Unfortunately no, it would require assembly knowledge and I don't have the necessary skills

I know not that many people play them anymore, but would it be possible for you to backport some of the changes to Diamond and Pearl? Most importantly the trade evolutions, HM changes, and event Pokemon.

It doesn't carry the HM changes, mainly. It can grant full HM compatibility but you still need to carry around two HM slaves. I don't think it adds in the event items either, but that's easily hacked in.

Randomizers only work using Vanilla game offsets, it's theoretically possible to make a fork to work with ROMHacks but I don't really know how to find the offsets.
What you can do is randomize a vanilla game and then transfer the wild encounter and/or trainer data narc files to a ROMHack.

Platinum and DP have different script commands, so I can't just transfer script files from one game to another. Sorry but it's not something I'm looking forward as I already have other projects to deal with.
If you're interested in doing it yourself I can point you towards resources for gen 4 scripting.

I don't know much about scripting yet, but I can try. Resources would be much appreciated but I am very much a beginner when it comes to romhacking.

This video explains the basics pretty well, you may also want to join the discord server linked in the description for more information, if you are interested you can ping me there.
You will need DSPRE but the version linked in the description is outdated, the new one can be found here: https://github.com/AdAstra-LD/DS-Pokemon-Rom-Editor/releases/tag/v1.7

I really like this rom, the quality of life changins implamated make the game more enjoyable to play and even more than the original platinum. I think the only things that the hack needs to havr is faster dialogue and the updated moves/updated base stats, but in the momment the rom is amazing. I'll wait happily the next update! (Sorry for my bad english)

Explorer of Time July 11th, 2022 4:02 PM

Please don't change moves/base stats, or at least keep a version with them just as they were in the original Platinum. I love how this hack functions as a vanilla+ hack and I don't want to lose it to feature creep.

Thanks! Sorry but I won't be changing base stays or movesets as the goal is to keep the original experience when it comes to battles.
Also I don't know when the next update will come since I've hit kind of a roadblock and I'm also working on a different project

I'm fine with no updated base stats or movesets but I think the moves being updated to the most recent like generation 6 would be great. But your rom is really good thanks for making it, and I will happily wait for this project you are working on!

Waiting for next releases. Enjoying it so far.
Theres a bug in natures. Some are + +

pokemonfan6498 August 17th, 2022 6:48 AM

If anyone needs latest version of universal pokemon game randomiser for this hack then the latest version is here this new version added things like evolutions what evolve by happiness now require value of 160 instead of 220 plus gen 4 games have option to make HP and EXP bar faster https://github.com/Ajarmar/universal-pokemon-randomizer-zx/releases

SpagoAsparago August 29th, 2022 4:13 AM

Update 1.4 released!
Changelog:
-Added a NPC in the Fight Area for triggering dual slot encounters
https://imgur.com/3MXzNvH
-Fixed text displaying nature effects
-Added another patch now compatible with a Following Platinum ROM.
Due to how Following Platinum has new script commands and DSPRE issues with recognizing them, not all features from the regular version are present at the moment. Refer to the feature list for the ones currently present. There might be bugs in game for this reason.

All the mythicals/legendaries from the events except Manaphy egg are also not available at the moment in FP due to the scripting issues. And the dual slot encounter NPC too.

Oh i see. Dual encounters shouldnt be added at start? Like growlithe in first routes?

They only appear if you have the national dex, and that's not a script so no idea how to change that

And if you change the scripts to when you receive the PokéDex, it will already deliver the NationalDex to you? I already managed to do this in Fire Red XD (But in Platinum... This might work!)

Yes it's possible but I prefer not doing that, I would like to maintain the original progression and regional dex
Overall I can just move the NPC to another location in the following version, but I prefer to not have inconcistencies and I'm looking into fixing the scripting issue as a whole

Please make a Hgss hack same as this one

At the moment I have too many projects going on including this one, I'll think about it if this is ever finished

Hello I was playing Following platinum QOL and I wanted my Slowpoke to evolve into a Slowking but when I got a water stone the game told me that Slowpoke can't use a water stone but your page said it would be able to use one and right now I don't know what to do

Frankollini September 19th, 2022 9:59 AM

Hello! Thank you for incorporating Following Plat into this.

I ran into a bug, however, where fighting on a double battle crashes the game every time without fail.
Is this a common thing or did I do something wrong in the process? I used the 3541 rom and the non-fairy patch.

I know Following Plat had this bug at some point but then fixed it, so I wonder if it came back after they made the separate non-fairy type patch?

Anyway I'd appreciate any word on the subject. Thank you!

EDIT: I have since then tested the battle multiple times with different options and different settings and even by changing party members around and figured out that double battles only crash when my starter, Piplup, is on the frst slot.
it is the weirdest thing and super specific. Piplup on the 2nd slot has no issues. Any other mon on the 1st or 2nd slot has no issues. But Piplup on the 1st slot, specifically, crashes double battles.
I'm going to try and evolve him on the grass (he's lv15) and see if Prinplup also crashes the game.
