Hey it's looking great so far. The only thing that bugs me, and it bugged me for your first MMU hack, do you want me to whip up a new ULTRA for the title screen? I can see what I can do using photoshop, and maybe make the perspective look a little cleaner, and then just dump that into YY-CHR. |

Oooh I like the red in there. I'm going to be working on finishing Chorus of Mysteries, but after that let me know if there's any small stuff like I did with the "ULTRA" that you would like. |

A New Hope definitely. It's the only one that's is it's own stand alone story. With any of the other Star Wars movies, you have to watch more than one movie for the complete story. With A New Hope there's an actual beginning and end to it. |

Yeah I should probably write a photoshop to YY-CHR tutorial seeing how it's an easy thing to do, and it can really spruce up a title screen, or sometimes even a background. |

Well I didn't really intend on the bottom being a drop shadow. I just wanted it to be darker, but if infidelity wants to screw with it he can. |

So Chorus of Mysteries is almose done, we're just finalizing everything, putting the finish touches on it, and cutting down on Medusa heads. Here's a new enemy that replaces the eagles that drop fleamen.
It's inspired by the bizzare enemies from the Splatterhouse series. It's a giant flying head that spawns little eyeballs that chase after you. |

Haha... well optomon and I looked into this for Chorus of Mysteries, and we KIND of have a handle on it, but it is still probably the most frustrating thing ever. Even with the data to do it, it's still pretty damn difficult. I'll try to dig up what info I have, and if I can't find it I'll talk to optomon about it. I know he's got some notes somewhere. |

Okay now it's my turn to be picky. take the mid-tone color and put it on all the little corners on the bottom edges to smooth it out a little bit, like I don't know how to describe it other than that or just saying to anti-alias, hopefully you can look at the rest of it and understand what I mean. |

Thanks, it's all optomon though. All I can do is make it look pretty. He's the one doing all the real work. I'll talk to him next time he's online, and get pumped because CoM is going to be done really soon haha. You should put up some screens of anything you have done so far. I'd love to see what other people are doing with CV. |

Wait that reminds me! I change my answer. I'm going with RotJ because if you pause it at the right time, you can see boobies. |

Oh! You're the one that hacked the Japanese version. Yeah, that hack was actually pretty decent, which is rare in CV hacking. There's only like a few good CV hacks in existance. Reguardless if you can or can't change the structure and path, you should finish this up, because it's pretty good. |

Yeah, I find that you ten to be much happier with brand new arrangements, instead of ones from other games. When optomon first got on board for Chorus of Mysteries, I pretty much gave him a list of songs from Symphony of the Night, but then he did his own songs, and I liked them a lot better. Well with the exception of Dance of Pales, but that had to stay. |

On second thought, why don't I just rip the head right out of Splatterhouse 2?
**EDIT** Which looks cooler? 
Regular glow, or really bright glow? |

I have no clue... but I plan on looking into this Japanese version. You are making it sound like there are changes that I would be interested in... |

Posted by Koitenshin -∞ Yeah, I'm thinking about going with those bottom two for it's two frames of animation so it looks more like glowing and less like flashing. Now if I can just figure out the hex coordinates of the whip you start with, so I can turn it into a sword... **EDIT** 
GAHHH! Too much stuff on the screen!! That's Castlevania for ya'... But anyways, yeah, I'm going with those bottom two, it looks cool. |

Hmmm... same here... we should start a club. By the way, I don't buy into Star Wars anymore. I just watched A New Hope the other night, and I realized something. I'm willing to believe lightsabers, hyperspace, and the force, but the interior design of the Death Star is just retarded. Why were there so many giant holes in the ground without railings around them? Watch the scene right after the Millenium Falcon docks. There's a giant like 50 foot wide death trap on the ground. You might be saying "Well they use that as a giant elevator." The problem there is, they DO use it as an elevator, but it's TINY. There are like 4 stormtroopers packed onto this tiny platform... and guess what? It doesn't have railings either! Like what the hell were they thinking? |

Thanks. I was just talking about the fact that there was chunks missing out of a couple of sprites due to there being too many of them on the screen at once. That happens all the time in Castlevania. I still need to figure out how to make this sword work... I mean it's totally not worth it to track down this one byte just so I can have a weapon that someone will use for about 2 seconds before they get the whip weapon... I just think it would be a cool change to have the 1st whip be a sword.
Seriously, I want this to be more than just a mock-up |

Mine is a really poorly made sprite of me that I did, and my rank is a sprite I made for someone.
**EDIT** By someone I mean Shadic. |

Stake is for chumps. I'll start liking stake again once there's a map screen editor, so I can stop doing it by hand, but seriously though, use it to edit the backgrounds, it makes it insanely easy, along with the candle/enemy placement. Make sure you have the newest version though. |
