This thread is dedicated to providing all of the information and resources for the people who plan to help out with the NPCs of the Pokemon Kanto Region map on the Vizzed Minecraft Server.

The goal is to recreate every NPC from the game and have them say and/or do what they say and/or do from the game as accurately as possible. I'll be working on creating the skins but I will only be creating around 20 skins (an account per a skin) so when you create an NPC, you'll have to pick the skin/account that is closest to the NPC you're making.

The minecraft plugin which will be used for creating the NPCs is "Citizens" and the commands for it can be found here:
http://wiki.citizensnpcs.co/Commands

Whenever possible, give the NPC the same name as in the game. If the character doesn't have a name, then base it on their location and description. So for example, if there was an Adult Woman in Pallet Town, you could give her the name "Pallet Town Girl". Now if there are 2 NPCs in the same location which would have the same description (like the 2 scientists in Professor Oak's Lab), then you could name them "Professor Oak's Lab Scientist 1" and "Professor Oak's Lab Scientist 2". For the list below (and not for the actual name of the NPC), you can place in brackets their location or any other important details to help you keep track of things. So for example for, the NPC with the name "Professor Oak's Lab Scientist 1" in the list below could be "Professor Oak's Lab Scientist 1 (left scientist)" so that you can keep track of who is who but like I said, his NPC name would remain just "Professor Oak's Lab Scientist 1", the added "(left scientist)" would just be for the list below.

The best way to get all of the needed information from every NPC is by using the 'Advance Map' editor. For information on how to set it up, go here:
https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=78273&pl=1064608

When making the NPCs talk, you can simply copy and paste their text from the 'Advance Map' editor. To do this, click the Events tab and then right click the character you want to view. You'll see a bunch of text, scroll down to the ---------Strings--------- area. Some characters say more than 1 thing, you can either have them say all of the things (maybe randomly if possible), say what's most relevant, or have them say the final thing on the list.

If an NPC doesn't have a script in the 'Advance Map' then don't add them. Also, if the same NPC appears to be duplicated a few times on the map (this happens sometimes), then be sure to only add 1 of them. There are sometimes multiple NPCs with the same sprite that appear on the map, these are usually not duplicates so you'll want to add each (read their script to find out if they're duplicates of each other, if they say the same things, then they probably are).

You'll want to set the range of each NPC to 2 so that they only talk to you if you're close. To do this, you type in
/npc text
And then
range 2

Some NPCs walk around so if possible, try to replicate this with the Citizens plugin. Usually it's the characters that are outside and not the characters that are inside. From within the Advance Map editor, under the Events tab, when you click an NPC, at the very right it'll say what their movement type is.

Any time you're done for the day with adding and editing NPCs, I'm pretty sure you have to type in this command:
/citizens save
I could be wrong but if you don't, you're at risk of losing what you've done.

EideticMemory : Letting you know of this thread. The only NPC you can work on right now is Professor Oak. I'll let you know once I have more characters finished so that you can progress.

Thanks! I've been excited to start up on this part.

I've read through the thread, and I've added it to my favorites.

I'll get started on Professor Oak and practice with the commands.

EideticMemory : I'll have Vizzed_Man, Vizzed_Woman, Vizzed_Scientist and Vizzed_Nurse finished within the next few days, that'll allow you to make a lot of characters then.

Let me know when you're done with Professor Oak so that I can look him over. Try to make him in the exact spot he appears in the game and make him face straight like he does in the game.

EideticMemory : Vizzed_Man, Vizzed_Woman and Vizzed_Scientist are finished and ready. Vizzed_Nurse, Vizzed_Boy, Vizzed_Girl, Vizzed_Brock and Vizzed_Misty should be ready by the end of the week.

Davideo7 : I've created an NPC of Professor Oak.

This command should tp you directly to where I created him:
/mvtp e:"Pokemon Kanto Region - Indoor":8,27,8

He'll be right behind you after you teleport.

Currently, he will randomly pick one of these three things to say when you approach him:
1. "Good to see you! How is your POKéDEX coming along? Here, let me take a look."
2. "Come see me sometime. After all, I want to know how your POKéDEX is coming along."
3. "I'll be looking forward to seeing you fill the NATIONAL POKéDEX!"

This was taken from the Advance Editor. Let me know if you want different (or more) dialogue.

If I understood you currently, you just wanted him facing forward. Let me know if you want him to turn around to face the user. I did "/citizens save" in order to be safe.

Also let me know if the range of "1" seems too short, and if we want to increase that any.

EideticMemory : Looks great. Yeah a range of 2 is what we should probably use from now on.

EideticMemory : I've made a lot of progress today:

Finished Minecraft Accounts:
-Vizzed_Red
-Vizzed_Leaf
-Vizzed_Mom
-Vizzed_Oak
-Vizzed_Man
-Vizzed_Woman
-Vizzed_Science

Skins finished but accounts not yet ready:
-Vizzed_Nurse
-Vizzed_Boy
-Vizzed_Girl
-Vizzed_Brock
-Vizzed_Misty
-Vizzed_OldMan
-Vizzed_OldWoman
-Vizzed_Police
-Vizzed_TRocketM

The accounts that aren't ready are not ready because I haven't received the verification email for them yet. I currently have the budget to upgrade all of those accounts. In other words, they should be available to use by Thursday night (tomorrow). I probably wont have the budget for the other 8 accounts (the ones mentioned at the end of my first post) for a few weeks but I'll probably begin working on their skins sometime this week or next week.

EideticMemory : The Vizzed_Nurse account has been activated and upgraded but I'm still having issues with the other 8 accounts. I'll let you know as soon as I get them activated.

EideticMemory : For some reason I can only seem to activate 1 account per a day. Anyways, Vizzed_Boy and Vizzed_Girl are now activated which means you can finish the girl in Oak's lab.

I know your working hard on the skins, I really love the creation, and am hoping tonwin the Misty one xd
But this is just a suggestion for Silc. Co (Building in Saffron City), how would the teleporters work in Silc Co? And, who would be on the top of the building? (Somewhere around Lapras) Just some quick questions, but I'm seriously looking forward to this and the Misty account, just had to cancel my bid on the science one xd One more thing..
It's a bug report, I was on the map with the site, and someone (if I can remember who..) suggested Leggy to go to the pokémon server, he did, when he talkef to Professor Oak, he lost connection to the server, when he went back on he told us that.. He got the Vizzed_Oak account.
Legacyme_3:
Just summoning you for the bug report xd
EideticMemory :
Also summoning you just in case you know why.

TheJmsGamer : I know of the problem.

It's due to one of our important protection plug-ins.

It has to do with the anti-selfhit feature.

So there's no "solution" to it, per se, but I hang out with NPCs of myself all the time.

I just take care not to hit them when I'm in survival.

TheJmsGamer : Not sure how we'll go about those teleporters yet.

EideticMemory : Vizzed_Brock is now active.

EideticMemory : Vizzed_Misty is now active.

EideticMemory : Vizzed_OldMan and Vizzed_OldWoman are now ready.

How's progress coming along btw?

Davideo7 : I've set up the Girl, including her movement patterns. You can check it out.

I set her walking speed and everything. It's pretty neat.

I've also loaded up that save file on Fire Red, so I'll refer to that for NPC movement. The speaking has been glitchy, and one of the lab scientists stopped speaking completely. I've been trying to fix that, but I think I'll end up just remaking him.

Let me know if you want any changes in what I've already done.

Davideo7 : Just want to let you know that all Pallet Town NPCs are finished.

All of their speech has been added, and their walking speed and path have been set.

I'll probably go back and whether any fine-tuning is needed, but I thought I'd give you an update.

EideticMemory : The movements and everything seem great but I did notice a few of them don't talk.

Also letting you know that I have 2 more accounts ready which are Vizzed_Police and Vizzed_TRocketM. They will be the last accounts I add for a while.

Davideo7 : That's odd. They all -should- be talking, except for one of the Lab Scientists. No matter how many times I recreate him, he's decided to stay silent. I think there might be some kind of bug in the plugin if more than one stopped talking. All of the others worked when I created them last weekend.

I'll look over them again to make sure that I didn't overlook anything.

Hopefully it's that and not a plugin glitch.

EideticMemory : Maybe it's because you're giving NPCs the same name?
