Hi everybody...
I thought I'd show the first screenshot of my megaman 1 hack after it's transformation. This hack was earlier called "Rockman Generations" but I had had a change of hearts and now it called "Megaman Hero". All graphics are custom and drawn by me (with MS Paint and inserted with YY-CHR). I don't know how far I will go with this hack, right now I have new graphic and some asm altering in mind but who knows maybe there will be a custom soundtrack... we'll see. I hope you enjoy the screenshot of my new titlescreen. 
Not sure about the palette. I'll kinda like it but my first idea was one in white and gray. What do you people think? |

Will Master Albert be in?
Rockman Generation was cooler in my opinium. If you going to make own music, why don´t you make a 8bit version of this soundtrack? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rAywSAB56o&feature=channel_page ____________________ I was a prisoner enclosed in the void, were everything might end up just as myself.

Posted by Nintendude88 Thanks you. XD Posted by Insectduel Thanks, the world need more megaman 1 hacks. Heh. No problem, I'm glad you liked it. Posted by infidelity Thank you, Infidelity. I love 8 bit pixel art and I think it turned out great. Posted by Thanatos-Zero Well, I liked Rockman Generations too, but when I moved my project to the Megaman (U) romfile I had to re-arrange my titlescreen. And my love for art made me draw a new logo. Hmm, Will Master Albert be in it...? Well, that's a good question. Do you want him in? What do you guys think? Give me some opinion. Ah, "The Chosen One", I love that theme. It's dark, and makes Albert feel like a real villain. I would love to have this theme and other songs from Megaman ZX Advent in the hack. With my present knowledge, I can't do much with the music but maybe later. And If there is anyone out there with more knowledge about this subject (and some free time XD) I'd appreciate some help... |

After some thoughts, I remade my old Master Albert image, Logo & sprite. What do you guys think about it?
(The new mugshot is to be used for the wily stage in select screen.) And I got this idea to change the robot masters into some kind of "doc robot" type of characters. The problem is I can't decide how they should look. 
This is a few ideas straight out of my mind. Is any of these good? One idea I got in this very moment is; what about using the ones with the black robe and make all six of them have different heads based upon which boss they represent...?! Any suggestions? |

I like the idea of the black robe with different heads.
They all look good, but the robe one are the most menacing. What would kick ass is if you could have the body already present in the boss room, and then just have the head come down to dock with it. It would really complete the idea of it being a doc robot. |

Posted by Zidanerfox The old sprites of albert are so much superior and so badass. However his new logo is better than the last. ____________________ I was a prisoner enclosed in the void, were everything might end up just as myself.

I love the title screen, it looks like Mega Man was chiseled out of old stone. Nice! Also, though your old Master Albert sprites are better, the new ones fit better with the Mega Man theme. They look more pertaining to the series. ____________________ MathOnNapkins' Zelda 3 (ALttP) Hacking Forum on Arc-Nova: http://arc-nova.org/forum/index.php?board=7.0 |

To me....the new logo and new sprite look good but I don't really like the new mugshot...like a lot of people said, the old mugshot is better. That being said, the new one *does* fit better with the whole Megaman theme, but that doesn't mean that it can't also be improved upon....I don't know, to me it seems to be missing something but I can't think of what.
That's just my opinion on this, anyhow. Edit: Oh, by the way, I also love the boss candidate that's on the top right in that other picture. |

Ok, you guys are saying that the old mugshot are better, but can you tell me what makes the old one better? I remade it because I thought the old one was quite messy and I wanted the mugshot to be more like the original I used as ref;
Please, tell me what I should to to improve the mugshot... |

Posted by Zidanerfox You are actually right about the mugshot. However, the sprite and the mugshot can make use of two spritelayers, meaning that you can use more than 3+1 but 6+2. Even Pharaoh Man use 6 instead of 5 colours like Rockman. The fact is, that you can make use of 8 sprites in a screen before it starts to flick. Unfortunatly I do not now how many colours you can use on a screen before the system starts to malfunction of it. ____________________ I was a prisoner enclosed in the void, were everything might end up just as myself.

The sprite limit is a fact, yes. Colors less so, unless you really go overboard. ____________________ Wife make lunch - Shampoo Opera - give it a spin Spare some of your free time? <GreyMaria> I walked around the Lake so many goddamn times that my sex drive was brutally murdered Kawa rocks — byuu |

Posted by Kawa So do you exactly know the limit for colours on a screen? I have asked this kind of question Sprite.INC before, but nobody seems to know the answer. Either it is 8, 12 or 16, but I don't belive it is 24. ____________________ I was a prisoner enclosed in the void, were everything might end up just as myself.

There is no limit.
1. There are four background palette slots and four sprite slots. Each slot has three colors, plus the first entry which is mirrored to each slot. That's (3 * 4) + 1 = 13 colors. 2. With scanline detection and good timing, you can change the palettes in mid-screen. That gives you a near unlimited amount of combinations from the base palette the abovementioned 13 slots index from. 3. Color emphasis bits can be set in mid-screen to make the overall palette more blue or whatever without loading an all-new palette. ____________________ Wife make lunch - Shampoo Opera - give it a spin Spare some of your free time? <GreyMaria> I walked around the Lake so many goddamn times that my sex drive was brutally murdered Kawa rocks — byuu |

Thank you Kawa.^^
That was very helpful, not just for me, but for others as well. ____________________ I was a prisoner enclosed in the void, were everything might end up just as myself.

Yea it's okay to have a couple extra colors like how some bosses on mm5 and mm6 do...but the thing is, you can't just over-do it too much cause you'll quickly increase sprite flicker and slowdown the more you do it.
If you look at speedremix's custom sprites he draws here...he does that alot...and it is a problem cause he puts waaay too much detail into his sprites. That's not saying it's bad or anything...but it defintely would become a problem if they were used in a real NES rom hack as opposed to those fan game projects where there are no limits, heh... If he see me saying this, im sorry if i sound bad or something, i never meant to.  |
