The screenshot in the OP is from Adventure Red, which, while nominally sounds like a good idea, is full of so much shitty fanfiction that at this point calling itself a manga hack is false advertising.

You literally need to collect blood from dead people in this hack to create a pentagram.

GBA roms can be up to 32MB. You could set up some sort of bank switching system to bypass that limit, but it's probably not worth the hassle.

So apparently some people from the Nuzlocke Forums are almost finished with an English translation of Vega, that might be cool.

The only thing that really ever bothered me about it was all the Pokemon anime insertions and Manlychu, but otherwise isn't Vega usually considered a top-tier hack?

Im working on a GSC hack

Its a hack of crystal and is basically like how R/B were, fun and kid friendly games but with a little seriousness to it, which mostly comes from the evil team

The evil team is basically just a gang that has no real story, they steal pokemon and you try to stop them, simple stuff

These are the two sprites for them, the regular grunts and then the higher ups. I based them off of the yakuza. How do these sprites look for them? What should I do to better them, im mostly concerned about the grunt one since its face looks weird and it just looks like shit to me.

Coming off as a pretentious autismo. Here goes.
I have the knowledge and experience (5 years of ROM hacking) to make a full-fledged hack (FireRed) by myself, but I always fall short when trying to come up with an appropriate story.
I have these great ideas of custom features and things that would happen, but never a coherent story to go with it.
I know some people don't like heavy-story gameplay, and trust me, I don't either, but I feel like if I wanted to break the default Gamefreak cycle of "Get 8 badges, beat bad team, become champion" there would have to be some sort of major story.
So here's what I would want to make, bear with me, it could be considered edgy):
>Post WW3 (Nuclear war) setting
>Cities and routes are in ruins (desert, flood, etc)
>People battle you, trying to rob you
>Later in game you somehow 'get' a safe-house
>Able to recruit some people after battle, that later battle for you, find items for you, etc.
Some noticable maps would be:
>Nuke site
>City/major area that gets flooded later in the game
>Some cities/routes being in complete ruins

These are just some of the features I would love to use, while them also having some corelation to the story.

Okay, what would the story be? Is there some evil organization like the Enclave ruling from the shadows that you have to take down? Is it management of this city area?

How would Pokemon change? Would some of them change due to the harsh conditions? Would you have another class of Pokemon, sort of like Pokemon Uranium? What would the distribution be? Would I have access to all 721 Pokemon, or maybe 649?

Why is the world in shambles? Why was the war started? How does the culture of the world change? You claimed there were robbers, okay. Do they form groups or mostly work individually? How do new cities function? What was the culture of the region, and what is it now?

Why would I want to explore? What awards are there in the wilderness? Would I get TMs? Rare Pokemon? Move tutors? Miscellaneous items? People I can recruit? Will there be sidequests and an open world feel?

Can you at least try to answer some of these questions? I feel you are trying to create Fallout: The Pokemon Game and while I don't discredit any idea immediately I am skeptical. I might not be if this was a little less vague.

You strike up a fair amount of points and I commend you for that. Will have to screencap this post for future reference if I do want/decide to make it.
>Is there some evil organization?
Maybe two rivaling gangs that fight for turf, while the player, being a lone wolf, can decide what gang they want in if they prove to be strong?
>Will there be sidequests and an open world feel?
Yes. It would be somewhat linear, but new, big areas would be opened up as you 'progress.' And of course, I already have quite a few ideas for some sidequests.

What's up /heg/, got RPGXP on a sale, and figured I'd like to take a shot at doing something.

I'm learning mapping and scripting as I go, thought it might be reasonable to attempt to re-map HGSS with the given sprites, the Gen V/VI Pokemon, and if that works, add a better follower script (hearts/faces and a few more interactions based on location/typing/happiness.)

Would anyone be interested in an essentials game like that? Here's a few of the maps I have so far. What do you think?

>>24818655
Hmm, ok.

I only drew reference to Uranium because of Nuclear Pokemon (Pokemon that are significantly stronger than normal due to radiation or whatever) but it might do you good to either play through a Fallout game or look at the gameplay of one. Not being Todd Howard or anything, just saying that your idea really does resemble Fallout: The Pokemon Game, whether intentionally or not.

See, in most Fallout games, you can explore most of the world from the start, only it's difficult due to the strength of enemies that you encounter around the map. Maybe you can place higher levelled Pokemon where you don't want the player to go?

As for the gangs who fight for turf, can the player be a part of both and then decide to fuck one over? Or do you have to stick with one and that's it? Or can you have the option to destroy both gangs or even make a peace treaty between them? And who would head them, and who are key members? It's kind of redundant to make only the admins and the team leaders be the only somewhat memorable part of evil teams in Pokemon, so couldn't we have a focus on some regular grunts, new members, etc.?

What sidequests are you thinking about?

Sorry for so many questions, I'm just hoping I can spin a few gears in your head. I do want to see a hack or RPG Maker game that breaks the traditional cycle but I don't have the time or drive to do it.

No encounters planned, possibly an item that lets you encounter a Surskit/Lotad in the puddle next route, but I thought it looked nice. Would you say put some brown dirt/flowers instead?

>>24819334

I'm a novice at essentials, right now all I can do is maps + basic encounters on the overworld by talking. Was using Drayno's Sacredgold as an inspiration (bigger wild list, 2-3 'special' events per route that involve you looking for hidden routes, giving NPC's items, chasing a wild Pokemon around, etc. Was thinking for route 29:

Normal Encounters:

Sentret
Bidoof
Pidgey
Ratata
Sandshrew
Bellsprout
Caterpie

Event:
Surskit (Puddle, needs Honey or something)
Starly (Hidden Grotto, beat a lvl. 15 Staravia)
Scatterbug (Hidden Grotto, Vivillion with a sick Spewpa gives you an Oran berry that you need to grow 3 more of in the dirt at the top of the route)
Roggenrolla (Hidden grotto, runs away from you, have to follow him through a little mini cave system in the dark)

Anyone else feel like this ruins a lot of hacks? Not only are you unsure about their base stats, learned moves, etc. but the physical special split often screws them over hard. Most importantly, though, they usually replace perfectly good pokemon in that generation.

Don't be a genwunner, then. It isn't like it's hard to google the stats, anyway.

If a hack has future gen Pokémon but didn't bother to add the split, it's shit anyway, but that isn't the fault of the future gen mons.

>they usually replace perfectly good pokemon in that generation.
>replacing Pokémon
yes, that's indefensible. expanding the dex, on the other hand, is fine.

I don't think base stats will be an issue unless you're doing a Gen 1 hack (and the special stat split is possible now thanks to the disassembly, I know TRE2 has it). Depending on the generation you can add a lot of later-Gen moves as well. The split can be added in every Gen now as well.

If only there was a clean Fire Red hack with all Pokemon up to Gen 5 or 6 and some other nice benefits that we might know from the current Gens, I would go back into Rom hacking.

I always want too much. I can't and will never understand ASM. Mapping and XSE is doable for me, it takes some time, but I can do it if I spend enough time for it, ASM, despite the guides and helps; I can't get the hang of it.

I want stuff like class-based music, implemented items and abilities from later gens.

My autistic mind is full of fantasy so I could easily come up with a decent story, but meh.

Jambo51 has done the class-based music already, and a fuck ton of items and abilities from later gens are being ported to FireRed and, to a lesser extent, Emerald.

Although judging by your aversion to ASM you probably won't enjoy getting them to work.

So Jagold rebooted Broken Timeline and started from scratch, revealed in 2006 Youtube text video format. I already figured he was scrapping the five regions shit but now it's official. Maybe we'll get a decent hack, LoG really was a noticeable improvement from RoL and RR even if I wouldn't call it good, and it's been four years since then. Here's hoping LoG protagonist causes the holocaust between games to continue the cycle of every protagonist making things worse than they started by the next game.

Maybe I'll play the Broken Timeline demo now, I was holding off so the finished version could be my first experience but if it's being remade from scratch it can't hurt.

Huh, so I checked out Broken Timeline's beta.

I'm honestly shocked at how bad it is. I've played the entirety of Rescue Rangers and all his other hacks, I know what Jagold is capable of, and I'm still shocked that it's this bad.

Literally the FIRST thing you come across in the game after you set out is a Flash cave. And then Chaomega (who is your only Pokémon at the start, despite having a BST of 1240 in past RD games) lights up the cave and the entire thing has unfinished map tiles that get revealed when it's lit up. And then it just gets worse from there.

Nigga you don't understand, it looks like this.

Skyline was an unfinished beta of Jagold's and it was 100x more polished.

But the whole cave is a Flash maze, and a long one, with a high encounter rate and dead ends and required HM use and you don't have running shoes. The empty void is just the icing on the cake. And this is your first impression.

We'll go with boy then (if nobody seems to give a shit by the time we have to pick regions I'll fuck off and stop).

It seems this hack expects you to have played the original trilogy, which is fine for me but I'll gives you a cliffnotes version of each game:

>Reign of Legends: In the Gento region, a trainer goes on an ordinary Pokémon adventure, meets a fedora warrior entangled with Shadow Lugia, saves the region fighting multiple teams and poorly-done scripts, beats champion Ash Ketchum, and saves Shadow Lugia. In the third game we find out said trainer went insane from shadow energy and destroyed all of Gento.

>Rescue Rangers: Furry and his friends get turned into Pokémon, join a rescue team, fight Fakemon Legendaries, defeat Giratina. Furry's author insert friend gets possessed by Giratina, gets saved, and they have to fight another Fakemon, Chaomega, because author insert was supposed to have died and it'll split the timeline. Author insert gets saved, everyone goes back to humans, timeline's fate uncertain

>Life of Guardians: Trainer goes on ordinary adventure, meets like ten rivals, half of them have Fakemon Legendaries as guardians, at one point you can turn evil but the ending is the same because Jagold is a hack, find out Shaymin/Giratina is your guardian (the latter if evil), meet the real big bad behind everything wrong, Zah, defeat them, they aren't dead and break the timeline, defeat them again with their six 1530 BST Legendaries, timeline is saved and can be merged, but almost all the other Fakemon Legendaries die

I can answer any questions for people.

Now, for this hack. Chaomega is about to merge the timelines but wants to make sure everything is okay first. It turns out we're Lati@s (depending on gender) and we need to help him. First we need to visit the grave of Angeallen (Fakemon Legendary). He gives us the option to prepare but there's nothing outside the tower. Also Chaomega is no longer the ???-type, but is now the CHAOS-type.

Talk to Chaomega and he takes you to "Hevah Route." I guess Jagold didn't feel like specifying the routes for the region. Mt. Krystal—location of Angeallen in RR and LoG—is a Flash cave like mentioned.

Dohoho, guys, look how wacky and self-referential this writer Jagold is!

Chaomega lights up the cave and the first thing we see is the sudden void mentioned.

Like I said, the cave is long with dead ends, has a high encounter rate, requires HM use (Chaomega already has the move), no running shoes.

There are trainers in the cave, but Chaomega tells us not to battle them so we don't blow our identity.

At the top of the mountain, Angeallen is nowhere to be found, due to being dead. Chaomega gives backstory on how the dragon gods (three Fakemon Legendaries from RR and Rayquaza) die without a human to reincarnate into, the only real recap information given so far in this hack. Just a tidbit for fun, Angeallen's guardian ran away like a little bitch when he found out it was dying, leaving it to pretty much die alone if you weren't there. Chaomega grabs something and doesn't tell you what it is, and you fly back to the tower making the whole trek a waste. Hey, this is exactly like Rescue Rangers!

Also there's a trainer named Jayson in the tower, no relation to the Jayson player character in RoL. I remember them being in the tower in LoG but I can't actually remember a single thing about them or who their Legendary was. He mentions how he contacted all the dragon guardians from LoG except for Angeallen's guardian Nicolas, whom he couldn't find. Jayson also has a LOVEABLE charm where he calls Chaomega "Chao" to Chao's chagrin. I'm beginning to think Jagold's real name is Jayson, since the name appears several times and this specific one has the kind of "aloof and without a care in the world" personality Jagold gives his self-inserts.

Chaomega gives a speech about how he trusts Nicolas and how friendship and trust are super important and shit. Nicolas literally let Angeallen die out of cowardice, and Jagold gives one of his "oh you KNOW I'm full of shit but it's okay because I know I'm full of shit too!" moments by pointing it out. We prepare to head to Kanto to presumably see Mewtwo.

We go to "Kanto Route," Route 4 specifically, and man does it look like shit. Gravel and shit everywhere. Chaomega notices Cerulean Cave has disappeared and that he can't sense Mewtwo.

Cerulean itself isn't in much better shape. It doesn't resemble Cerulean at all really, and look at the fucking Gym. We decide to separate while he searches for Mewtwo, and I'm told to use human transportation to get to Johto and look for Lugia or Ho-Oh. After Chao leaves, we remember we can fly and transform into our Latios form for the first time in the game, heading to Whirl Islands.

Also literally every route theme, from Hevah to Kanto to Johto, has been this theme used in LoG.

Whirl Islands is a fucking Flash cave maze, similar to its GSC counterpart in the sense that there are four different islands and you have to make sure you don't accidentally head to the other. By miracle I got through it to the bottom with almost no dead ends. Lugia isn't there and we have to leave, like a Rescue Rangers mission. We talk to Jayson and say we're heading to Ilex Forest where Ho-Oh (who's a gril) sleeps, which was a plot point in Rescue Rangers. Jagold really shouldn't have taken so much Rescue Rangers influence.

Ilex Forest looks nothing like it should. In RR you have to go there and it kind of looks like it should if you squint, here it's just a generic forest. Ho-Oh isn't there and neither is Celebi, we head back to the tower. Nothing happened during these treks.

But is there any way to change graphics in a game? Like assigning a style to a region, starting with GB graphics in Kanto and progressing at least to GBC in Johto and GBA in Hoenn.

Sounds good (Crest is the bottom-right region). I can't continue the playthrough until tonight, just giving an update. I did a test run through the start of each region and they really are all the same (but I'll go into detail later), and the regions all barely resemble the original version except Crest. How did Jagold fuck up the two regions he "created," in quotes because half of Gento is just slightly modified Hoenn?

it is really bland. really, really bland, almost too bland to rescue.

you'll need to add a whirling vortex of dark black energy shooting up from the centre of the map, as well as several lapras in blood red robes chanting incantations and cleaving malign runes into the ocean air to hold the portal aloft.

Still have a couple hours to go before I'm able to continue, but while I have a minute I thought it'd be neat to post a Gento comparison to see Jagold's tileset evolution. Here's three shots of the same location in the starting town. First pic is from Reign of Legends, worked on from 2007-2008. Second is from Life of Guardians, developed from 2009-2011 (the lab got destroyed from the RoL protag's rampage). Bottom pic is Broken Timeline, 2013-2014 (for the current beta). I still don't know why everything in BT is filled with rocks.

It honestly isn't that hard, in my opinion as someone who barely knows ASM. When I want to do something, I look at code for something similar and try to imitate it, which usually works.

Okay, took longer than expected to get back. We start in Crest about one city away from where we start in Skyline, and meet our rival Jorex (who appeared in the Skyline beta), who tells us we have to take him to get his starter, and he walks into us to join our "party" JRPG-style and railroads us if we try to go anywhere other than the lab. When we get there, he's disappointed that they don't have a Torchic and leave, and we can choose our starter, Chimchar, Piplup, or palette error Turtwig.

Also, every single region is exactly the same up to this point. Meet a rival one town away from the lab (the rival is based on one of Jagold's earlier games if it's a custom region, or a new OC in Kanto or Johto), go to the lab, meet the professor's assistant because the professor is gone (since you can reuse the assistant sprite without needing to make five professor sprites), get your starter. Gento has the Hoenn starters, and Hevah Unova starters (even though you had Kanto starters in LoG).

So, our starter?

I've lurked these threads for a bit, and I've noticed that there seems to be quantifiable disdain toward Essentials games in general.

What is it that makes games made with this tool undesirable? As someone who is working on an Essentials game, it'd be helpful to hear the criticisms and see what I could potentially do to lighten the prevalence of certain issues.

Got it.

We head back to our sister's house, and meet another Skyline rival, Joseph, who gives us our Pokédex that he got from Gento (if you start in Gento you see him grabbing the Pokédex, by the way, so I guess all these regions are happening concurrently). We talk to our sister, and she gives us our running shoes, and $3,000, and 5 Potions, and 5 Pokéballs. We have to sit through a ton of dialogue that I think is meant to be casual but it's all just a ton of teasing followed by "oh you silly guy you." I think Jagold is actually trying too hard with the dialogue, which is a rarity.

This beta seems to have the same script as Skyline, where every non-boss trainer is optional and you have to go out of your way to talk to them to battle, and they refresh with stronger teams every time you get a badge. If it's like Skyline, it'll be mandatory to fight them every single time if you want to keep up with the level curve.

Also literally every wild Pokémon I've come across has an Oran Berry, what the fuck.

Well one of the reasons people avoid Essentials is probably because, since it's relatively easier to make a fangame with that than ROMhacks, the shitters who don't want to take the time to make their hack quality flock to it. Not to say there aren't people willing to put forth the effort, but look at the shitty edgy tumblr fangames everywhere. Reborn, Rejuvination, Aegis, not that tumblr but Zeta/Omicron, etc., and I can't think of a single notable good Essentials game besides Sage.

I've also never had an Essentials game run at a reasonable speed and framerate on my toaster, again besides Sage, the people who work on Sage have my respect for that. I'm not sure if it's an innate problem where the engine takes up too many resources (and Sage somehow fixed it) or what, but it even affects battles usually when nothing majorly intensive is going on. Really if your game runs fine on toasters you've cleared up what's personally my biggest grievance with the engine.

Interesting, thank you.

I can only hope my game doesn't come across like some of the "edgy" ones do. My focus is on exploration, so the story is relatively simple and, ideally, fitting for a Pokémon game. No ridiculous character deaths or terrorists or whatever nonsense people keep putting in their fan games.

Not quite sure what I can do to prevent excess lag other than by keeping maps clean by removing unused events and such. So far, only one of my beta testers has encountered minor lag, and it was in the designated "big city" map. Keeping larger maps divided into sections is something that I'm going to keep in mind going forward. That may possibly help keep the game running smoothly.

Use Pokemon Essentials. But make 50 to 100 shitty MS Paint monsters all with the same BST. None of them should evolve either.

What would make each monster unique is their moveset and type combination. Each Pokemon learns 10 moves by level up, 20 moves they can learn through TM, and 15 Tutor moves. Don't bother with Chain Breeding or any of that garbage.

Every monster would be viable in battle, so there'd be nothing wrong with no evolutions.

If you want to be a lazy faggot, you can always reuse the same monster templates, just recolor them and call them new monsters.

The disassembly is partially commented, some parts are explained in detail, others you have to pierce together.

There's an IRC chat specific to the Gen 1 and 2 disassembly, kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/?#pret and there are a lot of ASM guides online. The Game Boy specifically uses Z80 ASM (as opposed to, say, the NES, which uses 6502 ASM) if you want to look up guides specifically for the type you'd be using.

A lot of the basic stuff is straightforward to figure out though. I went through trying to understand basic things (made a couple custom moves, backported a future Gen Pokémon, etc.) and I found it easy to just imitate the existing code to get what I want. You really only need to understand ASM if you want to do shit like fuck with the engine.

So knowledge of ASM isn't really necessary unless you wanted to, for example, implement Abilities or in-battle form changes or something else that you can't really just do from trial and error or through modifying existing routines?

It definitely looks less intimidating now at least. Thanks, anon.
