Progress is progress. I've slowed down a little to avoid burnout. but I'm still pushing forward little by little.

These are the trainers I still need to write dialog for and properly code in their battle triggers/ribbon prize. Once that is done, I'll go back and start giving their teams move sets and EVs. (don't ask why I didn't already give them that, it's a long story)

>>58114558
And these are all the trainers who I've already fully coded and given dialog.

My goal is still to have build 3 done by the end of the year.

This might be an unpopular opinion but to me it seems that most romhackers don't know about balance or don't have second opinions.
If you are good at editing roms, that doesn't means you are creative. If you are creative, that doesn't means you know about balance. If you know about balance, that doesn't means you can edit roms or be creative.

I wish people were more collaborative. I have seen many romhacks that have so many flaws.

Been gone from these threads awhile.
When I was last here we were all talking about Fools Gold

What's the new latest and greatest romhack to grace these threads

>>58114595
>What's the new latest and greatest romhack to grace these threads
mine (unreleased)

>>58114572
Collaborating is hard. It's not helped by people trying to monetize their contributions. Unless you're a streamer with money to throw at people, you're gonna have a tough time recruiting people who want to work with you. And the bigger the team gets, the more likely it is that progress will stall because group meetings turn into social hours or someone just doesn't have the time/interest in working anymore. There's also creative disputes or other social drama which can make someone so upset they quit, or worse, pull all of their contributions from the project, thereby drawing progress backwards. The fact is you're more likely to finish a game if you solo dev it even though it takes more work.

>>58114648
That is also true. It's such a shame that it is so tough to work in a team, because multiple intelligences exist, and a solo dev might lack the qualities needed to ensure balanced gameplay or an imaginative world.

Despite its juvenile humour and stupid designs, some of the people who helped with Pokémon Clover truly know what made some Pokémon games charming. I wish we could see more of that.

I guess the best way would be to have the solo dev ask for constant feedback from experienced testers. As well as people who can prove their qualities as such to provide said feedback. And preface it with the artistic vision of the solo dev being first-and-foremost.

So many hacks are almost good but fall flat. Or perhaps this is just me and my biases? It could very well be that too. I am not immune to biases.

i want to play a romhack of ruby/sapphire that simply updated to gen 9. phys/spec split, fairy, etc. any idea which one?

>>58114665
Clover was such a great experience.
Not all of the humor lands but I agree with this that it seems like the developers knew what made the games charming

>>58114648
working with other people does have its advantages; it's easier to get motivated and establish deadlines that you'll actually be committed to, but also, as someone who wants to make a romhack too, i'd say to work mostly alone and most of all do whatever the fuck you like desu. of course, that's not to say you can't ask other people for advice or take feedback, but by not allowing your project to be bound to anyone other than yourself, you'd avoid possible disputes and drama and i feel like your wishes and preferences wouldn't be diluted to the point you lost sight of them

>>58114701
I think that if they had dropped the juvenile humour entirely and just made a normal Pokémon game, it would be one of the best ones ever. I am not being hyperbolic here.

It just comes to show that raw talent exists. Someone unassuming might have the right ideas in their head all along, but will never be able to make them real. Meanwhile, those who can craft a working experience might not have the best ideas or executions by themselves.

>>58114713
You avoid drama, but also prevent your project's quality from growing.
I for one think that we are all adults. If someone started a project and drew sharp lines of what is and is not acceptable, it would probably go really far.

>>58114732
>I think that if they had dropped the juvenile humour entirely and just made a normal Pokémon game, it would be one of the best ones ever
Sage was /vp/'s attempt at making a "sincere" Pokemon game. Clover was the offshoot that got finished only because people weren't taking it seriously.

>>58114732
>You avoid drama, but also prevent your project's quality from growing.
i get what you mean, but honestly, i feel like it's kind of a coin flip. a lot of projects had to be put down especially because of internal disputes and similar issues. my point is, working with other people doesn't necessarily mean the project will grow; it can have the opposite effect. it depends on the amount of people involved, on the people themselves, on yourself, your ability to lead and manage, etc. again, i think both situations each have their pros and cons.

>>58114780
I think that being an anonymous imageboard also influenced the "sincere" game not being as popular somehow. It was a matter of circumstance.
>>58114797
Let's admit that a lot of Pokémon fanatics are manchildren. Unable to cope with different ideas and conflicts. And "drama" spurts.
It takes a strong leadership to nail in the point that we have to act like adults.

>>58114803
>Let's admit that a lot of Pokémon fanatics are manchildren. Unable to cope with different ideas and conflicts. And "drama" spurts.
when i said "a lot of projects had to be put down especially because of internal disputes and similar issues", i meant video games as a whole, not pokemon romhacks, but sure i'm not gonna deny that this fandom is fucked lol

I will always find it hilarious how bad zoomies and newfags (same thing) get offended and filtered by Clover, it's the purest essence of the glorious autism that was the old days of 4chan and the internet, I had a blast seeing and remembering a lot of the site's history, not every joke lands, but that's not the point. It's a celebration of years of history from this autistic shithole we're in, if you don't like it, it's a very good sign you shouldn't be on 4chan to begin with.

>>58114813
Oh yeah, I am exclusively talking about Pokémon romhacks here! I don't think I have the necessary credentials to talk about anything else.
>>58114823
I didn't say it was offensive. I just said it isn't funny, and that it is held back by its theme and not the gameplay, which is very good.

>>58114572
A large number of modern rom hacks have their source available, so they're not unfixable.

>>58114935
True but I think that is a little bit in bad spirit.
It's like "I am taking the hard work you made, and just making some changes". I would rather have the creator realise such flaws and either take somebody's feedback or making the changes themselves.

I really wished the fangame scene had a more of a communal spirit when it came to developing features and such for games, I've lost count how many troons tried monopolyzing their shit even though the codding or sprites they're using aren't even theirs, it gets even worse when said troons start trying to make a buck out of their projects and even bully other fangame makers or modders via shitcord by shutting them down everywhere for copying a fucking stray bit of codding or a single sprite from their game, the worst example of this would be the faggots behind Rejuvenation.
It's fucking maddening just how many romhackers and fangame devs hang around the mental assylum is that reborn's discord.

>>58114803
MEANWHILE CLOVER DEVS ALL GET ALONG WITH EACH OTHER AS WE CHUG ALONG ON FINISHING 2.0 LIKE HARD WORKING ADULTS

>>58115106
>>58115155
I feel like airing such things to the overall "outside" community would be so productive.
A wake-up call for that kind of people: "how come the scary racists don't have drama, but we do? Are we being too immature?"

Pokémon is shit. We all know that it is up to us to fix it. We should all be working as a team, as a community. But too many autistic people have had their adult growth stunted.

>>58115155
too bad it'll never be a good game :/

>>58115155
can you just become a tripfag

>>58115167
CLOVER IS UNIRONICALLY A FAR MORE ACCEPTING AND LAIDBACK COMMUNITY THAN THE VAST MAJORITY OF THOSE PLACES

>>58115215
I THINK WE BOTH ALREADY KNOW THAT'S NOT TRUE :^)

I want Emerald but I want the following edits
>player can use Ubers in the Battle Frontier
>some opponents in the Battle Frontier have Ubers (not many but some. Therefore need to create a few variants of those mons and assign them to specific trainer classes?)
>Battle Tower battles to be changed to 6v6 (both Doubles and Singles)
I want the repeat items clause to stay, and for Soul Dew to still do nothing or be outright banned.

- Does such a thing exist?
- If not, is such a thing in the works by anyone?
- If not, is anyone here interested in creating it?
- If not (I'm guessing this is it), how can I go about making this? I don't know anything about programming, I have never coded a thing in my life, not even a basic "Hello World!" html page :|

for fucks sake.

>>58115490
Thank you! I'm the one who posted that archived thread last year. I'm pretty sure I saved the webpage for future reference but I have no idea where, I can't find it on my NAS or some pen drives.

I really want this so I'm going to make this a goal to accomplish by the end of the year.

To follow up on the last post in that thread, I think I definitely want the 680 BST mons to be rarer than the 600 BST mons. I'm thinking maybe 4 different iterations for Metwo, Lugia, Ho-oh, Kyorgre, Groudon, Rayquaza (don't want it to be less than that because then they would be too predictable), and 6 iterations for Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, and Deoxys.

First step is I will design those.
Second step will be to set up a separate computer to install that stuff on. I'm not familiar with programming tools and am super paranoid about keeping my main computer safe (I do internet banking) so I will probably use an old laptop.

WSL seems to mind-boggling for me. I think if I want to do with Linux route I'll just install Ubuntu on that laptop natively.
Which do you think is easier to a n00b to work through? Native Windows options (msys2 or cygwin), or the native Linux (Ubuntu) route?

>>58115617
>Second step will be to set up a separate computer to install that stuff on
I can't imagine how you could get malware from any of these tools but you do you
>WSL seems to mind-boggling for me
It just requires following a step by step tutorial like all the other environments
>Which do you think is easier to a n00b to work through?
Probably WSL but if you're comfortable with installing Linux natively there isn't much of a difference

>>58103393
I recall them doing one of their Q&A or presentation things in their Discord and mentioning that by the time they get to v4.0 they'll need to move away from GBA hacking to something else pike Essentials, seems like something they're already anticipating. I hope they ride it until the wheels fall off because I'd rather not use Essentials desu.

As an aside, I revently found the "commujity-new-forms-event" channel, where people upload their ideas and concept arts. You can use a tag and filter by "approved" too, looks like all of these -- in picrel -- and more may be coming in future versions.

>58104121
I feel the same way. They're planning to add a "Hell Mode" difficulty in the future, and With the permanent-mega mode you can have up to 6 megas on your team, apparently they can hold actual items too. I was thinking that when Hell Mode drops it might make perma-megas a bit more fair, maybe switch to that mode post-Norman/Mega Ring at least.

>58104302
Yeah Mega Tyrantrum is looking by far the most half-baked, apparently the colouring and abilities aren't even decided yet, much less an actual sprite, so I'd take it with a grain and look at is as a WIP.

>58106101
Which ones bother you?

If it's an old laptop, backup your progress to the internet maybe with git, that way you don't ever lose anything. You can use github or gitlab.

>>58114563
To help avoid burn out, I'm also working on side things that may or may not be in the next build. I have a over world for Adventure Emerald, but the only sprite for battle I could find was the crustiest .JPEG there is. So I'm going to remake it one pixel at a time, and partially credit myself for this stupid amount of work (yes, the real artist is being credited, just with an *).

So I'm helping with someone on their Japan-based region and they entrusted me with starter concepts. I've suggested a yokai motif. Here's what I have in mind:
Kamaitachi weasel (Grass/Flying fast mixed attacker)
Oni ox (Fire/Ground slow, but powerful physical attacker)
Kappa softshell turtle (Water/Fighting slow, but bulky special attacker)
How do these sound?

>>58116256
dude just use one of the 5 billion starters you've designed already. I don't care if this is for a new project of yours that will go nowhere, we're not going through this again. at this point I'm convinced your "projects" are just an excuse to design starters. calling it a different project is meaningless when you're just doing the same thing and have nothing to show except endless starter concepts.

>>58116276
>>58116267
It's not for my project, I just said it's for someone else.

>>58115231
DONE
WHAT'S NEXT?

>>58116279
also didn't you say in another thread that the project isn't a romhack or a fangame? so why are you posting it here?

>>58115155
let me see, making a shoddy game with stolen assets like dysfunctional adults does not lead anywhere
>>58115252
and no, your sekrit klub thinking stealing from other games (including official ones) can get away with it XD

I'm looking for a pretty vanilla hack for Platinum that's akin to Emerald's Complete Hoenn Dex hack, is the latest "Refined Platinum" version good?

What limitations are they running into?

>>58116256
This isn’t working. I’ll be back when I actually finish my main project’s demo which is about 95% done.

>>58117262
David, I have a genuine question for you. Why do you insist on coming back here to talk about your "projects" when you know for a fact you're gonna get stoned and told to fuck off each time? What's the point? Unless your only purpose is ragebaiting, it just seems counterproductive more than anything

>>58117286
Because, there aren’t very many places for me to promote them.

>>58117347

>>58117351
I got banned from there because of that video I’ve made.

>>58117347
>Reddit
>Eevee Expo
>Xitter
>Youtube
You'll most likely be way more well-received in the first two places already (unless you already have a "record" there? in that case, better question yourself) and I'm sure you're well-aware of it. So, you're indeed just ragebaiting, right?

>>58117356
I got banned from Eevee Expo for that video and the moderators of r/PokemonRMXP kept removing my posts.

>>58117355
>>58117363
What video?

I feel like David. I'm practically done with a project, but now I get the urge to do a bunch of final passes over text, graphics, stats, QOL, etc.

>>58117669
I'm currently stuck in the final beta testing phase and it's driving me crazy how much little shit keeps going wrong. The end of a romhack really is 90% of the work.

>>58117821
I'm at the point where I'm confident there are no more errors remaining. This is just stuff to keep me busy because I'm not ready to let go.

>>58117363
kek

>>58117854
Tbh I'm kinda the opposite right now. I've been working on this for so long that I just want to get it done and put it behind me so I can move on with my life. Still want to do a good job of course, but that's what's been bogging me down lately.
>final passes over text, graphics, stats, QOL, etc.
Probably a good idea to do this just to make sure you're satisfied with everything.

Bump? >>58116798

>>58115979
What do you have against Essentials?

Anyone have a tool or something that can strip out all the unneeded junk data and colors and shit from a png, or maybe an editor that leaves them unchanged? Any time I edit a crystal sprite it balloons up in size once I save it which I'm assuming is additional color depth or something being added in.

>>58117246
>What limitations are they running into?
I don't know the details, but I assume they would be space related.

ROWE has generic cries in the game and you need to use a special MGBA-exclusive fork of the romhack if you want all of the cries back + a bunch of anime style cries iirc.

I heard that Blazing Emerald removed the option of playing as May because to make more room for other stuff, then it became nearly impossible to add her back.

I also heard Radical Red and Unbound were pushing into the boundaries of what the gane could handle.

Lastly I heard that in Pokemon Elysium you need two different roms or some shit like that because the game is so big, haven't looked into that one yet though.

Seems like a recurring issue in a lot of romhacks. If all of these projects are hitting that threshold then I imagine Elite Redux is too, and they're still planning to add a lot to the game as well.

>>58119566
Idk, something about the way they play and feel, just feels a bit off? I'm not strictly against Essentials stuff though. To be fair I only played Insurgence in the past, and although I liked the region, delta forms (OG regionals), and some of the plot twists it was just hard to play, idk if it's the movement or the battle animations or what. I think the freedom Essentials gives leads to a lot of amazing projects though, the scope of Reborn and stuff always impressed me. Those games are pretty old now so maybe the newer ones are different.

Asides from that, ever since ny laptop shit the bed on me I've been emulating all my romhacks on my phone and I've really gotten used to it to the point that I don't wanna go back to playing on a laptop. Gone from My Boy to PizzaBoy to Retroarch with the MGBA core and some nice filters too.

I heard there's some mobile emulators for Essentials so I might look into and try that stuff soon and give that medium another chance since I never finished Insurgence or Reborn either.

>>58119917
>Any time I edit a crystal sprite it balloons up in size once I save it which I'm assuming is additional color depth or something being added in.
Use pnggauntlet (not multithreaded so it's slow on big file resolutions) or use imagemagick with a script

>>58119969
>I heard that Blazing Emerald removed the option of playing as May because to make more room for other stuff, then it became nearly impossible to add her back.
May doesn't take that much rom space so that's almost certainly not the actual reason for her removal. The blazing emerald v1.6 rom also uses only around 2/3 of the available space.

>Lastly I heard that in Pokemon Elysium you need two different roms or some shit like that because the game is so big, haven't looked into that one yet though.
That was due to dev incompetence instead of rom size. pic related.

>>58119917
For pret projects you would need 2-bit depth images. Paint.NET is able to save 2-bit PNG, but I've had problems with that method. Try ImageMagick.

Wrong thread.

>>58119566
the engine is shit. every rpgmaker game plays like molasses, an emulated gba is much smoother and faster. also, a lot of essentials games have terrible keybinding options, some don't even let you remap keys, and i assume this is due to laziness on the devs' part but maybe essentials makes it hard to remap, idk

Just about to beat Elite 4 in my Crystal Advance playthrough and looking for another cool hack. Should I try Seaglass? Never played Emerald before. Also are there any cool rom hacks that have Nuzlocke built into them?

>>58123425
>Never played Emerald before
Just play Emerald

>>58122271
Nice job, gonna have to play through this again. I didn't get a chance to use my nigga Octank last time.

>>58123541
There's an NPC trade for a Remoraid that isn't too far into the game.

>>58121797
I've gone over everything I can find online, and yeah, I don't think Hex Maniac can do anything about egg moves. That's strange.

Am I a shitter or is Pokémon Odyssey really a high difficulty hack? Playing on Hard of course

I've been going at the first Captain, Karin, for nearly 2 hours. Leveled up all my mons to the level cap, did the wonder trade to get additional mons, remembered moves, etc..
Feels like a puzzle boss that I'm not figuring out and holy hell I consider myself smart enough, I don't think any of my friends would figure this one out.

Battle starts with Lileep and Omuran Wigglytuff, both godlike tanks that also hit hard. Nearly every mon up to this point has a weakness to ground so Wiggly will just bulldoze your attempts at stalling with poison and electric mons, which are also a majority of the ones available and the ones you'd consider for status moves. Don't try flying mons either, Lileep spams ancient rock and hits like a bitch even after multiple Growls (the times I've tried that). Especially if you try the flying/electric Fearow. There's also Onix and Sanshrew which you might attempt to stack Defense with, but both die to Mega Absorb and Bulldoze.
Gotta poison both because nothing does enough damage to beat them in a fair brawl. Then survive until they die. By that point bitch brings out a fast Scyther supported by Volbeat / Illumise with new boosting dance moves.

I still managed to almost win 1 round, only one mon eft at half hp, but this feels harder than Drayano's hacks and I have every mon caught and leveled so far yet I can't put together a winning team.

>>58124314
And really my attempts so far rely on rng and resetting, even if I had won it'd be pure dumb luck (I was abusing smoke screen and paralysis rng trying to kill Lileep before she sucked my Quilava dry)

WAIT WHAT THE FUCK, You can get a level 18 Nidoking / Nidoqueen by using the moon stones so early. This might tip the scales in my favor.

>>58114141 (OP)
im playing Weird Type Fun. They made Stunky a perfume so I had to have one.

Say you had a vanilla FireRed ROM and the sole change you want to make is adding Mew. It has a beta unused sprite. Realistically, where would be the best place to put it?

Pokémon Mansion? Cerulean Cave?

>>58124472
Anything but under the truck is wrong.

Most stacked team ever for a 1st gym, having to abuse endgame moves to win was crazy

>>58120759
From reading the posts in their Discord by searching "May removed" it looks like it specifically had to do with sprite space, and allocating the data for other stuff. Not sure if that makes a difference.

>Elysium
I see, thanks for posting that. Have you played it?

>>58122271
Planning to advertise the full release anywhere else? I think it's a good time.

Is there any reason of why no one has made a "sourceport" of the Pokemon Games? You know, like Mario 64. I tought we've had full decomps for years

>>58124847
Several reasons.
First and foremost, that's the fastest ticket to getting Pokemon's lawyers on your ass and ruining everything in a scorched earth scenario.
Secondly it's not viewed as a desirable thing because the most commonly modified Pokemon games are 2D, and thus wouldn't be able to immediately benefit from all the meme novelties of a PC port.
Thirdly, Essentials exists, so it might not be seen as "necessary" since if a romhack ever reaches its utmost hardware limits, they can just push the envelope into Essentials instead.

>>58117286
>What's the point? Unless your only purpose is ragebaiting
that is the point. from his own mouth.

Guys, is there a single good vanilla+ Platinum hack out there that DOESN'T add extraneous bs?

I thought "PlatinumQOL" would've been perfect, but it replaces all of the music with remixes and doesnt mention that ANYwhere, and even before the hack was abandoned the dev refused to include a toggle "because it'd be too much work". Yeah, because adding in music remixes when nobody asked wasn't...
"Refined Platinum" seemed like the next best option, but the autist making it wrote a bunch of fanfic in the postgame, and when I asked, he said it'd be too much work to take it all out for the alternate/purist version.

What is going on here? Both these hacks already do the bare minimum that I'd want, yet they both feel compelled to shove in stuff I don't want, and don't give me the options to disable them.

there's nothing wrong with that, in fact it's normal. David's problem is that he was constantly restarting stuff before making any progress. you have to be able to say "ok, this is good enough for now, I will keep working and come back to this later" then after you make some progress you can come back with a fresh set of eyes and reiterate your work. the problem is when you get stuck spinning your wheels unable to make a decision and never move forward.

>>58125099
6/6, just like you anon :)

>>58124921
>I thought "PlatinumQOL" would've been perfect, but it replaces all of the music with remixes and doesnt mention that ANYwhere
In DS games all the music is usually in a file called sound_data.sdat, you could probably just replace it with the original to undo the music changes.

>What is going on here? Both these hacks already do the bare minimum that I'd want, yet they both feel compelled to shove in stuff I don't want, and don't give me the options to disable them.
The hacks contain whatever their creators wanted them to contain. Your desired set of features is similar to what the creators wanted but not the same, which is to be expected since there's an a near infinite amount of feature combinations. It would be unlikely for your desired features to match the developer's exactly unless the hack only has a few features.

As for the option to disable changes. Implementing something like that is often harder than making the change itself, and it would take a lot of work to make everything configurable. You're unlikely to to see such options unless the developer's vision includes extensive configurability.

>>58124847
It has actually been done: https://github.com/Kurausukun/pokeemerald/tree/pc_port
but because of the lack of need and desire for a pc port there's little interest in developing it and the port is far from perfect.

This is all I want

>>58114141 (OP)
Last time I made a Pokemon Essentials fangame it took 3 years and the result was a bloated mess nobody played because it lacked an original region with gen 5 graphics and 80 hours of original content.

Sometimes I feel the urge to have another go. To start fresh and make something smaller and tighter. But I am unsure if it is worth it.

What do you think?

I'm lore dumping on you about this faggot, so prepare yourself.

David made a shitty GoAnimate video of a skinhead father raping his daughter because of an argument over TV or something. It's called "Childish Dad Diddles Emma", I think. I saw it a while ago and I still don't understand if it was supposed to be funny or anything, it just seems depraved.

He gets outed for making the video on every community he tries to worm his way into, and gets banned for basically making the world's worst child incest rape cartoon. It's fair, because no one wants someone around who spends hours of their time purposely crafting something like that. On /vp/, however, there's no way to get rid of him, so he keeps coming back like a boomerang of pure desperation who wants to force people to interact with him.

There are some wannabe Kiwifarmers trying to make him a full-on lulcow, but it's so forced, they're just as pathetic as the guy they're trolling.

I have not learned all of this on purpose, I just like playing romhacks and like to come here to see what others can make even though I cannot. Instead, I see this faggot and have all this shit crammed into my head against my will.

TL;DR - He made a cartoon of a dad raping his daughter.

>Start new hack

the concept of nonbinary folk is mostly just pushback toward big chunks of society being obsessed with gender stereotypes and how a man or woman is 'supposed' to look or act.
so it's essentially people going 'if I'm expected to act like one or the other I'll just choose neither' and people that consider themselves nonbinary males are just the ones in that group that lean more toward masculinity.

and no, I'm not one of them for those of you that want to start screeching at me for trying to understand the logic behind other peoples' ideologies instead of blindly screaming over them.

>>58126401
What hack even is this?

>>58128281
Based. Hope you enjoy the Agate Raid.

>>58123367
this is only an issue with games that use older essentials engines and it's tied to them deciding to encrypt the files (script files, music and graphics) instead of having them in sideloaded folders like more modern ones, or maps with absurd numbers of events in them instead of being split into multiple areas
stuff like reborn/deso/rejuv or ashen frost that were made after reborn E16 don't have any lag problems

>>58119969
You're thinking of JoiPlay. It has some issues with certain animated overworld sprites but it otherwise works perfectly fine.

don't take this as an attack, cause I'm genuinely just trying to understand as well. but what I don't get, is that to me all of this just feels like it's AFFIRMING those gender stereotypes. they're basically saying, I don't fit the stereotypes, therefore I am not a man or woman, which means genders ARE defined by those stereotypes. or in the case of a transgender person, they're saying they fit the stereotypes of a woman, therefore they ARE a woman. it all feels so backwards to me as somebody who was raised to believe that you DON'T need to conform to the stereotypes to be a man or a woman. I idolized people like David Bowie and Prince, who said fuck the stereotypes, they will act and dress however they want even if it flies in the face of conventional gender roles, but they were still unquestionably men. that felt really punk rock to me. they were taking the rules of society and tearing them up and saying you don't have to play by them. but the people you're describing, seem to still be playing within the rules, they're just looking for loopholes. I don't know. it just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

Im trying to randomize a DSi enchanced White2 rom to play on a 3ds with tiwilightmenu++, but the thing keeps not working and its driving me up the wall.
First the AP kicks in and the game freezes. Then i AP patch a clean rom and randomize it later, but that fucks up the dsi enchancements. Then i use TinkeDSi to fix the bins and header but now the game fucking crashes (ndsbootraps is showing some hexa codes). Also apparently there is a problem with ndsbootstrap that makes it so the AP patches dont work in dsi modes.
Im tripping on every step and cant get the fucking game to just play.
For reference the only random options i pick are full HM compatiblity, random starter (basic mon with 2 stage) and catch rate to lv2.

tl;dr: Anyone played randomized White 2 with ndsbootstrap/Twilightmenu++?. Did you have to move any kind of extra patch/tool to play it?

>>58128504
>to me all of this just feels like it's AFFIRMING those gender stereotypes.
see, the big problem with the system in general is that for every person that is genuinely fine with people with different interests/fashion/behavior expressing themselves in a way that doesn't align to their gender there's at least a dozen other people that will freak out or accuse that person of being something that they aren't. just look on this site at how you can post a picture of a woman with a slightly more pronounced jawline and have swarms of people crying
>TROON TROON TROON!!!!!!
David Bowie ironically took a while to take off precisely because of how unconventional he was, but it's easier for people to warm up to you when you're a celebrity with actual exposure and charisma. a random man walking around in public with a dress and makeup isn't going to illicit that same sort of reaction from others even if he's comfortable with his own identity.

>>58126401
this troon stuff is boring and overdone. give us some /tttt/ brainrot representation for once

>>58128557
this is totally unrelated but i've never played any of gen 4 or gen 5.

i have a copy of black 2. if i just play this and not regular black or white, am i missing anything? the internet seems to suggest no, so i don't get why there's a 2.

>>58130991
You miss out on some worldbuilding.
>i don't get why there's a 2
It's the replacement for a third version and introduces a lot of non gen 5 Pokemon because BW1 only had Unova mons before postgame.

>>58130991
It's a 2 because it's literally a sequel, with new protagonists in an entirely new story and game progression, set two years later, in the same vein as GSC are to RBY

If you don't care about the narrative or character progression, then you won't be missing much by only playing the sequels, since it's largely all additions. The main gameplay differences are 150ish older mons added to the previously Unova-only dex, several new areas with new gyms, features, etc., and a post-game battle facility featuring just about every major character from all mainline games up to that point

(L)uigimon is real.

finished my tree frog grass stater line, grass/psychic

Are there any SV rom hacks that make it not shit?

>>58131657
This looks great! Could definitely see myself using it. Wdym by heavy?

>>58131666
Compass looks like an interesting "difficulty hack", and SV+ looked like it has a bunch of QoL features, particularly with stuff like overworld movement and shinies having glowing red eyes to see in the OW. I wish someone would combine the best stuff from both.

So David uploaded his playtest. Let's see if it's as good as he made it out to be.

>>58131790

>>58131817
It will not. Just try it!

>>58131657
I don’t think it really needs the hairstyle, I’d keep the lilypad hat from the stage 1. You could also maybe try a fuschia or light purple color on the stage 2 (or a diff shade of green) to differentiate it a bit rather than having the same colors for all 3 stages. Looks good though, the spritework itself is well-done.

>>58124546
>From reading the posts in their Discord by searching "May removed" it looks like it specifically had to do with sprite space, and allocating the data for other stuff.

The thing is, the 2010s style of SJW activism was less about making androgynous people feel safer/welcomed, and way more about getting normies to kowtow to the dumbest articulable causes.
This is how you get a barrage of forced, ridiculous terms. In the olden days, non-binary women were dykes, and non-binary dudes were queer. Anything more complex than that is BS gibberish invoked only to mindfuck the general population.

Are there any romhacks that support JP language?

coral is basically exactly what i am looking for. any recommendations for completed romhacks like it? peridot?

>>58133180
The two don't have much in common aside from being gen 2 hacks with a new region. Peridot doesn't have nearly the same kind of spectacle or storytelling as Coral.

>>58133217

>>58133232
Prism is pretty good, Reforged is pretty good, BW3 Genesis is a demake/sequel of Unova/BW2 and it's pretty good.

Since I didn't find any Mega Dragonite backsprites I decided to try my hand at drawing it myself, can't quite get the wings right, I really suck with symmetry and haven't drawn properly in nearly a decade by this point, but what do you lads think? The front sprite isn't my work, I found it on deviantart and have been using it as a point of reference for my sketches since it looks pretty good.

>>58134734

Porting over all the stuff I did for Peridot so it can be played more easily in a pvp setting.
I've figured out how to set it up and create a set of formats, but now I'm just trying to figure out how to add new items/moves/Pokemon.

I'm planning on making a difficulty hack for Explorers of Sky at some point with SkyTemple, but first I wanna gather some thoughts and perspectives. Namely, what do you think would be some examples of what difficult, yet fair gameplay in PMD would look like? I'm thinking of potentially removing reviver seeds so I don't have to overtune difficulty to account for just bringing a full inventory's worth into a dungeon, but if I do that then I want to trim down the bullshit unfair difficulty.
Also, what would you guys think of giving the mainline starters an extra ability, rather than just the usual overgrow/blaze/torrent?

While I'm off-topic posting I should add that I was lurking around romhacking.net recently and reminding myself that non-Pokemon romhacks are a thing, this Halloween themed hack of Kirby's Adventure in particular caught my eye.
I hope that Pisces update drops soon, I'm getting withdrawal systems.

The full version of Garbage Gold Deluxe quietly dropped a couple days ago, I don't think anyone outside of IridiumDev's server knows since he hasn't "officially" announced it yet, looks like the most advanced DS hack to date. This is by the same guy who made that video about the age of DS hacking being here btw, looks like he's been hard at work recently.

I'm not good at designing routes so i decided to make something a bit diferent, i guess it's kind of like the battle pike.
Instead of a world you can explore you have a main hub where you select areas to visit like pmd.
The areas you visit consist of "rooms" where different events happen.
So far i made a wild encounter room, a room where you get an item and a room where you battle a trainer.
I edited the video but between the item event and the trainer battle there are 4 wild encounters before each one.
I know it looks really simple but i swear there's stuff going on in the background, like a "streak" system where defeating pokémon increases the chances of finding pokémon with hidden abilities (it also increases shiny odds, but i'm not sure if i'm keeping that).
Anyways i want to know what you guys think about the items that appear later in the webm, basically some pokémon may do something if u don't use a certain object before approaching them (running away, making you drop an item, inflicting status), only certain species can do some actions but you're supposed to get that info after catching them.
When i made this a couple of months ago i thought it was cool and made catching pokémon more engaging, but now i have the feeling that it may fucking suck, so yeah i wanted some feedback :-)

>>58114141 (OP)

>>58156266
Dev said late this year but now they are back in school so it's probably going to take longer than that.

>>58114141 (OP)
what gba emulators have good ui or allow users to apply a custom skin?

>>58152637
Since Lazarus' style looks very similar to Seaglass (if it's not the exact same), does it also have the awful blink that happens in battle at the end of every turn?

>>58156220
LOL

>>58152187
It's cool see such changes to core mechanics in a romhack. Even though I prefer regular routes, I'd be interested in playing your hack for the novelty alone.

I think that the player slowly walking through the scenes could get boring over time so maybe you could make him run or add an option for that.

>>58156900
>romhack
it looks like rpg maker

>>58156911
Looks like pokeemerald-expansion to me. I don't think essential's animations are that accurate to the originals.

Any romhacks that don't give every single trainer max ev/iv? This applies even for stuff like Drayano.
I am tired of having to grind to have a chance to not get outspeed by bullshit.

>>58156820
Odyssey is worse than Unbound, yes.

>>58157110
If that's true shouldnt i play odyssey before unbound? since unbound is better and going to something worse after will feel even worse.

>>58157283
odyssey is much better than troonbound

>>58157417
i heard unbound was the best and odyssey is a new best. what would be a less peak romhack to play before those 2 since It'll be down hill from there?

>>58157509
play snakewood

>>58153301
Clover

That reminds me. Should I play Stygian Snakewood?

>>58158202
no they said good

>>58158565
Still looking for more good recommendations btw

>>58157509
gaia. it's really solid all around and was impressive at the time. probably feels the closest to an official game of any romhack. it does lack anything extraordinary about it that some other hacks achieve.

>>58158268
it's decent but kinda of a buggy mess right now but apparently the dev said there's going to be a new demo later this year so you could wait for that i guess

Has anyone played Quetzal? How does the multiplayer work?

Any pokemon games that feature MATURE themes such as DEATH, SEX and DRUGS?

>>58160291
i whole-heartedly recommend Edge Rising

I want to make some romhack for nintendo ds. where do I start?

>>58160442
check the links in the OP

what are the best polished gba fan games with good visuals (and hopefully not challenging)?

Is there a difference in the type of game on Eevee Expo vs PokéCommunity?

>>58160488
Eevee Expo seems more focused on fangames while PokéCommunity has both fangames and romhacks.

I'm still working on Radical Emerald but I just don't have the time with my job. It's taking forever. I need to recruit.

>>58160581
looks pretty good, what programming language are you using?

>>58156933
if it is a romhack that's seriously impressive

>>58157682
>>58159129
what's an even worse one so I can play that one before those?

>>58160593
It's essentials so Ruby. I've made some external tools in Python though like my updater. I've spent a lot of time adding little bits of polish to essentials instead of even being able to recreate the maps. I'm only up to Rustboro and the only interiors I have done are the Pokecenters and Marts and Littleroot.

>>58160581
>>58160614
What made you choose to remake the entirety of emerald in essentials instead of making a romhack?

>>58160627
It's just way more flexible. It allows me to do things like create an updater and have functional multiplayer with battling and trading. Also the animated battle sprites from gen 5 are my favorite.

>>58152187
This reminds me of a romhack of Emerald as a rogue-like I came across, the name escapes me though

>>58160655
I think the only problem with developing fan games this way is that you have to worry about getting DMCA'd. I guess you have a plan for that. Rom hacks technically let you get away with it because the patch itself isn't illegal.

>>58156282
Pizzaboy Pro let you pick your own skin, the premium version anyways. Still trying to figure out if it's possible on Retroarch.

>>58156340
Straight from the devs mouth.

>>58160599
Maybe Glazed? Probably a disservice to it, but if you don't wanna play Unbound or Gaia yet I recommend it as a first foray. Make sure you play the latest version of it (9.1) and not Blazed Glazed.

is noon finished? it doesnt say anywhere on the site

>>58161783
>Straight from the devs mouth
Nice, thanks, anon. It was a real dealbreaker for me in Seaglass

>>58161819
Frownbros... have we been vindicated?

>>58161889
No problem bro, seems like it bugged a lot of people

Anyone here got banned from r/PokemonRMXP before?

>>58162467
D word...

>>58162467
I got banned for complaining about the mod continuously removing my posts. If I’m actually banned, I would’ve gotten a message and be unable to post stuff.
I swear, Reddit mods are so unforgiving…

>>58161819
No. This was its status a few months ago.

>>58153301
Pokémon Cope and Pokemon Cyber (but that’s largely unfinished as of now) along with other people’s suggestions.

Does anyone know of any ROM hack/fan game that has all the Pokémon with updated moveset? I wanted to test a sceptile with shed tail and other things.

>>58162700
>not pokemon vandash
one job

>>58153326
I've gotten the first badge so far and it's alright, the fact that lack of any battle music aside from the kanto trainer and wild Pokémon music is kinda throwing me off like the gym leader didn't even have the gym leader theme. The fakemons aren't drawn the best but I've found some of them charming.

>>58162700
I'd rather not mess with any incomplete hacks feels like there's no point.

>>58160614
Cool I thought essentials was some rpg maker shit but that looks good. Dunno what I was thinking of. Some shit I downloaded a really long time ago that was a pokemon engine for rpg maker.

>>58163116
Wait i looked it up and it is rpg maker. What the fuck, every rpg maker game I've ever played looked way shittier and janky.

Peridot bros, Bulbasaur, Charmander or Squirtle?

>>58163366
Squirtle so you can Fire Punch stuff.
