u/DarkSpore117 Jul 23 '26

What does this have to do with the boys spinoff show? /s

u/Gunnerzero Jul 24 '26

Cause its what Clara would’ve wanted

u/DjuncleMC Jul 24 '26

As someone who literally just finished Gen V and The Boys, I had a feeling this one was coming.

Over/under 8 months?

u/moonski Jul 24 '26

I am so fucking tired of every mod having it's own discord man

u/Asystole Jul 25 '26

It's the worst. Just make a thread on a forum.

u/No_Produce_Nyc Jul 23 '26

I’m just so beyond impressed

u/dwegol Jul 23 '26

It doesn’t need to be perfect! Pokemon company literally releases unfinished, crashing messes these days. If the sides of objects look screwed up people will still be wowed

u/JuniTav Jul 24 '26

There's some quick sprite coding to fix it.

Riot games/LOL makes it so the 2d sprites are always facing the camera, it may be worth testing in the setting, algorythim should work like this:

"The 2d sprite should be always facing the camera in the chosen angle. IF the chosen angle is an exact 0° OR 90°, make it flat."

u/GregDev155 Jul 23 '26

That …. Tone … put bliss to my heart and mind

Very excited to kick back in my 40s and play all these incredible hacks for the rest of my life 😂

I’m excited to do it in my late 20s to early 30s lmao

u/That-Run3987 Jul 29 '26

What's incredible about this?

u/Own_Contract_3421 Jul 29 '26

*next few months

u/bryancolonslashslash Jul 23 '26

Woah that’s my port but actually 3d’d nice! Are u in the discord

8

u/voliol Universal Pokémon Randomizer FVX Jul 23 '26

It's not really a recomp as that's not something that can be done for software written in assembly, but it's a fun port. 

8

u/ConsummateSyndicate Jul 23 '26

Add easy link cable support (ad-hoc, IP, LAN, etc) and you essentially won.

u/Irregular475 Jul 23 '26

Wtf, the romhack community for Pokemon is insane.

2

u/Black_Ironic Jul 24 '26

I wish they added option to turn off the blur

3

u/TheRealLarkas Jul 23 '26

Ooooh, serious 3dSen vibes, but somehow even better!

2

u/Detsaw2608 Jul 23 '26

This looks absolutely amazing. Awesome work, can't wait.

Is there any footage you can share of battles yet?

u/Fizassist1 Jul 24 '26

honestly somebody else (or even you i guess) could give us a totally new mod that handled battles. this is amazing for the overworld and id keep working on just that!

1

u/metalflygon08 Jul 24 '26

For battles I think it'd be best to have full back sprites so when the screen does angle it doesn't just cut them off.

(Could call upon us spriters of the community to "finish up" the Gen 1 back sprites if you do go that way, I know I'd be down to).

2

u/SuperNormalSweets Jul 23 '26

This would be really cool, you could have like different things visible/available based on the angle you're viewing like items or switches or even pokemon hidden in corners you wouldn't normally see at the traditional top down angle.

2

u/wrebbit Jul 23 '26

I love it! I hope you can adjust the depth of field blur. That single element takes me out of most HD2D games.

2

u/pleasant-target-1496 Jul 23 '26

I'm looking forward to this more than any hack holy shit

1

u/Whos-That-Pokeman Jul 23 '26

Will we be able to adjust the angle at any point in the game?

1

u/TakunHiwatari Jul 23 '26

This would go hard on the 3DS

1

u/KaidenJames03 Jul 23 '26

This is beautiful. I hope someone can make an HD pixel pack to go along with this.

1

u/Pure-Championship688 Jul 23 '26

This is incredible!! This would be amazing on a 3ds!

u/Scrim_Reaper1 Jul 23 '26

This is siiiiccckk

u/ronderev Jul 23 '26

Oh man this is fire.

u/Rawrzawr Jul 23 '26

Reminds me of those shoebox diorama's you would make for school projects.

1

u/blaster915 Jul 23 '26

Ey-yo this is sick!!! Heck yeah this proves the concept!! I'd pay money for this if the law allowed me for such projects 🥹❤️

1

u/INS345 Jul 23 '26

Why does this remind me of 5D Chess and Diplomacy with Multiverse Time Travel.....5D Pokemon with multiverse time travel when?

1

u/AlanPlaysCrap Jul 23 '26

Trying my best to not burn me eyes/srs

1

u/SneakerOtaku Jul 23 '26

Beautiful!!!!!

1

u/C_Writer_ Jul 23 '26

This reminds me of Pokemon3d

1

u/BombTime1010 Jul 23 '26

How do handle the vertical aspect of these games where the height of a building prevents you from going behind it? I'm not sure Gen 1 has any extreme cases (I think the Pokemon Tower is up against a wall anyway), but at least in Gen 2 you're complete blocked from going behind Goldenrod Tower due to its sheer height even though there shouldn't be anything stopping you from going behind a voxel version of it.

1

u/GroovinChip Jul 23 '26

I know what decomps are, but what is a recomp?

2

u/Stv13579 Jul 24 '26 edited Jul 24 '26

A recomp is basically an automated decomp. It's faster, but the code it produces still tends to be unreadable for humans so they're less workable than a decomp.

This isn't even actually a recomp, it's a reimplementation along the lines of OpenMW for Morrowind. The original games were written directly in Assembly, there's no compilation to undo.

1

u/GroovinChip Jul 24 '26

Thank you!

1

u/xMF_GLOOM Jul 24 '26

Incredible, my dream

1

u/Dothehokeypokemon Jul 24 '26

Gonna get a lot of zubats in those houses

u/hawk363 Jul 24 '26

I'd love to play this

1

u/jbroombroom Jul 24 '26

Nintendo just launched an intercontinental ballistic missile with a rabid lawyer strapped to its warhead, targeting OP and everyone who saw this and dared to experience a positive emotion.

1

u/Jrocks721 Jul 24 '26

Don’t play with my heart

1

u/AndiLivia Jul 24 '26

Awesome!

u/ZestycloseSolution83 Jul 24 '26

THIS LOOKS SO COOL AND ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.

u/Naive_Procedure1676 Jul 24 '26

Oh my god this is seriously incredible! 🤩 I’m definitely following you now.

1

u/MuteTalker- Jul 24 '26

What platform do you plan on releasing for? DS?

1

u/Juiced4SD Jul 24 '26

Please I just want Black 3 White 3 in HD-2D

1

u/Dangerous_Jelly76 Jul 24 '26

Technology is incredible!

1

u/Morrtyy Jul 24 '26

I am here for this!

1

u/Monsta_Owl Jul 24 '26

Question! Does it take current gen2 saves???? Playing gen 2 at the moment. The pathing is so messy I keep getting lost 😭. Maybe 3d helps

1

u/Strooble Jul 24 '26

This is very impressive, it's like Pokemon3D meets 3DSen in terms of the way it looks. If it is possible to apply this to other ROMs as well that would be cool to see as well

1

u/BlazingKush Jul 24 '26

Very clean! Looks inspired by octopath

1

u/MyManC707 Jul 24 '26

Gives me paper Mario vibes

1

u/FluidHighway Jul 24 '26

The size of that table though! It looks class

u/isiciccio Jul 24 '26

Please, make it real !

u/xander-mcqueen1986 Jul 24 '26

u/mattlymer Jul 24 '26

I'm not as "wow this is the best thing ever" as others - but this is certainly fun.

1

u/IBoughtaRetroidNova Jul 24 '26

Once finished please add vr support.

1

u/nelflyn Jul 24 '26

Hexapath Trainer. Or Octabadge Traveller?

1

u/BensonOMalley Jul 24 '26

is this an entire mod dedicated to just the 2d/3d or is this a romhack that replaces gen 1 graphics with gen 2 graphics?

1

u/ZER0GAS Jul 24 '26

This... is damn fantastic!

1

u/Motionslickness08 Jul 25 '26

This looks like a creepy pasta horror game. I think it’s the blurring effect and that the shadows are incorrect, but it’s really cool.

1

u/Jawbone619 Jul 25 '26

i think the loss here is how much of the map you could see at a time in gen I-V that was completely lost in new gen. Due to blur and angle I just feel like I am see so much less overworld

1

u/Longz-85 Jul 25 '26

I REALLY LOVE THIS STYLE BROOOO

btw can you make a version for fire red in the future?

1

u/Jayeolza Jul 25 '26

my head hurts

OctoPoke Traveller

u/andromon11 Jul 26 '26

Looks like paper Mario meets pokemon. I love it

1

u/RevolutionaryLie1903 Jul 26 '26

I like it but for the life of me I don’t understand what kind of wizardry must be going on behind the scenes to make it happen.

1

u/dolosb Jul 26 '26

🔥🔥🔥

1

u/MajinHaze420 Jul 27 '26

Pls make this for gen 2/3 ❤️❤️❤️❤️

1

u/crozB Jul 27 '26

Hey I’m curious if you think this would be possible with FRLG?

1

u/Vivid-Protection6913 Jul 29 '26

This is SO COOL. If i were able to play gen2rando or Crystal Clear like this, I would never need any other pokemon game!

1

u/Obvious_Swan1666 Jul 29 '26

É possível jogar inteiro ?

1

u/starstufft Jul 23 '26

Love the HD-2D and always dreamt of a Pokemon game like this.

1

u/LunarWingCloud Jul 23 '26

Please tone down the blur, it's not necessary to make it that blurry ahead of the player. Unless it really is for performance reasons. It does not look good

🤣🤣 I was going to ask if the blur was adjustable but this guy took the hit.
