Let's fix that. Here's another WIP of Humilau.

https://soundcloud.com/mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm-1/humilau-city-gbc-8-bit-wip-2

I like what I did with the main melody but everything else still doesn't really click for me, I don't feel I've gotten the balance right due to all the missing layers of the original song. Any criticism, suggestions?

No it wasn't. It allows people to actually make games instead of fumbling around with editing the tiniest thing just to have a result that's yet another shitty looking GSC or FRLG hack.

I'm working on some table editing tools for gen IV (items, moves, trainers, etc; nothing graphics related), because most of the current ones aren't very good. Any suggestions/feature requests? (Does anyone care about editing contest stats?) So far I have support for expanded types and moves, autofill/search functions, and a lot of extra editable things that aren't in any current tools.

They're just uncompressed bit maps, aren't they? It's probably the exact same file across all the gen IV games, the d/p method should be fine.

Who uses seasons or gen 5 tiles in their project?
You can set invisible tiles with Klein's Season script to activate on certain seasons. Each tileset can also take on individual properties like crunching leaves or deep snow.

Essentials is the Unity of Pokemon game creation.
It's a great tool when used by the right people. The only people who have a problem with it are those who spent ages learning a dead coding language who are now salty that game devving is as easy as drag n drop.

Are GSC hacks even that prominent? I'm pretty sure there are more Gen 1 hacks than Gen 2 hacks.

And every Essentials games copies either Gen 3 or Gen 5 graphics anyway, and it seems the heaviest gameplay changes to the battle system are shit like "hey there's this new type of weather in Gym Leader battles that nerfs all of the Gym type's weaknesses and buffs all the best moves of that type and the Gym Leader happens to have those moves" like Reborn.

Max seems like a good guy but he seems to actually be heavily fucking with the engine instead of just "drag n drop." Anything else is just as derivative as those hacks you describe, just in a worse engine.

Are you complaining more than usual because of the OP of this thread?

The best thing about a Sinnoh demake is like half the soundtrack, for routes and towns at least, have already been ported to the engine as an independent thing, so we're going to get music for almost everything necessary when a demo comes out, if it comes out.

It was an RBY remake that included Johto pokémon. The story followed most of team rocket's story from both RB/GS, and the player was supposed to encounter either Lugia or Ho-oh at the end of the game.

>>26664441
Mostly. The sprites, music, and scripts weren't all edited, but I finished hex editing all wild encounters, gyms and elite four.
The plot would need revision because, let's face it, 14 year olds aren't great at storylines.

I like it. Humilau is one of my favorite tracks from BW and I feel you've done it justice. With a lil more refinement, it'll sound like it belongs in GSC.

What software did you use to make it?

What is the best of the 3DS hacks? I haven't played Pokemon since XY came out and got bored because they were jusy too easy. Looking to get back to the games but with more challenge and catch variety.

Alternatively if the 3DS ones aren't good I'll go back and play BlazeBlack since I never played the BW games before

I'm glad you like it. Are specifics on what can be refined? I'm almost done porting the song and every criticism helps.

>What software did you use to make it?

It's all done with the disassembly, written in an .asm file and tested by compiling it then hearing it in-game with a music player someone else coded.

There actually are tools to assist with Gen 2 music editing but I've never asked the guy who made those if I can have them since my method works well enough. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghBS9qP6WwE is an example of someone using fancier tools, but even then he's still ultimately putting it in the ROM, just using tools to port MIDI channel sections directly and test it without compiling.

I think it sounds fine as is. Sometimes it's best to not fuck around with a project too much, or else it begins to sound unnatural.

My advice is to sleep on it, then give it a listen and see what could really be better. If you can't find anything, it's probably the best it'll be.
