I would LOVE to play this game but I can't seem to get a damn patcher to work. You recommended NUPS and FireRed 1.0 but hey, nothing opens or works.

Maybe your ROM isn't the correct one,have you tried both the patches provided?
Anyway,I'd suggest you follow this TUTORIAL on how to patch,and if you still can't make sense of it,write exactly what is it that doesnt open and the eventual errors that u receive when patching

It appears I'm just an idiot who was hellbent that the first download was the only one that should work because gosh darn it it was almost 7 in the morning and I have no patience I guess.

Thank you!

Good news
The upgrade to beta 2.2 with HGSS/Gen 4 graphics is almost ready,
Moreover,from now on,when you read a diary,you won't be simply reading a text,but rather experience it,here is a GIF(Sorry for the low quality)
https://i.imgur.com/Ojum6vu.gif

Bad News
Me and Manspart decided to start again from scratch,meaning it's very probable you won't be able to proceed using the beta 2 save,
We apologise about that

Well it looks like a full game but I just can't get it to patch right. Probably because I'm a s_ mobile player. I hope to see more good work in the future, and I'll keep on trying to patch because I devour insanity. :) :I :(

It's not a complete game,it goes up to the 3rd gym,Im not sure what you mean by s_mobile player,if you are having problem with the patching there are many tutorials you can look at,if the problem is the patch I provided,please let me know,so that I can fix whatever problem it has

In the next beta a system will be introduced so that the player can enter most buildings even at night,without killing the realistic feeling

Hey! So I started playing the latest beta 2.2 and I've noticed that some of the dialogue text could do with some editing. If you'd like, I'd be happy play the role of a grammatical and spelling error checker If you'd like? :)

Drake-Slytherin March 15th, 2021 10:29 PM

So about beta 2.5...
I've beaten Misty.
I've received the egg from the lady at the daycare.
In the aquarium the Golem won't let me pass.
In Misty's house a complete black screen in the basement...
In the passageway to Vermillon, Lucas and the trade girl block the passage to the stairs...
What to do?

Golem will move after you talk to the Psyduck Lady at the aquarium
You have to fight Lucas to proceed in the underground passage, you can only battle him after reading the Diary at Bill's House, which you can only read after you've red the 1st diary.
Thanks for playing :))

Ahh, I've forgotten about the other exit for the diary at pewter and the exit before the golem..
Thx!

gamerofmons May 29th, 2021 6:29 PM

I'm having some trouble with Mt.Moon , it's night and the Clefairys are not doing their ritual plus the girl keep repeating the same thing.

Is there a specific time I'm supposed to talk to her? Because my emulator is set for real time.

Great game by the way.

Nevermind I got passed it.
