FireRed hack: Pokemon Sterling Silver: Cry of Celebi

Not open for further replies.
@Dirk- Backups are something we do try to keep up with to prevent such a problem, so no worries there.^^ As for a demo, that could probably be done and be a good idea. I'll discuss it with pyro. If so, it would fix the skeetendo event and the bugs with pokedex data as well as maybe give a indication of something new weve been working on without actually giving it ALL away yet, as a sort of hint thingy^^ We most likely will, but the decision is not mine alone ot make as Im only half the brains behind this hack :p

@everyone- Always nice to hear positive feedback, especially as positive as yall's is! :D But if your impressed now, wait till you get the beta with ALL of Johto! ^^
 
Okay now i think your just teasing us. XD

anyhow, how is this coming along, and new screens?

KUTUW!

Well today we spent a lot of time planning a very cool, very large part of the story that will happen a little later, and inserting graphics for the pokemon that will be in that pyramid^^ Screens should be up later or tomorrow. Its coming along pretty good^^

Okay, maybe I was teasing a bit :p. I love dropping random hints about things to come to keep you on the edge of your seat.

Also, it has been decided, Ho-oh will be removed, being replaced by the as-yet-unreleased to yall pokemon that will be in the pyramid. Lugia will still be in johto however, although the way in which you capture him will be changed, to make it more interesting. However, the way you DO catch him will be a surprise for you all to find out, although what I will say is it will be very cool and will take considerable work on our part to get it in, but it will be worth it^^
 
mental planning is a huge part of it so glad to hear you got a big chunk of the plot figured. I'm not too crushed by the loss of ho-oh....especially if moltres will be in it...but even if he isn't, I'm not a fan of their movesets in first and second gen anyway.
glad to here you're changing the way the Lugia event happens...always love a new challenge :D
can hardly wait for the new screenies, keep up the great work!
 
Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres will all still be making appearances, as are Mew and Mewtwo. Also, We done a bit of talking on how to rework Celebi's story from Crystal, I think it will dfinitely prove interesting^^
 
There will be some 3rd and 4th Gen Legendaries, not releasing which ones yet though. Plus some things wont be released, they'll be left for you to play to find out^^ Afterall, wheres the fun in playing if you know EVERYTHING before hand. haha.
 
[PokeCommunity.com] Pokemon Sterling Silver: Cry of Celebi


Here's a little something(saved as a JPG so its a bit distorted, but thats intentional as we've had graphics theives in the past[Liquinn]. We have a real copy thats imported to the rom already).

As you can see, this is of course releasing one of the 3rd and 4th Gen Pokémon but not where it is or how it is obtained^^
 
Oh wow :o its sooo hard to rip the graphics from a Ruby rom and reduce its colour like this one.

Seriously man no ones going to take your graphics. Though even exporting it s a JPEG I could easily clean the image up and export it as Bitmap again.
 
Well not to be insulting :P
I remember when i played the beta , that the zigzagoon sprite was missing a part of his tail .. I haven't played the game for over a month , so i don't know if that has changed :P
Ohw and about Groudon .. Importing it like that , would mean that it would missing part of his back , same like the zigzagoon sprite :P
As i'm a spriter i can try to fix it .. only if you want it offcourse :)

Anyway the hack looks good :)
 
Lol, well first I'll take a shack at it myself, but as I specialize in advancey building graphics, and "De-Advanceying" I may have to ask you to take a whack at it^^ And I know good people could still get it from that, Ive done it before(in fact with that same sprite, I accidently saved as JPG after takign the time to fix it, I had to go back and fix it again XD) but the person we were talking about is a total n00b. However, hes been banned enough I think he learned his lesson, so that'll be the only thing we mess with as a jpg. the restwill be standard PNG images as usual^^
 
Just to let you know I was playing the game, and it was fun (till something weird happened at Route 32, a wild battle was supposed to start, but the game crashed... Weird, considering everything was running normally till then), then well... I lost everything as you know, so I will wait till you release the next beta to play once again.

Just as a little suggestion (I don't know, maybe you don't want to or don't plan to yet), I think it would be better if you make some changes to the maps in Johto (even if it's minor changes), because I think the game is set a few years after Gold, right? And a few things could change in the maps, maybe?

Keep it up, and good luck!
 
Ah, yes. We've taken care of that problem now as well with the wild batle crashing. And yes there will be map changes, some more minor some bigger. ones that havent been changed are gonna be changed by the next demo. Like azalea and violet havent changed at all I dont think in that demo, but wil be by the next one. Obviously Goldenrod has the PCC now and the magnet train is stuck in Saffron, and Ecruteak has that new train station and the house talkin about the burned tower that used to be there, and Cherrygrove has a gym now, also Blackthorn has been changed a bit, mahogany will be different, as will olivine and cianwood. Routes will also have some new changes as well. (for example, one route now has a Power Plant, to power the Bullet Train to the battle tower, and such. But Yes all towns will hav changes, some big some small, to reflect it being about 3 years later than GSC.
 
hello, this is my first post on this forum and so far i am loving this hack.
however it did occur to me that while changing stantler into a legendary this will mean that you will be able to breed it.
i just thought i would let you know.
keep up the good work.
 
actually, it wont mean you will be able to breed it as we can change its breeding groups to be none like legendaries. We can change most everythign about the pokemon. the only thing im not quite sure about is their sprite in the menu and box and all, but that will be as well im sure, jsut gotta find that byte. Anyways, Glad ya love the hack and thanks for the concern^^
 
This hack is still looking great! So, anymore screens?

I can't wait for that BETA with all of Jhoto and first town of Latio.

So, i bet you are pretty close to being done, how much of Jhoto is done?
 
Well we still have about 3 towns to do in Johto, but they should go pretty quickly, unless we hit some unforseen New screens should be up soon!
