I got this hack recently and was loving it to death, only problem is when I get to the ice path. I read somewhere on the first page that this was not completed, the thing is I don't know which version of Shiny Gold I have.

So all in all I just wanted to know weather or not the ice path (and the rest of the game) has been completed in version beta4 or if this is what the patching the game fixes.

Thanks
-Morty


Zel already said that there will be about one or two more Beta's till the game is complete. If you can't get into the Ice Path, then you have a Beta3.5, and not the PreviewBeta4.

Awesome
 
Thanks man, that's what I was looking for! :)Thanks for replying so quickly.

I'm gonna start playing Yellow again while I wait :P

This is the best hack i've ever seen.

We've got Shiny Gold, Sparking crystal, I'm thinking about making"Dark Silver, sorry"

Actually, you can't because there is no way to use Waterfall. You know how the PreviewBeta4, you can only go up to the Waterfall point and can't get past that?
Originally, HMWaterfall is in the Ice Path, but that point being the limit in the PreviewBeta4, it was'nt put in there.]
But you probably do need the Silver Wing to get Lugia once Waterfall is accesable.

Is Ice path in B4P bigger then in gold, or i'm in mistake?

Dogboy2709 June 19th, 2007 12:08 PM

Zel, i'm having a problem in the preview of beta 4, the Farfetch'd dosent want to go back to it's onwer! I tried facing it every single way i belive, and it won't go back! :( is there any speffic pattern?

Magnius June 19th, 2007 12:10 PM

Yeah... I think I'm pretty screwed from saving. When I make a new game it'll let me save now, but when I open my save state it won't(Tried deleting the .sav .sa1 and all that stuff, still didn't work). Oh well. Not that it matters much since I can save states. Only thing I can't do is trading.

Actually it is quite different then the Normal Ice Path, but it does seem bigger, if only by a little. When I was playing it, my usual fastest time in getting through the Ice Path in G/S/C was Three minutes, but in the PreviewBeta4, it took me at least four and a half minutes Dx

well in my file of shiny gold i caught hooh before getting the rainbow wing so i dont think having a silver wing would really matter

I wont be able to do anything till Thursday, but luckily I should be reaching my second goal by that time.
I'll post screens later, if I have some free time.

(and, just to remember what I said before: I appreciate any help offered, but I don't need it for now, I'll try to do things myself but if I fail, it's nice to know people who can help, thanks!)

Thanks man this is just the hack i was waiting for if ya want help with any others send me a copy of the rom and the tools needed to do it at [email protected]

This is due to an internal error of the game. You can solve it in the emulator, but in a flash cart...

Magnius June 19th, 2007 1:24 PM

Unfortunately though, even emulator doesn't seem to fix it. I also tried deleting the .sav and .sa1 files and that didn't work.

there were a few posts where people had problems with that specific flash card,i don't know what the problem is,but apparently it just doesn't work on that flash card for some odd reason.

What can I do after I get the 7th badge and go to Tin Tower and catch Ho-oh? Is that where the beta stops? I am guessing b/c I can't go through Ice Path to Blackthorn...Thanks for the help in advance.

if you have beta 3 or 3.5, then thats where it stops but if you have the preveiw beta 4 (download it on first page here) then you can go up to elite four.

Edit: Yay 15 posts now I can add links!

Evilpkmn June 19th, 2007 2:50 PM

The 4th beta( prewiew)is good , the tiles are nice , the ice path is amazing(bigger than the old ice path).And the 8th gym is complex, I don't know where I have to push the stones.

Well, the idea is to keep everything as in the original (with the evolutions as the only exception)

Well, the tileset change is the one you've been seeing in the last set of screenshots. And the change was included since the Preview.
And, I changed because of the people around the other forums, they usually change tiles and get cool results, so I had to try, and I was a bit hooked to D/P (which, fortunately, that period has ended for me XD)

Well, usually the rest of the rivals will keep adding Pokemon, and increasing their levels. Carlos' lineup is a bit different, as he (weird speaking 'bout me in third person O.o) usually likes to switch his poke. Don't forget that he has already a little more experience, and has a few Pokemon in store in his PC.

You will require the Silver Wing, but for that you need to reach Pewter City, which is something that you won't be able to do in the upcoming B4.

If you have problems, then my suggestion is to let the Farfetch'd move till it stops. If you move the player before it actually gets to the "stopping point", then something weird will happen to its movement. I've received a lot of complains about this event, and it's not really easy to fix (pretty long event), so, I always need to know specifically where was the Farfetch'd and the hero's sprite before talking to the Farfetch'd

Anyway, if you use the Search Function of the forums, you may find the solution to Farfetch'd puzzle (but do not post it again!)

Probably the savestates still recognize when you hadn't the settings correctly set (I think savestates save more than just the position in-game, it also saves the settings the emu had at that moment)

The only thing I can think of is, probably you don't have a recent emulator (I doubt it), I use 1.7.2, and did everything I said before, and I don't have problems. It could be a rom problem also (I also doubt it)

Well, since I took a while to be at Windows again, I'll post some screenshots of Saffron City.

I really love the Copycat event, it's pretty accurate :D
And, get ready for another headache, for I have changed how the warps at Sabrina's Gym work (you'll get a lot of times back at the starting point :badsmile:)

Well that's just mean, I always hated those stupid warps then I finnaly found the order and you change them. :'( I'm just kiddin, I guess that's just another challenge we have to beat. Anyway the screens look great Zel.

Varimathas June 19th, 2007 3:24 PM

ya it looking great man good job :P

Magnius June 19th, 2007 4:05 PM

Awesome, btw, I use 1.7.2 too, so that's not it. Perhaps it is my rom or something, but I doubt it.

shadoweevee June 19th, 2007 4:13 PM

in the last screenshoot sabrina looks kinda of funny, but then again maybe it's me... O_o

but other then that it all looks great!

Whirl Islands layout (can you guess where'll be Lugia?), and the beggining of TR event in Radio Tower (later I'll post more, it's another huge event, so there are a lot of screenshots once again)

Ok, regarding the screen that asks "Want to use WHIRLPOOL". How do you get Whirlpool, if not by TM or HM? (I'm sure someone asked this question already; if so, somebody please direct me to the post that does ask this.)
