| Alright, well, I'm new to these boards, and to the rom hacking communi- blah, blah, blah... Who cares?
All I'm really saying is... I'm new, I've never done this before, so go easy on me. To save some load time of the page (aren't I nice?), I made a link instead of directly placing the image in the post, so here she is: Protoman: Mega Mission (Megaman 2 hack) I realize that the idea isn't very original, but unless I missed something, nobody's put Protoman into Megaman 2 yet. It was like: "1, 3, 4..." - "What about 2?" - "..." *clubs* Anyway, so far I've redone the graphics for 'Megaman', including the 1-Up sprite, and some other stuff. I've also redone the title screen, as you can see, and I've also rewritten the intro, though I'm sure it's not the best story ever (I'm no writer). I think all I have left to do is edit the levels, though I may do more than that... Now I'm sure you'll all notice that at the title, 'Megaman' is still standing there, though he's in red. For those of you who don't know, Megaman and Protoman (AKA: Rockman and Blues) don't always wear their helmets. So that's not Megaman/Rock standing up there, it's Blues. Anyway, I eagerly await comments and whatnot about my crazy little hack I have here. Thing is, I gotta learn to make it all into an IPS patch... I'm sure there's a program to do it for me. Bwahaha! |

| Okay, I'm not sure if anyone's said this already,
because I honestly don't care to read every rant, but basically, I think the cops are too stupid to tell the difference between roms and computer games, and even if they know what a rom is, they probably won't know they're illegal, and if you get caught, just tell them you thought they were just computer games, or you didn't know they were illegal. If they question the hacking thing, it's purely recreational, and you're not using your crazy mad 1337 skills in a malicious manner, so as long as you're not a moron running through the streets yelling "I have illegal romzors!", you won't get nailed, because if the cops are asking you anything, or are searching through your computer, you've got much bigger problems than roms, my friend. If there are any cops reading this, I'm sorry if you think I called you stupid. Not all cops are stupid, but all the ones in this town are. Maybe you should chat with them and tell the to pick it up. They give a bad name to cops everywhere. Always hangin' out at the doughnut shop... And when Tim Horton's (the doughnut shop, my American friends) is closed, our cops go to Husky (a truck-stop that's open 24/7). But seriously, if you're a cop, what the hell are you even doing here? Investigating? Don't even go there, 'cause that's bull. Now go play your illegal roms like a good little cop. |

| That's totally awesome!
Good luck, and I hope to see lotsa cool progress! For Shadow, all I can think of is being faster than Sonic... Maybe he could jump higher, or some ridiculous thing? I donno. (edited by Twytch on 01-06-06 08:50 AM) |

| Welcome to the official thread of my first ever rom hack!
I'm quite aware that it probably sucks, but you know what? I've never done this before, and I did this all on my own, so I'm proud of myself, as lame as that may sound. Anyway, onto the important stuff! Alright, so here's the deal... Megaman got owned, and now it's Protoman's turn. Seriously, how much story do these old games actually have? Anyway, I suppose you'll be wanting to know all about the stuff I'm doing... ...But how about some screenshots first? 
As you can see, this is a Megaman 2 hack. The title screen has been changed, Megaman is now Protoman, and even on the title screen, Rock (Megaman) has been replaced with Blues (Protoman). Okay, so you're interested? Well, never fear... Check it out! A webpage! Yes, I make games by means other than rom hacking, but alas, it takes a LOT longer, and way more planning to make your own game, rather than edit someone else's. ...So I haven't finished any yet, hence the emptiness of the site.

| Thanks!
Now... What to hack after this? I'm having a lot of fun with this, so maybe you'll all see me around here with different projects, possibly even improving, though there's no way I'm going to even try to understand and edit a game's code. ...At least not yet. Anyhow, if my crazy game seems interesting to any of you, I've posted a thead about it. Huzzah! |

Oh, sorry. 
I guess I should get that IPS thing going on, huh? And yeah, I definitely plan to change the levels. Maybe even work some kind of actual story into this madness. Anyway, I better get on that IPS thing before I get banned or something. Edit: Okay, well, that's done. Hurrah! Thanks for the heads-up.  (edited by Twytch on 01-06-06 12:21 PM) |

| Alright, thanks to Kuja's kind help, I've uploaded the IPS patch (not the rom, like I did have) to my website.
There's a link back a few posts. Just patch it over a Megaman 2 rom, and you're set. Have fun. I know, I know... No new level stuff... Level editor isn't working on this comp, so I'll work on it when I get home. If anybody takes the time out to play the game, please leave some sort of comments here as to what you think of it. I guess everything is mainly graphical, but oh well... It's the fact that I achieved part of my goal that counts. |
