Topic: Hacked version of Harmony of Dissonance made by my friend

[lovecastlevania]

Well, the two I mentioned are very simple color hacks. I mean, I could do that and I'm a complete rookie at rom hacking.

The beam is a simple 16 color palette. The damage flashing is 16 x 16 color palettes, which shift one into the next one.

And well, i have all of the sotn background tiles. However most of them are with no palettes, so dunno if they'll be of any use. THey can be found in my sotn spriterips site folder listing.

I just realized the entrance to your castlevania rip site is actually that smile icon Thanks a lot, Serio.

This looks awensome! just what I've been waiting for. I've been meaning to ask you; are you chinese or do you just speak it?

I am a Chinese actually, staying in Canada. So good to see all you like this hacked version. The good thing is most of these bugs will be fixed soon. And, Justex will be improved.

very cool hack!!!
maybe put alucard in there next:)
or some other guys or how about some fan edit sprite:)
and give simon a better sprite would be cool too to go with his new jump;)
and i'd love to see an remake with sotn sprites and backgrounds that sound great;)
keep up the great work!!!!

and Serio it cool to see you got all of sotn sprites and tiles on your website:)
very cool;)

I do know there is a hacked aos, which players can play as Alucard. Here are some screencuts.



But it still has plenty of bugs

[Donvermicelli]

How do you get into the final boss room with Julius?

[tonyjih]

Giant BUG Fixed

Gear Bug in clock tower Fixed.

Start the game with level.1

Now you can begin the game without all relics...

Julius's cursed palette is fixing...

need new code to fix...

[lovecastlevania]

How do you get into the final boss room with Julius?

Julius is based on Maxim, so the final boss room will be available after clearing all the other bosses.

[Dark Nemesis]

I would like to ask you a favor if it isn't much.Can you provide a link to hacked AoS? I'm just curious even if it has bugs to see how it is to play with Alucard.

[Long John Silver]

Speaking of final boss. Would it be possible to reenable Maxim and Dracula 1 for Julius? And another thing, the cross item crash is way too overpowered. It can destroy each and every boss before your mp runs out. Even Dracula.

Julius's cursed palette is fixing...

The poisoned palette suffers from the same error.

Also I was wondering, how hard would it be to make the special cloaks alter J's trail colors? Like the emerald cape giving green trail, twilight cape very dark etc.

There was also a bug where J hit an enemy as soon as he started his whip animation. Then again when the whip extended. And once again when he was hiding the whip.

And on whip topic, I assume the crouching whip was impossible? He uses a dagger there, and the christopher's soul whip attachment spawns the fireballs way too far from the dagger.

Actually, it's well done also.

I told PUNKEMNX about these ideas. He said he would try(Seems he got some solutions already). He'll fix them as fast as he can, and he'll add more new features .

And on whip topic, I assume the crouching whip was impossible?

The crouching whip is possible. It's just PUNKEMNX made it like that

He uses a dagger there, and the christopher's soul whip attachment spawns the fireballs way too far from the dagger.

I donnt quite understand this part.
Fireballs?

[Long John Silver]

There's a special whip tip called "Christopher's soul" or "Bullet tip" in the english release. It will fire fireballs from your whip if your health is full.

Right, I remember it now.
I'll ask PUNKEMNX and see if he can fix that
One problem, since Julius is based on Maxim, now, Maxim's techniques can not be used any more..
We'll try if we can do something..

[Long John Silver]

Perhaps it'd be better to base him on Juste then. With some alterations you could probably make J feel much more like the aos one.

Mostly talking about the whip spin ability, the ability to get a [cool] or [good] message when you catch the orb in a special way, have the whip tip visible on the end of your whip if you equip it and other stuff Maxim never could use.

Enable the whip spin is easy, but it need to reprogram to make 

the whip graphic for both juste and J.

maybe we'll add it in future update...

but it need time to do.

my english is crappy , hope you can understand what i am talking about  :p

Copy and paste it into the browser. It works.

Indeed, it should work. I was slightly disappointed with Alucard, but who am I to say, I can't do hacking worth crap. D:

On the other hand, the altered version of HoD rocks! I've noticed the bugs listed already and haven't really noticed anything else. But this is drawing me into HoD again! Hopefully things get patched up to perfection down the road. : )

[mgfcortez]

well it should work don't make it work.
i'm guessing you two got it somewhere else.lol
or maybe it worked before today but it don't today:P
like i said in the post before it'll download start out fast but then slow down to nothing and not download anything even after 20mins or so.
or it'll finish before its done but i still don't get it downloaded:(
how about uploading it to a better place that works:P
