screens from the next couple of events. Spoiler:
While this update may not seem exciting, it is leading up to the next big event we have planned for the cave at the bottom of the last couple of screens. Tell me what you think! :D |
well, i find it great!
its the first time that we see the enemies who are not against the main player, the boss just gives the pass as if you where on their side, it's the first time i see this^^ its really a good idea, I can't wait playing th next release^^ |
Quote:
Nitpicking aside, I like the looks of what you're showing there. I think it's interesting how the boss just goes and gives you a pass. That's definitely different. |

Quote:
Thanks for pointing those out KTM. I don't think it's nitpicking at all. I appreciate it when people take the time and tell me what I need to fix. And the boss doesn't have a reason not to give you the pass.....yet. ;) |
Quote:
And howcome you never told me we had updates *feels left out* EDIT: I think you should do the next one with the new OWs ;) |
Quote:
I agree, but I'm just referring from what i seen in the beta so far, to me it seems it's getting better everytime. |

wait, was it? |
Wow it's been a while since we've updated. Well to let everyone know what is going on we are getting some tiles inserted and getting overworld sprites done. Now for some eye candy:
Spoiler:
That is the new hero OW. Credits to NiKaNoRu. What do you think? |
I'll give this a try and post my thoughts later.

Can someone tell me why my mareep wont evolve at level 15 or onwards??? it tries to, i dont touch any buttons, but it stops evolving... any help would be appreciated!!
|
Do you have your Pokedex already? If not that might be why.
|
Please, just change the mountain tile, also the palettes need re-doing. I think they're to light. Anyway, good luck! :)
|
Nice job there you peple,Try using new sprites as it gives the hack a touch of authenticity ~but its enjoyable.
|
@ agel: If you haven't made it to Estille then you don't have the Pokedex for it to evolve. After you arrive at Estille you should get the Pokedex. Then, if I'm not mistaken, after gaining a level Mareep will should evolve.
@ Chimchar 9: Done and done :D. There is a new mountain tile, and there should be fixed palettes with next release. @ Mr. Marine: Thanks! We currently have 1 new OW inserted, and there are 2 ready to be inserted. My next update will probably contain pics of the new OW's in action :D Thanks for the comments everyone :D |
Hey everyone, I had some computer trouble this past month and wasn't able to work on the hack at all. I finally had it fixed and so progress will be made here in the next few weeks. Be looking for some updates soon!
|
Hi
Im A Mapper And would like to join I cant show proof as I am below 15 posts |
lol @ spam
Nice hack, the Over World will be the ones in your sig I presume ;) Well great stuff, anyway, good luck with the hack I'll play the beta once you come up with your next release. |
Alright guys, I know this looked like this hack died, but it hasn't. Josh's computer crashed so we had to wait and get that sorted out. Now we are back and are currently working on the next part of the game. Thank you for staying with us.
|
Alright, time for an update! (Yes, it has been a long time.) There haven't been any new events added this time, but we progressed in the graphics department. We have added in a couple of new overworlds and added some new tiles.
Now for the good stuff: Spoiler:
Well there you have it! Please give me your thoughts and comments on the new OWs and choice of tiles! |
As far as the tiles, I know for sure that at least the trees and the flowers are Saurav.
|
ya :D! I was really sad to think this was dieing, the new stuff looks great!
|
Hey, remember me :)
Even though I'm not part of the team I have been keeping track of the hack, and I have to say that it is going good. Keep up the good work ^_^ I can't wait until the final product. |
Screen shots look great, the tiles are fine. I personally like the Team Aevum OW (but I don't like the actual team name :/)
One thing that does need changing is the path. It looks slightly awkward, love the dark vibe feeling I get from looking at the tiles though. |
@Pepit : Thanks, you can always comeback if you want :P
@Alignment: Which path are you refering to? |
