Hi. I had to disappear for a while due to uni exams, but ive very slowly been working on my engine. At the moment I've got the GUI working nicely (which took a lot of work but will speed thigns up now), as well as quite a bit of pokedex functionality.
At the moment Im working on a chat application as a first step in networking. From there Im going to develop the battle system. Im developing it in a client-server fashion first, and then im going to compact it down for single player battles. Im trying to make my engine mimic some of the new DP information, so all features are constantly subject to change.
I've a very small demo (only showing a simple gui screen), which I've uploaded to the PT website. Find it at test.ptreasures.net/java/demo1.jnlp
To run this you will need java version 1.5 (many pcs will have this already), and java webstart which should be included with java. All the demo does is demonstrate a simple menu, which takes mouse and keyboard input. The graphics are temporary copied from DP screenshots. Ive actually developed a lot more, but i can't include it in a simple package yet. Nothing all that impressive tho.
