don't rule out a gif or png-8 either. Photoshop's save for web feature is pretty good about showing you the filesize / quality tradeoffs.

and if you wanted to pass off an RCR drawing, I'm sure I or these guys could pull it.

Okay, I have a quick question, I've searched through the thread and maybe I missed it.

But I've heard mentions of this debug mode that lets you fly around, how would one do this with ZNES? Man would it make things easier.

it was a code that was for the sonic games only. So that would be gens.

I don't know if you want any more suggestions or not and I really don't care which map it is(though I'd prefer the one that's on the far right of the map and has a tall hill in the middle, sorry I can't remember the name right now). I do want specific characters though. If you could get a map showing a female lancer, a male samurai, Beowulf, Ramza, and a female calculator then I would be obliged to do I don't know what. Maybe I can draw a picture for you or something. But please have them spread out a little bit.

Please?!

edit- also does anyone have a link to some sprites of different FFT characters? I want to make them into my icons for my hard drives and windows explorer.


I got a few possibles, what I can try to do though, is get you those sprites.
I'll .rar up some and let you know.

Metal Slug 2 or X, I forget which.

Last level. Have the far right be the boss UFO and then whatever else you can fit going to the left in 1600x1200. This would be amazing, as it's swarmed with enemies before the boss, and at the boss, there's tanks and soldiers and a giant battle going on with the UFO, so plenty of ways to make it look :krad:

If you did this I'd love you.

I'm trying to think of some things I could try to do but mine will probably suck.

I can try, I actually just beat that tonight. If anyone wants to do the ufo one, I can try the mummy level on metal slug 2.

PROTIP: Use Kawaks for its "Shot factory" where you can remove any goddamn sprite (be it d00ds or the background itself!) you want. It also makes the games pertyer with its funky filters.

Edit: It has cheats/Invulnerability as well.


...yikes I'm almost done with this one and I had to do a lot of touching up.


this will definitely help in the future. Thanks.

Which ones are you planning on doing? In my head, I've got Weigraf making the deal with the zodiac stone, and that one scene where that dude gets stabbed (I hope you know what I mean..it's been too long since I replayed this game).

I skipped the one where the thieves Take the job of killing GafGarion (which I can do) I've done Zirekile falls, then the next would be Mustadio at Junktown, next would Cardinal Draclau killing the junktown gang leader. Then the Golgorand execution fight. Then would be the Cardinal Draclau boss fight. That's what I see so far. Maybe the gafgarion Fight before that.



The Wiegraf stabbing is in Chapter 1. And the deal he makes is later I think.

for metal slugs I used zawak and the "shot factory" setting where you can remove individual sprites.
