I can't decide whether I should use FR/LG graphics or HG/SS graphics. I mean, it looks really weird, because even though I'm using the same tiles and mappings as HG/SS, everything looks bigger because the GBA isn't 3D. And not only that, but the R/S/E overworlds are smaller than the D/P/Pt/HG/SS overworlds, and I've been thinking that everything looks too big.
What I'm probably going to do is to simply, use FR/LG graphics, tiles, maps, etc., simply because I shouldn't try to re-create HG/SS's 3D Kanto in 2D, because it just doesn't work that way. HOWEVER, it's going to have all the features and changes that the old one had, for instance, you fight your Rival right outside of Route 1, Gym & E4 teams will be revised, Arianna and Archer will be involved in the plot, etc.
So yeah, I'm restarting this hack AGAIN. But I actually started on a separate FR/LG-styled on a month ago, so I've already made somewhat decent progress. Since I'm nice, here's the amount of progress I've made before making this decision.
And yes, someday I will hack HG/SS to have the storyline of R/G/B/FR/LG. And to compensate for this decision, Pokemon Saga - Chronicles will have FR/LG styled graphics (along with Pokemon Saga - Adventure).
EDIT: Oh, and in the new patch, you can access Viridian City, but there's nothing to do there, since it's about 20% complete. No scripts, random placeholder tiles, no guardhouse, etc. It basically ends at Route 1.
EDIT: Besides, even though I LOVE all the improvements to Kanto that HG/SS did, I wish that they used the crappier FR/LG Kanto, since the FR/LG Kanto reminds me of when I was in 4th Grade :3. Those were the days...
EDIT: Bah, I don't even know what I'm working on anymore. I'm just gonna say that this "series" will all be on DS. Anything else I work on isn't related to Pokemon Saga, so yes, I'm not working on this for a while.
EDIT AGAIN: This hack will be renamed to, "Pokemon DarkViolet Version".
