Sonic the Hedgehog - New lands 1


====================================================


Do you remember a hack like "Sonic the Hedgehog - Lost lands 1?


Of course! This hack originally grew out from a remix version of the earliest version of that hack. The remix was made by me. I made the


remix because of the inspiration i got when seeing those zone titles.


I was planning to release that aswell but instead i wanted to make a hack of my own out of that remix and since then it has come what it is now and of course, this doesnt have anything in common with the remix or that hack.

This is an edit to the original post:


Im planning on redoing the hole thing from scratch some time in the future


if this hack isnt worthy the name of a hack then trash this topic.


p.s. this was also entered in this years hacking contest.


original:


(censored because i wanted to)


edit: hacking contest build:


http://sonicresearch.org/hacktube?401


====================================================

 

This looks like really epic. New Layouts, new arts, new palette and I hope new ASM codes. <_<


But one thing you coud fix, is the Iron Impact Act 3 palette. It looks like too much dark.


EDIT: Link(s) are broken

 

download the latest from the hacktube link


(thats the hacking contest build)

 

@the SBZA3 Palette


Matrix sonic?

 

Actually i was thinking on that when i made that palette.


ill change those pallettes soon to a palette with more green variants

 

Well time for something worth bumping:


i have been designing some art for this hack and i would like to hear your opinions weather it should be in or not.


chess style art (future labyrinth zone):





this is something i made today, i call it rainbow road. i know there isnt much of it but still... (future star light):





This on the other hand is one of the earliest art i ever made and im proud of it (future scrap brain):





p.s. it seems that photobucket fucks with me... *grumble*

 

I love it as it is

 

but new art will still come for that act


edit: update for rainbow road:


edit 2:image fix





nice,eh


edit 3: you see that brownish block on the right and away from others? that was going to replace the yellow color but in the end i still went with yellow, so that particular block is free to use for all (and the palette of it).


edit 4: There was also going to be a purple block and maybe a few other colors but i went with these four colors.


if you want to use it, just ask permission (and give credit of course). Only to be seen on sonic research and sonic vegemite only.

 

OMG RAINBOW ROAD.


SNES port, plz?

 

sorry, i dont know how to do that but yes rainbow road is taken from mario kart

 

K, something to hold you on before the art edits are complete and i figure out how to compile the rom...


ver 2 video:

ver 4 video:

ver 7 video:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSKqfT_iJDw


i used esraels patch, there are some object edits on ghz and title screen palette edit.

ver 14 video:


not there yet!

 

Ok get the megamix shit out of there. Sonik Sprite fails for sonic 1 sprite editing. Your layouts look confusing. Floating objects are a no no.

 

Well hey don't hold back or anything, say what you really think...

 

@ Irixion : Only thing from megamix was, and ill say it again WAS the level select font, it has been changed a long time ago.


Go play the newest version and enter the level select code (a+^v<>s).


Im already working on the art for star light.


I still havent figured out that SonMapEd, so just wait.


Im redoing ghz layout also already, gonna make it more "flowy" and why not floating objects?


@ Qjimbo : Meh...

 

Hey, your hack is really awesome, the art is epic, specially the SBZ one. I will give it a try.

 

I've warned you once already about being a dick, and I'm not gonna warn you again. Next time I'll just ban you without saying a thing. I dunno whats got into you the last few months, but you're hardly the big shit when it comes to hacking, so why not have a little bit more respect for people starting out.


FYI, I've been using that same level select font in my hacks since back in 2001, and will continue to do so, as will so many other people. It's a common shading technique on font, get over it.

 

StephenUK... that post was from September 2008 =/

 

One I missed then, but the fact still stands. For the last few months on here and on retro he's been nothing but abusive. Just a reminder that shit like that isn't needed.

 

As Qjimbo said it's old as fuck. Second of all, what I do on retro has no business here anyway. >_>. I'd rather have to say get megamix shits out of there than having the whole 'you're a fag for stealing things' drama start again. (Sonic 255)

 

Maybe what you do on Retro has no business here, but the fact is you've been acting like a prick there and here


And just for the record, he hasn't stole anything, its a very generic shading on the basic Sonic 1 level select font, which has been used countless times by myself and others. Does that mean that we all stole it off each other. Sort your fucking head out.
