SOR2 SMS (master system) & Gamegear version

[celestinx]

Mod Name: not too sure yet but it will be something like SOR2 sms remake

Story: same as SOR2 sms/game gear versions

Other plans: for the levels that are in both versions i will only add once but levels or bits of levels that are only in one version will be added as well

so far im going with mixed updated and old graphics

Images

more images to come soon




help
please use the poll so that i know what you guys want from this remake

Levels
ill add a list of what i have done here later

EDIT 19/march/2012

level 1 is 100% finished - levels and enemies

[however i may be going back to it later to change it to make it better suited to v5 [sms was hard because the badguys would attack quickly before you can attack rather than more health so ill have to be unfaithful to the original by giving them more health other wise one grandupper and bye bye sub boss.. that just wont do.. it'll be too easy and boring. so my update will adjust this

Credits
As well as myself [Celestin X] doing this i hope to use some levels re-created by joyjoyfulrabbit for some of the sms stages that were not in the megadrive version
some parts from sor2 remake by CajNatalie has been used and mixed in
also as always a special thanks to bomberlink and bombergames

EDIT 16/march/2012

stages i have fully re-created so far [but as this is a wip, changes may still be made to these levels]

stage 1,5,6,7

half done 2,3

and stage 4 [A and B] is thanks to joyjoyfulrabbit ill get to work on C last

the stages that are done have been made but no bad guys yet

ill have to play through both the mastersystem and gamegear versions of the
game to get a list of badguy placements [anyone care to help with that please let me know]
i only want to play both of them once as i hate playing any sor that isnt v5 nowadays
[ill play on the hardest setting and and all those badguys in if anyone else wants to help
with the other settings please let me know if no one helps ill create with only one setting

im also planning on having two modes

1) full sms/gg mode
2) sms/gg only levels mode [with just the levels that arent the same-ish]
[i wont include a original graphics mode as the poll didnt seem to favor the idea

update

some images of levels redone so far [the poll has gone with v5/genesis style graphics only
so im trying to do that however some stages will be hard to do ill try my best







what do you think?

[Iceweb38]

The idea is pretty interesting, now I'm eager to see how it's going to be executed.

[badjab]

the ground here shouldn't be reflective. looking pretty good so far though you could use a bit more detail.

[celestinx]

update 2

also Badjab i know the ground shouldn't be reflective but ill just trying it out [i tried both im not sure what one looks better.. the remake wont be perfect like cajnatalie's as its moving up from 8bit to 16bit things have to be redone/changed.. some things look crap in the original so some changes may be in this mod to make it look a bit better

for example in the original this level just has a black background... boring so ive changed that





wip the level wont look bad like this image i was just getting the 8 bit into it and will edit/draw over this later



Another issue, the bad guys in the sms version all have low health even on hard so that will be changed other wise it will be far to easy to play on the v5 engine also some of the names are not in the v5 game
i wont be making a pallet or name changes pack with this, ill just find the closest thing i can, that'll have to do.

sorry for the thread bump but.. The new poll has been up for over a week and

Total votes : 0

[CajNatalie]

Never played the SMS games so I can't vote... have no idea who the boss is, the setting, and nor can I honestly care for the SMS versions.

[Don Vecta]

lol, fuck it, i'm, drunkand voted for Rudra XD

[Neo Metal Shadow]

I voted for Rudra too.

This mod looks great, good luck Celestinx

[JoyJoyfulRabbit]

SMS version suck with SOR2. This is GG version

[CajNatalie]

I'll vote Yamato, then.
The invisibility thing, combined with trying to go for long range attacks and failing.

[SiddtheKidd]

^ that. He's also pretty close the predator with his palette. voted yamato.

[JAGUARHX]

In my opinion: Yamato + ''shoots by Snipers/bulleyes/targets'' in the screen.

In the very hard mode: Yamato+snipers+Rudra.

[celestinx]

mod has been put on hold, i have some problems with some areas on this mod so if you would like to help please sign up you're name and if i agree ill send you the mod files that i have so far and we can work on it together.
the level im having trouble with is alian bridge, as this level is in v5's main game i was hoping i could use that version but i dont think im allowed, ive tried and failed to make this level 3 times it always looks bad..

if i cant get help ill have to us 8bit rips from the original rather than a remake.. but that wont look very good.
re-creating this level in full is too hard for me, the background is complex as well...
other than that most of it is pretty stright forward as its mainly editing which i can do.

Any updates on this coolish mod of yours
