[Released] Project Vanguard (Updated 12/11/24)

Having issues extracting the 3.5 rar folder. Downloaded from your website as per mentioned above. Tried extracting multiple times with me not being able to extract two files from the rar folder. This also includes downloading the file again (just in case it was corrupted) and had the same issue. Had no issues with extraction on the previous version.

Hope you can also put up 3.5 and 3.5.1 zip folders as alternatives. Just wanted to get into the latest update and thank you for your work!
 
is there a way to change the protagonist sprite to the old one or to whatever one you want
 
I can't access the download link, it says "This site can't be reached"

Edit: nvm i disabled the antivirus and it works again

Loving this game so far.

I'm also curious about something. I caught a Buneary from a random encounter that has all 31 IVs. Is this a thing that was programmed into the game for some reason? I do have the gene charm.

Edit: I've actually started catching a bunch of pokemon with multiple 31s, so maybe it's not as improbable as I thought. I don't understand why, though, since I've had the gene charm for a while and this wasn't happening.

Same here via a fighting gem with my own eevee too, level 25 right now. Really want to use the fighting evo but for some reason they aren't evolving despite holding it.

I already updated and applied the recommended patch from the site days ago, to my save that originally started on an earlier version (I think 2.3 or 2.9? Can't remember now) but I was very early in the game, right on Route 1 so that couldn't be the issue. I wonder if the gem evolutions are bugged somehow from the patch.

Playing on 3.0.8. Currently reshuffling my team around chapter 10, looking to add sound eevee to my team but can't. Eevee is currently lv 8 (haven't touched it) it has a sound type move but when it holds the sound gem and I level it nothing happens.

Is my eevee too low level? Has this pokemon not been introduced as of the version I'm playing?
If you all are still having this problem, here's what you actually need to do:
1) Get the gem of the type you want to evolve eevee into.
2) Give it to the eevee to hold.
3) Finally, level it up tp lvl 32.
It has to be leveled up to lvl 32 with it holding the type gem it wants to evolve into.
Unfortunately, you can't level it up to 32 until chapter 13, so hold on till then.
Hope this helps someone. :)

Having a similar problem but it is with the bug gem and mine is level 30.
Look at my above answer. Hope this helps!
 
Hi, I'm really enjoying this game! I was wondering how/where i can find a sweet apple?
 
Really fun game. It's pretty much one of the only projects on this site that i actively keep an eye on to catch new versions (ive been doing that since ~Version 2.3.31 / patch 2.3.33 back in 2023).
Outside of a few tiles placed on the wrong layer here and there, the only thing i could actively criticize is the high encounter rate of wild pokemon (maybe i missed a shop that actually sells repels but im currently at the sewer section and having to navigate through the maze-like layout while encountering a wild Pokemon every 5-10 steps is a bit annoying.)
 
guys when i try to open the vanguard zip it says its damaged or unkown please help me fix and play it
edit:maybe cause its rar file and not a zip file so ayrei can u make a zip file of the download and send it to me please

Unzip the rar file just like you would a zip file. For your problem just look at them as the same thing.

normally there ius an item in your bag in key item wich is called "infinite repel" that you can activate/deactiavate anytime you want
 
it was a really cool experience. I have a question tho. It is normal that Calvin in his last two fight have way higher level than the level cap and higher level than other character making him almost imposible to beat ? (I was in normal difficulty and I had to pass in casual to beat those two fight) Because if it is intentional it kinda spoiler :
Spoiler: spoiler about Calvin characterisation
 
Hello, very nice game you've there, the story is strong enough.
Tho I've one question, do you plan to add another difficulty mode above expert, as a real challenge to this game? Like smart AI with top tiers +3levels and maxed IVs/EVs.

Expert mode is too ez for any nuzlocker :grin:
