Fan Stuff / Re: Spritework Request & Showcase Thread

« Last post by Mikepjr on August 25, 2023, 05:09:20 AM »

I'm working on a project i need assets for.
Is there maybe someplace i can find fan made assets in a more convenient location?
I wouldn't mind getting some help with it either way.
I canned my old CV project and i'm working on something more level based.
It used to be easy to find fans wanting to contribute tilesets and such to fan projects.
If i have to, i'll start a thread showing what i've got so far.
Looking for custom assets that are detailed like 16 bit.. anything like the SNES or PS1 or DS CV games..

The GBA OSTs sound really noisy. Staticky, muffled, that sort of thing. Fan rips sound a lot more clear. I get the feeling Konami simply gave LRG the CD master files and called it a day.

Better recording quality, or will it be the same old botched Konami masters we love to hate?

Just asking because I don't know:  What was botched with the previous releases?  I've collected most of the official soundtrack CDs, but now that I think about it, I've left most of them sealed and just downloaded the music to burn my own CDs.

Hardcore Gaming 101 / Re: What game(s) have you been playing lately?

Played through the Quake II remaster on medium difficulty. It's now a much better game than it originally was on PC with its subtle gameplay tweaks that go a long way. I never used to be a fan of this game and now I am.

It includes the N64 version, or rather a rebuild of it using Quake II's engine. (More specifically, Nightdive's KEX Engine remaster of the Quake II engine.) The N64 original used a modified version of the Quake engine used for Quake 64, so it actually plays quite a bit different. As such, it's not the perfect recreation of Quake II 64 that I'd hoped it would be, but it's a good effort, just not something that replaces the original.

I've played Hades. It's cute for what it is and the characters and voices fit well. There's also some good light comedy too. The only thing that really puts it down for me is that it's one of those games where you are required to die in order to eventually make your way to the end of the game. It's a concept that doesn't really suit my play style and eventually I got tired of it as I felt I was getting nowhere.
