Well LevelConverter can convert S2 chunks to S1 chunks, but you might end up with too many chunks. Then you have to port the background scrolling, the level-specific objects (LevelConverter will convert the monitors and rings for you), add water, set up the title card, and port the music.

 

interesting... and that converter will make the collisions, walls and floor to work good?

 

@Psycho RFG You could always use this: http://info.sonicretro.org/Project_Sonic_1:_Two-Eight


Might makes things easier.

 

Interesting, I didn't know about it, thanks. But I want to keep the original Sonic 1 engine for the moment.


@MainMemory: Do you think that would be possible?

 

Well, if S1 and S2 use different shapes in different slots for the solids, LevelConverter won't handle that, but you could probably have it load the generated collision files instead for HPZ only, and keep the other levels using the original collision data. Or you could change the indexes manually to match S1's solids.

 

@MainMemory: OK, thanks. I have to give it a try.

 

I was going to do something really special and suprising here on SSRG, but a few people (inside and out) kinda ruined my plan (go figure), so I have to improvise here.


Starting with:





Go on RG, make my day!

 

You're doing a 3D version of Green Hill on the Megadrive?


Very nice screen, too bad it wouldn't fit in my hack, I'd steal it otherwise

 

Looks interesting. Kinda not my business, but when you say people ruined your plans, do you mean they did something before you?.

 

Nice design! Is it a level select screen?

 

So i've been playing the Xbox Live Arcade port of S3K and got an idea for a hack. Basically Sonic 3K with my own achievements. I've begun working on it already, so far i've implemented a perfect bonus during a normal level. (Rather than the perfect bonus within the special stage.) If you meet a certain condition, you are granted an achievement. Receive a few of them withing one act, and you'll be granted with 2 continues as well as this perfect bonus. Here's a short video demonstrating it, though it's still a WIP.



In this case, if you boost you're granted an achievement (for now it just adds 1 to a counter i've made) and therefore you get the perfect bonus. (The 2 continues haven't been implemented yet... :V) I'm going to use the left over Sonic 2 options screen as an achievement screen to show how many you've received. Also MJ that looks amazing. :3 I can't wait to see what it's for.

 

RavenFreak: Perhaps there should be a little pop up icon when you've done the achievement.

 

This screenshot looks amazing. Great job, now that is Metal Sonic!

 

New objects? I love to see hacks with those, especially when it looks somewhat cool and intriguing.


Weather it's a cut-scene or a boss, - it looks wonderful for my taste! =)

 

oh me likie new screenie. really now this looks really good here, just what you would expect metal sonic to be like. any chance of entering this in this years contest or no? honestly i think you should.

 

I was thinking about doing that in the future, but my sprite skills suck. :S For now, i'll probably add a new HUD object. BTW awesome screenshot. ^_^ Whether it's a cut scene or a boss, I like it. Any chance we'd be seeing a video of him in action soon?

 

All in good time people, all in good time =P.

 

Just a small update on my S3K hack, i've fixed the results card. Here's a screenshot:





Yeah I know it looks cluttered (for now) but i'll fix it later seeing how I gotta get ready for work now. :V I'm also going to add something before "Bonus" as it looks silly alone. :V

 

som moar nu skreeniez:








Yes/No?
