Introduce Yourself!

I find it a bit difficult to believe that spriters are rare. :P

MetroidMst · July 13, 2010, 03:55:23 PM

I find them rare.

Power Missile · July 13, 2010, 09:33:17 PM

Hey guys, this is (or was) AhAhA, from now on I will no longer be known as AhAhA. I've had it changed to Power Missile. I got tired of my old name and thought of this one while thinking of Metroid objects.

Zhs2 · July 14, 2010, 03:39:44 AM

I put your old name as your custom title so people don't get too confused, seeing as how you're a (semi-)newbie around these parts.

P.JBoy · July 14, 2010, 04:39:55 AM

P.JBoy, that is, Patrick Johnston, I'm 16. Been hacking for 3½ years now, primarily on Fusion, with some tidbits of Super Metroid hacking. I'm an ASM guy, I do nothing but ASM hacking, both Thumb/ARM, and 65816. I also know C++, and some python and lua. I have some pretty cool videos on my youtube account, and some documents on my webpage. I've been on M2K2 since November 2005, and SCU shortly afterwards and stayed with it until its end with the name 'glitch spreader', now I'm here too.

Zhs2 · July 17, 2010, 07:13:08 AM

Mostly an in-joke. If you really want to know, look up the member PZ-Powa. Now, keep it to introductions plx.

Hiroshi Mishima · July 28, 2010, 12:57:35 AM

Hi there. I'm not new at all, but it appeared as those a few older members were introducing themselves, so I thought I should as well. This is really just a cleaver attempt to be witty as I've got entirely too much time on my hands. So instead of posting something that no one will find funny, I could be working on my sprite comic, playing a video game (I've got several I'm playing atm) or I could getting back to beta-testing something for a friend of mine.

Instead, I think I'll lurk around the forum a bit longer and catch up on what I've missed. Nice meeting you all, and hope to enjoy my.. your.. ours... whatever, you get the idea - stay.

Borderjumper67 · July 28, 2010, 01:08:53 AM

Hi guys I Guess I should go ahead introduce myself since I've been here for a year and a half....I think

Phazar · July 28, 2010, 01:25:34 PM

Welcome then, even though you've been here for awhile! Hopefully we will see stuff from you this year.

Silver Skree · July 28, 2010, 06:09:30 PM

Indeed. I recognize you from YouTube, Borderjupmper. There are several people you can ask here for individual help, myself included, if you ever need it. Drop by the IRC some time or toss a PM my way.

Hiroshi Mishima · July 29, 2010, 07:20:33 PM

That reminds me, I need to eventually actually put up something I've worked on in SMILE. Besides just Silver seeing it.

Phazar · August 18, 2010, 06:51:33 PM

Welcome to the forum! And I think I do remember you from M2K2 as well.

Misery · August 30, 2010, 03:47:39 PM

Hey everyone. I just registered here, but I've actually been around for quite some time. A few years ago I found Super Metroid Limit, which I to this day consider to be the best SM hack, but I've played almost all the others too. It followed that I realized there was an editing program for the game - SMILE, which was still in its early stages. Before that, the only "hacking" I had done was to edit save files with a hex editor, with guides telling me what offsets to change. Anyway, that's really when I started to get interested in hacking SM (and other games later on).

I've been going back to hacking SM irregularly since then, it took a while before I found the m2k2 hacking community and started to follow that, learning more about using SMILE and hex editor to change the game. I've kept getting new ideas and abandoned them, so I've really only been making test hacks to figure stuff out - in the beginning I spent most of the time learning new stuff, and later on I would spend a lot of time only on level design, only to lose interest (or get a new idea) after finishing one or a few rooms.

As for this site, I've been checking out what's going on every now and then, ever since its existence was announced on m2k2. At that point I was busy with life and not very active in SM hacking. I intended to wait with registering here until I actually had something to show, but it felt like it was about time now anyway.

I'll probably post some of my old stuff when I've gotten used to these forums.
Apologies in advance to anyone who doesn't give a damn about my background and wasted their time reading this post, which is quite verbose for a simple introduction.

squishy_ichigo · August 30, 2010, 06:54:27 PM

Welcome to our humble little home! :D

Its always great to have cool new people around. I saw the screenshots you posted, and I must say I'm impressed!

Good luck with progress, we are always happy to help! If you ever want to hang with us hit us up on irc.esper.net channel: #metconst

Misery · August 31, 2010, 03:11:31 AM

Yeah, I'll probably get onto irc sometimes. I hope. You guys seem like a lively bunch.

Hiroshi Mishima · September 01, 2010, 12:42:13 AM

Just don't feed the trolls.

Masked_Felix · September 05, 2010, 11:22:44 PM

Hi, everybody. I'm new to the forum, but I've been on the IRC for a bit now. A friend-well, a person that sometimes talks to me and gives me advice- told me I should introduce myself, so here it goes.

I'm a third year student of Computer Science at A&M and a huge comic fan. My two main hobbies are Space and collecting Batman Action figures. My current collection count is 1017 and growing with every allowance week. I'm not really a big hacker or anything, but I figured that I needed a good hobby related to my major to help spur on my growth, and given how Metroid is a big space tail, it seems pretty ideal for me.

I guess, in short, I'm pleased to make your acquaintance and hope that this is the start of a long friendship between us all.

(Here's a semi-recent picture of me from Freshman year.)
