  1. Whew, just finished what's required for a statue app in Hardcore on the thread.

  2. And I already have a bugs list. Anyways sorry for double posting but I mentioned a while ago something about adding statues of people in the game. This is because the area outside the CoM really feels kind of bear and generic and it needs a bit of decoration. While I wish I could do every fan (omg I would die attempting that), I kind of decided to do something similar to they gyms where if you do one of the following accomplishments below you'd get a statue like this one. Basically all I really require as proof you accomplished one of the achievements. The easiest way is to have a pic of either defeating Ciel's last Pokemon or the Last Pokemon being KO'd in the CoM, but I would like some recorded logs of your actions (these aren't required but just like 2-3 sentences would do wonders). I'd also like a pic of the team of 6 just to showcase on the new thread unless we get a hella lot of statue apps. Please do this through PMs and not here. Please, please, please don't abuse this system as then I'd have to install a system to keep track of records to verify save files and you'd have to send save files to me and it'd be a bit of a complicated mess (and delay the mod even more). Right now, I'll be pretty relaxed about it so if you've beaten the CoM beforehand, I'll except a log or summary of a few of the battles. Anyways, here's the list of achievements that can earn you a statue: P.S. the Chamber of Memories is no longer under spoiler lock so you guys are free to talk about it including the champion fight here or anywhere.
  3. When you upload your game, you generally delete your PBS file. Deleting the PBS file pretty much makes it so that people can't mod or make changes to the game. The only thing you decrypt for a game is the data folder which with RPGmaker is generally counterproductive because you can easily decrypt it.
  4. There is no possible way Julia could have her team if you were playing any version of Hardcore which you were. Like I never had her original team at any point (unless that was a CoM screw up which again, this does not have any CoM data). 2.1 is the old version of Hardcore without any extra features so I theorize you ran regular Reborn for Julia as she has led with Magnemite for Hardcore and 2.1 shares the same data folder as regular reborn (CoM has its own save file system). I'm gonna have to take a look at the 2.1 dl file as I might have to take it down permanently (seriously though, I never have used Julia's old team so I'm in disbelief I'm at fault here. I'd believe Serra would have a Magikarp before Julia has that team). Can someone kind of confirm or disconfirm Julia has her Reborn team? Edit: I just did a test of 2.1 on my computer and the mediafire dl link and both used Magnemite for the lead.
  5. Silas has a B rank in Swords, A rank in Lances, and D rank in Axes. ಠ_ಠ

    1. Sheep

      Sheep

      With Effie I just get her to a C rank in swords and lances and then arms scroll her.

    2. Sheep

      Sheep

      *Swords and axes.

  6. Well aside from the thing mentioned above I'm still here and I wasn't really sure if we were moving forward or not (especially since everyone else just kind of stopped), so right now I think I'm gonna stop glancing at this page so much. So someone please PM me if we're moving forward or I need to PM so that we don't end up waiting on me because I forgot to check daily.
  7. I'm not sure if I'm ruining the fun or I'm adding more fuel to the discussion, but look at Ame's words carefully. At first glance, you all made a very, very good assumption, but an assumption is still an assumption. I have a theory of what's going to happen, but I'd rather keep my lips closed and see where this train goes next.
  8. People always wonder why I have no incentive to cook. It's because I'd end up leaving the oven on when I leave.

    1. BlueMoonIceCream

      There IS a solution, now hear me out... turn the oven off.

      I do the same thing all the time, it's just not something you think about when you're done cooking because the first thing you think is "aw sweet FOOD"

      I've set water to boil and forgotten about it. More than once.

  9. Are you a competent trainer and want a statue in Reborn Hardcore? I'll explain the details later but here's some pics in the mean time: https://gyazo.com/b3ac1f9cd0dab414bf0fa8e864eef3c5 https://gyazo.com/1d0aa9b6451c228e97b970c1c47ff128

  10. I believe the reason why Commander is there is kind of a funny one. In the first release of Hardcore Terra was one of the easiest leaders in the game tied with Ciel and Shelly (yes Shelly was the easiest leader at one point). She didn't really use the Glitch Field to the fullest potential so I tried thinking of a guy who really liked Psychic types and used a lot of gimmics and weird mon choices to fill the void. Just a fun fact but the original ace for me was going to be a shuckle but it didn't really work like it was supposed to so...yeah I decided to pick one of my favorite Psychic types to replace it. The air balloon exploit is one of those things I was holding off on trying to fix in hopes E16 would be coming soon like a year ago and now it's at the point I may as well wait. I also believe Terra originally had a Mega Swampert, but that didn't work out as well as Quagmire due to it not being able to recover or just take a Surf to the face. Diggersby was also there but it was no Claydol. My only other mega options were Mega Rawrchomp or Replace Excadrill with Mega Steelix. Since Excakill is her secondary ace (technically her ace in the other season), I chose to mega Rawr. CoM was one of those projects I created a long, long time ago (like 1.7 and had 70% of the project implemented) but I got burned out after spending like 3 weeks working on it and Hardcore fixes at the same time. 22 fights were originally planned in which I think I had to ask like 4 different people to try and help since that's a lot of fights that need quality checked (tbh I still haven't finished quality checking all of them) so eventually I grabbed Trevore who did a ton of the extra fights and Julia's as well. Around 40 trainer files were added in total and two maps that were made from scratch. Only one event is not fleshed out (I'm altering it since 100-200 lines of text is just too much for a single event). I was also working on a lot of the features for 1.5 when I picked the project back up. I tried my best to designing as close to the actual league challenge as possible.
  11. This is kind of a complicated answer since all Pokemon have EVs (the normal formula for the regular Pokemon games is level times 1.5 spread across all stats until it's like 80 something). Reborn (or maybe it was essentials) added in coding to adjust the evs to whatever you like so long as the total doesn't exceed 508. Regular Reborn doesn't do EV spreads until Charlotte for full teams but aces start getting EVs starting with Serra. Hardcore is a little bit different since EVs are added to Pokemon starting with Florinia. My general rule is to leave EVs alone unless a Pokemon needs it (or needs nerfed) then I use a formal where I figure out what their normal ev spread is (the 1.5 formula) and how many EVs I have remaining to give a boost in stats, usually defense. Perfect EV spreads don't happen until about Terra and quite a lot of boss Pokemon don't even have custom EV spreads. Let's just say people see the spreads and think I'm like the biggest idiot and have no idea what I'm doing since they're not the 252/252/4 people are used to seeing.
  12. Only thing it does is that you can't use the bag in battle. Literally that's all.
  13. Done. I know you asked for the wrong stone, but of course I'm going to make you work for it. Done, though I made it an Azurill with Huge Power. Though my general rule of thumb is to never force natures (and sometimes abilities) as overriding anything makes it permanent I believe. IVs I randomize and just add 10 to the really bad ones. @Lord Chespin, I already did yours through the PM Edit: Just as a rule of thumb, I will try to do more of these however if you request a Pseudo legend or Legendary Pokemon, I will automatically deny your request and you'll have to wait for someone else to fulfill them.
  14. I keep forgetting Typhlosion gets Flash Fire XD so I'll probably change that for Hardcore (probably not here) and CoM for E16. Charlotte's teams was one of the first ones I actually did where the only revamp she got was that Talonflame. The only reason she has that bird was for a compromise not giving her Mega Charizard Y, and for good reason because she just hits so freaking hard without it. Her damage checks were pretty borderline in my original testing so I'm probably not going to give her a buff. Samson oh boy Samson has a funny story. His original Mega was Lucario. Lucario is one of my least favorite Pokemon (it's growing on me, but not by much), but that Mega sprite was just so ugly. So I did a poll and people picked Blaziken over Heracross (I also did a poll for Noel). Noel originally had a Mega Audino for a Misty Terrain gimmick, but it didn't work as intended (if it was regular reborn difficulty though, that would've probably impressed a lot of people imo). I also learned Gogoat is not a Grass/Normal type designing that fight. Noel was also going to get Mega Bird Jesus but that thing was broken to hell. Anyways, Samson's team was a lot of fun to design even though I had to like completely flip the level cap of Luna and Samson since Luna made the cap 70. I even edited the trainer card to match (I betcha didn't notice that slight change). I probably should lower his levels by 1 or 2, but it's kind of to bring back memories of how overleveled he felt back in the XII-XIII versions of reborn. Luna was designed the same way as a nod. Can I also say I'm very impressed by all the Megas you got including Cradburry. That old lady was the last person to get a Mega when I was doing trainer edits since I felt like revamping her team a little bit. That was another fun fight to design despite her not being too hard. I also sometimes did Megas just merely for the purpose of guess the mega like you were doing since I try to pick a Mega that makes sense to the leader. Edit: I'm also surprised you didn't name me after the Ninetales.
  15. The level limiter is almost indefinitely going to be chosen at the start of the game. The ability to turn it off or on at any point kind of defeats the purpose and the intentions of it (easier grinding with the tradeoff of wasting a ton of exp that's harder to manipulate vs more experience that requires a bit more managing). I mean since I won't be doing much with Hardcore I don't mind people sending me PMs to turn it on for in progress games for the first month or so, THIS IS A ONE TIME ONLY THING THOUGH so if you change you're mind, you're out of luck with me at least. TM Breeding is another one that has no point being able to turn on or off at any time since it affects so little since not everyone breeds. Depending on feedback, I might make it a part of the game rather than giving the option so it's available to anyone. I merely added it so people would stop searching and downloading episode 12. The only reason I included that is because I had the code sitting there anyways since I needed to do something for a no item run. It's untested so who knows what it looks like. I don't think you need perfect mons to beat it but you likely will need solid teams if you attempt it. Like pick the best mons you can kind of solid. On a side note, I'll allow people to mod or edit Hardcore if they wish to better flesh out insanity mode since I won't do anything with it. (Just PM me if you're interested and I'll give you a full rundown how to do it.
  16. The main campaign you don't really need to grind, but in order to get all the paralogues, you probably will need to do some grinding and you will definitely need to grind to get through the second half of the dlc chapters because they are hard and you need max stat characters for many of them (especially apothesis).
  17. And I'm done with that post. Anyways, 1.5 CoM is released and we're slowly preparing to E16 with that strawpoll.

  18. Okay, I want to get one thing out of the way before I do anything else. DO NOT PLAY THIS MOD WITH EPISODE 16 upon release. I will get more to that below. So here's what you guys have been waiting for: CoM 1.5 Links Mediafire: Here Mega: Here Reborn Hardcore 2.1 (This is the old version without any added content which I will explain later): Mediafire: Here Mega: Here So CoM is a bit of an expansion of the original CoM that adds quite a number of features. Most of the features will be chosen at the start of the game which are permanent, except nostalgia mode, though if there is a feature you really don't like just PM me the save (or maybe some of the request a mon guys if it gets bad) and I'll be able to change it. Here's a thorough explanation of each of the features: Here's the changelog for CoM 1.5: With that out of the way I need to talk a bit about episode 16 since this will be the final release before Hardcore is updated again. Due to the need of a variables and switches for CoM, this may possibly affect 16 (I'm like 100% sure it will) so I will be releasing a quickfix version of hardcore hopefully one week after the community release that will only contain modded battles in the storyline (and I swear if anyone complains about Oshawotts in that release I will lose it). This one will also fix all of the mess preventing the CoM version of Hardcore being playable on E16 of Reborn. As for updating everything in Hardcore, I'm going to do it but it'll probably take 2 weeks to a month. I can't promise any specific timeframe because there were a lot of fixes for Hardcore. There's a lot of experimental stuff here so I'd really appreciate feedback in preparation for 16 so I can fix or refine stuff. Also due to this thread being cluttered, I'm going to open a new thread and lock this one for the E16 release. There's a strawpoll in the OP (thank you solarance) so please vote if you'd rather it say here in the fan-game expose or in the Reborn City sub-thread.
  19. MistDrop, I'm just popping in here and I have absolutely no idea what you're asking right now. Generally people who create runs set rules and honor those rules without anything forcing it (such as nuzlockes where the fact you can cheat is more important than forcing you not to cheat imo). You are free to set any restrictions you want. This thread right here is used to request SPECIFIC Pokemon that can be added into a save file and generally it's 2-3. If you're question is about modding the game though to only encounter certain wild mons or something, I suppose it would be possible, however, it's quite a bit of work for something really obscure.
  20. Oh boy this topic. It's really going to be hard for me to pick a particular top ten list, but I'll try to versify this based on how good they are, their design, and their backstory and the games I've played so far are Shadow Dragon, PoR, RD, FE7, SS, Awakening, and most of fates. I'll also use a one unit per class (or basically their class) rule to help narrow it down. 10. Oscar (PoR) 9. Virion (Awakening) 8. Caeda (Shadow Dragon) 7. Arthur (Fates) 6. Eirika (Sacred Stones) 5. Canas (Fire Emblem 7) 4. Valter (Sacred Stones) 3. Dheginsea (Radiant Dawn) 2. Effie (Fates - Conquest) 1. L'arachel (Sacred Stones) It's honestly really hard to pick just 10 characters since there's just so much when it comes to Fire Emblem. Who knows? Maybe playing through another game could flip this list upside down. Anyways here's some honorable mentions: Thief - Volke (PoR/RD) Mage - Pent (FE7) Dancer - Rafiel (RD) Laguz/Transform Unit - Tibarn (PoR/RD) Soldier - Nephenee (PoR/RD) Mercenary - Gerik (SS) Myrmidon - Stefan (PoR/RD)
  21. I know one base breaker for Hardcore is Techie Johnathan because oh boy do I have people who really liked the surprise and reference and then there's people who get completely turned off by it. Doesn't really count but that one pops out in my head. (We all also know I have a huge bias for Julia because she's my fav). I'd consider putting Cain in the Base breaker because there is like no middle ground for him. Then again, I don't pay too much attention to people's thoughts and I rarely go to TVtropes. The Scrappy I feel is really hard to give someone other than Victoria. El is about the only other character who would fit that but for some reason he just kind of gets pushed aside or not hated due to the dittoceus surprise. I pretty would classify a lot of characters into the really forgettable or easy to forget categories for example: -Serra, Samson, Ciel, Arclight, The Aqua and Magma members, Luna, Noel, Orderly John, or uh...Hardy. I picked those characters because without another character they really aren't that interesting and I find to be boring. Samson has a really fun personality but it doesn't work when he's by himself and you can kind of pick out the rest.
  22. Honestly I pretty much only go through the main story and sidequests. But yeah 15 was very broken in more ways than one. I am already predicting this will be transporting hell for beta testers.
  23. Technically, it's not supposed to but what happened here is that the Gen IV normal sprite was used while the shiny sprite uses the correct gen V sprite. Since there's like 1,500...no 3,000 sprites to deal with it wouldn't be much of a surprise if there's a few errors or inconsistencies.
  24. https://gyazo.com/6ffd4bc16da56d206de5640095a4ce9a Last teaser until the release. Another new mystery trainer joins Hardcore as an optional boss.
  25. It may be night here, but the Sun never sets for this guy. https://gyazo.com/385d2119c56ab82a7d7de57d4f2e62a5
