Shouldn't we split the overworld into submaps first and determine which kind of level we put where?

Go ahead, I guess, it's always possible to shuffle things around later... right now, the main things we need, I suppose, are an "outside" overworld, an underworld, several in-tower worlds and a pinnacle of the tower one. Always could give the different tower floors different themes.

Of course, it would be interesting to make a fully linearized/level-based hack without overworld for once too, but I suppose this should be easier to organize...

If it's indeed the header thing, you can't really blame it on the emulator since the headers are intended for the copier devices much more than them...

I also set up a file on the moonedit server (see sticky in ROM hacking).

File name is self-explaining; password is "notashovel" without the quotation marks.

I generally agree, except the tower should be made more tower- and less castle-like. I've been thinking of a bland, menacing appearance like in my original mspaint picture for that thread.

I also would pick a different level number balance, placing about as many as you did outside and in the underground/switch path, but considerably more for the separate tower floors. Also, the presence of a town doesn't go to well with the "solitary menacing tower" thing...

edit: For the "outer wall" level, I'd have the right tileset, BGM and probably even level already done... let's take a pot shot at Cave Story, seeing as everybody here, pretty much, played it

Only having 13 levels will make the whole thing kind of short, which is why I opt for having more different levels per floor in the tower. Accordingly, everything outside could be stuck into the large overworld; underworld and all tower floors would go into a respective submap.
If we stick two floors into each tower submap, we wind up with a total 8 floors + roof (assuming the top submap would only have one floor and the rest would be used for cinematic effects)

Well, it's unlikely we are going to use addmusic for the music since SST is more convenient and enables us to convert from a variety of formats (then, I've been thinking to add SMW-native import, so addmusic-made stuff would become importable as well, effectively...)... regarding the space, I'd place a wild guess that this is scaleable, so whoever wants to contribute can get to without a problem unless we hit like 100 people.

Ailure resolved this after I poked him about it earlier today.

I will never add guitar to any of my electronica. The electronically created guitars sound like crap and real guitars don't match.

Amen to that.

Other than that, as a background loop of sorts, this is fairly decent (I don't remember paying any particular attention to the bass either, but then, I'm (as usual) tired as hell, thus having quite the opposite of sharpened senses).

You could always use TweakUI to adjust that... but yeah, the font looks fine here.

15-bit, actually, with an 8-bit palette; only single tiles are limited to 16 palette entries (unless you go for that one-layer 8-bit screen mode).

I be MrCheeze. You might know me, but probably not. I registered before but was banned before even posting or doing anything at all . But I finally found a way around it, so here I am!

I believe it was because you had a ton of hash matches (did you use something like "lol" or "a" as a password?) and thus were quickly flagged as a reregger. Then, your present IP also kind of looks like a proxy...

Both that game and the editor look fairly interesting... I should give it a shot

But yeah, there's really no reason to preassign a small subset of the levels that are going to be made like this. We'll probably wind up with at least ~40 distinct ones.
