It -does- pick a random attack. It's just that the randomizer, which is taken straight from the original, is not seeded quite right.

Yes, but something about Cearn makes it impossible to get there.

Y'know, there's a pretty thick line between simply criticising and being total jerks about it.

So far, most of the reactions to this thing have been the latter. Keep it up and you won't have to expect anything else, like OpenPhoenix.

I had hopes for this thing, worked on it for almost a year. Never finished a single project, so I kept working, trying to finish at least this.

Board2, Jul, GBADev... merry fucking Christmas.

Shut up Hivemind. I spent most of my time working on OP.

Anyway, Elin talked me out of it, so let me restate that last post:

I will fix the things listed next year, after my break, but stop being jerks. That goes mostly for Jul, where I can't post anymore, and where the worst replies came from.

To get past Cearn, assuming you're using VBA, go to 0x0801AE58 and zero out until the 13 at 0x0801AE63. This'll remove the battle command, so you just get Cut and stuff so you can continue.

Because I forgot how to set font color using CSS

With the color attribute. Making it slightly bigger would also help.

Does the trophy stand remind anybody else of Poké Balls or is it just me? Dragoon looks awesome too.

Yeah, showing Rayquaza in that context also helps.

Documenting all this code is really tiring. Damn you Ailure for talking me into doing this! Five down, seventeen to go

Okay, I just added a sensibility check to the battle system. Opponents now won't use moves that don't make sense, so no Helping Hand in single battles and no putting sleeping monsters to sleep, stuff like that.

New version — same basic game, less bugs. Same link too.

* copy-paste *

Open
• Paralysis is applied after fainting — just that. Paralysis should check for fainted status.
• Help system doesn't set all things, so the cursor might be outside of the screen or the whole thing's a little darker.

Unconfirmed resolved
• Writes in mirrored or invalid VRAM areas

Resolved with a cheap trick
• Game freezes just before Cearn battle — somehow, the dialogue box statemachine doesn't like very long strings. "Fixed" by cutting Cearn's lines in half.

Resolved
• Running speed is equal to walking — it is so! It's just hard to see.
• Things on the map sometimes use the wrong sprite — randomizer gave weird results, fixed by using unsigned int
• Characters can move into the same spot when both are moving at the same time — because the sprite collission checker should test the tile being walked to. Thanks to tepples from GBADev for suggesting this.
• When spotted by a trainer to the right, the player uses a "zapped" sprite instead of looking right — facing = ( facing + 2 ) % 4.
• Helping Hand — most enemy moves are now checked for sensibility.
• Growl, Tail Whip et al affect user
• Potions heal above max HP — thanks, Cearn!

Not bugs at all
• No Poké Balls to catch with — try pressing Right in the inventory screen.
• No weather effects — only fog is implemented, and has no effect on battle.
• No sound — sound has been left out of the demo to cut download size. Also, the engine used is illegal.
• Levelling up goes really fast — done on purpose. You get triple experience for demonstration purposes.
• Backpics do not use chosen colors — now fixed.
• Conversion failed — effect missing. Conversion is just one of them. Missing effects auto-fail.

The perspectives don't match, Buu-Huu. You can see the top of the ground, but not the blocks' tops. Also doesn't match the other levels very well - Projectile Panic has the standard front view, while the Halberd has a less exaggerated angle.

I never liked that kind of thing. It's still your choice though. I'm not gonna stop ya.

Scrolling while walking feels weird

---

Mind elaborating?

You get no cash for winning a battle because we don't know the win cash formula yet. Only the lose cash one.

These bugs and stuff are now being added to the big list for fixing.

Nah, we got it. Just need to make (and or find) a table.

Prize money = highest level in opponent's party * trainer type specific multiplier value.

Compiler optimizations, dude.

remember HAM can't simply optimize

I call total bullshit on jargon. I'm not using HAM at all. The whole compiler optimization thing is now redundant.

In other news, I just found out that the image conversion program I use can take PNG files, making the source data up to 75% smaller :3
