FireRed hack: Pokemon Legend of Fenju

[Maxim]

I like the town names a lot.

But it would be more cool if characters also had Chinese-esque names.

Anyway, Huoshi means fire... what? (Romanised Chinese is ambiguous like hell).

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

Is the shi the "Death" shi, "ten" shi, "is" shi or what?
Binggao means...something high. Is that why it's snowy?!

 

[Neti]

The Beta wont come out soon
yes, i said it will be at the end of the region, but only the mapping is at the end of it right now, not the scripting and spriting.
so youll have to wait a bit

for our chinese-lovers:
fenju means divided/divorced
binggao is just ice
huoshi ... i dont know how to say it in english, its "flammenmeer" in german, which would be "sea of fire" if you translate it word by word.... it means an inferno or sth like that
and gaoya means "high voltage"

the town names also have a meaning:
benyuan = origin
shengu = Canyon
guaiwan = going around the corner

snowpsire of course is the only english town name, it is inspired by the town snowpsire from "Fable: The Lost Chapters"
Binggao City doesnt have a realy meaning, it just means that it is the capitol of binggao
and you dont know anything about dahai and daoyu yet, so im not going to translate those :P

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

Ah...oops...xD
I wasn't really expecting it 'nyway.

"bing" means "ice". "gao" means "high"

ZVARRI! I deduce that Binggao is in the mountains!

Oh, Dahai is a port, isn't it?
It's name means "big ocean/sea"

Wow...how do you know so much (more than me!!) Chinese?

 

[Neti]

there are a lot of mountains, that is correct^^

Spoiler:

*image removed**image removed*
i think the routes and towns meet the original shape
i kept it small so you cant see the dateils :P the full image has 5000x4000 pixel
i hope i didnt sspoil too mcuh with this xD

ZetKa is still mapping the cave between binggao and Huoshi, but ill start mapping the first Huoshi route now
i spent the whole last day on making new block data and inserting new tiles xD

 

[Sarcastic Prince]

Will Misty have her walking sprites?

 

[destinedjagold]

the maps are really....... snowy?
is there, by any chance, a place where ice doesn't exist in the game..? :\

anyways, keep things up~

 

[Neti]

there will be not a single new map that is snowy. the next maps will all be desert style and after that there will be the gaoya maps with industry and stuff

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

Wow!
Nice one, Neti!

Just a SMALL question, how do you insert new block data...xD

Well, good luck on the mapping of Huoshi and Gaoya.
And I can't see nothing!!! GRRR!
All I can see is that the shape is really awesome...xD

 

[Neti]

i do not insert them, i make them, using advmaps block editor

 

[simplynaruto]

OOo nice hack.Can you show us that map pic in huge version for detailed look.

 

[Neti]

im sry but that would be too much information ;-) who wants to play a hack about whcih he already knows everything?

 

[simplynaruto]

Um gee i think me? Can you pm me it? I really like maps. And when i sa really i mean it.

 

[Neti]

no sry i wont show any new maps to anybody until the beta is out
ill make some new screenies sometimes, but i wont show whole maps

 

[simplynaruto]

Aha ok lol cause i thought you revealed everything already.

 

[.Vaporeon]

Wow.
Great work.
Keep it up.

 

[Quilava's Master]

i've seen the video on yupotube.. I LOVE THE STORY..o man and your maps are flawless and i don't recall seeing any script error gl on this one

 

[Neti]

you say you love the story, but you and noone else really knows it xD
what i revealed so far is only the beginning. believe me, what follows later will be way cooler than just searching your brother and helping him to fight Huoshi and Gaoya... i mean, come on... theyre fighting of religious reasons, thats not really a good reason for a war (even if it is likely to happen in the real world too)
and the hero cant be someone who is so dumb to support that
you can see this as a hint

edit: new screenies for my fans:
oh look: its a bridge!

Daoyu:

[Tropical Sunlight]

[[HoN] Jereziah]

Wow!

I cant wait for this!
