logicilla Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 According to the common knowledge passed around, since there's no technical relationship between the PID and IVs, ANY PID and IVs can be used. Even if they just happen to be related in a coincidental way.If you mean the completely random one it can generate, PokeGen does the same thing if you leave the PID editbox blank. It's generated solely based on the information you provide and not by any sort of game-related algorithm. Hmm, I see. Thanks for the quick and insightful responses! Very nice program. I think it's my new favorite
Silent Storm Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 I seem to encounter problems with saving. Whenever I try and save changes to my file it always crashes.
Codr Posted July 11, 2010 Author Posted July 11, 2010 I seem to encounter problems with saving. Whenever I try and save changes to my file it always crashes. Is this occurring with the latest version?
Silent Storm Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Yes. This happened on occasions with previous versions, but now it seems to happen all the time, at least with me.
Codr Posted July 12, 2010 Author Posted July 12, 2010 Yes. This happened on occasions with previous versions, but now it seems to happen all the time, at least with me. Can you upload the save file? Even if you just PM me a link or something. (Although I don't know why you'd care about it being public.)
Bassman Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 (edited) Had a strange problem today. I initially loaded an AR code that "Riolu Aura Sphere Now" had created into Pokegen and got some odd looking information in the "Met" section. Next, I loaded a Pokemon (.pkm file) I created yesterday into Pokegen. Yesterday this successfully loaded into my game with an AR code. The information was fine. I generated an AR code from this Pokemon. I closed Pokegen, pasted the code into Notepad and reloaded Pokegen. I then used the generated code (less the 3 first lines and last line) to load into Pokegen and got a totally unrelated Pokemon in there. I have had no problems up to now so I am wondering what is happening. Edit... further test. Different .pkm file. Generated AR code in Party and PC and neither looked OK in the program. Tried loading pasted code with and without the "header lines and trailer" and neither worked. Put the code on the AR and the Pokemon looked perfect when loaded into the game.

I initially loaded an AR code that "Riolu Aura Sphere Now" had created into Pokegen and got some odd looking information in the "Met" section. That's not surprising. As I mentioned in another post recently, the "Load from code" feature isn't perfect, and probably won't be any time soon. Next, I loaded a Pokemon (.pkm file) I created yesterday into Pokegen. Yesterday this successfully loaded into my game with an AR code. The information was fine. I generated an AR code from this Pokemon.

I don't get this problem on Windows 7, but I just tried it on XP, and of course, what you described happened. I'll find out why and fix it. Edit: This wasn't specific to XP, Windows 7 was just treating the invalid program code differently to where it happened to work. Anyway, it's fixed for the next release. Now, if only I could get Silent Storm's problem to occur for me. Edited July 12, 2010 by Codr -
Gowon Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 What are some hotkeys for this program? I saw some, but can't find them.
Codr Posted July 12, 2010 Author Posted July 12, 2010 What are some hotkeys for this program? I saw some, but can't find them. Versions.txt is essentially a crude form of documentation for the program. - Holding down alt when clicking a Pokemon icon will display its information in the controls now.- Holding down shift + alt when clicking a Pokemon icon will set the Pokemon in that slot from the controls.
MisterAlex Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 I seem to encounter problems with saving. Whenever I try and save changes to my file it always crashes.Same deal here. Crashes every time I try to save. I don't know if the crash info would help, but:Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: PokeGen.exe Application Version: 2.31.0.0 Application Timestamp: 4c38f427 Fault Module Name: PokeGen.exe Fault Module Version: 2.31.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 4c38f427 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 00006ec0 OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Also sending you a copy of my SAV if that'll help.
MisterAlex Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Okay, I did some fiddling around, and it seems to crash if I import a pokemon from a .PKM file and then save my .SAV (either overwriting or saving a new file). So far I can edit my exiting pokemon and save without a problem.
Codr Posted July 15, 2010 Author Posted July 15, 2010 Okay, I did some fiddling around, and it seems to crash if I import a pokemon from a .PKM file and then save my .SAV (either overwriting or saving a new file). So far I can edit my exiting pokemon and save without a problem. That's what did the trick. I was able to reproduce this. I'll have it fixed in a few minutes with a new version uploaded.
Codr Posted July 15, 2010 Author Posted July 15, 2010 Thanks for the problem reports everyone. 2.311 ADDED: Some error handling when dealing with files to help alleviate crashes when a file isn't accessible. FIXED: Loading non-save files after a save file had already been loaded could result in a crash. FIXED: PP wasn't always being displayed properly for loaded Pokemon. FIXED: "Flavor" text (stats tab) was incorrect when the special attack, special defense, or speed stats were highest. FIXED: The "Load from codes" feature had a buffer problem that was causing codes to not always be read properly.
angelcat621 Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 I don't know if anyone else has commented on this, but I've noticed a small error in PokeGen when generating IVs.It seems that the characteristics for the Special Stats and Speed are reversed. For example, a pokemon with a 31 Speed stat will generate "Somewhat vain" and a 31 Special Attack or Special Defense stat will state "Alert to Sounds." Great job! These stats are working properly now in 2.311. However, now I'm noticing the same problem, only with HP and Defense stats.
Codr Posted July 15, 2010 Author Posted July 15, 2010 However, now I'm noticing the same problem, only with HP and Defense stats. Give me a break. I really don't know how the data for these things got entered so backwards. Edit: Err, I'm not seeing a problem with those.

Codr Posted July 15, 2010 Author Posted July 15, 2010 It's no big deal. Thank you for working so hard on PokeGen. Anything that's wrong is a big deal. I wasn't saying you should stop reporting problems. That was really an expression of annoyance at myself. But... like I said, I'm not seeing them showing up incorrectly now.
angelcat621 Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 The mix-up happened as I was messing around with my pokemon's stats on my .duc platinum file. This error only happened occasionally. Now I can't seem to replicate what I did that caused the problem. If I can I'll let you know. Keep up the good work.
red707 Posted July 17, 2010 Posted July 17, 2010 i used the code to change the # of pokemon in your party and used it and now every time i go to my party it freezez and now i have to start everything all over
Codr Posted July 17, 2010 Author Posted July 17, 2010 i used the code to change the # of pokemon in your party and used it and now every time i go to my party it freezez and now i have to start everything all over This is why you keep a copy of your save file for when you screw it up. The first post tells you how to use the party code, you just didn't follow the directions. You can't just increase your party size without filling in the slots with other codes.
Codr Posted July 17, 2010 Author Posted July 17, 2010 well my ds wi-fi does not work so how do i keep one There are tutorials and explanations all over the place on how to obtain your save file.
red707 Posted July 17, 2010 Posted July 17, 2010 well i will be better off starting over but i will look at that
Zekira Posted July 18, 2010 Posted July 18, 2010 Errrm, question please... Which method should I use to find legal PIDs for Mystery Gift Pokémon? 10 or 11? Or is it not possible at this time?
