Red hack: Pokemon: Wisteria

[Heart's Soul]

Okay, I went back... further back... to Red. Found the Map and the Pointers, best read in a while.

I'm not entirely sure music has the same format as in Gold. Gold introduced more "instruments" which cannot be accessed in Red (unless you use ASM since the gameboy has the same music capabilities as the gameboy color).

Is the document on Datacrystal? If so, then we're on the right page. Either way, I think Gold and Red have the same instruments, just Gold has them in a different location, as it's 2MB. Red is just 1.

Naw, I went through all the percussion instruments on Red and there wasn't the kick from Olivine's tune.

Meh. Text Editing is kind of annoying as the text is thrown around the ROM. What programs are you using?

 

[~Red]

Redmap, TLP and a hex editor. Only tools I used.

Haha, loved the California Gurls video ;D

Thought this was dead, but its great that you're working on it again... after a pretty long hiatus as i remember it. good luck

Here are those screens I promised hahaha.

 

[Heart's Soul]

That's really cool screenshots! I'm not that great at hacking yet, but this looks to be very promising!

Modified the first post ALOT. Storyline is changed slightly and have added character profiles and a new feature..

You still going to credit him for that ;) ?

The new screenshots look cool but are you still going to use the old Oak script (maybe remove it from the game if possible) ?

Besides, I don't like the tiles being completely white, some of its blocks should contain dirt or something (I think they originally do).

I'm actually in the process of dissassembling the event. I want to modify it but it still meets my needs anyway. Late for class? Run to the school. But I'd like the school to be in a different location so I may need to modify the event code.

Hex Editing filled the need, he has to find the event.

I agree about the tiles. I mean it's cool you replaced the original ones, but... Well, they could be better, in my opinion. I know you're limited to Black, White and two shades of gray, but...
This screenshot, for example:

Firstly and most prominently, that path badly needs a pattern/texture. Nothing extravagent, you could even port the GSC one or even go with the original Red one. Plain and white ust looks plain odd.
Secondly, the tree. Again, it's cool that you inserted a new one, but it looks a little odd with the 8x8 squares at the top right and top left of the trees. You should make them the same shade as the ground 'beneath' the rest of the tree. Granted, there wouldn't actually be shadows there in any case, but it just looks nicer, IMO. More polished.

Anyway, just my input. Brown is the only other Gen 1 hack I've paid attention to (not that there were many), and even though it's frickin awesome... I do know that it's difficult and awkward, too, so good luck with your endeavours :)

Smallish update.

Fixed the blank road tiles:

Changed Rival's Sprite to Beauty (since it is your teacher):

The reason it says "GARY" is because I used a save file where my rival was called GARY. Rival's and Hero's names are now all female.

UPDATE:

Finished the Graphical Part of the Town Map (I have yet to fix the positions of towns on it):

Also fixed the intro sprites:

Progress is going fast! Can I just give a big shoutout to Sawakita for all his help and support :)

 

[~Red]

Well, I've decided to post a video showing the introduction. Hope you all like it:


(Might still be processing)


Has anyone got anything to post?

 

[~Red]

Sorry mods, it must be painful to see a Quadruple post but I have to bump this because.....BETA 1 is released! It takes you up to the first Gym.

Known Bugs:
-Map positions and text are not finished, but the graphical side it done.


Any bugs/glitches please report them. Enjoy :)

Oh my god- California Gurls in 8-bit?
You freakin' OWN, lol.

I have a further suggestion about those trees- see my attachment. I think the ones on the left would look better (or any sort of texture behind the whole tree). If that isn't possible for a GB ROM (though it should be), the ones on the right would be an alternative. If you've no intention to change the tree, I will cease :P

The new texture on that path is nice, for the record.

Have you tried the BETA? I'm such an impatient bastard, I can't wait for the first review haha.

EDIT: Tried your tileset idea and this is what came out:
