>>500860

>>588462
romhacks*
And not difficulty mods kthx

>>588447
Here's also the Mega folder containing a lot of hacks:
https://mega.co.nz/#F!R8RCnZZY!Zxyqoynu9GVWIwFHCISK2Q

>>588462
I'll have to see if I've any, though you may be best off going with Beats of Rage mods I think.

>>588482

Question: Are the links in that Mega folder patches or prepatched roms? Just wondering.

>>588546
They are pre-patched.

>>588561

Cool, thanks.

Polite sage.

>>588469
>>588462
>rom hacks
>not difficulty mods
haha you're so funny anon you know there's no such thing as a hack that isn't a hardmode hack!

>>588567
why sage?

>>588619

Because I wanted to acknowledge the reply and say thanks but I didn't think that bumping the thread was necessary for that.

Same here.

what megaman rom is in the OP?

Is there a list of hacks in the mega folder?

Also, metroid construction is all you need.

>>588675
>metroid construction
Tell us about it.

Maybe just because I also dig touhou, but I thought the Touhoumon romhacks for Pokemon Fire Red and Emerald were pretty good.

>>588684
Figure it out

>>588482
You happen to have anything similar full of Sonic or Mario hacks?

>>588573
>Game crossovers
>Bug fixes
>Cheat mods
>Sprite mods
>etc.

>>588695
Dude seriously, enough with the gratuitous sages. OP said this was a thread about discussion and reviews.

So, anon
>>588675
Tell us about this romhack, please. I'm interested just by the name.

>>588697

SMW Central is a good source for SMW hacks (though there you just get patches, not roms).

But a quick look at the Mega tells me that all the good ones are already on there, so I don't know if I would recommend digging around in there.

>>588714
>still thinking sage is a down vote
What an idiot

>>588714
Not the anon who mentioned it but looks like "Metroid Construction" is a site that specializes in Metroid hacks.

http://www.metroidconstruction.com/<wbr>

>>588714

Sage is not a big deal, man. It just doesn't bump a thread. It's nothing to get upset over.

>>588714
Use the internet

The fact that you guys in this thread didn't immediately know what I was talking about really disappoints me and makes me wonder why you guys are discussing rom hacks at all. I really hope the comment about the only hacks being hardtypes was a troll too, if it wasn't I don't quite know what to do with myself.

>>588740
I think you're missing the point. Maybe you should read the OP message again. This isn't a 'figure it out on you own' thread That's /v/ talk. This is a discussion thread. Last thread was FILLED with helpful and informative anons. Don't neg this one up for no reason.

As for you
>>588727
>>588725
Don't assume. My point was why sage at all? If it's 'not a big deal' why even sage? Is there some harm in a thread going to page 1? Saging just to sage is rather stupid..

So I can ask what your guys opinion on Zelda Outlands is? Is it worth playing?

>>588675
I could make a directory listing text file.

>>588697
Well in the Mega link you can run a search for Sonic or Mario and it'll list everything that I have.

>>588761

I consider it rude to bump a thread with inconsequential or off topic posts. It's just good 4chan etiquette to sage with such posts, in my opinion.

>>588740
>>588727
>>588725

Please go back to /v/.

>>588761
I see through your treachery, ruse man.

My current state is not lesser than before, sorry excuse of an illusionist.

>>588761
well people see sage as neutral. It's not a huge deal if you do or don't, but people just consider it polite to do when you have nothing to add, considering it takes no effort.

>>588798
The catalog renders this void now

>>588761
>That's /v/ talk
Haha, oh wow! You guys still think you're above them? From what I've seen of this board thusfar, you're all just as clueless and lacking in knowledge as /r/gaming. Your threads are all "WHO ELSE REMEMBERS ZELDA/SONIC/MARIO???", and you never seem to discuss the more obscure (for lack of a better word) classics that populated older systems. This board covers 20 years of video games and so far has been nothing but a circlejerk about a couple hundred, well-known classics.

I'm telling you to figure it out for yourself because it's obvious just how clueless you guys are if someone posts about Metroid Construction in a rom hack general and everybody goes "what's that?" I don't want you guys shitting up the rom hacking communities of the internet, just like /v/ and 4chan at large has shit up so much else. Besides, lazy posting just pisses me off in general. It's literally the first result on google, you really don't need to ask.

I came in this thread expecting people who were knowledgeable about the hacking scene, and I'm sorely disappointed.

Above? No. But we actually try to enjoy ourselves here instead of having pissing contests and beind /b/V2.

See above.

>I'm telling you to figure it out for yourself because it's obvious just how clueless you guys are if someone posts about Metroid Construction in a rom hack general and everybody goes "what's that?"
Yeah, that's gonna happen when people wanna actually discuss things..
>I don't want you guys shitting up the rom hacking communities of the internet, just like /v/ and 4chan at large has shit up so much else.
Define shitting up, and how people asking for help/knowledge does that.
>Besides, lazy posting just pisses me off in general. It's literally the first result on google, you really don't need to ask.
And you don't NEED to be an asshat for no reason: that shits up communities quick.

I like having to reload the page

Please, don't start the threads with encouraging wars.

>>588873

I don't bother with the catalog either. I never thought there was anything that needed improving the way things have always worked.

>>588816
Read more threads dear fag

>>588816
We are above /v/, because our threads are actually on topic and not thinly veiled porn dumps and /b/-tier shit

>>588862
I've been here far too long to see something catch 4chan's interest and watch as they completely taint the communities of things they don't understand. I actually greatly enjoy the hacking scene, and don't want to see the same happen there.

I apologize if I seem rude or pretentious, but I'm sick of posters here thinking the rest of the internet needs to cater to them. You want to know what something is? Fucking google it like anyone else would. You have the same tools at your disposal at the rest of the internet, fucking use them. "Lurk more" used to be more than just a phrase to tell people off, it used to be a site philosophy. You didn't barge into discussions you knew nothing about and demand people explain, you came back after you did your research and were informed enough to carry on a conversation. Now, I know that doesn't necessarily apply so much in this particular instance, but come on man, why couldn't you have just googled it and then got into a discussion once you knew what it was that was being discussed?

Anyway, I've been saging because I realize this isn't contributing to the thread, not as a "downvote" or anything, and I don't want my negativity to ruin you guys' fun. I'll gladly get off the topic.

What have you guys been currently playing? I've been working my way through Super Metroid Z-Factor

>>588881
Avoiding the catalog maximises my time-wasting potential
With the catalog I can't go "just 1 more reload"

>>588908
Clap clap

>>588925
Now that's the kind of post that's /v/-tier. Why don't you guys go back home?

Hey guys, has there been any update of Sonic 1 Megamix aside from the previous "stable" releases?

I know they want to keep their cards close to their chests, but I want to see what's been up.

>>588935
clapping intensifies

>>588798
>>588770
>one person uses a "polite" sage
>triggers 20 unrelated posts, including this one
just don't post at all, nothing polite about interrupting the public

>>588943

But it would be rude not to say thank you to someone answering my question.

>>588943
polite sages are part of about every board on 4chan except for /v/ and /b/ I guess because they don't know what sages are for
I have never seen ANYONE here flip out about them until now actually

>>588931
I heard of a leak, but I dunno where it is.

>>588908
>I'm sick of posters here thinking the rest of the internet needs to cater to them.
No one here has 'demanded' anything. Inquired or questioned, at the most.
>You want to know what something is? Fucking google it like anyone else would.
Or as here (read: OP post)
>You have the same tools at your disposal at the rest of the internet, fucking use them.
And this thread is now one of those tools.
>"Lurk more" used to be more than just a phrase to tell people off, it used to be a site philosophy. You didn't barge into discussions you knew nothing about and demand people explain, you came back after you did your research and were informed enough to carry on a conversation.
Or you could just start a discussion here, too. "Tell us about it" used to be more than just someone whining and demanding info (wait... it never was..). What it was meant here was 'hey, discuss said thing and talk about it. Hell, give a REVIEW of it, with your opinions'.
>Now, I know that doesn't necessarily apply so much in this particular instance, but come on man, why couldn't you have just googled it and then got into a discussion once you knew what it was that was being discussed?
Because we were asking for the discussion. Are you so wrapped up in yourself you can't just give a short review? Just tell us your opinions and thoughts and likes and dislikes and on and on. Geez man, we just wanted to read what you thought on the damn thing.

>>588798
This should image be on a sticky on every board.

Also was wondering if anyone had links to channels (or just single videos) of some Kaizo-esque TAS runs. I like watching those for some reason.

>>589028
>Tell us about it
>Tell me about it
>Discuss said thing and talk about it
>Give a review of it
>You can't just give a short review?
Why they hell should I be inclined to do any of those things if not for any other reason than to provide you with information and waste my time when you could easily find it and form your own opinions, then bring those opinions to the table in a discussion? That's what discussion is, not "Tell me about this now, I command it".

Maybe if you would have simply asked instead of using phrases like the above, I'd have been more inclined to enter a discussion. But I'm not going to give a review of a fucking website just because you want me to do so.

>>589067
>Why they hell should I be inclined to do any of those things

BECAUSE THAT'S THE POINT OF THE FUCKING THREAD, MORON!

>>588447
>This is basically a romhack general thread. The emphasis is on romhack suggestions and tutorials (i.e. where/how to acquire them). As suggested last thread, it's also a thread for romhack reviews! If you have played some good romhacks (or bad) we'd not only like you to suggest them and give pertinent sourcing info, but please tell us about the game. Was it good, was it bad, what did/din't you like about it, graphics, ease of use, sound, etc etc etc.

It's not Kaizo, but the 100% TAS of Super Mario World 2 is just about as crazy.

>>589067
Dude, seriously, it's one thing not to give your thoughts, but it's another to put others down just because they're asking your thoughts. You don't have to review it, but you don't have to be an asshole to others, either.

>>589067

You're still not getting the point of this thread. This is not "1337 r0xhXrz" central, it's help and discussion.

>>589116
I didn't make the thread, but I can read. And I can post within what's suggested. You can't. Your problem.

>>589114
Metroid Construction is a Super Metroid rom hacking community. They're very active and host a ton of cool hacks. You should check them out.

There, is that what you wanted from me? I already recommended it in my post, I still don't see why you couldn't check it out, report back here with your opinions, and carry on a discussion that way.

>>589137
>I still don't see why you couldn't check it out, report back here with your opinions, and carry on a discussion that way.
because I asked YOU what YOU thought of it. And instead of giving a few thoughts on it, you preceded to bash the fuck out of anyone who inquired of you.

Whoa whoa whoa, I come home for a break and this thread has severely gone off-key. I;m gonna ditch this one and start anew. Sorry anons, but I was hoping for a decent thread, not a bashing one.

>>589159
I've refreshed the thread since said post was deleted, but if I recall correctly you said "Tell us about it". That's not asking for my thoughts, that's demanding I explain to you something you could easily take less than 2 seconds of your time to figure out for yourself. And I don't take too kindly to catering to demands like that.

Maybe it was a simple case of me misconstruing the intended connotation of your words, who knows? But to me you just came across as blunt and demanding, and that isn't the type of attitude that fosters discussion. It doesn't make me inclined to discuss it.
