It's not a texture problem, it's a texture loading problem. It manifests as:

* Areas of the game don't load textures, just look black (or corrupted).

* Battles failing to load (trainers being stuck on the "trainer appeared" screen with the rotating pokeballs).

* Bottom-screen menus not having clickable buttons. This is the only one that's really serious, because it locks you out of the save menu.  :(


Reloading a real save fixes it. If you don't have battery saves, a texture issue is inevitable eventually, I'm afraid - whatever causes the issue is saved into the save state, though sometimes you can get around it by loading regions in a different order.

(Also, according to the wiki, the issue is known but low-priority.  :'( )

About the glitchy textures and freezing, I've had experience with these issues in an early test run, but on the actual copy of the LPed game, I haven't seen any issues. I assume that due to shorter periods of play time, the problems have less chance to show up. Remember kids, this is why you save constantly. Paranoid saving is a nifty tool.

Anyways, sorry for the huge jarring lack of updates, mid-life crisis popped up over the last months and things are just now getting back to a somewhat normal state of normality.

I'm leaning towards weekly updates at the least. No set update days, but generally expect something by Sunday at least. If I get the zone then I'll probably update several times a week, but the once-a-weekly thing will at least give me some breathing room and maybe let me want to play the game more, rather than stress out over yet another obligation I'm not fulfilling.

Post to watch.

Interestingly, I've found so far that a save once-per-transition, as in coming out of battles or going through the doors, has been enough to prevent error. A save a screen keeps the glitches away.

Is this thread dead?

Also, where's a good place to pick up the ROMS and emulators to go with this? I need to get in on it.

Given that the last update was about eight months ago, yeah I think this is dead.

Pointing said places out is against board rules I'm afraid

That said this was pretty cool while it was still going, and it led me to discovering nuzlocke runs and their insanity. :P
