I remember in January after everything was wiped from my laptop and I had to start over after it was fixed, I needed to download an extracting program and had trouble with a few, including both of the ones you mentioned (my issues were different though; IIRC my antivirus thought that the programs were viruses). I asked for help and this was the advice given to me: and it worked. If you haven't tried 7zip, maybe that will work?

Are you not able to download it at all, or can you download it but not play? If it's the second: after downloading, you need to extract the folder, and after it's finished, go into the extracted folder and double click the "Game" program with the orange icon. Were you able to do this and if not, how far were you able to go? If it's the first: I don't really have any ideas about why the download wouldn't be working; are you able to provide more details about what happens? 1. If you haven't already, you can search for legendaries and hunt for marbles. There are notepad files in the game folder with locations/instructions for them ("legendarysidequests" and "marblelocations"). There's also the ranger, police, Pokemon Research Institute, Sea Star Help Section, and Team Portal HQ sidequests, along with a few other smaller ones scattered throughout the game. 2. Do you remember where this was mentioned? Off the top of my head I don't remember anyone mentioning a special training method. I think the closest to a special training method in Spork would be the EV training centers. After the Battle Frontier's grand opening, there's an Audino trainer there that has level 100 Audinos, so that would probably be the fastest way. 3. There isn't a way to reset them in-game, but I can alter them if you send me your save file. I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

Good whatever time of day it is for you, Reborn residents! We've got big news for you today!

That's fine about finding it boring. I wanted players to still be able to battle all the characters in the postgame if they wanted to, but I know that not everyone is interested in that kind of thing. There'll definitely be more side content in the next reupload with the expansion of Ocean Coast! I also had an idea today while watching Love Live to add a little more to the idol postgame event. In addition to the player becoming an idol, I thought it'd be neat for the fruit-based characters to be an idol group and perform there too. So I'm going to come up with a group name and song for them. And since it'll take a while to do all this, it's possible I'll have other ideas for sidequests between now and then too.

There's the hide and seek sidequest (more details can be found in the notepad file "hideandseeklocations"). There's the ranger, police, Sea Star Help Section, and Team Portal HQ sidequests if you haven't done those yet There's a little girl in Cianosa City who says she's looking for a Fountain Pen, which you can find in Aliora's fountain. There's a family in Aliora City that's looking for a Toy Robot, which can be found in the BCC Building probably a few more that aren't coming to mind right now

It seems like it isn't an Essentials/script error, since those look different from this kind of message and they say where in the scripts that the error occurred. Going by the three circles in the top left of the program error message: Are you using a Mac? Macs usually have a harder time with running RPG Maker games. One way to help with this is apparently to delete the game's audio files, which has worked for a few people in the thread.* * @SilverHelio may be able to provide a better solution

They also regenerate on each visit since it's a mystery dungeon. But considering what happened to some people in the Cave of Compliments, I was worried it might be possible to get stuck in Bunnelby Burrows too. Future plans: There's going to be (at least, but hopefully only) one more reupload in the future. It won't be soon; it'll probably be mid-late August or early September, since I have a lot planned for it. First I'd like to thank Cass. I was helping her test audio compression for Reborn today, and she offered to compress Spork's audio for me too. The audio folder is what takes up a majority of size/space in RPG Maker games, and having it compressed will significantly reduce the download time. Cass was able to make the audio folder 500 MB smaller. In addition to the compressed audio folder, here are my current notes on what to fix for the next reupload: -make cave walls in Bunnelby Burrows and Cave of Compliments passable so that players can't get stuck when entering them (I decided I'd rather break the laws of physics than change them from mystery dungeons to regular caves; I just felt like they're cooler as mystery dungeons) -Scraggy and Scrafty's learnsets need to be updated from Gen 6 to Gen 7 -add the correct party screen icons for the USUM Pokemon and add E18's move animations -make it clearer that after finding the four Universe Fragments, you're supposed to talk to the scientist at the Pokemon Research Institute before continuing the quest. This isn't mentioned in the notepad file and a few people were confused at this part of the quest because of it -fix typo in Kayla's speech at Nosy News: loss steam -> lose steam -fix typo in Emily's dialogue when confronting Pandora at Team Portal's HQ: I'm not still not convinced -> I'm still not convinced that's everything I've noted so far from posts here, PMs, and watching peoples' playthroughs, but if there's anything else, please let me know. I also plan to expand Ocean Coast! I'm not completely happy with the way the map turned out. I like what's there, but I feel like there should be more. The real Ocean Coast is the capital city of the country Serenity, but it seems so small in-game compared to what a capital city would look like. I'd like it to look as spectacular as I imagine it to look like. My current theory about my identity on Cerri is also that I am/was a princess of Serenity that lives in Ocean Coast, so that might also be part of why I feel like expanding it. I held back on mentioning that I believe I'm a princess when I was making that post because I was afraid people might think I have something similar to middle schooler 2nd year syndrome, and also because I wasn't as confident back then as I am now in the theory. So I just said I wouldn't be surprised if I could speak the language and visited there a lot instead. But it makes sense given what I know about myself and the experiences + interactions I've had here on Earth. I don't want to go into too much detail about what I plan to add, but there will be two more parts to Ocean Coast. These will be optional areas to explore. There won't be any big sidequests with rewards since marbles, legendaries, and everything else is pretty much already covered. But there will still be fun things to see, do, and learn!

Star People Society!... WHAT?! Pokemon Spork!
Ice Cream Sand Witch replied to J-Awesome_One's topic in Fan-game Exposé
I do kind of regret that I couldn't include the girl mentioned in ICSW's dream journal and the Data Vault in Spork. I felt like there wasn't really an appropriate time or place to introduce her in Spork considering her whereabouts, so she's mentioned a few times but just as a background detail in other characters' backstories; and I did think it'd be neat to be able to meet and battle her. But that's something that'll be left to interpretation/imagination, and I apologize for that ^^; Spork was inspired by Reborn in some ways, so I don't think it's strange that it gives you Reborn vibes!- 30 replies

Spork and Delicia's Delicious Dreamland are the only games I plan to make, though I do have an expansion for Ocean Coast planned in the next reupload, which I'll detail in a post in the thread coming soon!- 30 replies

Star People Society!... WHAT?! Pokemon Spork!
Ice Cream Sand Witch replied to J-Awesome_One's topic in Fan-game Exposé
That's fine! There's a lot in the Data Vault, and I didn't really expect many people to read it all in one go (honestly, I was worried it'd be so much that people wouldn't even want to read it at all). I've always thought it was neat to learn about what was originally planned but ended up being changed in games. That's why I included it, and I'm happy to know that others like learning about that kind of trivia too!- 30 replies

Spork has the same shiny chance as Reborn and Rejuvenation For Pokemon that evolve through trade in the official games: Link Stone For Pokemon that evolve through trade + held item: you need to use the item on them like an evolution stone. For example Slowpoke evolves into Slowking when you use a King's Rock on it

Star People Society!... WHAT?! Pokemon Spork!
Ice Cream Sand Witch replied to J-Awesome_One's topic in Fan-game Exposé
I'm happy you enjoyed the game! Although I didn't post in the thread I did keep up with it. I really enjoy when people make playthroughs like this because it's fun seeing what everyone's experience is like and what their thoughts are. I actually did want to post once. You said that you started just posting videos and didn't do the written thoughts in the thread anymore because you felt you weren't saying much and were forcing yourself. But I did enjoy reading those (but also respect your decision; it's not healthy to force yourself to do something).- 30 replies

There's been thunderstorms almost every day here for the past month or so, but I don't mind because I love this kind of weather!
