I mean, I used to come to this section for interesting homebrew/ rom hacking topics, but now there's just pages of "Pokesav help"

im not "pissed" But I really think people should be not as gamefaqy and try harder to keep all the topics reduced,,, i mean...
I'm sure all these "help" and "mac" and stuff could've been in one and the same help or faq topic... (So maybe a mod want to merge all those pokesav topics into the faq or a junkbin or so?)

I whole heartedly agree, which is why I wrote the FAQ posted on these boards. Hopefully this'll reduce the number of new threads started for PokeSav and leave this forum for what it's supposed to be.

We really do need a mod to help clean up the current ones though.

this long list of topics reminds us all of one thing : if you want love, go for the pokemons ! We all know there's tons of far better/more useful stuff in this part of the board. But you can't beat such a high demand... makes me a bit bitter, sorry.

It kinda annoys me since I don't care about Pokemon at all, but I'm not "pissed off" by it. They will die down after awhile and things will go back to normal.

I can only say one thing in reply to this topic... PRAISE THE LORD IT'S NOT BARNEY!!! (aka: remember, it can always be worse

). It sure would be nice if every topic with "poke" in it's name got shunted to a separate area, though (preferably in a little ball with a disabled button, that one can throw away easily enough).

i'm pissed off how many people ruin the game for anyone who plays it honestly.

everyone just ignored the disclaimer on the official pokesav website saying not using it to cheat pokemon for online battles/trades. and they also didnt allow this tool to be distributed elsewhere.

the number of topics in general pisses me off, especially since I think the game is pretty shit, I really hate gamefreak, theyre the stupidest and laziest game developers out
worst thing is, they got lucky, and got handed the pokemon franchise, so they'll never have to change

    How do you know if the night will be good when you're asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    because i didn't say i was asleep

    i said i was sleeping...

    sleeping with uremum

    Even my mum slept on that uremum
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
    Karma177 @ Karma177: @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really...
