Really glad to see someone interested, if you want to you could test out the translation for me as I don't have much time to actually play through the translation to check for spelling mistakes and such. All you would have to do is take a screenshot everytime you encounter a spelling mistake, then I'll know where to find the mistake. I have played through the entire game in Japanese and the translation half way through the blue tower, im gonna make time for it soon though but balancing time between translating two games and play testing time is kinda messy.

I'll do that (I'll ignore obvious abbreviations), also I'm playing it using emumaster for my PSP and so far I haven't run into any issues.

I tried to play on PSP using gpSP 3.4 Test 3 Build 152 but the game frezzes before entering the first battle.

Version 3.2 seems to work fine and I can enter the battles, but I only played for a few minutes.

Anyone have more information about the game compatibility with emulators?

I use the same, and the only issue I've ran into so far was one time the random battle animation played, but no battle started, I could walk through everything, couldn't go through doors/entrances, and I couldn't talk to any of the npc's.

Only legit shiny I ever caught was a crabby which I fished up in the cerulean gym on gold. I also found and accidentally killed another shiny in crystal, I can't remember what pokemon it was.

Same here.

P.S. those "shiny spots" are way too tempting, I don't know wether I love you or hate for them.

I have submitted the final release to the board... the game is done... thanks everyone for the help

the game is completely playable with all the pokemon obtainable no major game ending glitches and no pokemon left out (i missed 2 in the previous release)

here is a link to the players guide I made, it is in the .rar file once the 1.21 gets updated here... but if your impatient just download it from the link below...
http://ultravioletversion.yolasite.com/resources/Pokemon%20-%20Ultra%20Violet%20%281.21%29%20Official%20Players%20Guide.rar

enjoy

I just want to point out that the game_config.txt included with the rar has an error:

What you have in it:

# Pokemon - Ultra Violet(1.21) LSA
game_name = ULTRA VIOLET
game_code = PUVV
vender_code = 01
idle_loop_eliminate_target = 080008c6
flash_rom_type = 128KB

What the game_code is as read from the rom: BPRE

You didn't change the game_code to PUVV (at least according to gbata and vba).

Dude, why do type like that? It makes you look retarded.

I don't think he speaks english, and truth be told I wish he'd at least use google translate cause then at least it wouldn't hurt trying to read his posts. (It's painful, very painful)

Yeah, beta 4 has truly taken me a while, but that's what happens when you start doing this properly (all the other releases were too rushed really). Sorry, you won't love me forever, I won't be making it a possibility to get Larvitar in the beginning of the game.
You're stuck with something even more special.

I don't blame you, I've been using him as my starter in Ultra Violet and he's an absolute tank that early in the game, the trade-off is, he takes forever to level up.

C'mon guys! Surely we've got some pokemon/RPG fans around here!

Well, I'll just keep the thread going on myself. *It's not like I need any feedback from the people around here, but it would be nice to keep the thread running.

Anyway, two new screenshots today:



I've basically built a thing called "Battle Room" in the upper room of every PC. You may choose a training mode and you're made to fight against a randomly picked trainer of that mode (there are 5 possibilities, it chooses one of them). After you win, you receive Battle Points (BP) depending on how good the opponent was and you can change those Battle Points into certain gifts (pokemon and items mostly, there is one special case around there too).

And, I know the implementation is very similar to the Gold Saucer Battle Arena from FF7, but I don't really care. That is actually where I picked the idea behind this Battle Room too. And since some people tend to get underleveled during the gameplay, they may come here to train instead of walking around hours and hours in bushes (that was actually the main idea behind starting to build this thing. But I happened to add more and more features in it, and so, here we are!).

I'd post more feedback, but I have no complaints so far and I suck at putting stuff into words when I like it.
The Battle Room sound's interesting.

And if you NEED any complaints, I'd say the fact that we're still waiting for the next beta(?) release,LOL.
Also, I will love you forever if you can let me pick Larvitar as my starter, even more so if shiny?

It debatable, but I find the localized names are terrible.

This. They're very awkward to read.

The PSP version is windowed rather than being expanded to take advantage of the wider screen. It's also, to my knowledge anyway, functionally and aesthetically no different from the Saturn version. On top of this, the Saturn version is probably more accessible thanks to the relatively advanced state of Saturn emulation, and is in my opinion preferable simply by virtue of not being on a handheld.

If someone wants to use my translation for a PSP version, that would be fine, but I'm much more enthusiastic about getting the Saturn version done.

Actually the original source code had been lost, so they opted to run the saturn version in an emulator on the PSP, this is also the reason that no company wants to officially localize it, it would just be too much work and money to do without the source code.

do I just put that in a .txt file and add it with the rar? (none of my emus use this type of file)

just note in the readme to add that to an emulators/flashcarts "game_config.txt" file if it has one, if it doesn't have one then it's most likely not compatible with it, and then the only way to fix the problem becomes to change the header back to the fire red header.
By the way, this is the standard fire red game_config entry:

# Pokemon: Fire Red (E/U)
game_name = POKEMON FIRE
game_code = BPRE
vender_code = 01
idle_loop_eliminate_target = 080008c6
flash_rom_type = 128KB


All PSP emulators, a number of GBA flashcarts, and almost all mobile emulators use this file.

What's the byte count supposed to be?  None of the ROM's I tried worked with the patch.

He doesn't say it in the readme but you have to use a headerless rom, to add or remove  a header (and find out if the rom has one or not) get nsrt which can be found on this very site.

On the Header issue, if your using an emulator or flashcart that can use a "game_config.txt" file than add this to it:

# Pokemon - Ultra Violet
game_name = ULTRA VIOLET
game_code = BPRE
vender_code = 01
idle_loop_eliminate_target = 080008c6
flash_rom_type = 128KB

But yah, you might want to include this in the readme so long as you have an edited-header on there, and alternatively you could make an edited and unedited header version available for people who this method isn't available for.

Because this is a common complaint I'll release an optional patch that makes walking on the map faster and reduces the encounter rate (on the map). In the meantime, setting 0xd278 to 0x02 and 0xda64 to 0x0a will achieve just that. Seems to work fine, but be aware that I haven't thoroughly tested it.

I was wondering about the status of this?

I am working on an update with some sort of event for Mew... I love Mew I want him to be exclusive (1 per game)
I like the idea of having him pop out of the truck lol cause of all the rumors about it... good stuff. and its missable... if you dont bother to check.

"And its missable... if you don't trade for a pokemon with cut rather then getting the HM from the Captain. (or alternatively losing a battle on the SS Anne, and losing half your money, to get sent to the pokemon center. [or glitching your way back into the SS Annes area using the surf glitch.])."
I fixed that for you.
Also, someone should make surfing pikachu available in yellow without the need of pokemon stadium.
