[a id]j[/a id]FAQs

Q: I'm having problems with my emulator, how can I fix this?
A: Well, this thread can help you on almost every problem you may have with your emulator.

Q: What's an IPS patch and how can I patch it?
A: I recommend you to first read the Before Playing a Hack thread, that will answer your questions about ROM patching.

Q: Wow! Is Skarmory a legendary Pokémon?
A: Yes, in this hack it is. So there is only one Skarmory. And it is somehow related to Rayquaza.

Q: What about Darkrai? Wasn't it the main Pokémon?
A: Sorry, I love Darkrai too, but at the moment, I'm not thinking in adding 4th gen Pokémon nor Fakémon. Also this hack has a wind-theme storyline and Darkrai just don't match with the wind.

Q: Hey, I want to help in your hack, how can I do?
A: Sorry, this time I want to work alone, but I'll do a kind of raffle/contest for the beta test thing, so stay tuned.

Q: Will there be a translation of this hack in [insert language here]?
A: No, the only and default language will be English. If I ever think in translating it, I would translate it in Spanish, and I would do it alone. (Since I'm mexican ;O) New!

[destinedjagold]

Wow, I feel special to be the first one (with a valid reason) to post. ^^

Skarmory's the main Pokémon? Cool! I love Skarmory. ^^
Although I don't get why Skarmory's considered a legendary.., or do you mean of all species of Skarmory, this 'legendary' Skarmory's causing problems? Aw... :(

Screenies are looking nice. Cute Wurmples, btw~ ^^

I wish ye luck with this hack o'yours~

 

[Swimmer Ryan]

Looks like a nice game, good screenshots and sprites, I'll be looking forward to the beta!​

 

[Ray Maverick]

This looks good, surprizingly. I like the tiles you chose to use, the maps are attractive, and the story is simple, yet unique.
But I'm not sure if Skarmory will make a goo legendary Pokemon...

Anyway, good luck.

P.S: I think the grass is by 07Harris/Codec/Paranoid/.Tactic., I'm not sure though.

 

[Tyrantrum]

Thank the heavens, Zephyr is back! :D Glad to see it's back, at last.
The screenshots look great, in the storyline is kind of exciting. Good luck, buddy~

Hello, DJG, I'm glad you posted on this, thanks!
About Skarmory being a legendary, yes, in this hack Skarmory is a legendary Pokémon. So there is only one Skarmory. And it is somehow related to Rayquaza, in the storyline.

Looks like a nice game, good screenshots and sprites, I'll be looking forward to the beta!​

Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked it. :D

Thanks for commenting.
As I wrote above, Skarmory is a legendary Pokémon, so yeah I know you already know it, but I promise he will be a good legendary Poké. :3

And about the grass tiles... which ones do you mean?
The HGSS styled?
I took them from Kyledove or Alistair, I can't remember well. :P

Thank the heavens, Zephyr is back! :D Glad to see it's back, at last.

Michael! :3
Thanks for posting! :D

Well moving onto the main topic, I have created a FAQ section on the the first post. Also, I have been working with the storyline, I mean it is not finished yet, so expect changes soon.

 

[Chimchar 9]

This looks really good. I'm so glad it's back, also it's gave me an idea.... get back to hackng. Lol. I also look forward to new updates. Good luck Erick! :)

 

[TB Pro]

Whoa, Erick! This is a big surprise. Your boot screen is uber cute, btw. The storyline is kinda vague, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Tiles are good, and I see that you used my platinum tree :3 I wish you luck on your awesome hack mate.

 

[chrunch]

Yay, it's back! I played the alpha of your old Zephyr, and I thought it was amazing!
One of my favorite hacks, actually. but this looks even better.
I'm DEFIANANTLY supporting this! Good Luck!

 

[Esmas]

Yay, ZEPHYR HAS RETURNED! :D
So far it looks incredible to me, but the main grass palette doesn't look right...

Remember, I'm on your team. :)

By the way, there's an error with the tree here:

 

[Tyrantrum]

Read the FAQ. I hope I win beta testing. ;D

Also, I remember my first hack, thanks to you. Pokémon Soar; it was also based on Skarmory.
So anyway, I wish you a truck-load of luck with this, Erick~

 

[Esmas]

Read the FAQ.

Don't be telling me to read the FAQ, I'm on his team :P

I'm really curious about the storyline. Skarmory is an odd Pokémon for tokens.

LOL, this is so going on a fail blog :P

Well I like the graphics of this in general, the story line is kinda absent. How are you going to incorporate the hero into this situation? Besides, he lives there so he goes...

 

[HungryGengar]

Actually it's more like an introduction to the situation in the Sorah Region. The game actually will have the traditional Pokémon game story, with some TD's touch. ;D.

But you will see the actual storyline in a few days.

Thanks for commenting: Jesse, Chimchar 9, chrunch, Russ and 558122_DG. :)

EDIT: Thanks Russ for noticing that error.
I'll fix it as soon as possible.
*opens A-Map, opens map, fix error, returns*
Fixed it. :3

 

[Daeva Okami-Luca]

You did all this by yourself? Amazing. The sprites and maps look very nice. I could only manage to do spriting and some mapping. You have a lot of talent there. I hope all goes well.

I also like the idea of a Pokemon that isn't unique is used as a legendary. It's an interesting concept.

Thank you a lot. And actually yes, I made everything, I mean inserting tiles/sprites, mapping, scripting, y'know. Of course I used resources from other people/sites. :3

 

[Daeva Okami-Luca]

I always enjoyed item/pokemon editing the most. I almost finished my hack, ran out of free time and gave up.

 

[aquadan]

a bit vague.
but still good

also nice css

 

[Omega Zero]

Oh wow An anegl hack has landed on earth this hack is one of my favourite hacks back from 08 i played the demo and was... Amazed i hope this does better then the old version [:

 

[Tropical Sunlight]

This is looking as good as ever, Twilite!
Please, release more than just an alpha this time :P

Those Wurmples look fantastic :D
