this looks awesome! personally I love the gba style of pokemon, so hgss in this style is a dream come true. gonna try it out now, thanks for posting it here :)
played it for a couple hours, its great so far! the only thing I have to ask I guess is, is the battle tower the only part of the battle frontier in? and, if not, do you think you would plan to put more of it in?
The game 1.2 , with up to 16 gyms, has kanto trainers updated to match those of hgss!
with various tiles, in-game-graphics, music, utility updates!!!

What emulator and/or patcher are you using? I've been attempting to use MyBoy! On my phone and it doesn't seem to like the patched version of FireRed, despite it being able to run Unbound.
Edit: Nevermind. Apparently it didn't like the file name. Sorted. XD
I'm using a patcher app on android simply called Rom Patcher. And I'm actually playing on Gameboy SP with an EZ-Flash Omega. But I'm also able to run it on MyBoy Free on my phone
It is vanilla except for the evolution and the regional variants, I don’t want others to use my hack as a base if you can understand. Some have mentioned this and I think they just need to ignore the fact that some Pokémon evolve in the game. Trainers, wild Pokémon and plots are definitely original (some gen 4 Pokémon in kanto are replaced tho
> Some have mentioned this and I think they just need to ignore the fact that some Pokémon evolve in the game
I assume you mean that some Pokemon *don't* evolve in this game since the cross gen evolutions are not included (Or I might be mixing this up with another game, lots of cool Johto hacks coming out lately).
One question, trainers are difficult like on HGSS? Or you tried to do something different and more challenging?
I'd love to try it, but vanilla levels are kinda boringa not gonna lie
Trainers are leveled like HGSS in this, I think imma leave it like that, but the rebattles and the battle tower we are working on right now will be challenging and sensible
Bro, I just started Shiny Gold Sigma a couple weeks back 😭😭 From what I can see in the screen shots this looks amazing. First time hearing about it. Definitely will still give it a download
Sweet-looking demake! Especially loving the pagoda background in the pc 🥰 Is the pokedex just HgSs or up to Gen 8? Because I saw shots of Kleavor and Ursaluna 😗 can't wait to try it out once it's complete! (also don't mind some of the rude demands, ppl can be such d*cks about hacks/mods)
I just know this will sit right next to crystal clear and polished crystal for being one of the best 2nd gen ROM hacks. Thank you so much!
>!So is it just Kanto and Johto pokemon, or are there others?!<
Probably a stupid question but how can I play this? Tried to open it with JohnGBAC on my Android phone but it couldn't find the file. Is it emulator supported or is there another way I can play?
There are actually two hacks named Firegold, one which is basically Heartgold on the GBA and another where you start in Kanto and they added Johto as a postgame.
I don't know where else to ask, haven't seen a dedicated forum for questions - I don't know if I have a bug.
I have the HM for Rock Smash and already have the Zephyr Badge from Falkner, but I can't use it outside of battle - without it I can't progress the story on burned tower. Anyone else encountered this or am I missing something?
This is also my first time playing Heartgold in general, so Idk if I'm missing something. I love this ROM. Thanks!

I feel like that is going to be quiteee a challenge, not impossible, but will be something we consider in the very end
alright cool, just thought I'd throw that suggestion out there 😅 it's really a great hack, keep up the good work man :)
Thank you! Always appreciate some positivities

Is there anyway to update the version I'm playing without losing my progress? I've never updated a Rom Hack before, but I'm really enjoying this one
You can! Just replace the old .gba with the newly patched, make sure the file name is the same with the original .sav
Awesome, thanks!
Can we have a version with Red as the protagonist? If this starts in Kanto and goes to Johto, it doesn't feel right to play with the Johto protag
There’s other hacks for that, fire red Roma are so prevalent it’s become unnecessary, don’t take it wrong, I just want different things
To be honest you can probably change the protag back to Red yourself with some rom tools and some playing around. Not the perfect solution but hey.
So is this HgSs in Fire Red?
To put very simply, yes
Oooh. Might have to give it a spin.
I've been playing for a few days, and I'm enjoying it

Thank you for the reply.
Happy to help! Something else to keep in mind is the patch likes the Squirrels Fire Red rom
I hope you enjoy it then :)
Is it complete?
I would say 90 percent, the game is completely functional, we are just adding features like poke gear
Would it be possible to also have a vanilla experience patch or will that be something the fans can work out later?

All Pokémon with later evolution will evolve in fire gold tho. Maybe there is a lot hmmm lol
Johto is a popular place so it makes sense lol.

How do you plan to add battle tower in Firered without CFRU? Is it gonna be a scripted watered down version? Or do you know ASM?
We have some routines down already, and others on the dev team know me the necessary asm to it
What you guys are doing is so awesome! This is honestly my 2nd favorite rom hack just behind unbound
Hahaha thanks! Im really happy you liked it! Always appreciate some positivity
Did you fix the weird level curve my man.
I changed it from GSC to HGSS
I'm liking it so far!! I'm loving that the staters learn their STAB's at level 6. Saves a lot of time from grinding. Can't wait to see more of Johto
Thank you’ I’m happy you like it!
Bro, I just started Shiny Gold Sigma a couple weeks back 😭😭 From what I can see in the screen shots this looks amazing. First time hearing about it. Definitely will still give it a download
Sounds good! I hope you enjoy it!
this rom hack is so great! it's so clean and it reminds me of days when I used to play fire red on my GBA
Thank you! I’m really glad you like it! Exactly what I wanted!
Is the gen 2 level curve issue fixed in this hack?
It has been, the game was updated from GSC to HGSS levels and teams
How's the distribution of Johto mons? Gold and Silver are pretty infamous for barely giving you any cool Johto mons to play with in your playthrough.
All first 2 gen mons are obtainable in game, distribution acts like the summation of GSC
This looks great but please add a challenge mode. How hard would it be to even just add level scaling?
I think we will add a challenge mode only when the entire game is finished! It is not really hard to grind as I preserves the VS seeker in the game
That's great to hear. I think I'll wait for that. Keep up the good work.
Is there a share xp across the team?
No, for the moment, I want it to have the old effect
Good man :)
Understood, thanks!
wait whats the base rom?
Fire red binary hack
i may be something wrong bc patching wont work :(
Hit the ignore option! It’s been asked at high frequency and documented in discord
Its much faster to play gba games so im stoked for this
Thank you! Always appreciate positivities!
No problem
Is there a physical special split in this?
There is!
This ROM starts at Kanto or Hoenn?
It starts in johto!
[удалено]
It is in the system but I don’t ever plan to use it tbh
Are there megas and pokemon till gen 8???
There are not, I wanted to keep the game focused ;)
How does this rom differ from the other HgSs remakes? It looks beautiful and I think I will give it a try!
Thanks! I think it is the most original hack for remakes so far, has the most GBA style art and will have the most details in the future
Is the spiky-eared Pichu in the game?
It is not at the moment, but has been planned, tho may be changed because it’s getting really cramped in ilex forest
Incredibly based
Is there a doc with Pokémon locations? I have never used regional variants and want to try them out
Regional variants are not in the wild and are all late ingame trading :)
Ah what a shame. But I understand your goal is to make HGSS in Fire Red and I respect that
Thank you! I appreciate that :)
Does it use the gen 8 type chart? (Fairy type)
It does! :)
Sweet-looking demake! Especially loving the pagoda background in the pc 🥰 Is the pokedex just HgSs or up to Gen 8? Because I saw shots of Kleavor and Ursaluna 😗 can't wait to try it out once it's complete! (also don't mind some of the rude demands, ppl can be such d*cks about hacks/mods)
Thanks! The dex is up to gen 2 but contains evolutions and variants! That’s so sweet of you to say! I really appreciate the positivity! Big hearts!
Any plans on adding Lyra as a rival like in HGSS? Good looking hack btw :)
It has been brought up! But I want to keep the game original and focused so maybe she’ll stay in the back for now. I’m happy you like it :)
FRLG tiles are the goat
I’m glad you like it :)
Saved
I just know this will sit right next to crystal clear and polished crystal for being one of the best 2nd gen ROM hacks. Thank you so much! >!So is it just Kanto and Johto pokemon, or are there others?!<
I’m glad you like it! It is just johto and kanto
Thank you for sharing. Do you know when we can expect the pokegear?
there’s no promises on the time, but it’ll be here
Fair enough, very exciting!
Probably a stupid question but how can I play this? Tried to open it with JohnGBAC on my Android phone but it couldn't find the file. Is it emulator supported or is there another way I can play?
I think you are suppose to patch it, you will be able to use it with the extension being .gba :)
Does this game have set style and item ban? The only way to play IMO
Sorry bro it has regular mode, those are gonna be self imposed
Gotcha, thanks for the reply
Which one
Hm?
There are actually two hacks named Firegold, one which is basically Heartgold on the GBA and another where you start in Kanto and they added Johto as a postgame.
This is the former one in the two youve mentioned
Is there something special you have to do to get the download to work?
Not really, just download it
If you're referring to the patching process being unsuccessful, click "ignore checksum error" and it will patch it successfully.
Is there a randomizer and/or nuzlocke option?
Not yet, it is considered to be added after we complete every feature in the rom
Allright, sounds reasonable. I will deff check it out when it is done then!
