That is awesome new, I can't wait to play through once more with more features that people come up with randomly. Cause that's what we all do, we go what would be cool, oh that's awesome *tells DarkDoom*
But the thing i'm most looking forward to is my quiz
*runs to check if i've programmed it in*- yep it's there. (there's only 3 total right now, I haven't been doing much in it due to school)
I like were mew-nani's going, I had in mind that you can choose one shiny kanto starter from oak after you complete the shinydex (this way it's possible to get all three kanto starters), but as long as we can get that ONE shiny somehow, I really don't mind how you get it or what it is. On a brighter side: REALLY ONLY A LITTLE OVER A WEEK ALREADY CAN'T WAIT!!! [It makes a great early b-day present too 'cause my b-day's the 27th!!!]
EDIT: Also love your choice in corrupts, and I like how kingler's claws remind me of the rubber-band they'd on the lobster hands in the super market.
All three kanto starters will still be possible, All three can be obtained from the academy master at different stages of the game. Currently only 2 can be obtained, but ill probably add a second challenge battle around v1.0
I thought it would be neater to be able to change one of your existing, fully evolved pokemon into a shiny. that way you wouldn't have to get a lv5 shiny in your team of lv40 pokemon. If you already have a charizard, you can turn him into a black charizard. (and back?) assuming you were alert enough to
scan the shiny (defeating it will give you a nugget and nothing more)
This is a reply for you DarkDoom when you mentioned a good backup program. With my game, me and one other person share files with a program called TortoiseSVN. My partner had set it up for me so unfortunatly I cant tell you how you get it to work, but I can tell you no matter what you do, if you submit your work to your partner, your partner will always have what you need or you may have what your partner needs. The key is reliability of your partner. I think the best idea for you it to look more into the program and find someone you work with the most on your project to be part of your SVN group (BCKC)
Seems like a good sharing program. I'm now using a combination of
mirror.exe and
dropbox.
mirror.exe is a simple program that copies/syncs a folder to another location. previously I used to have my normal SPEE folder, and a backup one. every time I ran the program, any changed files would sync up with the backup folder.
This would mean if something happened to my SPEE folder, the backup would still be alive, but if something happened to my hard drive/computer then I'd be screwed, so every week or so I used to backup on my USB instead.
Now, my backup folder lies in my dropbox folder. It functions exactly like before, but all the contents of the dropbox folder automaically get uploaded to my dropbox account.
So.. modify the game -> run mirror.exe -> updates backup in dropbox folder -> dropbox folder syncs with internet.
so along as the internet is still alive, my backup should be too.
