I will play your demo, probably starting tonight. There have been a couple Zelda Classic custom quests I've been really addicted to lately so I haven't been playing many SM hacks, but I'll give this a shot and let you know my thoughts.

EDIT: ok so ive never used windows movie maker for making a vid for youtube and i have no idea on how to get a zmv into windows movie maker for editing. help please Embarassed

I don't use Zsnes or whatever its called, but in Snes9x you just pause the game, play the movie and then record an .avi then put the avi parts into windows movie maker.

Sorry to get so off-topic mods (I just wanted to answer his question), but no. Zelda Classic is a custom engine that people use to build their own LoZ quests. 2.10 is the newest stable build. The quests vary in quality but some are quite excellent.

www.zeldaclassic.com
www.purezc.com

These sites should answer any and all your questions. If you are a fan of Zelda in addition to Metroid (as I am), you should check it out. You will be glad you did.

*sorry, will stay on topic now*

I like the overall look, especially the look of the pirates. So far I have morph, five missiles, and one e-tank. Do I need to go to the area to the right of the ship next? If so, and I think this has been mentioned, I had to use slowdown to do those mid-air morphs, and that's kind of a turn-off for me.

Then I got killed by some rising acid. Is that where I'm supposed to be?

Edit: Got through the acid room, got ice, went back, beat spore spawn, got bombs and charge (the mini-crocs are made of win). I have 2 e-tanks. I gather I'm done? Also, FYI, theta deck was all glitched out.

It's a hack that's full of potential. Nothing was really hard that would necessitate an "easy" version unless you plan on making it a lot harder later on. I was able to do every mid-air morph in real time except one, the first one you need after you enter the room to the right of the ship. That one I had to use slowdown.

Burrrp!

hey i like the hack so far and i found a glitch

the second e-tank (the one after robo spore spawn) you can get it as many times as you want

also i found place you can get stuck

in the thermal leak room right when you enter from the landing site it drops down and without bombs i accidentally rolled into it.

aside from that i like all the graphic changes, the exploration is perfect, but you should just add like 1 block of extra air for those mid-air morphs it is annoying having to slow it down (even if for a second) but keep up the good work and i will wait patiently for either the next demo or the final patch.

thanks for all the feedback guys Very Happy

, it's really gonna help, and as for the respawning e-tanks and the air tiles, they have now been fixed, and as far as gfx go, theres gonna be a lot more coming up, fairly soon after spore spawn.

OMG! i think i shit myself!

ok, after a really hefty break from hacking, ive decided to pull up my hack and start editing, although its a bummer that i only have a few days a week to work on my hack but, rest assured im making good progress, a demo vid is to be expected soon as well as some new screen shots, the demo ips patch will also be updated before crimbo, feedback would be a great help as to where certain points of the game could be improved. ill keep you all posted. thanks :)

i know this thread is pretty old but, this is kinda important, my hard drive recently got wiped and i need my ips as a backup for my ideas, any chance that you people still have a copy?
