Oh hey, first /heg/ I saw since making this.

http://pastebin.com/b3GdCqUd

The song is still a bit empty without the vocals but it's not something that can be helped on Game Boy. Hopefully Showderp is proud.

Also reposting this from last /heg/ thread since the thread 404'd not too long after posting it.

Now I'm done with all the requests I had for real. Taking any suggestions for songs you want to hear in Crystal's engine, though I won't do anything too percussion-heavy or too harmonic (listen to my attempts at the Kalos Gym Leader theme and Laverre City respectively to see why, though I'm still willing to try more Kalos in the future), and I won't do any Sinnoh music because there's already someone else specializing in covering Sinnoh music in Crystal.

I want to see Shadow Pokémon in a hack. Like, as an actual mechanic, where the hacker adds a "purification" value and anything above 0 gives you a Shadow Pokémon with all the side effects Colosseum gave to it, Snag Balls that only work on Shadow Pokémon, etc. not just adding a Fakemon Shadow Lugia or something dumb like that.

Every time you start the game you get a black and white retelling of your last few events. Very useful for when you haven't played in a while. Also you can use your VS seeker to find people around you who want a rematch.

Wait a minute... I just described FLRG. I love that game so much.

I just wish it had access to all 386 pokemon without trading or events, breeding similar to that of Emerald, and no item limit. Put it all in a cartridge and I don't need anything else.

I might give that a try. I didn't know it had so many options. I thought you just made every single variable in the game random. I didn't know you could pick something so specific.

Nice.

If you have a new map (and I assume a new script with new events, unless you put FRLG's events over a new map for some reason) and you have new Pokémon, how is that not an entirely new game? What would you have in mind that wouldn't be a "rehash" to you?

Actual new gameplay mechanics that set it apart from everything else
You know, kind of like how XY wasn't literally just BW with a rearranged map and some new sprites

But I guess that's out of scope for 99% of romhackers

Get some of those tiles that make you fly across and you can't change your direction. Then make it one continuous sequence straight to the gym leader where the players can't go anywhere. Pretty much on auto. Then set a couple of student trainers on the way so the player has to battle one after the other.

If it's an early gym don't make it too hard. Maybe four or five student trainers with one pokemon each. If it's a later gym you can ramp it up. You can and should warn players at the start that they will face a bunch of trainers and the leader with no chance to go back.

It wouldn't be really a puzzle but it would be fun.

Quoted By:

In the rom hack version of my project, I was writing a battle theme for the elite four and managed to import two versions of it along with a remix. Now I want to do a final higher-quality cut for this platform.
I wanted to do something new, so I tried being as unique with the time signature and chord progressions as possible.
It starts in 4/4, transitions to 7/8, then into 3/4.
Because of this, I'm having a hard time finding similar songs online for reference.
I know this isn't /mu/, but does anyone have any ideas on where I'd find reference material for Drum and Bass fills at 180 bpm?

Right? Holy fuck, how do people even make tilesets? My lack of artistic talent has held me back in nearly everything I've tried, and romhacking is no different. I expected it to be, spriting is for the people with no drawing ability, but I still can't get it.
