[DEAD] Wario Land 3 Hack Project

Last thing I wanted to say right now:
I was bored during my history lesson at uni today, and I drew this:

IMG_0001_zps6bc2788f.jpg

Wouldn't that be a bit tedious? Let's reduce it to 3 blocks.
Also... that enemy looks...uhm....welll xD
 
I got an idea for a story.
If we can change the background inside the temple then how about this?:

Once Wario wakes up in the temple there's the old man/wizard guy from the ending in the background but he has been turned to stone.
He tells Wario that Rudy returned and turned him to stone and the other people into brainwashed monsters. Then he says that Rudy escaped to the outer world and wants to turn everyone into monsters and that Wario needs to use the music boxes again to stop him.

But in the end it turns out it was just Rudy again and he fooled Wario into helping him again. ^^

Maybe we can add another detail that explains why everything has been reset. ...or maybe we just leave it at that.

Your story is acrually better than mine! o_O
Both of them have some flaws thought... Well, we can fogure it out later. Let's not rush that.

I'm going to take a nap, and after that, I'll be working on making am imporhtant document for us
 
I can understand you. We might make it different.
However, I do want a custom story, becuase I want to use the feature, show off what we can do.
And the story i tryed to write is to vaguely explain how Wario explores the same, but slightly different world, and why it seems like it all happened before.
We might make it different. Considering the story of the game isn't importhant (it's only in the beginning and ending, not the main game), writing a story will probably be one of the last things we do



And this too.



Yeah. In that case, let's not do what Above The Clouds did. It put the golf game at the very beginning of the level, and the player had no idea what treasure chest will require the golf game. Let's not do that.
In the Vast Plain, the player is required to play Golf Twice. Let's not do that as well
I just did some more research. The origional game makes you play golf to get 12 treasures in the game. TWELVE! This might be a bit to much. We could decrease it.
We can also make some optional gold in some levels, that only rewards you with music coins (or as ShyGuyXXL re-designed them, Wario Coins).

I like the idea of changing the playing golf for treasure chest to playing golf for wario coin in some levels.
As for the picture, I wouldn't enjoy that. It's, again, tedious. I'm not exactly sure how many blocks you can smash with one apple, quite a few, right? This idea can be good, but instead of a ladder there should be a different part of the level, with other enemies and obstacles, so it's more exciting. Or, what you could also do, is having you turn into jumpy wario at the bottom, and lots of go-through platforms to get back up fast. And then up top spikes somewhere to make you normal again. Definitely no ladder though, long, plain ladders are really boring.
I prefer my first alternative.

It was just something to do when i was bored during a lesson, as i sayd. I can see the tediousness.

I like the idea of changing the playing golf for treasure chest to playing golf for wario coin in some levels.

We just need to make sure players understand if it's required or not. Players who don't want to collect the 8 coins need to know when golf is just for the coins, so they know that they can just scip the golf game.
If we do that, we can roll with this idea

Alright, so due to Smash, I haven't observed the forums that much, but:

1. The name of the game: if we manage to change the sprite of the Music Box, we can make the game's story feel just slightly different. That's just an idea though.

2. Why not just use the recorder build into VBA? If you don't like the sound delay, you can just use VBA ReRecorder, which is what I use. It's a version of VBA made specifically for recording.

3. I said in my first post I'd also like to make Trailers for this hack in the future. I'm quite experienced with editing, so I'd love to do that. Also maybe we can do something in the veins of a Nintendo Direct sometime? Again, just an idea.

So that's it. Back to Smash Bros, I'll try keeping my eyes on the forum though.
 
Yes, under: Tools/ Start AVI Recording

I didn't know about that. Thanks for the info :)

Can you share any video that shows your editing skills? I'd like to see what you can do :)

I'm planning on making a video later this week, so I'll show you that when it's done.
At least I have something pretty recent to show you, then.

Long-time goal:
When we finish the game, I hope we can create a walkthrought of it, with developer commentary.
One person would be playing the game (1 treasure per video), and other people will join him for guest commentary, via skype.
And as the player is playing the game, we would all talk about the game, and the development process...

Back to reality now, it's time I get to work. I have some documentation to do
 
Let's see who's better :p
Well, I need my other Laptop for video editing, so I guess I'll make a video in about 3 to 4 hours, edit, upload, and then show you guys.
In the meantime, here is a 2 months old video:

EDIT: I have been working on my edit skills the last two months, which is why there are no recent high-quality editing videos from me.
 
Uhh... Haiko?
What's with your voice? Sorry to ask, but it sounds kind of weird. Are you using the computer to pitch your voice?
Actually, I didn't have a proper mic back then. I have one now that's decently higher quality. Also my English accent has improved in these months, being more British now. AND I'm only 15 years old, meaning my voice isn't fully developed yet, if that's the correct way of saying that.

I'm also going to switch laptops now, I'll be back in about 10 minutes.

No matter.
I'll just pick them up from MediaFire and Re-upload them :D

Edit: I Re-uploaded them, now where do you want them, I'll move them myself.

Edit 2: Suddenly silence.

Nevermind, keep them wherever you want.

So. What have bee working on for the past 45 minutes?
I've been going throught the ROM in YY-CHR.NET, searching for various graphics, so we could edit them later. Unfortunatly, finding graphics in the mess of pixels isn't easy. Some of those pixels might not even be graphics, but other things coded. And the things that are there are very much undistingvushable.

Oh well. I uploaded what I managed to find to "Wario Land 3 Hack Folder / wariolandgoldpiramid's folder"
It's pretty useless so far, but if you wanted to try editing the level names, or the look of certain blocks, you can find the adresses for those in the text file
 
I am currently rendering a video in Vegas Pro (Yeah, no stupid Windows Movie Maker)
Hopefully it renders correctly.
