Chaos Rush

I saw you have to move to Ruby.
That's sh** news, lets be honest. I've got another patch for Ruby that replaces all OWs with FR Overworlds (I had to make it a few days ago), I'll PM you a link when I'm able.
And I just noticed your edit now (lol, you always do that :D), I totally agree with battling your pseudo rival. They completely abandoned that after RS (well, it was still in Emerald, despite not being in FRLG), and they shouldn't have, in my opinion. When you say full-time Rival, do you mean you'll include more battles and encounters with Wally, yeah? I mean... ALOT more? Twice in the game... Doesn't cut it, in my opinion. (I know you could rebattle him several times, but that doesn't count).
Anyway, it's unfortunate that we both had to restart on Ruby, but this way there's guaranteed to be someone to know of a solution to any problem we may have- though my guess is it's pretty unlikely we'll run into many problems at all.
EDIT: Oh, yeah, some advice- to save time (and for the sake of your sanity), you should seriously just port the maps and tiles from the Emerald version of DarkViolet. I know that the scripts would be messed up, but you'd be writing them again anyway. It's what I did for when I moved Infinity to Ruby (before the format), and it really saved so much time. It's just some advice.

If you're still online, can you pass me AdvanceMap? The link is dead in the thread.

Yeah, I was just thinking, that seems like something ZDG would want to change.
And... I was thinking. You are including Green (as in, the female protagonist) when you play as Red, correct? Will the Player be able to battle the pseudo Rival in DV? I believe you said that you would, before, but then you said just recently that you wanted to stick as close as possibe to Game Freak's style. Technically it is Game Freak's style, if you look at RSE, but for every game after Emerald the "pseudo Rival" just shows you how to catch Pokémon, etc.

Thanks!
I don't suppose you will be doing the 2-3 gen aswell :/ ?
I'm researching Firered, I want to make a complete patch with all pokemon animations.

Thanks anyway.

Would I be able to use you second frames?
I'm using some info in the R&D Section, and making a non-public .IPS patch of animated pokemon & and trainers when I find the offset.
You will be credited etc

Oh, I see- you're making their names correspond with their Starter types. That makes sense, I suppose. In that case, though, I won't be saying the Infinity Trilogy takes place after the Saga, (no offense meant, of course) because I have a different plan for Red's team. He'll noly have one starter, but it won't be Charizard. And he will have a Pikachu :3

I read that you plan for all 386 Pokémon to be available in DV and Emerald- and also that you plan to expand the Kanto Dex. Is that just catering for evolutions like Crobat and Blissey, or are you putting some Johto Pokémon in there, like Sentret in Route 1?

Well... I'll think about it. I mean I probably wont say my games take place after the Saga, and I remember the comments you made (back when you were called AztecFire) in a thread about Red's HGSS team. I personally think his team in GSC was based around the Pokemon you could obtain when you played Pokemon Yellow (which, I know, was a stupid, excuse of a game made solely for the sake of fans of the Anime). I think that they replaced Espeon with Lapras so he'd have a fully Gen I team.
I prefer the Manga's excuse to that, though, how Red borrowed Blue and Green's starters to go to Mt Silver (though I am fully aware that the Manga and Games are not canon).
But still, NO EFFING WAY would I call him Ash. I stopped watching the Anime after the Johto series, (partially because it stopped showing on the channels we had, lol), but mostly because I started disliking it.

Oh, no, of course not- that's why I said I wasn't suggesting anything (because I really wasn't, lol). While my games will take place after the DPPtHGSS, I do stray a little bit from the official style, in that it's slightly more mature (but DON'T think of the likes of Quartz or DarkCopper when you hear that), because I'm doing it in a way I feel is suitable. The official games are enjoyable, but they are made with younger kids in mind. Since I don't have to do that, I'll stretch the boundaries a tiny bit. No matter how I phrase it, it still sounds like I'm going to drop F-bombs all over the game, but no. You'll see, anyway.
Although my games take place in new regions and such, I will be involving certain protagonists of the other official games- but again, not like Light Platinum did (where you battle Diamond before fighting a single Gym Leader, and even worse, you battle Red before the second, IIRC). I have a concept on how Game Freak played it out- battling past protagonists is supposed to have an 'epic' feel, which is likely why the credits play after you beat Red in HGSS (and probably why you don't actually see him til the battle).
Anyway, I guess you're right. I couldn't begin to imagine what they used for it. After hacking for a while, the concept of creating something from scratch seems a bit weird to me. I mean... You HAVE to start from somewhere, so... I dunno. I don't mean that they have to hack all their games to develop new ones (of course not), but I find the concept of programming something from scratch plain odd.

Oh, right. Well, no point in rushing. Tiles are a tedious area, anyway. It's annoying that Game Freak could make them fit so snugly into the tilesets, I tried and tried again to do that but could never really manage it. Then again I was always pretty picky with tiles.
I've recently been thinking... Your Pokemon Saga, it's essentially fixing up the games so they have better continuity, isn't it? It's interesting, because the aim of my hack was to kind of conclude the Pokemon stories. Well, I wouldn't have done that with one hack, which is why I'd planned a trilogy. It's still funny though, my idea would be a bit like a sequel to yours. Not suggesting anything, just... Noting it. XD

Alpha played, comment posted. Nice work, it has to be said. And thanks for the mention in the first post, it wasn't any trouble anyways. I wouldn't know whetheryou changed the music or not, because my sound is out, but if you did I'm sure it's also great.
Are you much further than the Alpha right now, or occupied with other stuff at the minute?

Oh, ok.

Well, I've been downloading some of the stuff I had before. I'll be starting Infinity again as soon as I get another Sound Card- Emerald is still the best, so I'm going back to it. Ruby just lacks too much, and I don't think Fire Red is too much better.

Have you been hacking much lately?

Okay, thanks, I guess I can just get used to it. What OS are you running, now that I think of it?

Hey.
I was wondering, what image editor do you use? I had a great one called Ulead PhotoImpact, but it came with my computer, and it's not free to download. I've got Paint but I'd rather not have to resort to it. I mean if that's what you use I guess it's good enough for me, , but... Yeah, just wondering. :)

Can you tell me the number of the Title Screen of Emerald for Unlz and Prof. Birch number fo Tile Molester, I have been searching them and I can't find them! Please!

I can give you a ralts. Won't ask for anything in return.

How can I edit Pokémon Emerald Tittle Screen?
And... How can I edit Prof. Birch from the introduction?

...And the question is? Lol jk.
I noticed that too, today- I expanded with 00, edited A-Map's INI (setting the point of expansion as the starting search point, so FFFFFF). I didn't do anything with maps but I set $1000000 as the offset of a script, and XSE didn't seem to recognise it as an offset. :/

:(
I could, but I don't have the energy for that right now. I'm actually on Infinity V5 right now, so I might take a break for a few days..

:L ok
:P
I like ur tiling
it tis good :L

Ah. So... Crap. That's not too good, either, if it means I have to wait. I've considered switching bases, but I'm just too attached to Emerald, it has everything I need, regarding the sprites, Pokenav, music, etc. Ruby and Fire Red have too many lackings in comparison. Meh, I'll have to wait and see.
Thanks, I'll check that out now.
