Ok so I recently started using the BDSP randomizer tool again lately. The other day I made a test seed and the starters randomized without issue, but when I made a new seed with the same settings the starters are vanilla. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

#

You’re using it with vanilla BDSP, correct?

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:30 PM

#

Yes, that would be the one

steep yew Jul 30, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

Cool. I haven’t used the randomizing features of it myself but I can see if @final fulcrum is able to provide some insight.

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:31 PM

#

Thanks! That'd be great!

#

I'm trying to set up a shiny hunting stream on the randomizer and I've tried everything I can think of.

I'm out right now just typing so I see this when I get home

Thanks Aldo! Appreciate ya!

Thanks!

For now it may be helpful to send some screenshots of the settings that you have in the randomizer.

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:38 PM

#

The only things I leave disabled are the level modifiers, the evolution randomizer, and the moveset randomizer, I randomizer everything else.

#

Also I lowkey forgot how to use the screenshot function on my PC, haven't used it in years

#

#

#

Figured it out

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 9:52 PM

#

what was the fix?

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:54 PM

#

Oh no I meant the screenshot thing

#

I tried disabling the 60 fps mod but nope, starters were still vanilla

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 9:54 PM

#

what's the output

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:54 PM

#

What do you mean by output?

#

Like what I play the game on? I use atmosphere

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

did you test on an emulator or something?

#

atmosphere has a different output it should be atmosphere randomized

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:57 PM

#

?

#

I got an atmosphere output.

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 9:57 PM

#

is there an exefs_patches folder in there?

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 9:57 PM

#

Yep

#

I copied the starter folder that was in there, and it still didn't work

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 9:59 PM

#

I'm really confused how that isn't working

#

everything else is randomized right?

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:00 PM

#

It should be

#

Give me like 10 minutes to double check

#

Is it possible I disabled the randomizer by pressing "L" at some point by accident?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:03 PM

#

randomizer shouldn't be able to be disabled

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:04 PM

#

I know you can disable mods on a Switch by holding down the L button when loading in, maybe I did something similar unintentionally?

#

Ok abilities are definitely randomized

#

Wild mons are also randomized properly

#

Ok so then the game just doesn't want to randomize starters for whatever reason

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:08 PM

#

just double checking the ips files are there right?

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:08 PM

#

They should be

#

Yep, there are 12 ips files, which sould be all 4 generations of starters in the game

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:09 PM

#

there are 12 because instead of specifying version is just generated for all versions (1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1, 1.2, 1.3) and both bd and sp

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:09 PM

#

Huh, neat

#

I'm on version 1.3 if that helps at all

#

I wish I could figure this out, maybe the tool itself is just broken?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:15 PM

#

I've never seen an error on this

#

considering it randomized without issue the first time confuses me even more

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:16 PM

#

If you want I could dm you a zip copy of the output

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:16 PM

#

wouldn't really be helpful ips files are pretty unreadable

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:16 PM

#

Maybe I'm putting the files in the wrong place?

#

Or maybe I'm missing a step?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:19 PM

#

want to see if this works?

📎 atmosphereRandomized.zip

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:19 PM

#

I'll give it a shot, mind if I ask what settings are used?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:21 PM

#

literally just starter randomizer

#

so it should only replace the starters

#

shouldn't affect the other randomization you used

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:22 PM

#

Ok I'm gonna try it just with starter randomization first

#

Ok that worked

#

I have a dunsparce lol definitely not a turtwig.

#

I'm gonna check out the other 2 just to be sure

#

Ok so do you mind if I ask what version of the tool are you using?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:25 PM

#

newest one

#

looks like same as you're using considering ui

Release Randomizer v2.12.1 · Ai0796/BDSP-Randomizers

Added Shining Pearl Randomization

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:26 PM

#

Mine says 3.10, clearly I'm using a worse version.

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:26 PM

#

that's just the python version

#

if you got it from gamebanana then yeah you're using an older version

#

but I think that should still have 1.3

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:27 PM

#

So for me the starters are always named something different than what they actually are. For example Turtwig would say something like "Kakuna" and give me a lucario. But the one you gave me said dunsparce and it gave me what it said

#

Maybe mine is bugged?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:29 PM

#

no clue about that then I haven't worked on this in forever

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:29 PM

#

I'm gonna download the recent build and see if I can try from scratch.

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:29 PM

#

I know we had a "bug" where it would be the wrong description but never the wrong pokemon

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:30 PM

#

I know there are still a few bugs in the randomizer, the starter thing is one, which I have no idea what caused it, and the other is random evolutions just don't work at all.

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:31 PM

#

random evos is just because it's implemented pretty badly

#

it's hard to do random evos without exefs

#

it's left in but the implementation is kinda shite

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:33 PM

#

Understandable. I just downloaded the version you linked me too and made a new seed, give me a few minutes and I'll let you know how it goes

#

Also I'd like to ask what does "Keep Legendaries" do? Does it ensure they can be randomized or does it keep them vanilla?

final fulcrum Jul 30, 2023, 10:34 PM

#

I think it just removes legendaries from encounter randomization

hybrid elm Jul 30, 2023, 10:35 PM

#

So if I enable "Keep Legendaries" it will allow them to be randomized into the encounter table?

#

Ok the version you linked me to worked. I guess one of the files I had just corrupted.

#

Thanks for all the help! 🙂

#

I'll let you know if any other errors pop up

Hey just a quick question, the random pokemon in the underground, do they change depending on the amount of badges you have? Because my underground looks pretty...uninteresting

final fulcrum Jul 31, 2023, 9:56 PM

#

there are unlocks after gym badges

#

but most of the one's underground are set

#

you can rerandomize ground and replace if it's really bad

#

since it's an entirely seperate encounter table
