>>58281798I know that one is in developement but which Digimon romhack is the best?
What are the best finished romhacks that have a completely new Pokédex?
>>58281872Vega, Clover.
>>58281949seconding Vega, there are some duds but it's impressive how many I genuinely like, particularly for a game made in 2011.
>>58281872Do you count everything being a regional variant?
>>58282036The sprite work really sells the designs, some almost look official. That there is an artist who's mastered both the design and pixel art style perfectly
>>58282719it's almost suspicious, when vegas prequels, which feature a lot of the same fakemon, dropped in 2005 basically nobody was operating at this level regarding fakemon.Either japs are just built different or some people with serious experience put it together
Is Vega the infamously difficult one?
>>58281872
>>58283120Your point still stand but Altair/Sirius released in 2008. From what i've heard it was a community project on 2chan, just like Clover here.
>>58283261yes, but you can play the minus versions which put the level scaling more in line with the official games and reduce the ridiculous coverage.
What are the best recently finished hacks + what are the most interesting hacks currently in development? It's hard to sieve through all the shit at pokecommunity.
>>58281867I want to know this too. I have Digimon Crystal, Digimon FireRed, Digimon Emerald, and Digimon Nova Red. Are any of these good/completed?
Does anyone else feel like a lot of rom hacks today are made specifically to appeal to streamers like smallant and pointcrow? I've noticed more hacks seem to be easy to summarize for a YouTube title with the format "Pokemon ______ but X" (pokemon FireRed but they keep evolving, pokemon emerald but there are too many types, etc). As if the hacks are designed to allow for easy click bait. There are a lot of really good high effort hacks that I feel like don't get enough recognition because streamers just want to play through hoenn for the billionth time.
>>58283438I just think there are a lot of shitty hacks in general, or hacks that do the same thing as another hack but slightly different.
>>58283465Yeah there are quite a bit of shitty hacks, but I even can get enjoyment out of some of them. I hated the second Ruby Destiny game Rescue Rangers, but I can atleast tell significantly more effort went into that game than anything I see on yt now
If you’re going to have a rom hack that doesn’t change the main storyline but has a billion new Pokémon in every single route then at least make the Poké Balls cheaper.
When is VP going to make a good hack?
>>58283776
>>58283438>Does anyone else feel like a lot of rom hacks today are made specifically to appeal to streamers like smallant and pointcrow?You’re like the thousandth person to come to this conclusion
>>58283865Hey brother, is it just me or is anyone else tired of romhacks that try to add every pokemon to the game? Anyone else feel this way? I haven't seen anyone else bring this up, anybody else come to the same conclusion? Does anyone agree that having >4 unique encounters on any given route = bloated unplayable encounters tables? Just me? We need more people talking about this guys.
>>58283886Anyone think new regions are better than Kanto or Hoenn again? Am I the only one that thinks difficulty hacks are too common? I never hear anyone talking about this.
Upperoni
>>58283865>>58283886>>58283906I'm just glad I'm not alone on this, thanks for answering my question all of you.
>>58281867I genuinely don't think we have any good digimon romhacks for pokemon. Even the pokemon tcg digimon romhacks. They're all incredibly imbalanced with the enjoyment of the game being secondary to it being cool.
>>58283438yes. it's also that the decomp made basic hacks like that super easy to make, while ambitious hacks still take a lot of effort. so there's a flood of low effort hacks designed to capitalize on trends because any retard can pump them out now
>>58285978That was always the case.
Anyone have a patched (hot fixed) version of fools gold?
>>58285978That makes way too much sense. Thanks for the explanation.
>>58286106Fools Gold v1.3.2 - hotfix 4: https://files.catbox.moe/frvy64.gbcThis ^^^ but it's the "Autumn: Patch: https://files.catbox.moe/2tlqwb.gbc
>>58286106>>58286458Here's the before and after Kantonian-Johto starters spritework.
>>58285983maybe but the decomp makes it even easier because you have a base to work from that already has tons of qol and features included in it
>>58286465Typhlosisters...
>>58283438That's at least partially because those streamers commission custom hacks to be made specifically for their streams/videos. From your examples "there are too many types" was commissioned by alpharad and pokemon evolved was developed by a guy that has made commissioned hacks for smallant, and the hack was given to pointcrow before its public release but I don't know it was commissioned.>>58286483Rombases are not exclusive to the decomps and have existed long before them. I think the main difference the decomp makes for smaller hacks is that it allows people to make changes to the game mechanics which allows for gameplay gimmick hacks.
>>58286458What's the autumn patch again
>>58286465>MfwI picked typhosion because I thought the psychic designs was cool and now it's a fucking walrus
>>58286878lmao
>>58286755Yeah, I know too many types was commissioned, but I still think it's representative of the style of hack we get so frequently. It's just kind of annoying that these much more basic hacks get praised by streamers, meanwhile games with significantly more effort like Uranium or Insurgence get made fun of by pointcrow.
>>58287354At least they get made fun of. There's a lot of hacks out there that are completely ignored.
In my romhack, I'm going to make every legendary reject attempts to catch them mid-battle. Instead, when you KO them, you get their recognition afterwards and they join you.Nobody is thrilled to be throwing fifty ultraballs at a mon. It's timewasting bullshit and it needs to go.
>>58288211I hope they're more like totem or raid battles, then. It's not hard at all to wear down any single Pokemon, legendary or not.
>>58288211not a bad idea but I agree with above that they should be buffed somewhat if you're going to do this. also make sure it's communicated somewhere so people don't waste their time trying to catch them or think it's bugged or something
>>58288211As suggested above, you should make it so that all legendaries and mythicals should battle you with all of their stats multiplied by 6 or 8, as if they're attacking you at full power and requires you to use your full team and strategies to take it down. Also remove masterball from your game to drive home the point.
>>58286848It swaps all the Johto encounters with Sevii (Hoenn).It also makes trees and grass orange for thst nice fall aesthetic.>>58286878Rip, sorry anon. At least it stands out more from the regular Fools Gold Typhlosion now.
we gonna talk about David in this thread or what?
>>58289569
>>58286465>>58289536Thanks I hate it
>>58289536>It swaps all the Johto encounters with Sevii (Hoenn).So I guess Delcattyfag will be able to play Fool's Gold now?
>>58286465and this is why anything related to fakemon is just garbage
>>58281798I made a rebalanced type chart for hacks without the fairy type.I'm going to try to make a simple gen 4 hack.
>>58290098Ehhh, most people aren't fans of changing the type chart. Having to memorize new combos is a pain.
>>58287357I get that they technically get attention that way, but it still feels a little backwards to praise very basic hacks while mocking fan projects with much more effort put into them.
>>58290145The sort of writing in those games deserves to be made fun of.
>>58289645Chonkster.
>>58289645tf is that
>>58289645cute and fat
>>58291759The hope of the universe. The answer to all living things that cry out for peace. The protector of the innocent. The light in the darkness
>>58290145Mocking is an indirect form of praise
>>58292286Not quite, but it does put the name into people's heads.
>>58281717After a few days of thinking and experimenting (I really wish the camera from EBDX was a standalone thing and compatible with Deluxe Battle Kit), I've found a solution that is messy, but I find acceptable. This is going to be the only thing I work on for the next week.
>>58294245cringe, but also soul
what were rom hacks like during the 2000s? were there any good ones? did people just default to playing the vanilla game along with all the casuals?
>>58294724there were some solid hacks back then, some of them still get talked about. Quarts, Shiny Gold, Snakewood, Brown off the top my head were the big ones. they're a little rough by modern standards but yeah there was lots to play.
>>58289569I hate you just as much as I hate him.
Out of all the Pokemon romhacks where you can fuck girls or pokemon, which one(s) have the best sex scenes?
>>58283120A lot of these designs and Japanese names (infographic contains westernized names invented by ppl from Nuzlocke community forum) are shoutouts to Touhou project, which points towards people from Japanese doujin scene. It's the kind of otaku that can make in few months fully playable game and then sell hundred or so copies on an event and never bother to publish it anywhere.
>>58294245>>58294575As opposed to the amount of soulless hacks streamers praise
>>58296595Maybe not a romhack, but pocket campfire (on itch.io is good
>>58296718If you're too afraid to be authentically cringe you're too afraid to be authentic.
>>58296895Exactly, Uranium may be considered authentic cringe to some people and that's fine. Personally I take a game as seriously as it takes itself so I take a game like insurgence seriously while I take clover as a joke like it was meant to be. This is why I don't like snakewood, because of its inconsistent tone.
>>58296945When will hacks start adding in features Game Freak removed like Smeargle having multiple tail colors?
>>58296970I think Polished Crystal does this.
any good rom hacks set on a new region with new pokemon? The notable games pastebin seems to be mostly enhancements and youtube doesn't help much
>>58296895The Purugly has your pipe, anon.
Pokemon: Spirits of the Storm released.A fully-original mini-romhack (~3-8 hrs)https://www.mediafire.com/file/8huotx5bi2fizh1/Spirits.bps/fileDOES NOT INCLUDE BASE EMERALD
>>58297498Super Mariomon.
Not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask, but does anyone know any sprite artists willing to take commissions? I want to play as a specific character in Pokemon Reloaded. Super autistic, yeah, but I really want this for some reason.
Are there any good hacks of the pokemon tcg?
Is it possible to get another MiracleSeed in Fool's Gold somewhere? A sandshrew stole mine and I forgot that stolen items actually get fucking stolen in the early gens
Help me! this was my first time ever playing a ROM hack. I patched Ultra Violet with a Fire Red v1.0 (cleaned) and it worked perfectly until I noticed the girl that wants me to trade a pokemon saying>do you have :Á:Á:Á:Á:Á:Á: ? ill trade for :Á:Á:Á:Á:Á:I didn't worry, i could look up what she was looking for. When I got to route 11 this happened and corrupted the whole save. I have back-ups but I need to talk to this guy to get the item-finder.What did I do wrong? This board was the first place I thought to go to.
>>58299443its fucked after that. I turn into a bird if I go downstairs.
>>58299443>>58299447What emulator are you on?
>>58299443>>58299447it's supposed to be like that
>>58299109tcg generations
>>58299443>>58299447>The worst she can say is no.
>>58299476mGBA. it used to use visualboyadvance but the sound stopped working and its apparently not supported anymore.
this part made me quit. fuck odyssey
started playing vega, is this decent?
>>58299863>a half decent puzzle in a game modeled after EO and you gave up
>>58288211I wanna do something similar for my Red remake.Specifically, I want to make Mewtwo an actual final boss that has to be defeated before capture.
>>58299880yeah I didn't feel like figuring it out
>>58299447I went back with a different number of pokemon discovered and it worked. weird.
>>58299984nope. game still glitches anyway
>>58299990to hell with it, be the fearow
>>58299947what is this, a map for ants?
>>58301806Why do you keep posting that map?
Which custom starter should I pick in Reborn? Leaning towards Trapinch since I've literally never used Flygon for anything
>>58302104
>>58302175I know about the tier list, but I said custom starter. Thinking of Togepi, Trapinch, Magnemite, Ferroseed, or maybe Sandile
>>58281798Are any of these fangames/hacks actually any good?If I had to play one to remind myself how it feels to enjoy a video game what should I play?
>>58299990Honestly, keep the backups, but fuck it, see how far you can go with this. If I had to guess, I'm betting that trade did something and maybe putting in in the box might fix it.
>>58302657No
>>58294724I played snakewood and a cartridge copy of chaos black
>>58299990embrace the new life as a fearow
Any upcoming rom hacks that look promising?
>all these "ANY GOOD ROMHACKS???" postsnothere are no "hidden gems"you have heard of everything goodI'm sorry
>>58304692Yup yup, we peaked with Unbound, nothing better's been made since, and there never will be.
>>58299990this man has transitioned into a bird
hey looking for rom hacks to play, any good ones to recommend?
>>58304911nope
>>58303925Yikes
>>58304911Read the thread.
>>58304623Pokemon Tourmaline comes out next week.
>>58304704>peaked with UnboundUnbound actually adds things other than deviantart sprites and fanfiction tier writing. I mean, it also has those, but the actual feature additions and QOL and actual polish in terms of (new) game mechanics is just unmatched by anyone or anything else in this sphere.Your average autist is just not actually capable of any of that. It's not even a matter of effort, there's no amount of effort that a Chris Chan tier furry can put into his "im making my own pokemon!" romhack that will get anywhere near that. Some people just actually have autism superpowers and frankly 99.9% of the pokemon community does not.
>>58305731>sound typefuck off
>>58304704>just copy everything game freak has already done but with less cohesionI'll pass
>>58305731Yup, it drops on October 3rd, just 6 days away.https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/pok%C3%A9mon-tourmaline-v0-2-2-released-05-21-2025.527425/>>58305995It's actually a pretty balanced type fwiw.
>>58305957what does unbound add makes people fall in love with it so much
>>58305995ah yes, sound type. reminds me of that romhack with giratina
>>58306529A PR team
>>58306529It does nothing particular well but it does nothing particularly wrong. The story is a lot of bullshit babble but in a way that Redditors love. It uses most of the Radical Red expansions which makes it feel just slightly overwhelming enough that it feels grand instead of a random pile of shit grabbed from every generation.In short it's practically tailormade to be babby's first real romhack.
>>58306529It's just peak, well-rounded, content-filled, juicy succulent peak. Play it and yuo will see...
>>58306529It's a completed custom region hack with 8 gyms, which already puts it in the top 1% of all hacks. It beats the rest by having a ton of content and features and being polished.
>>58306613But it does feel like a random pile of shit grabbed from every generation
>>58306529>>58306613>>58306757>>58306787honestly for me the character customization is what sends it over, it's so above and beyond what you'd ever expect out of a rom hack but it's exactly the kind of stuff I really love in gamesother feature stuff like the mining minigame (that's from diamond and pearl right?) and dexnav are also coolhow many gba hacks even have dexnav unironically
explain to me how the fuck quetzal just has full ass multiplayerEXPLAIN HOW IT WORKS
>>58306876
>>58306876its definitely not seamless multiplayer like you would hope, but its there
esta aquí..
>>58305731>>58306119Sell me on this. Is there a list of features/changes somewhere?
>>58307348>not seamless multiplayerI mean yeah it's jank as hell but it's still more than I'd ever think possible for an actual GBA pokemon rom
>>58306876what part are you confused about? even the unmodified games have multiplayer.
>>58307528you can't actually run around the world together though or do gym battles together and you can do that in quetsul
>>58293742PWT: 1st and 3rd gen cups fully running.Battle Tower/Factory: Done, and totally revamped. There is however a 0.35% any battle will cause a crash, but I know the cause and just need the time to locate it in the code. Back sprites: I just need to work on Mega Rayquaza, Pikachu Hats (might not even do it for this build), and TerapagosTrainer challenges: Done I'm dropping it October 16th no matter what state the game is in. I should have it all done by then and will spend the remaining time adding in more stuff. After this update, I'll start removing the stolen assets (so this will be the last build with Snakewood content), and start preparing a build I can post on Pokecommunity without being instantly banned.
where are the Shadows of Almia romhacks?
>>58307533running around with other players in the same map and battling with them is in the normal game, it's just limited to a specific area.
>>58307556No one cares about ranger enough to make hacks of it.
>>58307392The pokecommunity thread explains it, but the tl;dr is it's a sequel to Pokemon Emerald that takes place in a region between Hoenn and Johto. It has Pokemon from gens 1 through 8 and a bunch of new stuff like new regionals, new evolutions, new moves/abilities/items, new status conditions, new type, new weather effects, even new HM moves.
>>58306856>how many gba hacks even have dexnav unironicallymost modern ones do because dexnav is baked into pokeemerald expansion. but yeah, for the time it was groundbreaking.
>>58307576people who hate ranger are weaklings
>>58306876bisexual purple hue gone wild
did anyone tried heargold generations?
>>58302767I eventually got it to work just by trying, I think it was talking to the kid in the background who wanted to trade a hacked pokemon that killed it. I just beat Giovanni and got 9999 coins to buy Porygon. dreams come true.
>>58307842>There is no Mega Evolution, but some Megas have returned as natural evolutions
>>58308466Never post this image again
>>58307842>It has Pokemon from gens 1 through 8 and a bunch of new stuff like new regionals, new evolutions,It also has some spaceworld mons, as well as fakemons pulled from the Smogon CAP tier. Even some new pre-evos of existing mons.>>58308466U mirin'?
>>58307842>Pokemon from gens 1 through 8please tell me it's not all of them. please be 350 max.
>>58308902>having lots of pokemon to choose from is le bad actually
>>58309041yes. regions should at least try to have an identity of their own. kalos was horrendous.
>Like half of the pokemon in Vega require you to not evolve them right away because you loose out on important moves otherwiseBut why?
>>58309149Because fuck you, oldschool rules. Why should those entitled level-up twats get to keep their good move privileges when stone fuckers have to toil in the mines for evolving too early?I hate it too.
>>58309154>Because fuck you, oldschool rules. Except the only major miss for non stone evo mons was like Spore on Breloom. Not stuff like the fire starter feeling like complete ass because you decided to evolve right away.
>>58281798What is the name of this one?
>>58308902It has 386 pokemon. No bloated encounter tables or anything like that. A lot of mons you have to go out of your way to find.
Is there a romhack with most pokemon, most megas, and that doesn't have a bullshit deviantart story (unbound) or a shitty """high difficulty""" (like Radical Red)? Radical Red isn't even hard but sometimes i just want toplay regular pokemon without having a Pokémon use V Create or some shit.I'm fine if the "story" is just straight up Emerald or Firered.
>>58308466And into the trash it goes.
>>58309761yes
>>58309895What don't you like about that?
>>58309909>YetreeHmm. Tectonic called its Abomasnow evolution Conifear. Dunno which of the two I prefer, to be frank.
>halfway through viva las vega>find out about fairy edition exokay, which version of vega is the best?
>>58309761Pokemon Tectonic (not romhack)
>>58310697Its story is more than a little deviantarty, anon. I like it as well but you gotta agree on that.
>>58299878Not bad, its special attack is a little better than its attack so its not that big a loss.
>>58307553would people even care about you "stealing" snakewood's stuff? the game is 15 years old and stygian snakewood and nothing happened to it afaik
>>58310060>ConifearThat's pretty good. This just inspired me to go check out the Tectonic website, I never knew there was another (fan)game that turned all the megas into regular evos, even the Gigantamaxes too. The regional forms all have interesting type combos too with some neat designs. I'll get around to playing this eventually, thx anon. Looks like that another for the Noctowl form tally as well.
>>58302657I really enjoyed quarantine crystal, but kanto wasn't finished last time I played.
So, was emerald redux made by someone with a raging boner for hyper offense? Beside 4 abilities at the same time, feels like radical red
>>58311270how autistic are people about stealing assets for rom hacks? very I imagine?
>>58311553>how autistic are peoplethis is pokemon
Sudowoodo will be getting a Rock/Grass evolution and it has to learn Ancient Power to become one. The Grass-typing comes from the moss it has on its body.
>>58312033retarded. misses the whole point of sudowoodo. go crawl back into your hole david.
>>58311553it's a bit of a grey area though because a rom hack is fundamentally built on stolen assets in the first place, so how much right do you really have to get upset? of course a lot of people still won't want you using their assets, but there's plenty who I doubt would care. a lot of assets are put out free to use for the community as it is.
>>58302657>>58309761To bothPokemom Xenoverse… remake als Ordem at Chaos. Not going to be fully finished for a while, but second demo with up after 4th gym might release soonish. Currently alpha testing it and it’s pretty good and fixed all issues of OG. Also all sprites are animated like in gen 5.Will appreciate yo anons’ input since I wouldn’t have even learned of Xenoverse if it wasn’t for /vp/
Cute but I don't think I can continue using her. She's too slow and frail.
>>58312084Sudowoodo is petrified wood and the evolution from learning Ancient Power reawakens its Grass-type genes. Besides, having moss on its body would come in handy dealing with constant rain.
>>58312084Hey be nice. He could just keep the moss without making it part-Grass and give it Water Absorb.
>>58312320>Hey be nicenot to david.
>>58311270I'm not going to pretend I know anything about who Cutlerine is as a person, so I'm not going to take that risk. I imagine I could git permission if I asked since Cutlerine seems to have given the blessing for the Essentials remake of Snakewood and doesn't care about Snakewood DX, but I'm way too much of a pussy to ask. However, I've made my game easy to modify, and you can easily add it back into later builds yourself along with any other games you want to rip for your own enjoyment. Every build I ever put out will always have the project file so anyone can make changes as they see fit. Even without RPG maker, in theory it could be done by messing with the PBS files and overriding another Pokemon. One of my plans is to at some point mess around with the textures so people can replace the sprites for player characters without making changes to Red or Leaf. >>58311553Honestly, I believe that all fakemon from romhacks/most fangames are fair game. It is bullshit that these game creators can steal assets from Pokemon, but lose their shit when the same is done to them. The only thing holding me back is the fact that I would be an outcast if I did it and distributed it. But that still won't stop me from making a "shadow build" exclusively for myself and close friends. Also, if for some reason there are actually fans of this, there would be nothing I could do if there formed a splinter faction dedicated to stealing, importing, and sharking add-ons to the game they way the infinite Fusion community has. But as funny as that would be, I honestly don't see that even being a possibility. >>58312100>a lot of assets are put out free to use for the community as it is.And I plan to use as much of it as I can once I take out what I stole.
Fuck Reukra
>>58312959Clean team, good shit
>>58308466Every mega for a Single or a two second stage mon should be a permanent evolution. Shitlords like Mawile, Absol and Lopunny really need it
>>58313293>eviolite skarmoryNo!
>>58313303I agree than that and Sableye should either remain as megas or get a big stat tweak thoAlso probably Megas for split lines like Scizor just to not kill Kleavor
>>58313303Pipe down Corviknight! Don't make me call Tinkaton again...
>Tara's gym in VegaWhat the fuck
Are there any RP-y fangame out there? About having a proper role in the Pokémon universe and doing things other than battling? That's probably my dream MMO.
My waifu.
>>58315020Mirage of Tales has you choose a guild. Plenty of games give you sidequests or some kind of crafting to do.
>>58309761Gaia is pretty great... except that it only has pokemon up to gen 6 and not every single one.
>>58315134https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62UzLgdb1GQ
beat viva las vega, you can definitely feel that it was made back in 2011 with some of these design choices. also, mosmero is a tiresome character.
>>58315406They look like cool designs anon
>>58315638Not the mon design. The gameplay.
>>58313293so mega florges is nonexistant

>>58316007>illegal shadow punchWhat?
>>58316014Hitmonchan has never gotten access to shadow punch in any generation, as far as im aware. For some reason, the grimer family is the only non ghost who can get it.
>>58315406This team goes hard, nice taste anon. I think it's about time I finally play Vega myself.

Poor Oddish.
I just started hacking Sword. Why the fuck are overworld Pokemon so fucking hard and annoying to hack? What the fuck is so different? I've tried fucking everything to make them legal even an IC program for PID and EC.Deino will never get legal.
Is there a good HGSS hack that lets me catch more johtomons earlier, but doesn't fill the routes with gen 3-4 stuff like drayano's?
>>58317301you can try HGSS Golden Edition, or RainbowGold.
>>58315219That game is still in developement, right?
>>58281867I want one with a new region, not just existing game but with digimon
>>58309627I don't think it has a name yet, just a proof of concept

>>58320341Why not, like in LGPE, you have to defeat them first before you have a chance to chuck a ball at it (preferably a masterball).Also, berserker gene can only be used by Mewtwo, and you can only find it in an event where you take them to the mansion basement.
>>58316495Based. I think I'll play Altair/Sirius first, those are supposed to be the prequels to Vega with many of the same fakemons. >>58316698Thanks anon. After reading up on both last night I'm leaning towards Fairy Edition EX. It seems more recently updated than Viva Las Vega, has late/post-game mons available earlier like VLV, and it has some very pretty battle visuals and even some new Pokémon apparently borrowed from Procyon and Deneb.
>>58317055I know the perfect nickname for this regional Oddish:
>>58320469Figured that would be harder to implement.I'm also going to give Mewtwo a custom Nature, Berserk, that boosts Attack and Special Attack with no stat cuts.
>>58317055This any good?
>>58321219Berserk is already an ability.
>>58320619Are they fakemon only?
>>58321452Nope, there's still a fair bit of OG mons in the game, I'm planning to use fakemon only myself.https://pokemon-altair-sirius.fandom.com/wiki/Pok%C3%A9dex
>>58321489Damn, that quality is shit on zoom-in. My b.
>>58321249Yeah.
>>58320624
>>58320619I wonder if Fairy Edition nerfed the Demi line because IIRC he gave them Wonderguard as a Dark/Fairy when that's not their actual ability.
>>58321781maybe someday procyon and deneb will get finished/translated so the new designs will be more accessible, love vega fakemon
why do people always put actual bullshit in their game's features list>exp from catching mons>running indoors>new menuwho gives a fuck about this shit
>>58323132People with ADHD. Not that it really matters because they're playing at 500% speed anyway.
That fuckass saffron hack is never coming out, isnt it?
>>58323413>last playable version of the game was scrapped 5 years agoIt's dead
>read about interesting new ROM hack>"You play as femoid"Every single fucking time. Why are ROM hackers such faggots?
>>58323995There's only one romhack that I know of that forces you to play as a girl and even then its more like a standard jrpg party with a core team of 3.
>>58323995it is weird that they don't even give you an option to play as a guy.
>>58324079If the story is specifically written around a girl, for example Odyssey then a male wouldnt make sense.
>>58323995>>58324079pooner spotted
Why are we not allowed to have good pokemon in reborn and rejuvenation at beginning portions of the game
I just discovered fire emblem 8 romhacking and holy shit they really pump those things out, why can't our autists match that pace?
>>58324105give me one good reason why odyssey should be about a girl
I want to try and make my first romhack and I know nothing about coding, am I hopeless?
>>58325026yes
>>58325026no
>>58325026maybe
>>58325143>>58325160>>58325204Thanks anon
>>58325215serious answer, no you are not hopeless, as long as you are willing to put in some effort and learn. with the decomps, the coding you need to do is very simple and there are tons of resources to help. you don't need to know any coding to get started, but you need to not give up when you're confronted with coding. just take it slow, consult resources, be patient, and you will be fine.
>>58324513Play the game and you'd know
>>58325231Okay, promising!Thanks anon
>>58323731what romhack, these look neat
>>58325324Pokemon Infinite Fusion (not romhack)
>>58325341>(not romhack)
>>58325245I love this game’s version of Charizard but that’s probably because I love eastern dragons.
>>58325683These type matchups seem kinda random. The only one that make sense to me is Grass. Why do Light and Ghost beat each other?
>>58325683
why does ayrei keep recommending me unfinished games
are there any gen 3 hacks with a VISIBLE day/night cycle?
>>58323731What the
>>58324384I don't think they're pumping these things out, you've just stumbled across the product of a bunch of communities that was previously unknown to you and now it feels like there's a glut.But I do think that FE romhacking has a more limited design space, which makes for a simpler process of romhacking. Comparing FE to Pokemon, making maps is much less effort, making story is about the same effort, and making sprites is much less effort, due in part to there being massive repositories of free to use sprites. There's also greater separation of each individual chapter being its own thing, which isn't the case with Pokemon. You'd never seen something like a telephone hack where each person in a team makes their own chapter and it's all stitched together in the end.
>>58326365there's literally more than 300 completed romhacks for fe8 on the spreadsheetCOMPLETED pokemon romhacks doesn't even break 100 and that's across all gens
>>58324129nice try faggoty andy
>>58321781did this start development before gen 4 was released? that ssems like way to blatant of a froslass clone
I don't know if certain romhacks aren't good or if I've been burned out when it comes to Pokémon games.
>>58315406Loved Viva Las Vega. No reason to play Vega anymore.
>>58326911Take a break and come back to them.
>>58327129How long?
>>58327185Until you feel like playing Pokemon again.
>>58325683light should be super effective against poison because of UV sterilization
>Mega Evolutions (permanent)Why?
Is there any pokemon fan game that uses a more traditional JRPG party system? By that I mean having more several human characters in your party.
>>58328433>parties within partiesFor what purpose?
>>58328453It just fits the plot I'm envisioning.The only solution I can think of so far is to add switchable party members, each with a single Pokémon as a partner for double combats.
>>58328433Mariomon has a couple of parts where you're partnered with Captain Toad and each of you has their own parties.
How do we make the faster battle animations and dialogue of pokemon emerald rogue mandatory for every romhack?It's just so painful to see animations taking ages playing out in vanilla games or even other romhacks and fangames. I don't want to go back to playing these games on emulators, I could play emerald rogue on my 3ds comfily without having to abuse speedup or savestates.What are some romhacks that also play as fast without affecting the music negatively?
>>58322641>Roshi with the TorkoalAwesome reference, Infinity looks very interesting.>>58322949That's fucked, Demorigon already looks so strong from glancing at the Procyon and Deneb wiki. Multiscale is a nutty ability as is, and it's typing is great to top it off. One of the mons I wanna use most just off design.>>58322976Here's hoping. Making ANOTHER original region with ANOTHER batch of fakemon has to take its toll, but the Vega team is clearly very talented. I was never a big fakemon guy until recently, but I've been seeing the light. >>58326460>did this start development before gen 4 was released?I genuinely don't know, I did get Gardevoir vibes from the line as well though.>>58325245Nice team anon! This games Charizard IS really cool.
>>58328929>How do we make the faster battle animations and dialogue of pokemon emerald rogue mandatory for every romhack?Put it on your wish list, then stay off the naughty list.>What are some romhacks that also play as fast without affecting the music negatively?Pokemon Tourmaline, which is supposed to drop in a completed state tommorow, implemented it a while ago.Pokemon Recharged Yellow/Pink also has the feature.
I know Kanto has been built in Essentials and is available for download, but has anyone done Hoenn, Johto, or any other region?
>>58286465What the fuck
>>58305731Gba graphics are so cringe
>>58328929>How do we make ... mandatory for every romhack?Generally speaking you should make the feature as easy as possible to implement, so that anyone can add it to their hacks with little effort. Make the modification's source code available and add it to the wiki for visibility, or better yet get the feature to be built-in to pokeemerald-expansion.Then give devs that implement the feature positive feedback and shill the feature in different hacking communities to get people to see its value and to motivate others to also add it to their own hacks.
>>58330019Not sure. Technically, there is a Hoenn since there's a Snakewood remake, and if that doesn't count Infinite Fusion 2 is going to be Hoenn.
>>58330175Are those resources available for download somewhere?
>try Prism>going pretty good>get to first major dungeon>need to catch an electric type to not wander in the dark >need to fight five non fodder trainers >all this while having barely enough money for repels or potions>give up after fourth trip to the pokecenterWhy do original regions always try to make dungeons as annoying as possible instead of just a brisk trek through an area?
>>58330210The encounter rates in those caves was ridiculous.
>>58330210Yeah Mound Cave is kinda cancer, it gets better though!Protip, you could transfer your save file over to a Debug mode patch of the rom file and give yourself infinite healing items and repels to save yourself a lot of time. It's not even cheating at that point, just eliminating tedium.
>>58328929>just mindlessly bloat and homogenize every single work with QoL to appease ADHD addled kiddies who need to consume each and every release that pops upThere's an option to turn off animations in the vanilla games for a reason. Use it. Faggots like you are the reason why gaming has gone to shit.
why does my computer think quetzel is a virus?
>>58330281>There's an option to turn off animations in the vanilla games for a reasonNot that anon, but did it ever occur to you that maybe the type of person who cares enough about preserving the intended gameplay experience and that would seek out alternatives to traditional emulator speed-up to preserve the original sound quality and tempo would NOT want to remove battle animations from for an incremental speed increase?
>>58330486why are you retarded
>>58330183No.

How hard would it be to make a firered romhack where all Pokémon can mega evolve
>>58332049dependsgive every firered mon a mega: hardput only the mons that have a mega in firered: easy enough
>>58329578Thank you for the recommendations, anon. >>58330281Turning off the animations doesn’t make the game and turns faster or cut the retarded delays when mashing the A button to advance dialogue you already know. I actually like seeing the attack animations, especially the custom ones designed for attacks from later gens. I put 500+ hours into Emerald Rogue doing all kinds of challenges and experimenting with funny scenarios because it was easy to replay and get straight to the actual game parts: catching, teambuilding, battling. Before that game I actually played romhacks like Unbound, Vega and Clover also on 3ds. But there would always come a point where I'd just end up dumping saves on PC, and use mGBA fast-forward for grinding EVs or quickly get through slop wild battle encounters. Never had to do that once with emerald rogue nor did the thought ever come to mind. >just mindlessly bloat and homogenize every single work with QoL to appease ADHD addled kiddies who need to consume each and every release that pops upOther RPGs let you speed up animations without breaking music or gameplay. Emulator fast-forward is SOULLESS but a necessary evil for me when I want to do challenge runs, experiment with shit and actually engage with the game. Unbound (insane mode), Elite Redux and probably more games have partially solved the grind issue with EV/IV customization at all times, but didn't tackle the UI slowness problem. Having built-in but optional and customizable settings to speedup dialogue and animations should become more popularized. I'd understand if it was Gamefreak not wanting this because they are retarded, but I don't see a reason for devs or players to be against this. I sent my initial post because I actually tried to play Odyssey and Crystal Clear on 3ds but dropped them due to the atrocious pacing in battles. It adds up quickly. I could just run them on an emulator and use speedup, but I'd miss out on the music. The slowness serves no one.
>>58332049Easy from a technical perspective. Mega evolution has already been implemented by others and you can add it to your rom fairly easily. The challenge is the amount of effort it will take to design megas for every mon and to insert them into the game.
>>58332049Every individual Pokémon or every line?
