    Character map modification by itself won't be accepted either, first of all. I'll add that to the rules. Palette hack + layout without art changes? Fine by me =) As long as there's a new level layout, that's where the line is drawn. If it's a technical hack and it has the same layout, that's okay too. Just no palette hack alone or character map hack alone. I could do stuff like that ten years ago with no problem and it's really not enough of a feat to even allow it to be entered =)

    Just to add something on to this, we now have an IRC channel for the hackingcontest on Retro's server!! Just join #hackingcontest from the server irc.badnik.net to get to it =) The channel is for all questions pertaining to the contest and to discuss various aspects of your favourite current and past contest entries!! I hope you all enjoy the changes that I'll be making to the contest to make it more interactive this year and I hope to make the Seventh contest the best of the hacking contests I've yet to have =)


    EDIT: Didn't want to make a new post, so I'll tag it on the end here. If for some reason something happens to me tomorrow (long story), I'm leaving it to Tweaker to decide who will take over the contest for me. That way it's not up for grabs.

    I am not arrested or overdosed. The contest will proceed as planned. Thankyou goes to Oerg for being prepared for the worst. Just over a month left, finish off what you have and send 'em in =)

    Glad to see you back :)

    actually, I've already received nine entries. Just a little over a week left!!

    ...and guess what? I got actual trophy pictures for this year :D I made them myself ^^

    They kind of suck >.> I've been promising this for the past seven contests, though, so I figured I should make good on at least one of the things I've promised.

    EDIT: just a heads up, I have a channel on retro's IRC server dedicated to the contest. Just get on the server and /j #hackingcontest if you have any questions or concerns.

    I collaborated with Tweaker on one at the beginning of the year, was going to be for the first zone of the 'new' Sonic One; very inspired by Journey to the West (or Legend of the Monkey King, whichever). I didn't get far, drawing art straight into SonEd2 isn't very good for me if I want to make a convincing mountainscape in the background.

    In before anyone tells me to "learn2import": Yeah, every attempt failed (to be fair, only about three times). Hacking confuses me, I swear I've got the talent to put together something awesome BUT until there are tools even a freaking idiot could use, easily-confused old me ain't gonna bother. ^^;

    I won't be entering this year. Although I've recently made some progress, life conspired against me to have anything significant ready.
