Tip: Switch palace switches normally disappear if you replay the level, but if you insert them as direct Map16 and use the hex-edit at 070B2 in the ROM map, you can replay the level without a problem.

It's that time of year again: time for me to open another booth in a convention hall that apparently is run by pirates and takes place on the open sea this time. #w{O.O}

Well, I WAS going to present a hack for this C3; unfortunately, I needed a little bit of help and waited too long to ask for it, and I want to make ABSOLUTELY SURE I don't wind up with another rejected hack. So the hack will have to wait for later.

In the meantime, why don't you enjoy some ExGFX?


(imitating a cheesy game show announcer)

It's a new ExGFX PACKAGE!!!

(while this music is playing in the background...) UPDATE on November 14, 2010: Hyperlink went to a YouTube video that the user took down. Unfortunately, I kinda sorta really needed that video, as I don't know how many users on this site are fans of The Price is Right; therefore I can't just say "while Beanstalker is playing in the background. That, by the way, was the name of the music. You'll have to Google it on your own.

This brand-new movie studio foreground ExGFX, based on GFX18 (the Castle 1 and Castle 2 tilesets), is best used for your "end of demo" levels to help further give your hack that "unfinished" feel!

Comes complete with a green screen, a blue screen, a steel beam, one of those big microphones you sometimes see in blooper reels (but those microphones are fuzzy and this one isn't, even though I tried hard to make it fuzzy), a wire connecting the mic to the steel beams, a director's chair, and a tile floor!

It's a wonderful prize package worth $0.00!


(interrupts music with a record needle scratch)

And now, the technical details.

Currently, there's no background. Also, I wanted to put in a few more things like spotlights, but my drawing skills aren't yet advanced enough for those.

The green screen uses the last three colors of Palette 5, and the blue screen uses the last three colors of palette 7. The director's chair uses Palette 6. The microphone uses colors 2 and 3 of Palette 4, while its support cord uses the last three colors of the same palette. The steel beam uses colors 1 and 2 of Palette 3. The floor uses Palette 2, and both the floor and the steel beam look best with FG Palette 3.

All objects act like tile 0x25 except for the bottom portion of the director's chair, which acts like tile 0x100.

This package only contains the base ExGFX and Map16 pages. No sample level or palettes were included as it's a relatively simple and easy-to-make set that uses vanilla palettes. When using the steel beam, go from left to right in the Map16 window (as that's how it tessellates) and make it span your entire level (like the tree in the forest tileset; tileset-specific object 33).

And finally, the 16×16 screenshot has the microphone's colors reversed, as my hack has colors 2 and 3 of Palette 4 switched.

I sincerely hope you enjoy this ExGFX. Oh, and since this site's admins always threaten those who don't participate in C3 with Floating Munchers™, here's a gray P-Switch as a bonus for attending this booth!

Now, get me off this ship! |-O

Now there are 2 of us who hate the season's theme. Yay. Great job, though.
Music got taken down haha

Looks nice, I suppose.
Looks cartoony :D
These graphics aren't really all that great, but I suppose they could fit in one or two situations.

Probably the best place they'd fit is a bonus room, I guess.
I like them, but like Kristian I can't really think of any type of level they'd fit in.

You do realize that I said in the original post that these graphics were intended for "end-of-demo" levels, right? Well, that's what type of level they'd fit in! #w{=D}

As far as I can tell, I've never seen any ExGFX on this site solely for demo ends, so this ExGFX, if I uploaded it and it got accepted, would be the first of its kind.

Since you are the "director" of your ROM hack, an end of demo level is effectively you saying, "Cut!" And when that happens, the "lights" go down and the "cameras" quit rolling on your hack, exposing the "studio" that the hack was being "recorded" in, as well as its "props".

But if you want to use 'em for a bonus level, go right ahead. #w{:s}

Thanks. #w{=3}

OH SHI-!!!

I just edited my original post to reflect this. Thanks for letting me know that! #w{O.O}


Well, thanks for the comments, everyone. But since some users had reservations about this GFX set, I won't upload it to the ExGFX section right away. Looks like I have to go back to the drawing board! #w{=)}
