i am currently working on making a  pokemon ruby game hack. it will be based on the PokemonXD gale of darkness game, but gameboy style! there will also be 4 gyms and an Orre league along with routes between cities. i started editing the map today, later i will probably want you GCL members to help with a few things (like drawing trainer sprites or editing items or whatever). its gonna be one of the best ruby hacks when its done!!!

all of the XD villians only. (plus others like kaminkos aide chobin, and pre gym leader justy). the list is on the first PM i sent you. whew, this hacking is harder than i thought, there are lots of numbers, my head burns! i am trying to make sense of the data shown on elitemap on the right side of the page when viewing a special tile (such as people, exits, signs ect). i wish there was a book titled "pokemon game hacking for dummies", it would be just the book for me!

Hasn't someone already made an Amethest version?
Just a little thing, if you make it worldwide hit it doesn't want to clash with someone elses…

i looked at a lot of sites, but didnt find any other hacks like this one. anyways………NEEDED JOB #2: since i cant make signs/people/items ect… cause i dont know how to edit special tiles, i was wondering if somebody could write me a guide on how to do that in elitemap (and teach me what some of the freakn code numbers mean). i can handle it if i just knew how…………

i dont have any available right now, sorry bout' that. anyways im experiencing some technical difficulty with my hack. i have been resetting the level connections so that the layout is like the Orre region, but somehow some of the maps became unaccessible. it keeps saying "invalid property value" when i load certain areas. it is VERY IMPORTANT that this problem is fixed because i need to edit the maps from ruby to make them look like the areas in Orre. i need somebody who is smart with hacking or computers, like maybe Newo or Abwayax? i will send a PM with further details to anybody who can help. :)

hmmm……oh, i know what you can do syboxez, if you know how, i think i will need somebody to do some rubikon script editing for me. i understand a LITTLE bit but it is mostly lots of text i cant understand @@
(swirly eyes). example: when you are asked to choose a pokemon, i want to have only one ball to choose: Eevee  (because its the starter from xd). script editing needs to be done to make events appear in the game (like jovi goes missing in the beginning of hack).  and SCared fir3, papa doc wanted to do sprites, but he says he needs pics and cant find any. so if you know what they look like then sure! most of the people i need are villians from XD.
