First of all, I'd upload the patches but it seems my host's server has crashed... second of all, I doubt anyone will really care about this, but it's a little special to me for I just found a version of my first ROM hack I didn't think existed anymore. Thank you pirates for taking credit for my hard (Actually, now that I think about it, damn easy) work!

Proto Man: The Red Bomber 1.0!



Ugh, the sprite was ugly, I was never really happy with it but it was much better than the other Proto Man hacks that were out at the time (Which were mostly half-assed copy and paste jobs of Proto Man from MM3 over the standing animation)



See above description.

Protoman: The Red Bomber ReadMe

This is a simple hack that changes Mega Man into Protoman (Detailed storyline will be posted on my website [www.geocities.com/crystaltechsoftware]). Anyway I edited Mega Man's sprite to look like Protoman (No crappy Mega Man 3 sprite) and changed his pallete (I wanted to change the weapons palletes too, but I decided not to because they are hard to find & changing them seems to crash the game for some reason.) I will be realeasing another version of this hack called Protoman: The Red Bomber+ with new level designs and other changes. I also hope to have a new version of this out in a few days with changed ending text and a new title screen (I'd appreciate some help with this is someone wants to try, e-mail me at DarkKnightKain@connectsj.net). In about a week I'll make a Mega Man 2 hack, also, along with a + version of that (Again, it might be a while beofre I can get to making the + versions.).


Whoa, I wrote that divel?

Anyway, this is the only version I've known was still around, it's still available on ZD.


This is what is special, it was only available on the X-Hackers website (Anyone remember that?) and I thought it was long gone:

Proto Man: The Red Bomber 3.0!



It should be noted I did not create the PROTO graphic, I stole it (Yes, as in used without permission) from a Proto Man hack for Mega Man 5. I also forgot to remove the original shadowing behind MAN...



Woo, shadowed fonts!



Much better sprite, nowadays I'd just stick MM3 Proto Man's head on Mega Man's body and make a few edits, back then I lacked the skill to do that and drew my own.



I'm still proud of this climping-shooting animation, it looks great, even if the shield is a little small.

Other details: 1-up is stolen from MM5, Powerups stolen from other MM games, changing life bars was "in" at the time. I went through three life bar designs, undivided, shrinking boxes, and finally transparent empty background, which you see in the screenies.


I don't think there was ever a version 2.0, if there was I sure don't remember it.

The only comment I have is that it's perhaps one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time to say "Those stupid pirates are stealing my ROM hack!" The irony is just so abundant it tastes like a subtle blend of roasted turkey and oregano.

I think I'd be honored if any of my rom hacks were stolen actually. It's cool to think of my hack in cart form.

I thought SSM is the only one that made Protoman sprites. Oh, well. My brother really tried that hard.

You took the words right out of my mouth XD

Anyway... with regard to the original post... you claim they're stealing your hack? From the way your post is worded (aside from "taking credit for my work" -- but judging from your name on the hack title screen and the snippit you pasted which appears to be from the original readme, I fail to see how they're taking any credit) it doesn't sound like they are at all. It just sounds to me like they're hosting it (not exactly stealing).

Could you link to the page that is supposedly stealing this hack so we can see it in context?

Nah, I just worded that bad, I was half asleep at the time. The zip file had the name of a ROM site, while at first I thought it was someone taking credit for it... heh.
