Pokemon Violet Demo News Update

[Cartmic]

And so the brand new Demo is being released!
The game is a big change from the original just another in their cannon series of Pokemon games, but I'm sure some of you will still enjoy it.

This is a Pokemon Red hack.

Although in the readme I have asked not to report bugs, If you somehow find a serious game affecting bug please report it.

PLEASE READ THE README ON HOW TO PATCH.

Pokemon Violet Demo One
By Cartmic.



Crion was a relatively uninhabited land until survivors of the French speaking Vieuxcrion
quake moved onto it in the early 1860's.
Christian Missionary's from the Islands of Croy also moved over and helped the Vieuxcrions
build new towns and villages.




1974 Councillor Delia Ingrid became Minister for the land of Crion, in her 35 years of power she
systematically removed all known sources of written history before the 1970's, jailing anyone who
got in her way. 2009, Arthur Ernshaw is brought over to Crion from Naljo to help David Yew a
Pokemon Researcher and leader of a resistance group with an aim of bringing Crion out of Ingrids
oppression.






Rumour has it that this bridge will be fixed soon



Poor guy, he was in an abseiling accident.







New Marts!









* 3 Towns
* 1 Routes/1 Route Quarry
* 1 Forest
* 1 Town Hall



Please do not report any bugs, apart form spelling mistakes or grammatical errors. as this is a stable Demo release and not Beta material.

I now realise that I've spelled 'systematically' wrong, this will be fixed in the next release.



Professor Oak's image is still in the intro screen, I am working on changing this to the
correct image of David Yew.

Yew's wheelchair appears to malfunction when he takes you to his lab, this is because I need
to rewrite the script from the orignal Oak script. (also I shall redraw him a little)
.
The two people that attempt to give you Coffee will not give you Coffee, rather, they will give
you their original Pokemon Red items. Again this problem is a script issue and I hope to have it
fixed by the next Demo.

Holy Crap! How did you put that outline?

[Mateo]

BeNjaMMiN - You mean the Border around it? That's always been there mate. You can choose whether or not you want it turned on. It's there to put a border around it when you play it using the Super Gameboy for the SNES. He did edit it though, which is cool


Cartmic - Lookin' good mate!

Thanks man.

Version 1.2 Now available, with some fixed text, tiles, and a rather embarrassing last minute change that messed up a Town Map tile has now been fixed.

Looks great! I'll be playing it today and let you know what I think of it.

OK, I didn't take as much time of as i thought I would, so anyway the first post has been updated with new screenshots and ive set up a youtube account, here: www.youtube.com/skeetendocartmic note that im not using my cartmic account, I forgot the password along time ago and also lost what email account I registered with so that channel is out of action.

There is a Violet update video up here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGoiNtQnDgQ

Wa-hey! Lookin good mate, as always. Checked out the video and all too. Looking forward to the next release, but of course, take your time and don't feel rushed.

[Cartmic]

Heya all just a little progress update,

I have not abandoned this, I have various other things going on in life at the minute and can't keep my mind focused on this too, so everything is on hold again.

I got asked on another forum about adding Pokemon like Coolboyman did in Brown, if I remember correctly this was never my original intention and I am not going to deviate from that (though I did consider years ago putting just one in, a Ghost version of Rhydon after I managed to remove the shading messing around with his image code, but looking back it was silly and I could never had executed the rest of him well).

All the best,

Cartmic.

Wow, April was my last reply.
Back in August I once again moved out of my family home for the big bad world and with that unfortunately left the Windows computer at behind which has the latest developments of Violet, so because of this I've not been able to do anything with it. Hope to fetch it when I go home in November, really itching to get back to into it.

Suprisingly enough, it's the same bridge near Laurel City, which was also mentioned to be broken.....

This whole "all written history before 1970 was erased" thing reminds me of Nico Robin and the Ponyglyphs from One Piece, in which the world government erased all information on the "Void Century" from the history books for some unknown reason, and it makes it kind of intresting, I wonder why this minister removed all this history from the books.....
