Should I replace the Galactic Grunt and Admin battle themes with N's battle themes?

    I have fixed Gardenia. She will work in beta 2.1, which I will release this week.

    However, I haven't found any bug catcher in Eterna Forest that sends out a "!" or freezes the game. There's no "Bug Catcher Douglas" programmed there, not even in the original Diamond.

    VS Seeker trainers will be fixed too, as well as a strange music glitch that corrupts an instrument (go to Sandgem and listen, for example).

    By the way, Gardenia now suffers the trainer name glitch, which has no fix yet. I really don't know the reason of that name corruption, but it's not the text file, I'm sure. Does anyone have any ideas of possible solutions?

    What was wrong with gardenia that caused the game to freeze?

    Internal trainer programming. That's why, if you looked at the script, it looked perfect (in fact, I never edited it).

    What worries me a lot is the VS Seeker. There are a lot of trainers glitching, and some of them have their text corrupted. If I knew how to get rid of that...

    Try searching on youtube for tutorials on how to remove the corrupted text

    There are no tutorials because this is something nobody hasn't experienced before, mainly because they are not innovative enough to edit such things.

    But it doesn't matter, because I have fixed it. Well, I still have to tweak the patch a bit more so it doesn't occur in the future, but the problem is 99% gone. I had to change the texts' encoding, which wasn't easy.

    How to prevent it in your hack: DO NOT USE THENEWPOKETEXT TO EDIT TRAINER NAMES :P

    What Program did you use to edit the trainer names?

    Beta 2.1 is now available. It's mostly the same as Beta 2 but several bug fixes have been performed:

    • Freezing issues in Eterna Forest and Eterna Gym are fixed
    • Trainer names don't glitch anymore (FINALLY, YEAH)
    • Some instruments didn't play correctly in many songs, now they do
    • N will disappear forever from Ravaged Path after talking to him
    • The VS Seeker will now work without any secondary effect
    Main patch is available here: http://www.mediafire.com/?a81cxtajhgoehoh
    Update from Beta 2 to 2.1: http://www.mediafire.com/?5j5jws2f4urlcaq

    My rom crashed again in Eterna forest with the first double battle. It's the one with the bug catcher and someone else.

  • When will beta 3 be released?

    Anyway, I won't be on PC as much as I used to be, because since I got Xbox in december, I now do Call of duty and minecraft matches.

    Hello! After some time without updates, I'm revealing what I've been working on.

    Pokémon DarkDiamond has only progressed a little, because I've been doing extensive research needed to continue the hack. These have been very hard months, but finally, I can present you my first custom map! That means we could see new areas in DarkDiamond, who knows...

    Here's a video of it:
