Demo for Explorers of Death !

Written by FireFox6 on the SkyTemple Discord server

Try the Explorers of Death romhack out for yourself, for the low price of free!!

Disclamer: The full romhack will be free too of course, haha

Be sure to contact me if you find any undiscovered glitches, though I think I've got them fixed (except for the one that is mentioned in the readme file)

(It would also be really cool if someone could play this on real hardware and send pictures of it somewhere I can see)

posted later by FireFox6 on the same server

Hi everyone, we have an updated demo! There is a change log in the readme file so you can see what's been changed and added since the last version! The overall story content is still the same length, though.

And another update, by FireFox6, this time on the EOD server

This minor update fixes some glitches, but has no new content. Look through the included readme file for more details.

SkyTemple Changes

Version 1.2.5 was released, containing a fix for the assistant (see below).

Fixes

  • Commited by Parakoopa: "Fixed the assistant that opens the first time when opening the Script Engine Debugger not being closeable when using a language other than English." (by removing it)
  • Commited by Irdkwia: A fix was made, so the "MoveShortcuts" patch correctly apply the dependant patch first.

Changes

  • Commited by Irdkwia: "Try to fix lag (attempt 1/1000000)"

    Try to fix lag caused by ExternalizeWazaFile patch.

    Don't forget to apply the ExpandPokeList patch again after ExternalizeWazaFile.

    If you have some information about where the lag/potential glitches are, please tell me.

  • Commited by Irdkwia: "Improve ATUPX and Move Stats Display patches"
    • ASM Code Refactor for the ATUPX patch.
    • Minor changes to Move Stats Display (mostly refactor).
