| Yeah. It would've been really kickass if you actually could use Hammer Brother Mario =/ | |||

| This sucks. I was making a huge pile of water balloons and was setting them on a metal sheet stuck in a door frame so they'd fall on the next person to open said door, as it's April Fool's Day, and then the metal sheet broke and they all fell on me ;-; (edited by Kyouji (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-01-04 07:49 PM) |

I'm reworking all the graphics one by one. I'm starting with the ghost house. I started yesterday. Today: I'm stick stuck. The main problem is that damn fishing boo. Seriously, what the fuck am I supposed to do? I can't think of anything to replace it with. I'm not replacing the Big Boo, but that's okay since it looks damn good as it is. The fishing boo, however, looks like shit. So I have to replace it, but... with what? I need suggestions  |

| That is not a suggestion. That is a... I have no clue how I would do that. For one, the cloud it rides is used in several other places (same cloud Lakitu uses, I believe) so replacing that would not work. For two... Gah. Just... Gah. Admittedly, it would be really nice, but... It's just... not possible. (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 12:11 AM) |

| No, I couldn't =/ It would require messing with several other things, which would make everything else not work. And even if it were possible... Well... I... can't really... draw a skull... (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 12:14 AM) |

| But you did not fix your brain. Please do before you continue hacking. You do not seem to realize that when you make a custom palette, it affects everything else in that level. In some levels, your fireballs are yellow. The level design was pretty good (except for the fact that your massive amounts of enemies gave it slowdown far too often) and I comment you for that, but every ExGFX you use looks terrible. Especialy the shy guys. dhy the fuck are they waving their arms like that? Your graphics aren't nearly as bad as Wario's or SMWExpert's, but they need a lot of work. I know I shouldn't base my review entirely around graphics, but while gameplay is important, if the whole thing is just terribly, horribly unsightly, screw the gameplay, this thing is shit. Especially your usage of Yoshi's Island graphics. While I must say, I don't have anything against YI graphics, I think they're quite good, they don't fit the style. It's not like you're editing EVERYTHING to be more YIish, it's just the foreground. As a result, there's a huge clash of styles, and it really looks very ugly.  Glitched foreground just adds to the problem.  Yes, that's right. That fireball is yellow.  I don't know. I... I just don't know.  Everything about this screams "UGLY!!!". I do like the bat though, that's nice. Also, you can't tell from the shot, but those koopas have patches of black all over their heads. (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 11:40 AM) |

| Yes, I believe I'll do that. Thank you, smallhacker. EDIT: Ugh... not enough room to put Lakitu in ;-; (edited by Kyouji (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 10:48 AM) |

| In theory, yes. Theory however does not account for the fact that while I know how to install ExGFX, I do not know how to create my own, mostly due to not being able to work any of the tile editing programs I've found. As it stands, I'm getting by fairly alright just by using Lunar Magic's 8x8 editor, so... (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 10:55 AM) |

| Except for the fact that Zem reminds us of Zemus. Not necessarily a bad thing, mind you. | |||

| Thank you for fixing the graphical glitches. While unsightly, your hack was still very enjoyable, so if you've fixed that, I believe it'll be quite good. Also, a bit of a problem with the overworld: The design is good, but it's a bit squarish. Make it more random, like what you would find in nature. Also, there should be waves below. It's obviously in the ocean due to that swimming bit. If you can't find waves that match the palette just open up an original SMW ROM and copy and paste from there. Also, get rid of the swimming between islands bit. It looks terrible due to the height of both as shown by the cliff sides. Perhaps add a level before it, and upon completion draw a bridge across. EDIT: Well, you do that more than I thought! Once you get to the tropical desert bit, though, all palette problems go away! Yay! This hack is pretty fun. On the moving between islands bit... Provided they're of the same height, you can do this. north/south bridges can be done using the bridge movement tile. west/east bridges can be done using tile 0x43 or 0x44 in the event tile selector. Also... Don't use Atma X' graphics. As cool as they are, they're just not Mario... Oh, but I did like the Dry Bones throwing that energy orb, that was modestly cool. Tropical... Desert. Right. In the Dark Cemetary level, you need more tombstones than Freddy and Dracyla. And the secret exit is evil ;-; Give the people a hint, at least... On tropical desert 3, give less height in the jumping to hit invisible blocks area. You can't jump on to it from the water, you have to run and jump on to it from the area before it, which on the second part is really difficult. Also, give a clue as to the exit to that area, the three coins aren't enough. I didn't find it until I just decided to fall in the pit and try a different path.

| Alright. Now, when I find where that cloud is in the graphics file, I'll be set. The closest thing I've found is on the first sprite page, but that can't be right... I mean, it's not nearly large enough... (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 12:31 PM) |

Thank you Smallhacker. Your advice was quite helpful, and I went with Kario's idea. I'm quite impressed with the way it turned out  Unfortunately, the scythe blade hanging down would be impossible considering the way the cord goes. Even if I had a long blade hanging down, you'd be able to pass through it which wouldn't make sense. So I just made a bloody scythe with a flame at the bottom of it, because, you know, it's mystical.  (edited by Kyouji "Kagami" Craw on 04-02-04 06:10 PM) |

| But that'd look really dumb. Think about it. Here! I even went to the trouble of creating it like that to give you an image.  Now doesn't that look awkward, with the 16-bit skeletal arm, and the transparency issues, and the palette problems? Not to mention he's holding the scythe backwards. And that's just a still frame. When in motion, the scythe blade constantly flips backwards creepily and independent from the actual staff. Even if I corrected the palette problems by sacrificing all other pieces of the palette to make the reaper work, I still couldn't make that not terrible.
