Sonic 2: Rebirth of Paradise

If I remember right, that was were I got the idea to use a palette like that.

 

It's because I'm not done with the art from the level yet.

 

Don't worry about that. If I was the way I used to be, I would have already released it.

2 problems with that. 1: I've finished the level layout, and If I made to many major changes. I would have to redo it the level layout. Not sure If that would be a bad thing or not, but we'll see once I get to the level editing again. 2: I'm not that good with collsion. Bout the only thing that I know about it is that it affects the 16X16 blocks.

 

okay, this won't be a problem anymore. Since I'm switching to sonED. Looks like I was right with the collision. Just need to figure out how to get the new art into it.

oh yeah, anyone know where I can find the build.bat for sonED 2?

 

If you think that looks hawt, then take a look at this. If anybody is wondering why the objects aren't where they were LP. It's because I use so many objects I have to add more. Because of the area it was in. Just adding more wasn't really possible. Since sonED add all of the level data and stuff to the end rom. I deleted the extra crap. Then I doubled all the size of the object data in every levels. Plus a few I might use. But since the relative pointers only work up to 800 bytes away if I remember right. Sonic Hachelle-Bee helped by making the relative pointers absalute pointers. Holy crap, it's been awhile since that happened.

Art, and layout though sonED, and the object, and ring placement though hex. Once I get used to using sonED2 it should make things a lot easier.


As for the release date for the next version.

beta tester: When I'm done with the art in EHZ, and finished act 2.
Actual release: When I'm done with the art in EHZ, finished act, and when I've finished the art in another zone and act 2 in that zone. I'm thinking either working on ARZ, or Ice cavern Zone.

As for Ice cavern Zone, I do plan to really make it look like a ice cave. I just need to figure out how to do the ice effect.

 

Even though it doesn't have to directly with Sonic 2: Rebirth of Paradise. It will soon. Look at this pic. Since SHB didn't include him his guide, I'll make it soon. Thanks SHB for indirectly teach me how to do this. =P His guide, plus a little bit of playing around helped out a lot for figuring out how to do this. hmm, I've gotta recolor him.

oh yeah, my plans for the beta enemies.

EHZ: Snail, parahna
ARZ: crocbot, parahna
WZ: snail
HTZ: snail, maybe the bats
MCZ: bats
HPZ: all execpt for the snail

 

In a way, I'm gonna take a small break from S2:ROP to learn some more techie shit. I'm trying to become a more rounded out hacker. Course this will be for ROP. Project for now: figuring out how to port sonic 1 enemies to sonic 2. If anyone could figure out how to do that without knowing asm, it would be me.
