Welcome. This is an early information thread about my upcoming hack, ACMLM Adventure. The main theory is that you are a newly registered user, and you are to try to get everyone to accept you by proving to them you are worthy of power. You must travel through the many forums and threads in order to do so. All I have created so far is an overworld map, here:
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
(Ignore the sprites, they'll be dealt with later)

I want you to help me decide what should happen.
1: Should the main character be an real user, and if so then who?
2: I want the bosses to be either mods or admins, but I don't know if I should use actual ones out of fear of getting banned
3: And the troopers/basic enemies. I think these should be basic users.

Give me your opinions!

EDIT: Thready -->Threads

I don't really know what to say.

That screen is so vague and lack of progress doesn't help with me giving advice.

Thread based levels? I can only imagine this will turn out to be a a few levels with a black background and text with very little design.

Good luck with this.

Heh. Only the OW is based on thread appearance. The rest of the levels will be a lot more advanced than that, plus the levels will only be vaguely based on the threads.

1. The main character doesn't necessarily need to be a real user, it could be Mario being sucked into his computer by one of XKeeper's script things on Acmlm's... Hey, the boss could be XK!

If it is a real user, go for something simple, like BMF's Blobby.

2. I doubt you'd get banned, it would be pretty funny, actually, to use mods as bosses. Use King Kattahaw (or whatever the heck his name is), maybe Acmlm for the last or second-to last boss, (XK as the other), and other mods like him. Or use Kyouji as a really tough one.

3. No, I think that's pushing it. Go with viruses and stuff like that. Or make them smilies or letters, every next letter of the alphabet being a progressively tougher one to pass. (Ok, actually that idea is starting to sound weird.)

Your ACMLM's adventure was sort of pertaining to the other thread, so there's a chance this might be closed, but it's a topic addressing something different about it, I guess.

I know where you're coming from with that. Maybe I posted this prematurely. I plan on having detailed levels that aren't based on the inside of a computer, maybe like a civilization. I want this to be a lot better, compared to my other hack (Super Shyguy Bros.). I want to use a lot of custom ExGFX, none of them ripped. Maybe a few levels will be based on the inside of a computer, in like Programming or something, but the rest should be reality based levels.

The enemies could be ghosts of banned users, maybe the main boss would be A Nega-Xk or Nega-Acmlm, looking to destroy the board, instead of update it.

Good idea for storyline:
Mario was sucked into the board when the Anti-Members appeared, and released all the banned users to the board! Instead of saving eggs, it would be board members by the hundreds! Bosses would be Nega-Mods.

And at the end you find out the anti-members were created through some obscure database glitch.

Hammer Brother from Sprite Tool+New GFX=Admins throwing banhammers

You should make the bosses be mods of the corresponding forums (ie: Xeogred would be the boss of General Chat, and King Kattwah would be the boss of Brain Teasers)

Here's some more info I prolly should have mentioned about the overworld. The forums marked by smilies are levels, the forums marked new take you to a different submap ('NEW' GFX are created in place of the star for Star Road)

Since the levels will be vaguely based on the forum, you can bet that Approval Request Forum and Braiteasers will not be easy

Nothing personal, I just chose the 12 most level-suited forums. I basically had to add FAQ (that will have a big role in the hack). I still don't know what the mystery forum will be though.

Perhaps you can make the level for WA/D to where you have to dodge snowballs or people just being plain jerks? In the WA/D, people always try to make you lose your balance and fall over. Perhaps the theme of WA/D could be something like an ice mountain?

This seems like a good idea actually! You could make the FAQ/Announcements how-to-play levels, Pokemon hacking could be Pokemon themed, Brainteasers could have puzzle levels like Forest of Illusion, Programming could be computer themed, and Pit of Despair could be...well, a big evil final level

all good ideas. I actually have something different planned for the pokemon forum (I won't say now), but keep in mind that the only forums that you can actually go into are the ones marked "new". The rest are just basic levels.

Mods/Admins as bosses for a SMW hack, I already thought of doing that, it would be great. This looks like a sweet idea for a hack.

Make the main character named like... XxMarioSonic218321GokuNessxX, but everyone just calls him "that n00b kid." Otherwise you can actually think of someone, I guess.

For enemies, members is too far... I suggest, like...

Wiggler --> Stray Emoticons (Make like a line of smilies that turn angry using the magic of a custom palette!)
Dry Bones --> IP Switcher (Some lame n00b who keeps getting banned and coming back somehow)
Koopa --> Topic Hijacker (Stop stealing the topic and keeping it on your back, jeez! Also it makes sense that Yoshi or whatever he is would get powers from ingesting different topics)
Goomba --> Rom Requester (Maybe a little dude with CD wheels?)
Rex --> Catgirl (I'm sick of catgirls, it'd be great to just step on one for once... or twice.)
Banzai Bill --> Board Error (Just make him a bunch of corrupted tiles)
Blarrgh! --> Condescending Moderator (cough alastor) (Don't let him drag your topic down into the abyss! Just jump over him and maybe he'll give up.)
Chargin' Chuck --> Topic Terminator (Some people like ruining topics better than ROM Hacking, I guess. Make him look like Ahnold with sunglasses and stuff.)
Lakitu --> Crappy Hacker (This crappy hacker sits on a floating console and rains hacks that took about five minutes to play. You can jump on his head to get rid of him and show him how to make a REAL hack... but he'll be back!)
Spiny --> Crappy Hack (Too... crappy... to... step on... or... play!)


Then again, this isn't my hack. Take what you like, leave what you don't. Thanks.

I like your enemy ideas, though a few suggestions:

-Dry Bones might be better called Ban Evader. "IP Switcher" is kinda :-/ from a technical standpoint.
-Not just catgirl... DEMENTED catgirl. When you step on them they get down on all fours and motor (the squished Rex) as a real cat probably would.
-Board Error is a funny idea, but glitched tiles would be ugly. Maybe a big message box that says "MySQL Error" or something. Or just a horde of n00bs (dunno how they'd fly, but you could just keep them on the ground).
-Spiny could be an NES cartridge with "DUH" written on it or something dumb like that.

I like some of these ideas. I hadn't really planned on doing much with the enemies, but things change, right? I'm not requesting anything here, but If you'd like to show some of your ideas, go for it.

Current Progress: GFX and ExAnimation for what appears to be the interior of a Train level

I'm not too sure what this will implement, however
