FireRed hack: Pokémon Identity

[nasonex]

This Hack really deserves the HotM!

It looks cool especially the plot.

Nice tiles VGAura, Can't wait for your next Update.

It's been a while now and I hope all goes well
in your Hack!

VGAura I like how you use default tiles. You don't see a lot of them in ROM Hacks nowadays... When the next demo or whatever is out I will play it obviously.

 

[VGAura]

Thanks =)
However, I don't think I'll keep using them because I'm having a hard time getting the environment to look the way I want with Kanto's mostly urban tileset.

But Identity looks so amazing with FR tileset. What tiles exactly do you need?

But Identity looks so amazing with FR tileset.

I agree - that was one of the things that made Identity different because it didn't have a somewhat gimmicky tileset (*cough* DP Tiles *cough*) and focussed on story rather than graphics. However, what might be interesting is instead of substituting for another tileset totally, the FRLG one is simply extended. So more graphics in the FRLG style?

But at the end of the day it's your hack VG and it's entirely up to you what you do. ^^

 

[VGAura]

The most important tileset change that I want to make is the sewers.

But in addition to that I have a prairie environment so I need buildings that are more...umm...natural?

Well, I'm planning on having something like the buildings in Fortree and Pacifidlog but on mountain and desert environments.

 

[TB Pro]

Prarie buildings you say? Something like this:

Spoiler:

 

[VGAura]

Yes, that building is just what I was thinking of, from the wooden walls to the straw roof. Is that from one of your tilesets?

exactly - you could extend the FR tileset with some stuff like that, maybe? In my opinion it would be much better than new tiles.

best storyline ever!!!!!!!! totally addicted... eagerly awaiting release of next beta. :) :) :)

 

[Cutlerine]

This is, without a shadow of a doubt, my favourite hack ever. I downloaded it a couple of days ago and played it through in about an hour, unable to stop. It's just so good. Keep up the excellent work!

 

[EJ]

This hack is quite awesome. Keep up the good work bro.

Waiting for the next...

Im really enjoying this hack so far, I think it has a great plot and some nice ideas behind it. I did find a bug that may or may not have been noted. In the pokemon center in the lighthouse, if you stand on the blue or yellow chairs at the far right against the wall you can walk through the wall to the right of them and go quite a distance into the black space around the center. Hope this helped

I just played through it. It's great! The ending of the demo was a great way to...end it. Can't wait for the next beta or demo! One little thing though. In the sewers, if you leave the bridges a certain way after leaving, you can't access the sewers anymore.

 

[XDragonRiderX]

Is this a glitch or what because I can access Erika's gym and Celadon's Department store?

 

[VGAura]

Does this happen before or after the demo ends?

 

[aka825]

Your hack is the best one on Pokecommunity.
I keep replaying it, wanting it to never end.
My friend (who does not play pokemon hacks usually, but came over one day and has the equivalent of a doctorate in pokemon) agreed this was one of the best pokemon games out there (including releases).

 

[wingman11]

Wow. This hack. I absolutely love this. I played through the whole demo, and I am VERY impressed. Everything was very well scripted, and the maps were ingenious. They were laid out with a lot of care it seems, and they all seemed much more realistic than any other maps I've seen. Especially the jumbled slums of Silvertone City. There were a lot of small grammatical errors, but those should be easy to correct, especially with that list you got.

I only have two things to say:
One) A map of the sewers would've been very handy; I got way too lost in there.
Two) I really think that it needs custom music, or at least remixes of the existing music. Walking in the slums and hearing the Vermillion City song (I think) did not give off the right vibe. :P

All in all, I'm really looking forward to the release of your next demo. Stupid cliffhangers.

What must I do after the cave near the pass, then an unown appeared as "VGAura"

That, my friend, is the end of the current demo. I believe the Unown that called itself VGAura said that before you regained control of your character. As for what to do now, you wait for the next demo to come out.
