TSRP-X - The Official Thread (W3-Castle screenshots)

[FireSeraphim]

As you may all recall, a few weeks ago I discussed the possibility of working on a TSPR themed SMBX episode with FPI himself as this Gmail
conversation can attest:

Spoiler: show

After that, Wind and Valtteri joined my project team. We were waiting until we had World 1 done before we made a project thread. I have since further discussed and finalized the plot of this SMBX Episode with FPI.

It was a fine evening, Luigi had long since went to bed. Toad was staying over at Luigi's for the night on account of him accidentally losing the key to his house. Suddenly a dimensional rift opened, with Zycloboo, a haunt of Boos and Thirlox stepping out of the rift.

Zycloboo: I still say we should go with my plan first, with it the Mushroom Kingdom will most certainly meet it's doom by my hands. Mario would be a much more fitting choice for what we have in store.
Thirlox: Bah. I triple checked this plan and there's no way Luigi could possibily fudge this up. Besides we simply need one of the two plumbers to activate the Power Switch and Luigi is the logical candidate because he isn't as strong willed as Mario, thus being more easily manipulated.
Zycloboo: And all to power up your Glitch Cannon Mark II. Do I need to remind you what happened...
Thirlox: Of-course not, I remember all too well how Mario destroyed our home universe and I made sure to put in a failsafe to prevent it from destroying the Second Reality.
Zycloboo: Good, Then I shall not delay this promising event any longer...

With that Zycloboo cast his Inter-Dimensional magic on Luigi's House and send it to the Second Reality, where our story begins...

All right, let's roll!

This looks extremely intresting.
This will look great when finished.

I get your intent, but I don't think limiting talking NPCs and RPG like talking is very TSRP2R-like. Remember

Spoiler: show

Catgoom Kingdom and Battle of The Mages? In fact, FPI changed the Power Supply activation from the changed Switch Palace message to a custom cutscene, a overdone change if I say so myself but that's the plot ideal for TSRPR type stuff to me.

I think it would serve you well to make this non canon so you could do pretty much anything.

There's a reason why I have the castle levels and the power supply level claimed by me. I'm still going to be doing TSRP-ish plot advancement but to be honest most of the potential LD haven't played TSRP from what I can honestly tell and may inadvertently fudge or come in conflict with the "canon" of the hack series. The reason why I'm exempt is because I played both TSRPR and TSRP2R and because I have discussed parts of this project with FPI ever since the first email. I'm generally aiming to do the best I can and ensuring everyone does the best they can as well. I will keep in mind what you have said though, I'm just the one handling the plot so that everyone else can make the necessary levels. I'm open to lifting the restriction on a per level basis if the level itself stands up on it own in quality.

Silverdeoxys' redrawn pack would be extremely useful for this. It even has Palettes to help recolor stuff.

This should be sticky/non-global announcement.

So looking forward to this. I'm a huge TSRP fan, and I'm glad it's made its way to SMBX.

[FireSeraphim]

I just got done adding new screenshots to the opening post (first post of this thread). Open up the spoiler and take a look. (The reason why I put screenshots in a spoiler is because there are people on this forum who may suffer from a slower internet connect and keeping screenshots in a spoiler kinda helps alleviate their loading problems. I also do it out of habit due to my time on the ZDoom Forums.)

[Darkonius Mavakar]

The pc has finally been ordered, it should arrive soon so i can work on this project!
The new screenshots look great!

You can join the team if you want to.

[Shinbison-Kof]

This project seems promising, I like especially of world map. The graphics are great, the design like "smw hacks" and seems fun! Good job!

[Wind]

It's like 1992 all over again!

That looks amazing!

uuhm, aren't there a bit too many paragoombas...?
(unless they're replacing the red smb3 praragoombas)

Is this a staple of The Second Reality Projects? I've never been a fan of episodes that pad out their length by re-using official levels.

TSRPR had a remake of a SML level so we decided to continue the trend here. The level consists of three sections (each recreations of levels from SML2) and I decided to make pretty major edits on some of them

?!@?!@ that made me realize we don't have a multiple midpoint patch for SMBX* unlike TSRP2R!

*Someone made a weird lunalua solution that's so complicated not even I'm using it

it's not even that bad eesh, be grateful it was done.
