I guess this is the official announcement that Mega Man 3 Challenge is cancelled, but I still got 1 stage completed to be played for your pleasure. Rather than rant about the hack, I'll just post the read me, since 90% of you probably won't even touch it  http://dahrkdaiz.panicus.org/MM3/UnNamedMM3.rar There are also 2 bosses in this stage, the shadow Woodman bot and Snakeman, so don't think the stage is over after the first bot fight The screens shown are beta screens, the final version is similiar, but not 100% the same. About the hack ------------------------- This is an officially iced hack of Mega Man 3. The only stages hacked are Top Man and Snake Man's stages. Top Man's stage is unplayable because I had planned on redoing it, but lost interest instead.  What's special about this hack? ------------------------- This hack adds the ability to scroll through weapons via pressing select. The main thing to show off in this hack is the 4 "layer" parallax scrolling used in the game. This type of parallax scrolling isn't scanline based (which is what is usually done on NES, which makes it so that individual stray tiles on the same scanline cannot appear, else they scroll with the rest of the background. My method allows objects to appear on the same line and still have the different layers of bg scrolling. Snake Man's stage shows off this effect throughout the entire level.  How do you report bugs? ------------------------ Don't bother reporting bugs, I REPEAT, DON'T REPORT BUGS. This is a cancelled hack, thus reporting bugs will do no good but to irritate me after I asked you not to. If you wish to pick the hack up yourself, go right ahead, just contact me beforehand.  What ROM was this IPS made from? ------------------------ Mega Man 3 (U) [!].nes Final word ------------------------ I hope you enjoy the gloss of this level, though the design is hardly of Mega Man's calibur (which is a major reason why I cancelled the hack).  Thanks to: ----------------------- Proto K - Testing Bbitmaster - Explanation of some MM3 mechanics, continuous help/support Matrixz - Explanation of sprite format and recompiling his editor to work with my expanded rom. Thaddeus - Suggesting the art style to use to create more depth and compliment my parallax scrolling. (edited by DahrkDaiz on 05-31-04 07:07 AM) |

| Hmm, I had to go to the site to download it (no link here), but I tried it ... pretty nice actually, I wondered how you made that layer stuff until I decided to look at the pattern tables I also noticed a similar improvement in the background in Gemini Man's stage ... The new level wasn't that bad, it's just a bit short or plain, maybe because it has no vertical scrolling at all ... and then there's Wood Man merging with another (doesn't look like Snake Man)  |

The paralax scrolling hack is one of the best things about this.  |

| Midstage boss with an energy bar? Well yeah, I couldn't beat it, so I stopped there and didn't see the rest after ... But then it was called Megaman 3 Challenge for a reason  |
