Pokémon Helio Version

[Pika'chu500]

Anyways I finished the demo. My team and my opinion are as follow.
My team is Munkadro lv.20 and Pireel lv.12

The demo was alright. That rival girl could use some real personality. Or some development before she starts to yell and go crazy. The story in the beginning went by quick... and whats up with the Aaron dude? I loved the cries of the Fakemon. Anyways just get better with the personality of characters and get better pacing for the story and your good.

I got a runtime error (message on the second post of this page) and me2hack told me to get the rtp and I got it but I get the same runtime error

Put a rubyscreen.dll in folder, might work.

Put a rubyscreen.dll in folder, might work.

Okay I will try if it works now.
EDIT: it worked!! thanks me2hack!!

 

[me2hack]

No problem. Hope it works for that other guy.

 

[BadSamaritan]

Yeah, I finished the demo not too long ago myself, my team was...

Salavern: Lv.20
Arachnia: Lv.6
Flujay(the traded one):Lv.16

One question I have, is is it possible to catch moston anywhere in the demo? I did notice on the route with the bush maze there is tall grass there, despite no pokemon appearing, so maybe thats where you plan on putting him.

 

[aquakip]

Moston and Twittle are only catchable in the gardens. They are very rare, however.

Wait, I'm confused, are the gardens the maze area I was talking about? Because as I said, literally NO pokemon appear when I'm running throught that grass at all. Unless you were implying they will be rare when you put them in the game.

 

[aquakip]

HUH!? I put them in! AGH! SO MUCH IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:/

Yeah there are no wild Pokemon in the garden.

I played a little bit of the demo, and a couple things bothered me. The starting town's music was too short, and I was annoyed at how much it kept on repeating. Another thing that bothered me, was the characters' dialogue. It wasn't really Pokémon-ish, and was really boring.

Last but not least, I was mainly disappointed at how similar this game was to B/W. That's really what interested me, was how unique the game was. But then, most of the game's graphics were changed to B/W and I was disappointed. It's good to have a few B/W things in your game, but the game's way too close to B/W.

The starting town's music was originally something else, but was changed because we thought this better suited it.

The characters' dialogue is something in which we want to break away from the Pokemon canon with by making it more...realistic, I suppose.

D: That makes me sad. It really does. Especially since the older graphics were HGSS, so how were they unique? They were either poor tiles, or public tiles, while these present tiles are all original and in the BW style that many aren't using. I thought it was even more unique by doing so.

 

[me2hack]

Custom tiles with HGSS palettes pwn! Or just rip tile from HGSS, as I did. =O

 

[aquakip]

So...you suggest that I recolor my current tileset with HGSS coloring? Pretty much up the saturation?

 

[me2hack]

Well.. Not sure if B/W tiles would go for that, but you can try. If that doesn't look good, I'd suggest ripping or custom.

 

[aquakip]

They are custom tiles. Completely scratched. I just went for the BW style, is all. I think as the game progresses, the tiles will become more...appealing, given the wide range of biomes/areas Emort has.

 

[me2hack]

Well, don't base em on B/W. D:
They don't look good, not saying that your tiles are bad, it's just not the right tiles for an rpg. They don't look nature-like when walking around, it doesn't feel like your in a forest, like in Ilex forest for example.

 

[Karel_Kazuki]

It just wont open for me-.-

I click it, the black screen comes up, that little error sound goes off and then it shuts back down...

About the RTP, there should be a way to distribute the game without it. I know you can do it in RPGmaker2003 by making sure you arent using any RTP files (or if you are- copy them to your project folder) and then typing some stuff in the .ini folder.

It means people without rpgmakerXP can play it. really expands the possible audience.

EDIT:
google is winrar. can't link to other forms, thank Rydin @ rpgrevolution.com

Spoiler:

This is a tutorial for those wanting to make their games/projects playable by others without the use of RPG Maker XP (and it's RTP). This will teach you to make your project stand-alone.

Disabling 'Standard' RTP
First of all, I'll have to say that RPG Maker XP does NOT add the RTP graphics/audios to your game when you compile a game disk. Probly about 50% of the developers don't have RPG Maker XP or it's RTP, so it's best to include the RTP within the game itself. To do this, you'll need to locate the RTP within your computer. Where at, you ask? Well this varies depending on which version of RMXP you have.

Postality Knight's ENHANCED Version
My Computer / Main Disk (C:) / Games / RPG Maker XP [..] / Graphics (Audio)

Legal Liscensed Version
My Computer / Main Disk (C:) / Program Files / Enterbrain / RGSS / Standard / Graphics (Audio)

Now that we've found the RTP files, copy/paste the 'Graphics' and 'Audio' folders in to your game's project folder (to find this open your project and go to Game > Open Game Folder). Now before you rush and do this, I have to warn you that the RTP is a whoppin' 29.1 MB! For any game, that's huge! This is why it's important to keep track of what RTP files you use, and copy/paste those files ONLY. This will not only save your disk space, but people are more inclined to download smaller files.

Now that the RTP is nestled safe within your game, you'll need to disable RMXP from requiring the actual RTP folder. To do this, just open your project and go to Game > RTP Selection and change 'Standard' to (None). Your game is now RTP free!

Including the RGSS DLL Files
Last but not least, in order to make your game playable without RMXP, you'll need to include the RGSS files within your project. You see, silly Enterbrain left out the files and made us crafty RM'ers do the dirty work of copy/pasting the files. Not to worry though, it's quite simple.

You'll need 2 files:
Attached File RGSS102E.zip ( 643.45K ) Number of downloads: 216

Attached File RGSS100J.zip ( 635.78K ) Number of downloads: 179


Just downloaded them, remember to unzip them, and copy/paste them in to your game's directory folder. Easy as pie!

If the download of the RGSS200E.dll isn't working then alternatively use this link:
https://www.rpgrevolution.com/users/woratana/DLL_file/

Compiling a Game Disk
This is the easiest step of them all. Once you're done with your demo, game, project, or whatever then double check your game to make sure you're not missing any files.

Go to File > Create Game Disk.

Here you'll be given an option to 'Encrypt Game Data', what this will do is seal up your game's graphics and game data to prevent others from accessing your game. This is completely optional. Once you've chosen the output directory of your game disk, click ok and RMXP will automatically seal up your game and there you have it! Your stand-alone game is complete and ready for zipping and uploading. Now your friends (who don't have RMXP) can play your game in peace.

There is a way, you do it by compressing the game data from within rmxp it self. It turns it into a .exe for anyone to play. I told Starrmyt but apparently they don't want to do it this way.

Anyway, I'm gonna download the demo right now. Looking forward to it.

Edit: Downloaded and extracted in winrar. Found the game.exe, which wouldn't open so I assume you need to open it in rmxp or install the rtp? Anyway, the lack of an ability to find the files anywehere else on my computer, and not being able to paste stuff into winrar made me give up on the game for now. I'll wait until there's an easier to play version.
