Alrighty then. Let's see if I can't remember some of my three paragraph, carefully-worded post that I wrote only to have lost thanks to Manipulation's modding antics.
1. Nice storyline. It'll be hard to pull off in a hack but if you can do it, I know that it'll be awesome to play 2. I like the whole Kelios/Apocalyptic Kelios idea. It reminds me of the Light World/Dark World thing from LoZ: Four Swords. 3. I'm eagerly anticipating the concept art for the three custom legendary Pokémon 4. I'm also eager to see how you plan to replace the gym system, as well as what the new HM is going to be. Honestly, I'm eager to see pretty much everything on your features list. Though I'm particularly curious as to what you mean by a "New User Interface" 5. The mapping is amazing, as always. Though you never fixed those two tile errors in that one map (screenshot 3) It's good to have you back, man. Keep up the excellent work! |
Quote:
oh, and the HM... plays an important role as to why you get to fully visit Kelios, and Post-Apocalypse Kelios. |
um hi. when I first read the storyline I was like "whut, this sounds kinda like a game I recently played...OH YEAH! FALLOUT 3!". it does, you know. so, like, its freakin awesome to see you hacking again...even though I'm not. xD epic luck on this dude.
|
Woo welcome back. I'm liking the Falloutesque story. Your maps are nice as usual =D
Also, I like the names Mara and Sarkaz, hehe. |

It's nothing like Fallout. You'll all come to see >.> ('cept for the wasteland part... that's kinda like it) |
Awesome hack and great storyline by the way. :)
Good luck with this hack Distrubed!!! |
You're back in hacking??
Great, the Mapping looks amazing, and I love the story. Really looking forward to this hack. :3 |
I really like the story, and the idea of 3 regions. Will you be changing the Hero's OW though? Guess it doesn't matter. The mapping is stunning, too~
Keep up the great work. |
Of course the hero's Overworld will be changed - as soon as I get myself someone decent for that role. I can't do it by myself :|
Jesse, I swear to god if you mentioned anything I told you last night in that post, I'll eat your family. XD |

AND PLEASE DON'T EAT JESSE I LIKE HIM Anyway story looks nice and catastrophic. I'm excited to see how you're going to represent the whole "world's-going-to-go-boom" thing and how it's going to look. Maps are pleasant too, coming from a decent mapper. :3 Good luck ugly. |
I should have a new update for you guys tonight.
|
This sounds really good the story is great! Can't wait for it!
|
jus wat wi ned anothr n00b runin bout
Omg, ish looking very seshkey. I looking forward to this. |
For now, this is the best I can do as far as updates go.
It's Marinur Peninsula. Please don't mind the top part of the tower, as you won't see that area in game. Also, don't mind the lack of tree shading. I'm planning on removing the shading to make room for more tiles/block edits. EDIT: The area around the PC and the Mart are most likely going to be changed before a release to make this city a bit more navigable. Spoiler:
|
It's good to see you're back! It's like you haven't lost your touch in mapping, though it's a bit different from last time. Have you changed your style? Or is it me? :P Anyway, good luck!
|
OMG! I remember this hack.
Good luck on this, really, good luck! EDIT: I got bored, so I made you this: http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/2276/distant.gif I used the recent map you posted. Its not great, but I hope you like it. :) |
Great Storyline. I am interested as to what a high security would look like. Electric Fences? Barbed Wire?
I love the name too, sounds mysterious. |

Great Story! No really, although there is only a Prologue and an After-Prologue, I was sucked into it :P Great thinking on that part. The mapping style in the in game screens look great ;) Although I don't really like the map you recently posted... The island has a really natural form and so do the rest of the mountainous area's, which is good. But I don't like your tree, hedge and house placement. But, the playability is fine, so I'm guessing that's what you were going for. But this isn't the map rating forum :P
Your features look good and possible. The names of the three legendaries are really cool too :) I'm really interested in the new HM and the "new user interface". The game is really original and "the amazing storyline" part should be bolded, highlighted and put in a huge font :P Anyway, I wish you a lot of luck and I really hope you complete this! ;) Oh and just wondering, looking at all those rewards and people who know this hack, is it being restarted? And if so, is the old thread still somewhere? :P |
I actually hated my old idea... which is why it's restarted. I only put those rewards up there so people think I'm not some guy who recently discovered AMAP and thinks he can hack with just that. :)
Click the links below. (And no, I'm not going to close this thread ever (unless some moron decides to post spoilers) and I'm not going to restart again either, mainly because I absolutely love my current idea) Distant 2 Distant Original I'm fairly certain I won all the awards when I was currently working on the original... but I may be wrong. And Distant 2 isn't a sequel, just a different thread. |
Oh, I remember seeing that title screen about a year ago (or a half year ago :P) in the titlescreen forum... It seems you keep changing your stories, but this is really the best one, also looks like you have a lot of experience. So something really good will probably come out of this :)
Good luck ;) |
As of now, I'm making little progress. All the maps I want for the alpha (which will be a total of 4 outdoor, 2 indoor (only counting the indoor ones that are relevant to the story)) are completed. Now it's a matter of me fixing my Advance Map to actually be able to do stuff other than map (like add events and such)
Most of the scripts are done or near completion, so once A-Map is fixed, I can move on with testing the scripts, and eventually releasing an alpha... which I predict will be coming late June. Edit: Titlescreen from the old distant will be back in this new one! |
What's wrong with your advance map then? xD
Meh... I'm straying off the subject of your hack -.- |
Time for a little feature update that will be displayed in the front post:
Features150 Pokémon Available You will only see, and be able to catch 150 Pokémon. No, it is not going to be the original 150 Pokemon. The Pokedex will feature completely different Pokemon than the 150 Pokemon from Red/Blue/Yellow. Distant's Pokedex will be shown at a different time. 10 Fakemon 10 Fakemon will be added to Distant. 3 of them being legendary, and 7 others. The 7 others will be playing a somewhat important role in this hack, but you will not know what that role is until a release. =) 3 Playable Regions Well... more like 2.5. The regions that will be playable are Kelios - which is the Player's home region. Post-Apocalypse Kelios, which will be Kelios after the cataclysm, and Uranje - which will be the region you're taken to after you're captured. New Badge System: Insignias Yep. That's right. No more of that "go through 8 gyms while dealing with Team Rocket!!" business. Insignias are awarded to you after defeating a Rocket Executive. The Insignias will give you access to certain locations, and also give you power of using brand new HMs! 1 New Hidden Move: Time Warp I'm not going into too much detail about Time Warp. Just the fact that you can warp through time to a different point in the game. Yes, before I get hate, it IS functional, and only a select few Pokémon will be able to learn it! Graphical Overhaul What I'm planning on doing, is replacing each and every tile, overworld, and Pokémon sprite by the final release. Due to this tedious process, it will not happen suddenly. I will be changing it throughout releases. For example: Beta One might have the tile change and nothing else. New Music Because I am slowly learning how to incorporate new music into hacks, and create my own, the hack will feature a select few of my works. Not everything will be changed though, as of now, only Battles (Wild, Trainer, Gym, Rival) and Team Rocket encounters. Professional Mapping and Scripting The mapping and scripting will be top-notch in this hack. (I'm so modest) I plan on trying to have the most beautiful maps and most enormous and in-depth scripts you've ever seen. Mapping, most of you know I'm very good at, but not many of you have seen my scripts... which I can say, are equally as impressive as my maps. A Hack Which Will be Completed I've promised this from the start, back in 2008 -- I will complete Distant, no matter how long it takes me, or how tedious it becomes. Also, I'll be making sure to update the front post in a moment! |
