Why don't you create the Day/Night System based on the ammount of steps the player makes. Just like with the eggs. If a player has made i.e. 50.000 steps then enters and leaving a building/cave it will change from day to night and visa verca. When it changed, reset the stepcounter to zero.

The thing is, we've talked (Mastermind and me) about it and the only way we thought about it is by using the Play time (it's the most close to a clock we have), I dont know about steps, probably it could have the same result, but who knows. Anyway, the day/night system, if implemented, will probably be one of the last things to do in the game.

I'm really glad to see you're still dedicated to this Zel. It's been a lot of work for you and it's great to see you finally getting there. It's ground-breaking.

The mini-games look great, it's great to see the original things from you, expecially as the whole project is a remake. In fact, I feel a lot of your talent is really restrained on this project, so I'm really excited to see what you've got planned for the final release with the (I quote) "new region-like-island or something".

But, yeah, it's still brillant work Zel, and I'm still watching intently.

Good luck as always.

Thanks, GC. Nice to hear that from you (yeah, I'm a bit proud thanks to your comment, how silly... :P)

Anyway, nothing can stop me from having my touch into everything I do, it's something stronger than me, but, even if some people like that, I know there's others that wont, and it's tough to avoid that thought. I'll keep balancing everything as I can.

By the way, I have a few things planned for the island or whatever, but, I cant overdo it. I want more gametime, but also, I should leave some ideas for future generations :laugh:

Thanks, again.

Hey Zel, I dont know if this has been answered but will there be gyms on this new "new region-like-island"?
Anyways, I love the remix of Goldenrod City cause it was my favorite tune in the G/S/C days.
Click to expand...

Nope, we had enough Gyms, and the island or something is not that big to hold many Gyms (and it'd be pointless to have only one or two, because on the other hand, is bigger than the islands in the Orange Archipielago), instead, I want this place to have a few areas that you need to do something in order to get access to the main location in the Island, where you'll probably be playing a good bunch of hours.

So what about Crystal? Will the 3 mentioned pokemon appear in those 2 routes in Shiny Gold? (along with some other pokemon that are on other routes in Crystal)
Click to expand...

I only used the guides for Gold and Silver. That means Crystal hasnt been considered in the Pokemon locations.

Che Carlos!
Why not better an other simple idea, for example an Racer Bike.
Tomorrow, maybe, i'll show you the images of this possible game. Of course, i'f you like.
=D
Click to expand...

I had many ideas of races, but all of them imply generating certain AI for the opponents, which can be a pain (as it'd also depend on the terrain you are playing and lot of other variable stuff). At least, I dont want to do it, because in the way I'd like to do something like that, it'd be too painful and it'd take me a lot of time.

The very first part, when you hear: C;B;Bes - C;D;Cis;C;B.
Spoiler:

I thinks it's way too loud! (well, the instrument playing that part is too loud)
When I played pokemon Gold I remember a more faster part at the beginning(which in your remix I hear very soft)
I think you should make that part a bit Louder, and leave the slower part more in the backgroud.

(If you know what I mean.)

Wish you luck with all your next sound work!

The gsc wild battle theme will be better if it had more instruments (obviously it's a wip). I have no complaints for the others except for colnex25's gsc champion battle theme because it should be low pitched (hope that's not off topic but's it's going to be in SG).
Click to expand...

I liked this kind of comments. Because I'm sure it could help us improve the music (and give me less headaches in the long run). So, keep it up, dont be shy, if you think certain part could be improved, go ahead and post about it. I just hope clonex and Magnius can listen to your opinions and try to do something about them :)

does any1 now were to get tm 50 brick break in this game???
Click to expand...

Please, redirect all the gameplay questions to the Shiny Gold Help thread, where someone (probably not me, as I'm not that knowledgeable about my own game XP) will answer your questions.

Magnius said:
lol I might even take a stab at some of the songs Clonex25 already did now. No offense to him, but while he has a lot of good remix, I did listen to a few I felt didn't fit.
Click to expand...

Well, interesting. Probably in the future we could make another thread or something so people can decide which tracks would be better. For now I'm concentrated on other stuff.

Anyone have a hard time catching Mudkip? I run into a Lv. 1 Mudkip (not say where so you guys can find out) I get its health down to 2-3 pixels (with the screensize at 1x probably 3-4 hp) i used 5 bloody pokeballs on it and it broke out of 3 of them with out shaking and 2 with 2 or 3 shakes.

The thing is last time I played the hack I caught Mudkip in one try. I have a Saved State on my encounter with Mudkip, I've tried at least 10 times already to catch the damn thing.

Two words: False Swipe.

WHOO! I am finally playing the GAME! I can not believe it! I am only just going to cherrygrove, but still! I love the invention of the Phone card and phones in different places. Not to mention the PokeBeeper. This would be even more awesome if Nintendo took it and ran with it for DS so you can do WiFi and send messages to eachother like that.
Click to expand...

Nah, they'll one day learn that Gold was the best generation and make their own, I suppose.

Goofnaguy said:
can someone tell me if I can still find dunsparce in the dark cave (the one before violet city) like I could in the origional g/s/c and if it and the other swarm pokemon (yanma, marill, etc) have trainers that say when they are swarming or if it swarms at all? Maybe it just counts as a really rare pokemon that doesnt swarm? Someone help plz.
Click to expand...

Just to remind that swarms dont exist. But I think they just became rare Pokemon (much like the Silver only Pokemon), so, yep, once you see a rare Pokemon, you know what you should do...


And with that concludes this series of questions. I just posted to take care of that because there's no important progress till the weekend.
 
How challenging will be the 3 final gyms? I'm asking the kind of lvs we'll be facing, also the type of pokemon?
 
ssj92 said:
im pretty sure it'll be around 70+ since the ones u can currently play are around 60+

im talkin bout da "X" version btw
Click to expand...
That would be impossible for the X version, because the rematch with Koga and the 3rd Ashlee battle had upper 70's and the 80's. I could understand for the regular, but not for the x, I'm anticipating around lv 85 for brock.
 
I once downloaded a dex from this page, it has all the pokemon locations from beta 5, so maybe check the first post if you need help locating pokemon.
 
BRTD said:
Plz put in the crystal wild pokemon locations if possible.
Click to expand...

He's not doing that, as he specifically said many times before, since this is a GOLD remake, not a Crystal one. There will be Silver locations though, he just stuck them in where they normally would be.
 
Why are the crystal locations so important anyway =P
As long you can catch all pokemon there wouldn't be a problem right.
 
Oh Zel, I am forever in debt to you. This looks like its to be a great rom hack.

I just wish that the small things (field location, lack of pokegear) didnt turn me off so much. I LOVED G/S/C and I will love this game just the same. As soon as I start playing it.
 
Hey zel,
Are you going to add more minigames too?
For the new island you could make Carlos be there and you can fight him every so often and if you win he will dis you and won't battle you for awhile and when he will re-battle you he will have stronger Pokemon.

your patch file(.ips) should be called ShinyGoldB5_ByZel or ShinyGoldXB5_ByZel

unless u renamed it

also to safely patch beta 5. use a clean rom and its recommended to start all over.

ShinyGold B5 was released December 31, 2007 & ShinyGoldX B5 was released January 4th, 2008
