Week 2

Pokemon Rocket Black - Week 2 Update
gallery_305428_1222_27262.png

- I've made fairly good progress this week. Mostly Overworlds, mugshots and even finished The female grunt Backsprite! Not only this, but i've made a start on editing the text (Edited up to the first gym) and i've edited wild Pokemon up to the First gym town!

- I'm also gonna let you know that that all pokemon will be available in the game. (As with most black/white hacks) but it's also going to be a lot more varied. For example not just Pokemon like Pidgey, Zigzagoon or a Poochyena etc. will be catchable at Route 1, their will be many other types in these areas such as Fire, water, Steel etc. The reasons for both these wild pokemon changes will tie in with the story, so it won't seem odd.

-This week's photos reveal a few things:
  • How the Male hero grunt has turned out. Opinions?
  • Cassidy will be leader of Nacrene city/ Rocket base. Guess who's leader of Castelia? :P
  • How I will add new Overworlds to certain location (Rocket grunts are just photoshopped just to show what it'll be like as I havn't started to edit the overworlds properly yet).
  • Ariana will be head of your college and assigns you and your friends most of your missions. What could she be telling the team?
In a week to two weeks time when my computer gets back from repair i'll be able to really dig into the hack and start working at a much faster pace. Question though, I was wondering whether I should post the hack into the 'Rom hack and Translation' forum when the hack would be about 40% finished and include a 0.1 beta that'll go up to the First gym or something, or wait until the hack is around 90% (a few days before it's finished) and have the first release as 1.0

Make sure to come back next Saturday to keep up with the project's progress ;)

This does look promising, I'd definitely try it out once a patch is released.

HOWEVER...

It's not a good idea to make a thread in the hacking forums just yet. There are a ton of projects in there and let's face it. Not many see the light of day. I'm not saying this won't (I hope it does) it's just that there will be a lot of people being negative there.

Show them by working hard on it, make a lot of progress first, then a thread.

[/quote]This is true. You should do what Drayano does and post the hack once it is completely finished. This will yield excellent results.
 
Okay thanks for the opinion guys, I'll wait until it's basically all complete before I make the topic. I'll keep making these weekly updates so at least it'll be heard of and won't be a completely unknown hack when I first post it :P @Thanatos Telos I see where you're coming from but unfortunately the only way to do that would be to use the 'Catch trainer's Pokemon' code which wouldn't work as it'd mean you could catch Pokemon of the people on your own side...
 
Wow this looks very good. I remember there was someone else who was making a similar one using the older Pokemon generation. I think it was Pokemon Rocket or something?
 
Thank you! Yeah, 'Toxic Purple' Provided me with a few ideas for the whole 'Being in Team Rocket concept'. Theirs another one called TRE (Pokemon 'Team rocket edition' I think :P
 
Yeeah Toxic Purple...I remember that...quite an interesting project, looking forward to seeing it finished.

    I want a handheld gaming system with a tablet sized screen, like a 8 or10" screen, with controllers that can detach like the Switch.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    @BigOnYa i was legitimately trying to scratch my leg, this is reminding me of that cylinder post
  • Scarlet @ Scarlet:
    I don't see the buzz about a square screen personally. I think there will be a review on the site within a few weeks though if you are interested.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go

    Ken unless the games are made for that screen size most suck on a screen that size... Having a square screen and being brighter and higher res helps but it's not a cure all, text is tiny bullets are tiny, your.... Well lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You can stretch to fit probably it's not all bad that they make it seem to be
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    People always yap about oh but you loose pixels but yeah it won't look awful either
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like filters :P
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Filters are why you don't go on 2nd dates
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Lol nahhh it's because I usually get what they want on the first date lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I swear if I hear "I don't usually do this on the first date" on more time... I am going to start counting
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
