Write thirty pages, 12 font, single spaced. ^.^ Yes I'm that mean.

look around on the three sites I suggested. There are tons of people making the exact thing you want, and only ask for credit.

Actually I hate 1337\. That's why I used a translator. I said write a thesis in it.

I have ADD, I've forgotten nearly as much of my class lectures as the teachers have taught. Well I suppose it would have helped if I hadn't been drawing pictures instead of taking notes… I can't help it that the terrible doodles I was doing were more interesting than the teachers... I'm not a crazy person I only watch myself on TV.

I don't know if you can write a whole thesis in 1337 then maybe you can have the 1337 prize as well.

So I'd say he wins. Because in the end, that's what noobs do on any forum, annoy people.

lol, I googled 1337 translator.

lol it would seem that pokemon wins .

Well that was the conflict of the name. I've sat and thought about it. I could stick with the crazy idea I had. Pokemon held the first real civilization, it was more advanced that anything we could imagine. That is until humans came on the scene and ruined it all. This game takes place before humanity exists. For the time being I'll try and recreate a pokemon world that is close to the games, but I want to expand on it. The first real region you will see in the game will be Kanto, although the first place you see is the starting town in Sinoh. I haven't memorized the maps in the last two generations of games. As you begin the game you are Lucas or Dawn, depending on what gender you pick. when you go down stairs your mom tells you about Professor Ronin wanting you to explore some ruins. You traverse an area south of that town(this is why this is different from the main games) As you go further into the ruins you discover that this area has no pokemon in it, and eventually stumble on a room with a portal similar to a black hole. You are sucked into the portal and when you wake up you are in a small clearing outside of Pallet town. The only difference is that there are no humans and you are a pokemon. I'm not sure what pokemon you will be. if I can script it so you can choose one of the three starters from kanto then I may very well do that; though, I might also come up for a pokemon-esk name for the decoy sprite and let you be that. The pokemon world in this game consists of the four main regions from the games and a special region of my design. I decided that since there are only one of each legendary none of them will be playable characters. I've been thinking about an evolution system that might work, but if all else fails I could do a sprite change on level up as well as a class advancement. The classes are another thing that set this game apart from real pokemon games, They are very .hack or Final Fantasy. Also some of the skills and items in the games will pay homage to some of my favorite games and animes. **Update**: Robin has taken an interest in the game, and with a little bribing is willing to help me and advise me on what to do. I'll still need all the help I can get though. Sean if you are good at scripting I can use some help on that. Robin is going to have a lot of stuff to do as it is. I've been digging around on the net and found someone working on a custom Diamond/Pearl tile set so I'll slowly be replacing what I have now with that. Robin is willing to going to make a lot of engine source edits, which will cover my gui problems. I got in touch with one of his friends on robin's referal and hopefully they will also take an interest in the game. As of now Pokemon: Origins is a full swing project. Current staff: kerii- Project head, lead designer Sean-Scripter Vaughands (xtremeworlds)-scripter Robin- Engine editer / scripter / GOD hopfulls- If I can get Robin's friend Magdreamer interested we might just have a top nauch artist on the team. I'll need mappers latter, as well as beta testers.

Well the name was kinda up in the air, some proof of that is that I used it in my photoshop gui design. I kind of thought it sounded nice.

I can give you ideas out the wazoo if you tell me about the game and story.

So you can clearly see that I whipped out the Photoshop last night and made my avi. I found a pretty interesting site with some good tutorials. It will take me forever and a day to get the sprites into the game. I might be willing to pay a programmer but I'll have to wait until the first to know if I have the money to spare. If I do then everyone who helps will be on a small salary. Paypal for the win. Updates: Sean says he'll help with the gui when he has the time, he's pretty busy with other stuff, so I guess I'll still be doing a lot by myself. If I can find a programmer I'll be as happy as you can get. Also unless anyone dislikes it The name of the game will be Pokemon: Origins.

i suggest you dig around some of the big pokemon sites. The spriter's resource, pokemonelite2000, The Pokemon community are all good ones. There are tons of people trying to make pokemon games, you just need to look. Personally the fact that everyone is trying to make a pokemon mmo is why I'm making mine so unique.

26 and 27 should be 1 and 2.

I'm glad you added me. I'll try and catch you when I'm online. I have a billion ideas but not much know how on how to implement them.

I'll stick to what I told Sean. I will not continue this idiocy by replying to your posts. I am only posting to acknowledge that I read them.

You people need lives. He admitted that he made a mistake. I'd say that after the first two flames this thread should have been closed. Flaming shouldn't be tolerated, and if it is then you have a very sad forum. He shouldn't have plagiarized, but you are twice as immature and possibly just as wrong he is for flaming him. Claiming work that someone else has done is not only wrong but illegal. It can screw you up pretty bad if you continue to repeat this pattern. Flaming and putting others down is a practice that is often times taken way to far. If you want to inform someone that they've done something wrong then do it in a way that doesn't put them on public display. Often times you are only viewed as a bully in most cases especially after the person has admitted that they were wrong. A perfect example of what one should do when complimented for work that isn't yours, is what I did in my recruitment thread. I get my sprites, tiles, and a lot of my graphic work from places on the internet, but I never claim it as my own. Sean and I discussed this for a few moments and this is what I told him. "So you messed up, you apologized, anyone who drags it out further isn't worth a reply post." Rank based on a post count, or reputation, is worth very little if you use it to constantly flame and mock the noobs. -wow I've been on forums far to long.

Well this is a pokemon game so it should feel like pokemon. I've told a few of my friends who hear pokemon and head for the hills about this game idea and they just smiled. I'm beginning to think that this isn't such a bad idea. My msn is [email protected] if you'll add me I'll get in touch with you on there. The menus are only a prototype. I like how the main turned out excluding the techish lettering. Those didn't didn't come out as well as I was hoping. I'm sure I'll make some better looking things as I get better with Photoshop. The tiles were found on the spriter's resource. I think I'm going to use some custom Diamond/Pearl stuff I found through google, but I'll have to resize them and get them into a proper tile set. If I decide against that I'll use a custom one that this guy I know made. Edit: Hey guys I just wanted to apologize for my grammar. I'm not sure why but over the past few months I've become very dyslexic in a lot of ways. I try to make a good effort to double check my posts for grammar and spelling, I'm glad that you guys cut me some slack about it. To answer a question that was asked of me that might be important to you guys wanting to help me with the scripting. I'm using EE2.7 and I'm working on the source edit. I'll post my in game menu design if it turns out that my friend can't, or is too lazy, to do it. I'm really unhappy with the current gui. That is why it's my main goal to complete for the time being.

Thanks. I've got one programer who is going to try and help me do some heavy engine source editing. I need someone who's really good with sadscript to help me with the more delicate stuff and I hope that you will have time to assist. I've uploaded some screens. None of them are anything permanent, but they should demonstrate that I'm actively working on things.The first is a test map I did to see how the tiles would stack up. I'm debating on using D/P tiles, but that might take quite a bit of doing. I'll see if I can't get at least one pokemon sprite in there to see how they will look. The worst problem so far is how paperdolling will be done. I maanaged to get my hands on the pokemon platinum sprites so they will make the game look a little more interesting. I'm going to have to make a flash or something that would clearly explain the changing of dimensions. That's a future project. My current goals are graphics and engine editing. I'll post some engine plan shots when I have them more structured. I have a new in game menu planed out, but I need to check with my friend and see if he can code it for me. If you have any helpfull suggestions for photoshop I'm all ears.

Well it's not exactly midevil, it depends on how I can work it out. I would love to redo the entire tile sheet and even have full paperdoll. I'm going to have a lot of problems with the graphics as long as I can't get a good artist. I can do my own custom GUI, I've started on it, I'll post some screens as soon as I get the moment. I might shift the time frame around depending on whether or not I can make a good excuse. The inclusion of magic might be a great reason.

Prologue: As the game begins you are one of the hero's from the last set of Pokemon games. That is you are Lucas if you choose to be male and Dawn if you choose to be female. After gathering some information from the Npc's around the now expanded Twin Leaf town you traverse Route 231 where you discover that not only are they no Pokemon in the area, but also some peculiar ruins. When you reach the inner most room of the dungeon you are sucked into a mysterious vortex. You awake in a clearing outside of Pallet town, except now you are a Pokemon and there are no people to be found. It is my hope that the game will have a loose main story so that we may concentrate on the more important aspects of it being a mmorpg. I'll introduce new aspects of the game's story through quests. The World(in regional order) Kanto The Sevii Islands Johto The Orange Islands The Whirl Islands Hoen Battle Frontier I Sinoh Battle Frontier II Toukai There will also be an assortment of islands that quests will take place on, as well as some hidden areas that players will have to discover on their own. I'm working on the Website as We speak, A good friend gave me a link to a free web hosting site. As soon as I can get that up and going I'll post it. If you are any good at that type of thing let me know. I'll continue to post screen shots as the thread gets longer, and I do them, but I'll also start posting them in this post as well.
