Where do I change the form of my rotom?
"I've been pretty quiet about Saffron on here lately and wanted to make a quick transparency post explaining what's going on and what the future of Saffron looks like.
Over the last several months I've been making major changes to Saffron which unfortunately has added a lot of time to the development schedule, but will be more than worth the payoff.
Starting with its core, Saffron is no longer using the CFRU as a base. I'm not going to go into detail about Saffron's brand new base yet, but it is essentially a decomp project now. I will not cut ANY features in this process. I was already at a point where the only thing I was still using from the CFRU was the battle engine, which is now replaced with DizzyEgg's battle engine for pokeemerald (which is better for several reasons imo). This transition is to make development quicker and space management more efficient as well as making larger and more in-depth features a more reasonable endeavor.
Prior to this shift in the project's base, I had made it up to the 7th gym, leaving just the 8th gym and the league to finish before a public release was ready. With this massive change, I've been moving the game into my new custom base piece by piece. At the same time, I've been modifying old features and creating new ones. A few examples being a new bag with more pockets for organization, a new overworld palette system for more detailed and vibrant environments, a fresh battle UI, and much more."
When it will be completed it. Will be best gba rom hack in 2.5 years
