Ruby or Firered?

[Shiny Quagsire]

I like firered. I just can't stand editing ruby's images and stuff. It bugs the crap out of me!

Well, to be honest, I don't fully believe that Emerald isn't unstable.

I am an Emerald hacker, and I've observed something that my hack has in common with other Emerald hacks: Sound corruption.

Every Emerald hack (including my own) I've tried suffers from sound corruption, and what I mean by that is when some music has random long annoying "beeeeps" playing everywhere. I've heard that in EVERY Emerald hack I've tried, and I'm not sure if this is also the case with other Emerald hack, but in my hack I've somehow managed to corrupt the cries of Heracross, Seedot, Nuzleaf, Shiftry, Clamperl, and Salamence.

So Emerald is basically just fine, but you're probably gonna end up having some sound corruption, seeing as EVERY Emerald hack on PokeCommunity has sound corruption.

I'll take a Heracross that cries like a Kricketune if it comes with a Battle Frontier, match call, animated sprites, 2v2 batles, etc.

I'd take a Heracross that cries like a Kricketune even if it didn't come with a Battle Frontier, match call, animated sprites or 2v2 battles! That cry is epic!

But yes, emerald is great.

The only thing I don't like is the two-tile doors and the fact that I'm too lazy to delve into animation editing, no matter how simple. =|

I like ruby it's easy to hack(for me)

Fire red is better in my opinion because of its tilesets and its just easier.

Nevermind what I said about Emerald earlier, according to HackMew, the sound corrupts because us hackers don't know what free space in Emerald is. The main reason is that since most of us have automatic repointing enabled in AdvanceMap, what it does it that it repoints to things that aren't free space.

Emerald is NOT unstable, it's the best rom EVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just be careful when repointing stuff, my advice is to disable automatic repointing in AdvanceMap, and try repointing things near the end of the rom. And about the cry corruption I experienced earlier, that was probably because there were some 00 bytes in the actual data of the cries, and AdvanceMap thought it was free space.

I'd probably go with FR/E 'cause both of those are OK.

Me too. I would pick FR/E because they just seem to be more.... Hackable.... I would pick FR over Emerald.
