Introducing Expressive Backgrounds!

[AphexCubed @AphexCubed]

Hey again! Here's a sneak peek at an upcoming new mechanic for Redux v2, the pool system!

Full details of this optional mechanic can be found on this Reddit post:

It's been a little while, here's another teaser for v2!

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@army1_x @AphexCubed @QuestSpec Snow is not implemented, but hail will grant Ice-type Pokémon a 50% boost to the Defense stat.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@uniquatious @AphexCubed @Drayano60 @QuestSpec Yes, it will be.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@Deloof_teg_orb @AphexCubed @QuestSpec If you see a price tag, it's definitely not us!

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@Mysgelatin @AphexCubed @gingy1000 @QuestSpec We have no plans to add new Pokémon or forms.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@Prankbox4541 @AphexCubed @QuestSpec In time, we'll release more information on the AI changes. But for now, yes, the AI may decide to switch more frequently, especially when it's in a clearly disadvantageous state.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@Realtimeless1 @AphexCubed @QuestSpec No moves have been replaced!

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@Realtimeless1 @AphexCubed @QuestSpec We have a custom version of PKHeX that will be released along with the release of the main game.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@98tp1 @AphexCubed @QuestSpec Internally it's called "ParagonLite", and it's what we use to modify the ROM's machine code using custom assemblies.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@YuChunHsieh @AphexCubed @QuestSpec We have a custom version PKHeX that will be releasing alongside the main release.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@glacialkraken @AphexCubed @QuestSpec No moves, abilities, or items are being replaced.

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@OverClockLasor @JKSully313 @AphexCubed @Drayano60 @QuestSpec That's outside of my knowledge pool, unfortunately!

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@JKSully313 @OverClockLasor @AphexCubed @Drayano60 @QuestSpec If this was real a game being built from the ground up, I'd use C++. However, this project is just a bunch of modifications to existing machine code, so it's nice to work close to the bare metal to maximize space. I might make a C compiler for more complex edits in the future...

[Squid @DaSquyd]

@OverClockLasor @AphexCubed @JKSully313 @Drayano60 @QuestSpec The engine, internally called "ParagonLite", is not yet user-friendly enough, in the same way something like HG-Engine is, to warrant a public release. ParagonLite uses ARM thumb assembly directly rather than compiling from a high level language like C or C++.

[AphexCubed @AphexCubed]

Surprise! I'm extremely pleased to announce Pokémon Blaze Black 2 and Volt White 2 Redux version v2.0.0!

First of all, I'd like to give a massive, massive thank you to @DaSquyd and @QuestSpec for helping with development!

[AphexCubed @AphexCubed]

Big Redux update news coming soon...👀

@Bashfluff The issue is that the code for leveling up is handled in the game code and it hasn't been done in Gen V yet to my knowledge. We always just play with 0 Exp/EV gains and use cheated rare candies to level to the cap.

Btw you can add me on Discord if you want to talk more (dasquyd)
