Pokemon Gen 1 remake - Alexsani - 08-14-2010
"Pokemon generation 1 remake?" you ask.
"That has already been done! Look at FireRed and LeafGreen!"
"But," I reply, "it wasn't remade the way I wanted it to be."
So what is this n00b's first post on these forums about?
Simple. I wish to recolor and vamp up the old generation sprites to the color palettes of the newer games.
"Oh boy, another of these guys... Just starting a project and leaving it to rust, never to actually get anything done."
Not true. You vastly underestimate this 19 year-old's sense of nostalgia. In fact, I have already begun.
Here is the wip for the in battle Pokemon sprites:

throw animation (keep in mind it will be sliding, so despite minor mistakes, it may be fine. [AKA I don't feel like fixing it right now, but it is not out of the question])

a walking sprite for our hero:

EDIT: forgot the partysprites:

There are many mechanics that have to be considered, as in I will have to change the bag system, the old one was bad. Also, shininess, holding, etc need some thought before I make a decision.
I intend to code it myself, no ROM editing. I am a computer science student at a university, and I could definitely use the practice. What do you guys think?

this looks really nice, do you need any help with the sprites?
RE: Pokemon Gen 1 remake - Alexsani - 08-16-2010
At the moment, I would like to continue doing the 56x56 sprites myself, and have been going back and reshading the ones I started with, now that I am understanding color theory and how nintendo shades their newer sprites now.
HOWEVER, the partysprites (16x16, I believe) are tedious (to do in addition to all of the battle sprites). I am using the old GSC sprites as bases where possible (note caterpie, pidgey, and the starters). I am using the gen 3 remake sprites for color reference (FR/LG). I would love help on these.
I will probably take the Gen 2 sprites and recolor them for the backsprites, since it was so much work to up-resolution the backsprite for the trainer.
After I get some more done to show what I am going for, help with overworld sprites would be awesome, but right now, I want to try and establish the style for those before getting butthurt over someone trying to help...
Anything you have in mind?
If I get good enough/have enough time, I would like to animate them, similar to how crystal did theirs, but first things first, and I am not sure of it.
EDIT: noticing how wordy I just was, a tl;dr version:
Battle sprites: no
Overworld sprites: not yet
Party sprites: yes.
and if anyone has experience with Haaf's game engine, feel free to offer some pointers...

the only problem I see with this is that the hero is using the frlg design, and not the design from the original game or ash.

I would be glad to change it if I had proper reference...
The FR/LG design is just what I had on me.
...and found this thanks to google:

Shouldn't Blastoise's lower jaw be the same color as the front of its shell?

It should.
I would also be honored if you would join team GRP. There's a link in my sig.
RE: Pokemon Gen 1 remake - Alexsani - 08-16-2010
craaaaap.
Oh well, I was in the middle of changing those sprites' shading anyway. See anymore errors, feel free to point them out!
also, on the subject of those forums... I may try posting some stuff there (particularly after I really have some stuff to show), but I am looking towards feedback, encouragement, and help (need somewhere a little more populated).

Trainer's backpack changes size in that throwing motion
RE: Pokemon Gen 1 remake - Locked Achievement - 08-19-2010
Whats up with Squirtles face? Otherwise these sprites are great
RE: Pokemon Gen 1 remake - Gors - 08-19-2010
well, they're just revamps from the original gameboy graphics

nothing, that's how it looked in the original
the mouth is just red so it looks a bit awkward, but that's how it's supposed to look

This, and I don't see the point seeing the first gen has already been remade.
Although, Pokemon HD wouldn't be a bad idea.

Hm, wow. o-o Are you still working on this?
