    He's doing it. And it's free. I'll gladly wait if it stays free.

    No.

    I already a handful of items, some of the moves have had their effects discovered, and so when another alpha is ready I'll put this thread up again =)

    Thanks for your work, Coyotte. The amount of work you and the staff have put into this free service is incredible! Gen 5 can take as long to get here as it needs to :)

    back up. DOWNLOAD AGAIN THE CLIENT.

    All items added, and only one doesn't work ("Pressure Band", don't know its effect.)

    Of course the newly implemented items haven't been tested. A Capella, You First and Stall should all be tested, as well as the oaths.

    Thanks Coyotte! Looking forward to extensive testing of these new items!

    Edit: Just a question though, do attacks hitting bullseye pokemon that were immune, E.G. Electric hitting ground, hit neutrally? or is it NVE?

    I've got a problem...

    "For three, install the development version in a separate folder from the old version's folder. The Fifth gen client isn't compatible with old servers!!"

    What folder is it installed in to begin with? I can't find the one for the 4th generation one at all, and if I can't find it, I can't use this..

    When you try installing it, it will give you the default folder, most likely the same one your 4th gen client is in.
    Just make sure you don't install into that one

    If you have the new client, you should be able to.


    Question: can we increase the size of the 5th gen server from 69 people, please?

    This server is not the 5th gen server.

    The link to the fifth gen server is given in the OP.

    The server is down. Is that normal? I only got one battle and it was SO COOL.

    Anyone know when it will be back up?

    Read the OP, that will answer your 1st queations. The 2nd answer is probably when a staff member (coyote, cryratal, etc) decide to do it

    Can anyone help me. When I click the button that says Client, all that happens is a blank tab opens up, and perpetually attempts to load something. I'm running Windows Vista, if that means anything. I would very much enjoy being able to test out Black and White aspects.

    Please and Thank you.

    Thanks I'll try that, and yes I did mean the link. My apologies.
    =Sabedit=
    Okay, it seems I've downloaded it succesfully now, but I don't have any B/W options.

    Following the OP you should see in the team builder the option for Gen. up the top. Select it and choose B/W. Go build your B/W team for when the Alpha server gets back online!

    When i'm going to challenge somone this pops up :Your team is invalid, you can't challenge except for Challenge Cup! Try giving moves to your pokemon.

    My pokemon do have moves so what am I doing wrong?

    Well, it will depends on each Server's preference.

    Can't say more here, this isn't the topic for it. (But maybe do a "Wifi" tier?)

    Out of curiosity, has anyone had any luck getting this to work with a Mac? Unfortunately, I'm a complete noob when it comes to programming, so I unfortunately have to rely on the spoils of others. If anyone has been able to do so, I would be greatly appreciative. (I would Bootcamp my mac, but presently don't have any Window's discs to use, which is weird considering until now, I've been a PC guy.)

    There is not point doing this as this is just a testing version.
