[Super Game Boy] Pokemon Generation 1 MSU1

Unfortunately this pack doesn't seem to be normalized to -12dB yet, so it completely drowns out both SNES and GB sounds.

We have an easy tool do adjust the volume in seconds:

Ooh, awesome! I'll try that ^^

Sorry for anyone who was waiting, been kinda busy with college lately

I wanted to get a release out and hopefully publish it on the database/showcase/whatever and kinda move on with it lol

Uploading the anime PCM pack later, then start working on Yellow, Rouge/Bleue

@Brutapode89 - Managed to port the MSU1 patch over to pokered-fr. Again, it wasn't hard - but it was pretty tedious lol

I should be done with R/B now and I can move on to Yellow and G/S, will post this on the DB soon (gotta record some gameplay first)

I think Pokemon Yellow should be a separate entry since it has some new songs, and it's not a pair of games that got released together like R/B - I'll still be posting stuff on here though.

That sounds great

As for database release, I'd ask to not spam all 5 versions in a thread... you could to it like in Super Star Wars:
https://www.zeldix.net/t1672-super-star-wars-trilogy

Or what I personally find better, we simply open a new forum like Zelda or megaman:
https://www.zeldix.net/f54-zelda
https://www.zeldix.net/f52-mega-man

What do you think?

What do you think?

That's the plain. The games will be put together in 2 different Database Page.

Pokemon Generation I
Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow

Pokemon Generation II
Gold and Silver

I think one forum below rpg? is good enough (without dividing further in generation1,2)

Pokemon.... green?  

Edit:
Here you go Zumi
https://www.zeldix.net/f46-pokemon-sgb
You can already post red/blue inside if you want

Yooooo that's really cool, thanks!!!

Will be posting there in a bit!

Yay, congratulations
I made a small edit note to the pcm set since it is named to red only (I know you also wrote it below the general notes, but I thought it is good to place it there already, too).

Are you also going to make a green version? It looks like pokemon covers all rainbow colors and more

Conn wrote:Are you also going to make a green version?

Dunno about that actually

Like you said, this modification is pretty intensive so I'd need a disassembly, and I don't think there is one for Green yet (it's also JP-only)

I don't know if I could even manage a patch for it *while* also letting the music play on Game Boy to be honest

I've taken a look at Green before, and there is so little free space left - I'd have to expand the ROM to do anything lmao

If it was only expansion this is not much a problem, qwertymodo and I did it already for FFA. Difficult is only switching the ROM banks...

But what about this idea, here's a patch turning blue into green:
https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/876/
Maybe it's possible to add msu1 to this patch so you'd have sort of a green version? But as we both say, your changes are immense and I'd think this patch also has intense changes so making them compatible may turn out as "life task" as well

Pokemon Green is Japanese only game.

In Japan. Pokemon Red and Green are the first Pokemon game ever made. Pokemon Blue was a updated version of Pokemon Red and Green with Bugs fixes and Sprites update.

Pokemon Red and Blue the one we got in North America and other regions. It the same version as Pokemon Blue in Japan. But it still required both Pokemon Red and Blue with Link Cable in order to complete Pokedex.

Yes, it is complex lol. I never played even one pokemon, so I am not the guy to talk with. It is amazing that Zumi makes much progress with yellow, gold silver (after red and blue are now released)

I think there is no avail of adding msu1 to "original green" since it is japanese only, and as far I read, the translations failed due to limited characters. So my above suggestion, to make a green msu1 version out of the restore green patch from romhacking (which takes the blue as base rom), would be imo the best way to go - also since the blue is completely disassembled and msu already inserted.

This is only how I understand the issue and I leave it up to Zumi to estimate if and if yes, which way is goable (since he's the guy with the work load ).

Conn Why not move Pokemon (SGB) Forum Folder to Main MSU1 Hacks Database?

There are Pokemon Spin-off games that are not RPG like Pokemon Pinball and Pokemon Trading Card Game.

I dont want to push anything, I think it is amazing we got pokemon red/blue msu-1, but you have any plans to see silver/gold msu-1 Zumi? I am just curious. And by the way, congrats and red/blue finish! I will have to play through it and help you find any potential bugs.

I like to keep the order by genre. I also moved the complete megaman thread into Jump 'n Gun and distangled Fighting for SF and others. I keep Zelda only as seperate forum (and not move it into RPG) since it already has subforums.
I would also not like to have Dr. Mario in a Super Mario World section or so since this is a strategy and not a jump 'n run.

Thanks! I'm currently trying to port Yellow to MSU1, then I'll take a look at Pokemon Gold & Silver
Unfortunately only English stuff for Yellow

(damn why are the regular emojis rendered as huge png's? lmao)

Ok awesome Zumi!

Alright, here's what I got - I'm done for the night lol

Just use the PCM pack for R/B for now, just renamed to pokemon_yellow_msu1-*.pcm

The Yellow intro track included here isn't the fanmade LGPE-style one ABOHiccups included, but it sounds close to it - it's a work in progress version by a cool dude who goes by Kapp. I chose this because it syncs better

Pokemon Yellow Bug Report!

• Delay Tracks at Wild Pokemon Battle and Wild Pokemon Victory.
  
• Pokemon Theme is still playing after load a Save File.
  

Hi guys. News?

Sorry for the wait, got a little too busy there

Attempts to fix the reported bugs, as well as a bug with the title screen fading out (Works well on SGB - but the GB version has a harsher fading out now, I'll have to fix this in a later release :/)

Too lazy to provide the extra PCM track, look in the 2020-11-09 folder :p

Might probably change it back to the other fanmade one but sped up a little, idk.

Does anyone have Completed Save File of Pokemon Yellow (USA English Version) with Surfing Pikachu unlocked?

The save files I've found on the internet are completely garbage and screwed up glitches.

I have a Save File saved at Mt. Moon right before Team Rocket (Jessie and James) show up.

And will be the french version of Pokémon Yellow ready?

This has already been addressed.

Relikk wrote:This has already been addressed.

Not unless there is a disassembly of French Yellow

(and the time needed to port it in the first place, lol)

ABOhiccups wrote:The save files I've found on the internet are completely garbage and screwed up glitches.

Oof, if it was a vanilla save then I probably forgot to make it force-load the map headers like I did with R/B

Other than that, any other bugs to be found? (and I haven't tested Surfing Pikachu either)
