There isn't enough text changed in Shards of Might to know where to go next usually. You just gotta look around and use all the items available to you to get to the next dungeon, much like the original. Iirc there's a dungeon that is just a boss fight with Mothula right near Sanctuary. The next actual dungeon after the first one is in the forest. Don't bother looking for anyone in particular, the NPCs have not been changed much, if at all. The main purpose of seeing Sahashrala in the original game was to get the Pegasus boots and get some map markings, but I'm pretty sure the map markings have not been changed for this hack yet.

This is just a cheap knock-off of my original thread!
And you closed my original thread!


Sorry, but your thread wasn't as good.

You know, there's a

tag.

Anyways.

Spoiler:
There's a dungeon in the woods that has both staffs in it. Also, how did you beat the dungeon with the Ape statues outside? I figured I had to use the cane of somaria to get to the boss but apparently you found another way? I don't remember checking if there was a statue in that room to put on the trigger. I ended up using a PAR code to force the door up b/c I was sick of trying to figure out a legit way to do it.

Have you noticed that you have not posted any screenshots? Generally speaking it is one of the best ways to generate interest in a project. I believe it's even in the rules that you're supposed to post screenshots for projects in this forum. Color me unsurprised that no one's really responded about it yet.

Myself, I just don't care b/c I don't really like the NES Contra. Maybe if it was a Contra 3 or Contra 4 hack.

INTJ
Introverted: 78%
Intuitive: 12%
Thinking: 38%
Judging: 22%

Seems to be what I got the last time I took one of these things, but a bit more introverted. Hope I'm not turning into a hermit.

This is a tool for loading SPC files and dicking around with their samples. Generally speaking you load an SPC file, halt the CPU, stop all channels from playing, then run hog wild messing with the different settings. Since this is a fairly simple tool I should be making a release relatively soon.

I'm pretty sure that Mono doesn't support P/Invoke, so if you used a DLL..... well.... poop.

Heh, they must have added fairly recently b/c last time I looked they said if you wanted to Platform Invoke then you were SOL.

In most cases it's not encryption, it's compression. If you removed the compression, the graphics would take up a lot more space in the rom. I'm going to wager in a typical case that it will take up 60% more space in the rom. I did a rough calculation on Zelda: A Link to the Past once and found that I'd need almost another half a megabyte to store all the graphics in an uncompressed state. When you look at a typical limit of 4 MB and 6 MB in rarer cases for a rom, you can see why they compressed the data. Also, if you compress the graphics you have the ability to use smaller and less EPROM chips, which were expensive at the time.

It's a bug. I've fixed it in a later version, but not in the one posted here.

how the people are willing to help with stuff (like the opposite of SMWC ).


I think the issue with SMWC is that many people there aren't capable of being helpful, even if they wanted to.

Quiet, AlgebraOnToiletpaper. You make me madface.


So I shouldn't say anything about POWER ABUSE?

In any case, you know I'm just kidding around, I don't think you're gay. At least you've not yet given cause for such suspicions.

I have no idea what you're talking about.


I wasn't saying anything at all! Such wild accusations against someone minding their own business.

Nope, it was SePH and Euclid. But Euclid did all the ASM.
