Red hack: Pokémon Red/Blue - Gen. II Graphics And Music Patch V2.0 [FINAL VERSION RELEASED]

Aw that's a shame! Do you plan on doing a Yellow version? If not, could you explain how to do it? I'd love to have a go at trying it. Yellow is my favourite game and to do that would be amazing.
 
That is awesome :D

You think you be able to make it so the EXP bar would actually fill up when you gain EXP? I mean seems kinda of pointless the see it there and not see the EXP Bar raise.

Thanks!

About the exp bar, I'm working on it! It's much more complicated than adding a tile based on whether or not you've caught a Pokémon.



Well, I finally did it!




The code for the exp bar is here: https://github.com/dannye/pokered-gen-II/commit/a59779093d5de28274ed261a8f04130735eb1cf2

Hey Danny, Congratulations on the exp bar hack! Will you be implementing this into the patch soon? I've tried to import the code myself, but I'm afraid it's a bit beyond my technical expertise.

Thanks! But Drenn already turned this hack of mine into a full CGB game! https://hax.iimarck.us/topic/3399/

Yeah, sorry. I will soon. I just want to fix the SGB border before I release the next update, cause I messed that up a while ago apparently.
 
I just want to say thanks for putting so much work into this! Replaying Pokemon Red in Gen 2 graphics has been a dream of mine for ages.

Just wondering, would this patch work for a Pokemon Blue game as well, or just Red? (Like I know a Fire Red patch wouldn't work on Leaf Green, but generation 1 is a lot different from generation 3, and since the games are close to identical aside from wild Pokemon, I thought I'd ask.)

Sorry if that's kind of a dumb question. Either way, great work!

Are you planning to maybe implement a slight bit more gsc music in the future, like for instance, Route 3?
 
Great work with EXP bar. But it still colour less outside the battle. You think about colorize that rom also outside the battle?

I'm glad I can help make your dreams come true! d:

Yes, this patch works on blue. The only side affect is that it makes 'Blue Version' on the title screen appear red.

Yes I plan to add the rest of the GSC Kanto music.

Please read my post above. I have already stated that Drenn has made this exact hack into a full CGB game. https://hax.iimarck.us/topic/3399/
 
You say that Drenn made this into a cgb game, but the music patch isn't part of it. The music part is the best part. Could you talk to Drenn and ask him to implement the music patch into it?
 
ask drenn if he could implement your latest gfx and sfx patch(v5) into his full color hack.

Drenn has been too busy to work on implementing the newer Graphics Patch features into his Full GBC hack, so I took the time to do it myself.
My source code for the Full GBC hack is here.

His hack's thread now has been updated with the Full GBC hack that has all the features all the way up to V1.5 of the Graphics patch.

Although, one cool difference is that the experience bar is now blue since the GBC game can handle more palettes.

Question

Will there be a blue version? (I assume not much extra work would have to be done but what do I know.)

Yes, there is a Blue version if you really want it. I figured there wouldn't be a much of a demand. Blue can be built from the source code:
https://github.com/dannye/pokered-gen-II
Or I can supply you with an. ips for Blue if you'd like.

(Although, the full GBC version already has a Blue version posted)
