I don't generally like shooting ideas down, but Metroid Super Mission had this idea quite some time before you. =\

[Quietus]

Are you sure?  I think there are currently three different Metroid remakes in progress, and I can't think for the life of me which was first.

[DonnyDonovan]

This was discussed at length at M2k2.  The idea of a Metroid remake has been around forever and no one specifically stole the idea from anyone else in terms of the WIPs.  The authors of these hacks are doing some different things, employing some different ideas, and all are supporting the others.

I had been watching this hack quite a bit at m2k2.
Good to see a topic here.

And there's nothing wrong with having more then 1 Metroid remake.. it adds a bit of variety.

[tbolt76]

Actually There will be some other ideas.  Ive you have seen my other post in m2k2  you will discover that i have added a couple of rooms  in my game thatI  Made entirely myself. But you have to be willing to  explore . Forget what you know about the first metroid.  And  everyone will be in the game  even all the mini bosses  and draygon and phantoon.  MaridiaCrateria and wreck ship will be redesigned and hopefully everything will  come out good  but  i just need to get past this random plm popping up problem though  i have since removed all added plms from affected rooms

Now that I think of it, my above post was unnecessary. I forgot that Rebuild, Overhaul, and Redesign are all stretched toward a remake of Super. In the case of absence mindedness from ~3 hours ago (and rage) I can now say, "Good luck and fly on!" ^.^;

[tbolt76]

Good news folks  All areas of old zebes are done!!!  Brinstar  norfair  tourian and both hideouts are done  now its off to marida and the ship and crateria

This picture's background is horrible.. I do hope this is either already fixed, or is on your agenda.

Otherwise, from what I've seen, your doing pretty good on this so far. :3

[FullOfFail]

The BG definitely needs to be fixed. It looks like you just randomly placed it with no regard to purpose or design. The part to the right when it splits into darkness looks horrible. It almost looks like steps, but no really. You can tell you put the BG on layer 1. You need to either put it on layer 2 or use the BG editor. The lava could use the top piece of it's bubbles too. Keep tweeking it.

heres some more screens  and i fixed that bg a long time ago

Edit you post and use the [ img ] [/ img ] tags (w/o spaces)! Gotta copy the links of your attached pics and put them between the tags! >.<

[RealRed]

This is something I absolutely hate. Please, please, don't release your hack covered in these.

I don't know where you've uploaded those picks or you changed palette, but those are just flat-out fugly. We all want to see what those pics look like correctly so try to re-upload or fix your palette.

[squishy_ichigo]

Its not a palette problem.  He just has the brightness level for SMILE set higher than normal.  This would be to fix those problems that Bloodsonic told him about. ;D

[tbolt76]

heres my attempt at yellow brinstar 


[attachment deleted by admin]

[personitis]

Rather bright. Should be more gold than yellow.

[tbolt76]

I have replaced the screenshot above with my last attempt  and lot of people seemed to like it  let me know  what you think

[personitis]

I think it looks better. But don't let my single opinion influence you... unless I misread your words and you ment to say others like the new pic...?

[tbolt76]

Heres some more from old school

[JAM]

In Kraid's room and in the room before that there is something wrong with palette (or tiles). Look at cable and chain tiles. Why there are a green dots? Dots should have darkest color. Also, green line in the pipe tiles looks nor very well...

As for Spore Spawn, door to the left are wrong (40 FF FF 40). Should be 41 FF FE FD

In the room leading to Ridley there are also errors in the floor. These white bricks are looking segmented.

All other things are looking good! Keep up the good work!

[tbolt76]

I have redone kraids room  tell me what you think  also this mini kraid is now a force to be reckoned with  youll need alot of super missiles to tackle him  and heres the entrance to tourian  ill add the stautes later if i can

I like the statues. Now if only you could make it so you need to shoot them to cross. A lot harder to do with SM physics, but it could be done with a block the only disappears when both statues are shot into the "on" position.

[pomtt]

i like what you have done to the game one question to get the plat form to work did you set it in the state properties that once you have beaten both bosses then you can cross
