VHS tape of it or it didn't happen. Can't trust DVDs with this one...
Anyways, that's looking great Trax. I can't get too too excited about it because I don't have a mac yet, but it looks really nice. Hopefully you'll release any documentation you have (if you didn't already) and someone will be willing to draw up an editor for PCs too.

ookay, but two problems:
I dont know howto get VHS to my hard driver/computer
I only own contra on "420in1" pirate shit, but only difference are that it dosent have that "copyrigth" text (and it freezez somtimes at level5 (that snow level))

Also I cant buy orginal contra to my nes, 'cause then I need modify my nes, beccause contra was Probotector(wtf?) at european

EDIT: Maybe I can use vhs's, but I need to use my camera to reg. it

Probotector(wtf?)


I'm assuming that this word translates from something that means forbidden/prohibited in your language, because, well...

Also, what's wrong with either grabbing a ROM or importing an NES?



In other news, note to self: play Contra and find out what the hell it's all about.

edit: fuck you, europe of 1990s

Probotector was the name of the european release of Contra. Google could have told you that.

How the fuck I can reg. emulator using VHS? (VHS tape of it or it didn't happen. Can't trust DVDs with this one... )

And why I need another nes, if I already have one?

Yeah I mean... it was a joke... and I was referring to you actually videotaping yourself do it instead of getting a direct feed from your computer (that way there would really be no chance of using save states), but yeah. joke.

Going through Contra without losing any lives is not that hard, but not super easy either...
I can finish the game in about 15 minutes without losing more than 5 lives...

I recorded a video using my camera (photo camera), and I had to cut it because the memory card got full half way...
Just to go along with the joke...

Contra Run 1
Contra Run 2

Anyways...

Trax released an one-level demo.

But since you bumped this, is there any update on the editor and/or hack?

Since I don't know enough about some of the level's special behaviors, I can't swap levels around, so I'm stuck at level 2. And since I don't know enough about indoor levels, I can't go on with the hack itself. But the editor is still on the workbench...

For those who could finish my demo, you probably noticed that you restart from the beginning of level 1, but with some of level 2 attributes, like music, respawning coordinates, enemy codes, a sudden palette change in the middle, etc. See what I mean? There are still many things that I don't understand fully, some of them may be hard-coded...

When I find how enemies work in indoor levels, I think I'll be able to go on with something playable. In the meanwhile, if someone wants to make the editor for another platform, I can help with the necessary data, and source code if needed...

No, and it wasn't very far along before I moved on to another editor.
