Tentacruel Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I've actually been thinking of making a tutorial on basic Pokemon ROM hacking , but am unsure how to go about it. Anyway, Discuss the hacking of Pokemon ROMs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smear Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 I was big on ROM hacking before. I have all of the programs aswell. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobo666 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Ahhh ROM hacking. Those were the days.... I think I'll finish mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippocampus Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 ROM hacking just takes up [b]so[/b] much time; it's fun, but it takes a lot of effort to make a really good game. I've been in and out of it for 2 years now and I still don't have a finished ROM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grunt Issun Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I remember thinking of an idea for what could be a new pokemon game, but since it won't happen, and I'm not good at hacking, it probably won't ever be made Pokemon: Medevil Version! (also refered to as Gen 0) Plot: You are a "Magic Beast Tamer" (pokemon trainer) in the age where apricorns have been made into capturing devices (they would be called apricorns) and besides that, the plot is a normal pokemon plot... oh and the villians are an order of black knights using there magical beasts for evil Differances: No bikes, horses Trainer sprites are changed to look more... midevil pokeball sprite changed to look like the apricorn thrown markets are now stands Pokemon centers are now stands with healing creatures doing to work all areas look more midevil, like everything else! new trainer titles Professers labs replaced with larger models of houses, which are also more medivle looking gym leaders are now the king or queen of the individual town, the elite 4 are the main consultants and gaurds of the leuge master, who is the emporer of the region, you battle each one for a share of the land, once you collect enough land (the 8 badges) you are recognized as a king/queen, thus being worthy enough to go to the emporers castle, and try to challange him as well as some other things I'm still thinking of, it would take alot of hacking work anyway, so its best as a cool idea, not a product in motion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippocampus Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 @Wang Fire: It's not a hack, but I have seen someone make a game like that using RPG Maker XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catman25 Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I assume you're good at spriting, scripting, mapping and the likes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted December 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Mapping? Yes. Spriting? Hell no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes months to figure out the code to one level of a game to a professional so imagine what this would take? Just being realistic you would have to approach a professional and meet up and pay cash, searching on the internet is hopeless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squidward Tentacles Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 I'm really into ROM hacking. I cant ever seem to find a working A-Text, though. Anyone know where i can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted December 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 So, think I should do a tutorial? I'd just do the basics to help people get started. Also, if anyone can recommend a good screen capturing video program, let me know. If I can't do a video, I'll probably end up doing a text one with pictures, but a video would make it a lot easier.

Felix Culpa Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Aha! A topic in my expertise! ^^ I am experimenting with different scripts and Advance Map pallets for FireRed and what not. I prefer hacking the third generation games over anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Leo Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 I was interested in making Pokemon YCM that Brushfire tried, but didn't work. It would be interesting to do something like this. If anybody wants to do something like this with me then drop me a PM ;D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
