What did xhe mean by this?

>>30677290

Well, everyone sees what someone using a trip without any need to do so means.

>>30677393

Here's a forest map I made, I'm trying to play on the lighting with the fogs. It's missing the waterfalls and some stairs.

I really did the HGSS tiles and lighting, man.
The water looks fresh~

Also, the route's layout looks really expansive, which would make exploring fun.

How else can i easily make a rom without essentials?

>>30677976
Considering the fact that you don't use Essentials to make rom hacks, plenty.

Depends on what you want to make.
Difficulty hacks are rather easy.

>>30678020
I want to make a whole new game

>>30678111
That's going to be hard to nigh-impossible, ROMhacking has a really steep difficulty curve beyond the basic stuff, and even the basic things are difficult because tutorials are obtuse/nonexistent.

If you want to do it, though, there's a pack of tools somewhere in the pastebin, though. If it's not there, I'll upload it on drive.

Mabye ill wait a little before i start development. I'm thinking of new pokemon for it but im nit a good artist. I need a middle evo for the psyduck and pansear line

>>30678111
It's gonna take you some time, my dude.
I suggest getting a team together where everyone is equally committed to the project, if you want to dive head-first.

You might want to learn to program first before taking such a leap.

>>30678206
I think the psyduck middle evo should be a green duck that is unstable. Idk about the pansear middle evo. Mabye a quadrupledal bigger pansear?I need help. I also want to redesign simisear slightly to make it more intimidating and a fire/dark

>>30678523
So more like a gorilla Simisear?
A green teen duck could be bro-tier

>>30678702
Kinda but more slender than the average gorilla
Oddish, psyduck, and pansear are the starters

>>30678745
That's pretty interesting.
>that triangle tho

>>30679074
I also thought of a regional varient of toucannon. Its a toucannon with its blue beak resembalkibg a cannon, it has duck feet ans a fish tail. Its a water/flying special attacker

>>30679918
>an actual TouCANNON
go on...

>>30678111
It's fucking hard. Just editing an existing game (mechanics and complex event scripting) is a bitch for an initiate. I should know, my hack is still in infancy after two fucking years.

>>30677485
That's gorgeous. Where did you get the tileset from?

Are there any good alternative GBA tilesets out there? Preferably something like pic related?

>Arbormere Town
>Strataform City
>Heartspring City
Very Imaginative and Very Comfy
You're doing great

>>30688772
Thanks anon. I'm trying my best to have the town names reflect my sketches of them but it's a lot harder than I imagined it would be

>Arbormere is a small suburb by a lake, also the starting town
>Strataform is a mining community making a killing selling rare metals to the tech conglomerate in a nearby city, ground gym is run by one of the mine execs because his 6yo daughter asked him to and he can't say no to her
>Heartspring is comfy lakefront property and a popular vacation spot, grass gym is located in the surrounding forest and run by a masseuse and his friends

Even if I never finish the hack, at least I can say the worldbuilding was fun as hell.

>>30689165
When I read "Strataform", I imagined a city partially enclosed by a large mountain, so a quarry/mining town would be great

Heartspring would be really cool shaped like a heart, I think
