Project: Generation 6 for Pokémon Essentials (Pokémon sprites and PBS files)

[mde2001]

This is a great add on and it has made my life so easy however I do have one problem. None of my trainers have the pokemon in the PBS file anymore and they are at random levels.
Have I just not replaced some file that I should have or is this a completely different problem.

Thanks for any help.

You have the a switch on (59 I think) that I made use of to have a trainer randomization, so that people could test out all the new moves and stuff easily. Flip it off, or remove the randomization (it's along with the encounter modifiers and stuff)

Thanks so much. That fixed everything!

Strange walkaround error

So I as walking around in my test field, when all the sudden..

---------------------------
Pokemon Essentials
--------------------------
Exception: NoMethodError
Message: undefined method `gender=' for #<PokeBattle_Pokemon:0x95660b0>
PField_Field:948:in `pbGenerateWildPokemon'

Scene_Map:68:in `main'

Okay, what's going on? This doesn't happen all the time, just every few encounters. I have Gen 6 for Pokemon Essentials and the save system, and I'm banking that the first one being the problem, but the field only generates Smeargle, Bulbasaur, and Pidgey. I've seen Smeargle and Pidgey, I'm thinking it triggers on Bulbasaur.

That was an error several patches back, involving Synchronize.

I got an error during battle when Light Screen is active and a Pokemon uses a special move (e.g. Fairy Wind):

But I do not know in which number of line will be in this project gen 6.

Alright, made some bug fixes in the patch, and all displayed text should reflect in-game text now thanks to Delusions of Originality.



If you just want the bug fixes quick, I've provided them here. These are the only erroring bugs I've found or had reported to me.



Light Screen AI

Spoiler:

Find this, add the red part

# Light Screen
    if skill>=PBTrainerAI.highSkill
      if opponent.pbOwnSide.effects[PBEffects::LightScreen]>0 && [COLOR=#ff3333]move.[/COLOR]pbIsSpecial?(type)

Harvest PokeBattle_Battle

Spoiler:

Find this and change the red part

[INDENT]# Harvest
      if i.hasWorkingAbility(:HARVEST) && i.item<=0  && i.pokemon.itemRecycle>0 #if an item was recycled, check
          if pbIsBerry?(i.pokemon.itemRecycle) && (rand(100)>50 || pbWeather==PBWeather::SUNNYDAY)
              i.item=i.pokemon.itemRecycle
              i.pokemon.itemRecycle=0
              pbDisplayEffect(i)
              pbDisplay(_INTL("{1} harvested one {2}!",i.pbThis,PBItems.getName(i.item)))
              [COLOR=#ff3333]i.[/COLOR]pbBerryCureCheck(true)
          end
      end
[/INDENT]

Cheek Pouch PokeBattle_Move

Spoiler:

Find this and change to the red part

if berryconsumed  && opponent[COLOR=#ff3333].hasWorkingAbility(:CHEEKPOUCH)[/COLOR]
      if opponent.hp<opponent.totalhp
        @battle.pbDisplayEffect(opponent)
        opponent.pbRecoverHP((opponent.totalhp/3).floor,true)
        if EFFECTMESSAGES
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("{1}'s HP was restored.",pbThis)) 
        else
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("{1}'s {2} restored health!",pbThis,PBAbilities.getName(self.ability))) 
        end 
      end
      @battle.pbSymbiosis(opponent)
    end
    if berryconsumed
      @effects[PBEffects::CanBelch] = true
    end

I have also fixed Red Card and Eject button as well, and certain powders effecting grass pokemon are fixed. They aren't erroring bugs, so I won't provide the code here. Safety Goggles was also added in.

 

[Diverscope]

I'm not sure if it's a bug or on purpose, but in pokemon.txt Arceus has the fairy type.

Oops, fixed.

 

[rigbycwts]

I don't know if this is fixed, but the sprite of one of Rotom's forms (the refrigerator) looked odd.

Spoiler:

Also, I noticed the menu icons for Vivillon were complete, and the version 2 sprites (the ones using the Elite Battle) only contain one pattern, I end up adding them manually, and numbered according to the menu icons. Numbered v2 Vivillon sprites here.

 

[Erassus]

No icons from Item585 to Item 596 in the Main Download, so i ripped and indexed them for the project. Here to download

Edit: Item588 (Weakness Policy) From 52x52 to 48x48

Spoiler:

Edit2: hope mej71 can add this to the main download of the project.

Oh, Maruno or some other admin moved my post to this thread without telling me, and so I made a thread duplicating it thinking I'd never posted it after all. Playing mind games with me. XD
It isn't Synchronize, though, it's Cute Charm, I realized later this was because I was walking around with Jigglypuff. I dunno, is there a patch for that too? I downloaded fairly recently.

Yeah, that's been patched yesterday, thanks.

 

[martinthebackup]

I don't know what's causing this, but whatever changes I do to a Pokemon's BattlerPlayerY value, both manually and through the editor, only seem to affect the Pokémon's backsprite in the Editor and not the game, like this:

Spoiler:

Anyone have any idea what's causing this? I tried replacing all the scripts, but no dice.

 

[Oskise]

Here's a few errors I found in Essentials Gen 6 that aren't present in Essentials 15.1:

1. Using Round gives the following error message:
Exception: NoMethodError
Message: undefined method `function' for nil:NilClass
PokeBattle_MoveEffects:3434:in `pbBaseDamage'
PokeBattle_Move:700:in `pbCalcDamage'
PokeBattle_Move:1452:in `pbEffect'

PokeBattle_Battler:3473:in `loop'
PokeBattle_Battler:3502:in `pbUseMove'
PokeBattle_Battler:3705:in `pbProcessTurn'

2. Shadow Pokémon have no weaknesses (they might also not have immunities or resistances, I haven't checked)
For example, using Disarming Voice on a Shadow Purrloin results in only neutral damage.

3. Some Primal Reversions and Megas are a bit too high up on the screen...

4. Some Kalos Pokémon has their hidden ability together with the other abilities.
Fletchling, for example looked like this:
Abilities=BIGPECKS,GALEWINGS
But it should look like this:
Abilities=BIGPECKS
HiddenAbility=GALEWINGS
Volcanion has Flash Fire as one ability which is just wrong and Diancie has Magic Bounce instead of Clear Body

EDIT: I can confirm that Shadow Pokémon completely ignore the type chart and are in general a bit buggy, such as sometimes being in Hyper Mode when you send them out etc.

I think I have Hyperspace Fury working:

class PokeBattle_Move_720 < PokeBattle_Move
  def pbEffect(attacker,opponent,hitnum=0,alltargets=nil,showanimation=true)
    if !isConst?(attacker.species,PBSpecies,:HOOPA)
      @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("But {1} can't use the move!",attacker.name))
      return false
      if [email protected]==1        
        @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("But {1} can't use the move the way it is now!",attacker.name))
        return false
      else  
        return true
      end
    end  
    ret=super(attacker,opponent,hitnum,alltargets,showanimation)
    if opponent.damagestate.calcdamage>0
      showanim=true
      if attacker.pbCanReduceStatStage?(PBStats::DEFENSE,false,true)
        attacker.pbReduceStat(PBStats::DEFENSE,1,false,showanim,true)
        showanim=false
      end
    end
    return ret
  end
end

Did you see the function code and its relevance?

So basically this is like a Essential copy. That means if Maruno makes a new version, we'll have to wait the gen 6 addon to be ported before using it and import our own changes. It's going to be a mess...

Is there a plan to merge the two projects? Essential included the gen 5 at one time, so I wonder if this is planned with the gen 6 addon. (with static battler sprites, gen 6 ones are made by Smogon).
