ERIS 2012

[MetroidMst]

Did you collect the "map" at all? If you are where I think you are, collecting the map is what opens the final Gray door.

[DonnyDonovan]

No, never found anything like that.  I guess I'll keep exploring the area.

[MetroidMst]

It is the log entry from the scientists. Very, very close to Crocomire.

[DonnyDonovan]

Found it, beat it, saved the child.  Totally forgot how amazing this hack was.  Now I'm on to the 1.3 version of Z-factor.  I had played through about the first half of 1.1 but it sounds like much has changed.

well you know what, READ MY LORE bitches.

The link is broken... can someone reupload please?

[Quietus]

The link works fine for me, and takes you to DMan's site, as it should.  If not, have you tried the Hacks section, on the Main Site? :^_^:

I've tried all I get is this

Eris is the only patch file I have this problem with, the others work perfectly

[Quietus]

Then it's likely a header issue.  DMan's hacks require a headered ROM, not the usual unheadered version.  If you haven't already got one, copy your ROM.  Then download SMILE, load it, open your copied ROM, and click on Tools > Header > Add Header.

[dsc]

-_- THATS The LINK, not anything else! What I spoilered is what appears each time I click the link!

[Zhs2]

I can't say it doesn't work for me either (because it does) but perhaps your browser reads its MIME-type as plain text for some strange reason, a likely reason being that DMan's site does not serve a specific MIME-type for IPS (or if you mean ours, I'll investigate shortly.) In any case, you could right-click the link and Save As...

[dsc]

problem solved, I should've used the right click save as then clicking the link for it to download

Edit: Oh by the way.. I can't view the start menu in the station parts of this hack, anyway to fix this?

[Smiley]

Start is disabled in that area if I remember correctly. Not a glitch.

[Digital_Mantra]

The Eris station rooms are in the Ceres tileset and region, where pausing is disabled within the original coding.
I could have relocated it all to another tileset but I was lazy.
This is also why there is some CRE garble during station to region room transitions.

[Quietus]

The start button thing is just a standard option within SMILE.  It's on the second page of Edit > Special > Game Behaviour, and you can just select 'None'.

[Parabox]

(01/11) - Let's play Super Metroid Eris! - Brought a romhack into MY house.
A let's player my friends likes had a friend play Eris '12 (he doesn't play ROMhacks himself), and offers some criticism on ROMhacks, Super Metroid ones specifically.

[Quietus]

Aww, you guys could have eased them in a little more gently. :^_^:

Edit: And having watched a bit (without sound), I presume they're being guided?  There's no way anybody would figure that first part out so quickly. :O_o:

Edit 2: I've just reread that sentence about three times, and now it makes sense - The no-hack player isn't the one playing. :oh:

"A stoner called D-Mantra"  :pwuh:

[MetroidMst]

"A stoner called D-Mantra"  :pwuh:

He had DMan nailed from the start just by the look of the hack.

In less seriousness, I watched this a while ago, and it is one of the better LPs out there. Nice to hear some comments from people who really aren't around or part of the community at all. Gives some useful insight.

[danidub]

I've made a new interractive map for Eris.

[Quietus]

I see you got the toggle thing working.  Excellent. :^_^:

[ianfrombristol]

I've made a new interractive map for Eris.

Now that is some fine cartography you got going on there  :^_^:

[Digital_Mantra]

So awesome!

[Steel Sparkle]

This game was a ton of fun and i loved it all the way through!Great job! took me just over 3hrs and got 84% of the items

[SpoOkyMagician]

So, I finally played a hack. For some reason, I decided to play this one... I will admit, I do remember watching someone playing it. Most likely MST. I didn't remember the video exactly so, I consider it a semi blind play though. The final time was... horrible... (9 hours...) However, I did get 80% items. Although, I got a bit lost at times... I had to check/find the map online. I was pretty much not getting anywhere... I checked the map after getting like... Missiles, Supers, Grapple, Morph, Charge, and Bombs. (More/Less) I had no clue where to go from there. It's somewhat open after you get a few items.

Anyway, I really enjoyed the hack. I found it a bit difficult. However, it was an enjoyable difficulty. I would of liked the... "where do I go from here?" paths a bit more obvious but, eh. I love the designs of the rooms. The tiles/rooms are wonderful. If I was to give it a rating, I would say: 8/10. I would recommend playing this for sure. Excellent job Digital_Mantra.
