Holy crap guys I go away for one night and come back with 4 pages of stuff. Anyways to address some of the stuff I remember. So far I have put in the maps of Pallet, Route1, Viridian, Route 2, Route 21, Route 22. I have created most of the main engine, events, NPCs, and so on. All the back sprites of the pokemon are done, and thanks to Art_of_Camelot the first 37 fronts are done too. All the base pokemon stats and move data is in. The one big thing NOT in the game right now is the Pokedex data. The battle engine has been started, it has support for all the stuff (accuracy/evasion, paralysis, sleep, etc.) but only parts of that have been implemented, eg. it checks to see if you're asleep but there is  no way to currently do that

As for some of the issues brought up, yes critical hits happen way to often. The original formula is the base speed/2 * critical hit rate. If a randomly generated number is lower than this then its a critical hit. Critical hit rate is 1 unless the move is crabhammer, razor leaf, slash, or something if forget, in which case it is 8. I think the problem is the random number generator doesn't provide enough variance in the randomness. This also creates a problem with discovering wild pokemon (you'll notice that you find lots of pokemon at once).

retThe issue with damage is also something im rather stumped upon. It doesn't happen very often, which makes it harder to find. The damage formula is very complex, so im sure there are things wrong with my implementation. I'll post that as well, see if I missed an obvious issue. As for why sand attack can kill you, each non damaging move requires me to specify a call back, which I have not done so for sand attack, so it just goes through the normal damage formula

As for what you guys can do to help. I will need the pokedex imported into something spasm can do with macros. Not sure how this will be done yet, but when i figure out the necessary stuff, it would be helpful if you could each add one or two entries. I am also posting all the tiles I have so you guys can make maps. http://group.revsoft.org/Pokemon should contain everything you need to make maps. All the maps can be found http://www.spriters-resource.com/gameboy/pokerb/index.html. Claim whatever map you want to do here, and I'll try to keep track of everyone doing maps.

I should also point out that I was not doing this alone. I had the help of a good friend at school, who is not active in the community, to convert all the back sprites, tiles, and maps to this point. Also had the help of another person making front sprites (although he disappeared recently) and lately as I said earlier, aoc has been helping with those. Anyways thanks for all the support guys, hopefully by the end of summer I'll have something playable for the school year

Even if you could do this, it probably wouldnt be a smart idea. Drawing anything takes a lot of time normally, and you will want to optimize it as much as possible. This is made even harder by the fact that it is stored as bits and not bytes. Much better to use the extra space and store the sprite blown up if you need that. This also lets you store extra detail instead of a blown up 8x8

As far as I know that is soon to be gone. We're waiting on will to move all of that over to the codeplex, to keep everything in one central location. That was actually the reason for the name on codeplex, Spencer originally named it Wabbitsuite but it was changed to keep consistent with Will's stuff.

Its all under the GPL except for certain portions of Wabbitcode, which have sections redistributed under various license agreements (LGPL, MIT, etc). To be honest we don't really care as long as you're not passing it off as your own.

With Revsoft still down, and the lack of the awesome group.revsoft.org repository, Spencer decided to move over all our projects to a new central location. The new official place for all wabbit related software is http://wabbit.codeplex.com/.
The latest stuff will always be located here. It also has a lot of fancy features for stuff like bug tracking that I beg of people to use. Anyways yeah, spread the word so that I don't get more complaints asking me to fix stuff that has already been fixed, or people who won't use this because of it doesn't have feature X.
It should also be noted that all platforms will also use this repository, so there is no need to hunt around for the OS X and linux builds.
