This hack have huge lacking in the beginning of game. I know there are two healing item and two Pokemon, but what if you already waste healing item and you can't process without healing station? I tried talk to mom, but nothing happen. It suppose to be heal the Pokemon. Even Jasime's lab Heal Machine, no response. I think this should add heal station like talk to mom or Heal Machine from lab.

Help with light platinum

Hey guys I'm new here, hope all are well.

I have a question regarding light platinum. I played it a few years back and just kind of forgot about it so I re-downloaded it and play it on "my boy" on my phone, however this time around the rom gets stuck at the point in the game where all 4 legendaries are fighting. Is there anything I can do about I don't really fancy starting all over again

I am currently at the Mt. Winter(or Winder lmao) and I must say that I am really disappointed by this hack.
Yes hack is really beautiful, sprites are amazing, hard to believe they are custom but it have many flaws.
Half of the people in every town/city or Team Steam will repeat same two sentences over and over. XP system is ridiculously weird : You get more XP for level 30 Venipede than level 40 Gardevoir, 14 XP for level 40 Metang etc...Why do you get more XP for not fully evolved pokemon, rather than fully evolved one? This isn't even close to B/W XP system. Team Steam pokemon are so repetitive in every area. In Mt. Winter everyone have 2x Kadabra, Gardevoir and Lopunny, so boring. Also there is many typos, but I can live through that.
And that game breaking bug with 6th gym leader Reyner is just icing on the cake. You have to google out the solution and hope it will work.
This hack needs so much polishing gameplay wise.
I am playing Light Platinum Final version.
Edit :
I finished this at the beginning of Summer and I must say I was very disappointed. This hack was incredibly buggy for a finished hack. So many bugs that should have been solved long ago. NPCs were especially dull, repeating same text over and over. XP did not make sense half of the time. Overall only good things were looks and scripting. I would give this hack 5/10 for todays standard.

I know this is way after the game came out but i need some help. I started playing Pokemon light platinum on opener on my mac, everything was fine until i tried to evolve feebas with a water stone and the game went to a black screen with glitchy music. This happens whenever any Pokemon evolves and once after a trainer battle. I really need some help if anyone could answer I would be so greatful.

Possibly an emulator issue. I've heard of other people having similar issues with OpenEmu.

Maybe try a different emulator. I think VBA-M and mGBA are available for Mac. If not, you could try running a Windows emulator with Wine (I think).

What I really want is a detailed explanation of the most likely way to fix this or what emulator to get that I can play light platinum on. I don't want to have to keep checking back here for the solution if you could do that I would be super grateful. (sorry that sounded kinda mean I just REALLY wanna play light platinum.)

I've never encountered anything like this, so I have no idea what the problem is. I'm just offering suggestions since no one else is.
