You guys ... really, this is simple. They just stole the time machine that Capcom used to learn what reploids were going to be like, and went into the future, to a time when Super Metroid was completed. Then they just brought it back to 1994 and said "here's our new game."

i liked the parallel worlds remake so i'm not apposed to the idea.

Sorry I've been away for a while. I think I've come off completely wrong somehow, and I'd like to clarify at this time. I'm not out to make a hack with anything from Phazon. It seems from your response that you got the impression that I was trying to take things from Phazon Hack and put it into something else. I apologize if that's how I came off, because that's not it at all.

My goal was to take just a couple of the little touches that are in Phazon Hack 0.3 ... and put them into Phazon Hack 0.2. That's it. It really is just Phazon Hack 0.2X.

mainly i want SM phazon to be original looking as possible, so please don't use 0.3 GFX unless we talk. (the HUD thing is cool)

Well, that I've done is, to sum it up, I figured out how to get the digital numbers, and to make sure that the colors were correct. In this version, the numbers are white on a blue background (the original colors, just rearranged to look all awesome).

In the menu screen, the text that says "Dark Samus" is copied from 0.3. The word "Phaz" with the arrow has been made the medium blue and the letters reworked to match the font of the others, making it much more legible.

Fixed the bubble that says "BOMB"

The "broken" metroid in the death sequence is now whole.

If I recall, that's it. I just tweaked those things into 0.2 as a personal experiment, so that I could play through 0.2 with these things in. I hesitated to put it up here, but if you're curious, or if anyone else is, I could post a patch and you'll see just what I mean.

The only reason I even was trying to do this was to learn a little, and also because I'm such a fan of 0.2 but am pretty confident that someone like me who might love to play it but with the digital font, etcetera, was not going to be able to do so otherwise. 0.3 has some really cool stuff, but in some ways it's just a different experience. The goal was to just spiffy it up a bit. :)

My save station? yeah thats fine i can make a new one for 0.4

Oh, there's no need for that. Actually I kinda hope the canisters remain in 0.4 because they're so cool and unique. Again, I think I came off wrong before. See, even if I did get that figured out, I'd just be putting the 0.3 station into 0.2. I never intended to jack your stuff for some other hack; I'd think that would be pretty messed up, especially without asking permission first. Phazon Hack would be, and still is, completely original in these regards.

Besides, my issue with the save station canister was that the broken glass part appears to be a graphics foreground item, and I wasn't sure how to find that and get it into place. :)

SM Ph 0.4 will have some added GFX sets so i can make changes to the phazon mines, people running for there lives, 2 alt. endings, 2 alt. dimensions, and more collectables(less dickish then 0.3).

Sounds awesome, man. :)

I see bubbles. Wonderful bubbles. I WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT THEM ANYWAY. The palette is pretty good, until the glow. . . Seriously, remove the glow, or change the glow to a palette that will fit with the bubbles better.

All right, I've updated it. Hopefully to the satisfaction of the people.

You're welcome.  I look forward to reading it.

Equip Plasma and Spazer at the same time, presumably. (Does it still require pressing left+A at the same time (e.g. the Var cheat)?)

I did that, the game freezes. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Ok, finally got it working. I just realized something... Bomb Torizo is immune to Ice Beam...

I also encounter a bug in the game. I tried to kill Phantoon with the Plasma/Spazer combo and he didn't die. His death animation didn't start, he just stood there.

Yes, my post was mostly meant for Metak. This isn't the first time that he's gotten up in arms over something he's decided to graciously share with the community (though I think this is the first where the feeling is that he might be holding it over people's heads.) The overall idea is to work together so that everyone knows how to do X or Y, especially after you've released it in patch format instead of withholding it for some super awesome next hack you're working on. That's the point of us being a community and this thread, right?

it seems some people don't realize no one wants to be treated as a vending machine...

Just to clear things up, I wasn't demanding you post your information. Rather, I was hoping to encourage you to do so

Apologies for the lengthy delay in updates, but I have good news. I just got an email from the features editor saying the article will go live on Friday!

I'll edit this post with a link later. Thanks for your help, everyone!

It's just despicable, isn't it Quietus?

I'll go lick my wounds.
