  1. So I recently made my own changes in Reborn, had no issue. Well one issue that was quickly resolved by another user providing me some new compiling dat file.

     

    Anyway I tried doing it in rejuv but it didn't work. No bugs as far as I can see but nothing worked.

     

    I know it processed them because I forgot a comma in one of my changes and got an error code for it. Fixed it and it was fine. But none of them took.

     

    The only thing I can think of is either: 1) the fact there was like 4 different txt files in the pbs folder. I deleted 3 of them since I didn't know why there was so many and didn't want any issues of it was reading mismagius as pure ghost in this txt but then ghost/fairy in another. Idk if maybe I should've kept them all or made the changes in all 4 txt files?

     

    Or 2) I had to get another mod like file for reborn because the compiler had issues and this helped fix it.

     

    Ok wait I just remembered something as I typed this. One of the steps I remember was uncommenting a '#' next to I think a line called pbcompiler when I did Reborn and then putting it back after. I didn't do that step. That could be why it didn't work.

     

    But does anyone know as well if those other issues are things too? Especially if I need a certain dat file to process the type changes?

  2. I got some help on discord with how to change pokemon types and stuff. i can see its working as all the type and stat changes are applied and i get no errors when loading.

     

    however whenever i attack with a damaging move or get attacked, the move fails because the targeted pokemon is not affected. the person who helped me said all they did was add items and that caused the issue as well.

     

    Does anyone know how to fix this? My first attempt failed and i didn't have a back up so i just redownloaded the game but it came already with my changes so im basically unable to ever play this game again unless someone knows what the issue is.

  3. Ok I got it working but I have a problem. Many backgrounds don't work. In the Pokemon menu it's just text on a black screen. The Pokemons Sprite is there, you can see the stats and nature etc it's just on a black background so it's hard to see.

     

    In battle however it's empty AF all you see is your Pokemon and the enemy Pokemon. I'm not sure how to fix this

  4. Is it possible to edit the game files on a computer first, then just send it to my phone? Like is it specifically an Android version or is the app just a way to read Windows files for Android.

     

    I'm asking because I have a few Sprite changes for PCs and shinies plus I wanted to have the couple mods I have. Only a couple like Sandbox or maybe debug I guess. 

  5. I'm not sure if it's allowed to ask questions here, so I'll delete this if that's the case. I've tried asking on discord several times the past couple weeks but I've always been ignored. Not complaining just explaining that I've tried elsewhere to get information.

     

    I've seen there's a mod in progress here that changes some types, among other things. I was really interested in that, however it doesn't seem like it's available yet nor is there any information on when that will be. Although some of the changes seem a bit out there for my liking, and I was wondering if anyone knew how to edit Pokemon in the game files, if that's even how you do it. I did try looking through some of them but nothing seemed like it was what I was looking for.

  6. It WAS sold by that guy but it's changed in ep 19 to be given to you by the ringmaster.

     

    It was warned that for Ep 19 you either need to be at the very very end of Ep18 or start a new game because many things were changed.

     

    Unfortunately OP you saved at an incredibly unlucky point. Your only choice is to start a new game or debug the item in. But I'm pretty sure it's against the rules to explain how to debug and even if we can, there's no telling what issue that could cause.

  7. I'm having a problem with the shard tutors too. They say I don't have shards. They worked fine in my first save that was already done with Ep18 but I just started a new save and now they don't accept the shards. Did that change in ep19 that they're cash now or is this really a bug

  8. I see this is the place to talk about this. Idk how to delete my other post, maybe because I'm on mobile? Anyway..

     

    I was gonna load one of my other saves however it says I don't have any. My first/main save is fine. But the other 3 I have do not exist. When I went back into the original ep 18 one when I tried to load saves it said it was corrupted. 

     

    I put all my save data copies in an easily accessible file. I just don't know where to put them.

     

    I think the problem is, the original ep 18 I didn't need to have it in applications so it was just in my downloads folder. But 19 required it be moved to applications. Though to my knowledge I've read that saves are always in the same location and it was able to load my main one just fine.

     

    So yeah, I guess I'm trying to figure out where to put my save files.

     

    *So I did find the folder location where all my saves are. They're all still there. Even the recent saves I've been making on the one working save. But even though they're in the same folder Reborn still says I have no other saves.

     

    **Ok!!! I had a problem! I tried seeing if I could click new game and then close to see if that would refresh something and it just deleted my only working save file!! I still have all my save files in the folder but the game doesn't recognize them nor does it allow me to click go to save folder option in the game title screen.

     

    *** Ok small update. I did figure out one issue. I was able to get the one working save back. And found a bug. Luckily I made copies of my entire save folder before this was released. I deleted the saves folder in the main library and replaced it with my copy. However it wasn't able to work in all the new saves I made. Even though they're there. So it only has one save from before I started ep19. And while doing all this I had accidentally clicked start new game. Turns out doing this is what caused the bug that deleted my only working save. So I had to replace the library folder again to get it back. So there's a bug that if you start a new game on MAC it deletes your saves. I noticed it created a new 'game.dat' file when that happened. If that means anything. 

     

    Still, idk how to get it to recognize my 3 other save files even though there all in the same location, or why it's not reading the saves I've made since starting ep19.

     

    Oh! Should add I'm on MacOS Big Sur 11.6 and my saves were all in the grand hall.

  9. I hope this is ok, I saw someone else created a topic here.

    Ehhh, not really ?

     

    I feel like picking apart the various question would just be more confusing than needed, so I'll give what I assume to be the plotline of the twins and nova.

     

    1) Shiv and Aurora are two normal persons living a mostly normal life to the exception their parents seem absent from their lives.

    2) Both of them starts discovering they have superpowers. Aurora initially hates the fact they make her an abnormality and wants get rid of them, while Shiv decides to essentially have fun with them. Becoming the champion, fuck around with the inhabitants of Addenfall, that kind of thing.

    3) Aurora tries to present her findings about her powers to a scientific comitee, gets laughed out of it, murders them and decides that actually having superpowers rules.

    Meanwhile, Shiv catches a depression for not knowing what to do with his life, since, and it turns out having superpowers doesn't actually answers that question in life.

    4) Aurora decides to pick up pokemon battling and beat shiv at it to give him something to improve over, doesn't work. Shiv decides that fucking with the people of Addenfall town and have them unearth the Onyx stone and try to exploit it's power is a logical course of action. He may or may not have outright brainwashed keegan/kuiki during this period.

    5) Shiv's depression gets worse as it turns out the Onyx stone really is a piece of useless rock. Enter Nova, who at the time is already a pawn of Darkrai(nothing about nova is elaborated prior to that point). She's got a weaker version of the twins's powers but makes up for it by being able to vampirize the twins for more power. Nova ends up getting along well enough with Shiv she actually gets him out of his depression.

    6) Nova tries to steal Aurora's powers and stabs Shiv. Shiv seemingly survive because A)powers I guess ? B) unrealistic representation of lethality of injuries in fiction. 

    7) Sometimes after that the twins become pawns of Dakrai too, unclear when it happened or how.

    8) Shiv and Nova, working as pawns of Darkrai, set up this little conflict about Ideal VS reality to bait the player. while initially entirely an act, the longer the twins spend away from the dreamscape, the more they readapt to reality being actually real, the more they actually geniunely invest themselves in it - not unlike even the most vivid dream fades out over the course of the day if you don't go out of your way to remember it.

    Aurora is doing her own thing but still a pawn of Darkrai. Maybe she was also supposed to bait the player at first with an act of "going after Nova for revenge" and ended up getting too invested in it since she does geniunely hate Nova for that night.

    9) By the time the showdown at cellia central happens, pretty much everyone is fully invested in this supposedly manufactured conflict.

    -Aurora wants to Kill Nova because A)she hurt her brother and she has Yandere tendencies toward Shiv as her dialogue with the player before batling indicates and B) she stole part of  Aurora's power, and Aurora has developed control freak tendencies that do not vibe with this.

    -Nova just wants to not fucking die 

    -Shiv doesn't exactly like Nova either but still deeply cares about her, because, she may have only entered her life to stab him and steal his powers, she geniunely helped him out of depression, which is something he's grateful for. Also he's clearly alive and kicking so it's not like the knife stab left him scarred for life. Plus it's not like the powers did much for him anyway, so he doesn't seem to majorly resent whatever Nova took from him.

     

    Depending of how you do things during cellia, Aurora can geniunely come to empathize with Shiv's POV, which shakes her further from Darkrai's influence.

    10) Right as everyone could almost go back to being regular people, Aurora is sent back to the Dreamscape where Darkrai's influence grows again and reality starts feeling like the dream again, Nova goes missing, presumably becuase Darkrai tries to kill her, while shiv goes looking for Nova by going after Team Crescent's leadership.

    11)Shiv eventually rejoins the dream because of you during the events of bountilia Island.

    12)Both twins, once again mostly under Darkrai's control, try to lure you into siding with him.

    13)Should you refuse, Darkrai tries to get rid of you too but Nova, who has apparently managed to sever ties from Darkrai's influence entirely saves your ass.

    14)which brings us to the end of the current build, with Nova free from Darkrai, Shiv still having lingering doubts because of his connection with Nova, while Aurora seems more under Darkrai's control.

     

    The nature of the Twins's superpowers are quite unclear, but from what we can gather, they're small-scale reality warpers - they can teleport, turn inanimate matter into pokemons, make them grow at an unnatural speed, open portals to the grid without the need for machines. The game initially explains it as "the twins are actually normal people lucid dreaming and bending the fake reality to their whim", but that explanation is shown to be wrong by the fact A) Aurora still has her powers in the Dreamscape, and B) that the dreamscape is the actual dream, after all. 

     

    A better explanation would be the one given by darkrai to the player towards the end - the player, as well as the twins and Nova, are conduits of energy who can freely enter and exit the dream world. I suppose this also means you can use that ability to do most of the powers they're shown to use over the course of the story if you're creative enough about it.

     

    The twins aren't actually the most super special people out there, as the honor apparently goes to the player.

    Wow thank you so much! You really took the time out to explain for me, I appreciate that so much.

     

    I understand its hard to answer a lot as were only on Episode 5, and I get the feeling were really only half way. Maybe slightly more than half way. I hope we see more about what makes us special, since the Twins clearly have borderline reality warping. So damn what could the player have?? 

     

    I'm really looking forward to seeing me. Thank you again, that was so nice of you to write out this long and thought out reply :)

  11. So I just finished Desolation, and I really loved it. But, I admit I am nowhere near as smart as most others who can pick up on everything, or who may have explored more and found some hidden lore etc, so I wanted to ask for some clarification as far as whats seen so far in game.

     

    So, the main antagonist is Darkrai (duh), and he wanted to get to Ayrith. We are initially led to believe the Dreamscape/Odis Village is the real world and Ayrith is the Dream World. However my understanding is that its the opposite. Dreamscape is, well the Dream World (I mean its in the name lol) Dakrai seems to have been trapped in some in between world. In this universe there exists special 'Dreamers' who basically seem to be Lucid Dreamers, with certain people (Twins, Nova, Lilith and MC) having even more unique abilities. (Though I'm confused on what these abilities are)

     

    To escape from his world, Darkrai needed to possess one of these Special Dreamers and have them wake up in Ayrith so he could be free. As Nova/Lilith stated everyone in Odis Village were people who were not the extra special Dreamers, just the mediocre special Dreamers. Darkrai was able to semi possess the Twins and Nova since they were in the Dreamscape which he seems to have some influence over, but not fully as he was only able to use them as puppets and not use them to escape. So this whole time the Twins and Nova were actually just Darkrai slaves manipulating us to get to where Darkrai was. Something happened that removed Darkrai's control over Nova. 

     

    Lilith was their first attempt, like MC they manipulated her life to get her close to Darkrai but she was able to resist, so they found MC instead after that. Lilith knew we were the next target, and tried to help us/prepare us. 

     

    It seems there are good/bad endings, I'm unsure of how they affect the game. Granted I assume the point is we find out in the next Episode. I followed a guide and got all the prompts. I saved Nova and refused the offer.

     

    So idk if I am understanding it all or am I missing some stuff. I also have some questions.

     

    1) I am really confused on Nova and the twins. They were all pawns from the start right? So what was that whole thing with Nova attacking Shiv and stealing Aurora's powers? Weren't they on the same team? Didn't Nova have her own abilities? What did she steal from Aurora? Why did she stab Shiv? How did he survive? Then the whole ordeal with Aurora trying to kill Nova, Shiv protecting her etc. Idk how to explain why it confuses me.

     

    2) The twins in general. I am unsure of their backstory. Darkrai created the manor for them? They are the most special? I don't even know what their powers are or how they have them.

     

    3) What were the other endings? What happens if you accept his offer? Or if you reject him but fail? Seems there is a good, neutral and bad ending?

     

    I think thats it. Sorry for asking a lot or if I'm just really dumb lmao.

  12. I'm stuck. I'm at the I think it's called Dreamscape? I talked to the library guy to help wake up Shiv and he wants me to find his books. 

     

    I found the first book, got a cutscene about some place that wasn't supposed to be there and that was it. But it doesn't let me grab the book "Some unseen force prevents you from grabbing the book." Wuuuuuuuut

     

    *Also, it's the one in the northern section, the red book.

    It has almost identical stats as regular Milotic, but its attack and special attack stat are swapped, making the Aevium counterpart a physical attacker. Some notable moves that it can learn by level up are play rough, gunk shot, and coil. 

     

    Here's a more detailed post!

     

    Nooooo i read this too late. I got a decent shiny rash one so i kept it, Why didn't I wait ;(

  14. I'm nervous to post here since it doesn't seem to get much response, but I don't see anywhere else I am allowed to ask this.

     

    I am trying to download this on Mac. I played V12 a long time ago but then forgot about it for awhile. Since I didn't get far I just decided to download the V13 and start over.

     

    I saw that note about putting it in the Applications folder. V12 didn't have that problem so I, stupidly, attempted to try it not in Applications. Nope the file is damaged. Put it in Applications and tried again. Nope still damaged. Deleted it and dropped the .zip file in applications, extracted it and tried again. Nope still damaged. Deleted it and the .zip file, redownloaded the .zip file into the Applications folder and tried again. Nope, still damaged.

     

    I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there actually something wrong with the file? Or is there some other secret Applications folder I'm not seeing?

  15. Well before I just searched for files with 'rxdata' and all those showed up.

     

    But I checked the Saved Games folder and there isn't any regular Game.rxdata but its filled with several files like Name - 0059 hours.rxdata and the name is not one I have in my current game but from like an old one a couple years ago. 

  16. I've started putting all my Reborn data into my drive so I'll have it for my next computer in case my current one craps out.

     

    I got all the main stuff with the game and audio/graphics etc. Now I'm looking for my save data, but there's like 5 different files all named the same 'Game.rxdata' plus another one called 'Game_A.rxdata' that one I assume has to be my second save game I made. But I don't know which one of the other is right? There's also these 'Game.ini' files in the same location. Not sure if those are important for my save.

     

    So I guess to repeat my title, which files do I need so I can safely have an exact copy of my save? From what I've seen here, people can just post the Game.rxdata and play someone elses file. So if thats true, how can I tell which of the 5 is correct?

  17. So this is my second run. I know which building it is, before anyone asks. I beat Radomus, am told to find 7th street by asking the gang leader. I asked him and he told me the location and to 'get my glory' but the lady is not in there. I have no idea what to do, this issue didn't happen in my last run. The only difference is I joined Team Magma in this one, (as in the problem one) and my last one I was with Aqua. Is it a different building? 

     

    **Oh and just in case, I'm on MAC and am using mods which I didn't do before. However the only ones I have active are relearn egg moves, sharedPC and item radar.

     

    ****Ok nvm it is a different building, didn't see that mentioned anywhere, and I even specifically looked for 7th street team magma and nothing. A pic was even shown the location of where it ended up being and someone responded telling OP that was wrong so idk.
