DKC Atlas Forum

So it was his running I guess when watching it on a video it's hard to notice, either way this makes Rambi not quite the uber force he was in DKC 1. I wonder if Rare did this to balance him out with the other animal buddies.

@ Scraps69- It should but I just noticed a problem with the english patch. Sigh for some reason the map edits I made seem to not be there as they are restored to default. I find this odd because the levels themselves are changed. I going to remove the english link for now and hopefully have it fixed...

Geez Crankyman don't take it so seriously. I just wanted to see what system people liked more, not start a flame war over this. I know I may have said things in Genesis's favor but if there is one thing I wish the Genesis had it would be mode 7. I could name a bunch of Snes that use this, but this i...

After the the positive feedback I had about DKC 1 easy edition I decided to release a patch for DKC 2 that makes it easier. The changes from normal DKC 2 include- -Invincibility barrels, once rare now are very common in the first two areas. - Most of the "powerful enemies" are cut from the...

Sorry for the bump, but I recorded clips of Rambi jumping in the two games and when I compared them it all but confirmed that his jump is indeed shorter then it was in the first game. Here is the video- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozzzTI4Jm80 The pit is the same width, yet Rambi in DKC 2 can't ma...

I was testing Rambi in the SDK2 editor for the last week or so, and I couldn't help noticed Rambi seemed different from his DKC1 self. It seems to me that he runs slower and his jumping ability seems to have decreased from DKC1 (unless of course you count his charge which increases his speed and jum...

Hey folks, I had a chat with Scraps69 and he would like to release the levels I made for this hack as beta test versions. If possible please send some feedback on these levels. Here's the link for both levels in one patch. (Trick Track Trek and Blackout Basement) http://www.mediafire.com/?esakawq4se...

@ Mattrizzle - Yeah I noticed that too I made an image comparing the Zingers of DKC 2 with the first one. The one from the first game matches the background graphics of the wasp hive levels much better then the used in DKC2 itself. I wonder if the Zinger's had a design change very late in game devel...

Hey folks I'm back again and I have updated DKC easy edition you can get the patch here. DKC easy edition V2 download http://www.mediafire.com/?a68mvcebit1b4xi -Changes from first version- -All known sound bugs are fixed. (Some objects had to be restored to their default coding to do this. If you fi...

@ Kiddy14 - You are right Kiddy14 that is still used in the game. It seems that the tag sound may have been spliced together from the old monkey SFX from the first game. the lower pitched part of the tag sound plays very briefly so it is easy to miss.

Hey folks guess what I found even more codes in the game for use with the editor. 0002 = triggers strange event (hovering sound and cannonballs?) 0004 = event that forces the camera to go to the left 000A = Klomp (moves left and right short) 0014 = Klomp (moves left and right really short) 0020 = Kl...

I translated some code in the SDK2 editor here's a list of codes I've found 00B6 = Neek 0A50 = DK barrel breaks on contact 0842 = letter "K" 0844 = letter "O" 0848 = letter "N" 0850 = letter "G" 07FE = Wooden Crate 0836 = Banana coin 000C = Klomp 000E = Klomp ...

I think I may have found a DKC1 leftover in DKC2. Nothing too exciting it appears to be DK's getting tagged SFX from the first game being played when I was using Squawks and shooting nuts with him.

Quote Removed by Moderator Wow that game was made for the SMS and GG didn't know. I noticed something about the Lion King I failed to mention the first time around. In the Lion King when you are riding the ostrich in the second level (Can't wait to be king) you have more time to react and dodge stu...

Quote Removed by Moderator Well I tested what DKC2 would have looked like on the MD and 32x. *NOTE: may not be exact. First the original Snes game. http://a.imageshack.us/img826/3756/skongquestuv10b3000copy.th.png What it would pretty much look like on Genesis. http://a.imageshack.us/img15/852/skon...

- The Genesis' sound-card was vastly inferior to the Snes', (Playing a Power Rangers game on the Snes right next to one on the Genesis makes for an easy comparison) Sadly true the Genesis was really bad at making SFX especially for lightning booms and voices. (Though it's attachment the 32X could p...

Personally I like the Genesis/Megadrive more I do not know why really maybe it's because it has a charm I just did not feel with the Snes (ironically I owned a Snes before a Genesis/Megadrive) aside from the Big N's namesakes and Square's Rpgs I never got into any other Snes games, while with the Me...

Forest Frenzy is pretty much done now but finallising one or two things with Simion32. Here are two pretty interesting screenies. Bug crash and colours of DK: best bug ever.jpg Woah, the first screen seems to show some really bad bugs. Is Simion32 helping you fix that by chance? Anyway I just got b...

Wasn't this mentioned elsewhere on the forum? I suppose that Rare re-used the DKC2 image to build DKC3. I do know that the decompressor function of the game is very similar to DKC2's but has a few modifications. Thats probably what they did. I'm pretty sure that is what Rare did. Why create an engi...

Heh yeah no problem - any aspect of my levels anyone is free to use which is what part of this hack is about = showing people what can be done with DK editing tools and motivate, inspire and broaden peoples imaginations to make arDKC levels. And it seems to have worked ;) . Oh did I mention I found...

Personally I never got over the voice change when they traded companies everyone sounds like bad imitations of their old voices. I've heard that they're just annoying and for unknown reasons Giovanni hasn't fired them yet... I recall him saying once that for all intents and purposes they are fired ...

Approx 50% forest frenzy complete. I hope you don't mind if I stole one or two of your ideas aperson (DKC easy) and Kong Fu (Stop and Go) for one tiny bit - though it's been changed to my interpretation of course ;). This level is pretty frantic and you will constantly need to move though I plan to...

I was trying out the new DKedit and had a great idea, why not port some of the GBC levels into the game. With these two hacks you can play both Necky Nutmare and the longer Winky's Walkway in SNES quality. For Necky Nutmare (Overwrites Manic Mincers) Link- http://www.mediafire.com/?qzf5nxsdxxioa7h S...

Wow the hack just keeps getting better and better I'm so pumped. Do you Think I could work on Trick Track Trek and Blackout Basement Scraps69? I think I have some great ideas for those levels.

The concept you used for Platform Perils was good. And you missed an opportunity for some cool auto-barrel blasting in Snow Barrel Blast [you had a massive 40+ objects to work with!]. Yeah I should have edited that part a bit better maybe when I do a revision I could make the second half of Snow Ba...

Hey folks I'm back yet again this time with some a video and some screenshots of the new DK in mugen. This is something I should have done a while ago but didn't find the time before.

Thanks Cosmicman I'll try to release the ips patch for this soon.

Thanks Scraps69 for both your input and link to the new DK edit I've tried it yesterday and I love the new interface it's so much easier to click and drag stuff then to type in coordinates all the time. I think I might do revision of this hack soon to fix bugs and make the tiles look better, but for...

In perperation for thinking of ideas to help Scraps69 out with his DKC reloaded hack I made my own little hack as practice it's kind of a parody of all those challenge hacks I found all over youtube and of course here at DKC Atlas. Instead of making the levels harder it makes them so easy a four yea...

I was bored one day so I hacked Diddy Kong into Sonic 1. Yes this hack is real I am not pulling your chains. I did not know if this hack was DKC relevant enough so I posted it here. Here's some screens and a video (sorry no patch made as of yet.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWBAIKGkio4 http://img...

Hello everyone I am back with great news the new DK I made has just been released here's a link to him and please give some feedback if you can.
http://www.mediafire.com/?njwmdmzzwmknh3c
DK is still a little buggy but I hope to fix any issues he has in a future release.

Hmm, funny I can load up the demo just fine maybe it's because I loaded it on the Internet a long time ago. I hope you do not mind A7penn but could you please post more screens of the game preferably some world 4 and 6 pictures thanks.

I am pretty sure you cannot use version 1.1 for this hack. I am not sure if you read the hack description on page one, but I am sure that it states you need version U 1.0 (North American version 1.0 ROM) to use this hack I am pretty sure this applies to other DKC hacks made as well.

I knew you would like the tag animation I thought it would help the game add a bit more polish. Anyway I just finished editing the Army and Porcupine sprites I hope they are to you're liking if not I will just keep working on them. http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/6317/kosarmyandspiny.th.png I als...

I'm glad you like them I think you will also like these as well it's the tag animation and crouch for both DK and Diddy enjoy.

I am glad you liked the sprites no further work on them needed I guess. I played the demo again and I am getting excited to play the final release I hope you do not mind but I made some extra Diddy sprites of him dashing I noticed that while DK's running and walking look fine on the same animation D...

@ A7penn - Yeah I forgot about the death animations sorry I'll fix that as well as I can in the meantime enjoy these Pufferfish sprites I made. http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/4831/kospufferfish.png @ NecroToad - Wow great job it looks wonderful I don't think the title screen you made would need ...

Hey A7penn sorry I that have been inactive on this topic for a bit. Anyway I made some Krumple sprites I hope you will like them it's not Krusha but I hope his DKC3 counterpart will do I will make more sprites for him if you wish. http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/2331/koskrumple25.png EDIT: I made...

Wow Mattrizzle who would have guessed rare made DK's leaping kick way back in DKC I think that it may have been used as a special attack another use could have been that DK leapfrogged off Diddy to attack enemies.

Hehe I knew it Rare did not make a new sprite for Cranky they just grabbed an unused sprite and used it in the port. I wonder what that unused animation could have been used for maybe Cranky came out and had a little talk with you after you beat a boss just like in the GBA port. Hmm methinks that Di...

@Mattrizzle- Wow that's pretty neat maybe now Trick Track Trek can be hacked to its fullest potential.

@ Scraps69- Thanks for the patch Scraps this will help me quite a bit once I get my bearings at hacking I'm going to try my luck at Trick Track Trek.

Do not worry Scraps69 everybody likes to take a break from projects now and then. Anyway I did some light hacking on Trick Track Trek a few days ago and was shocked to find out that ordinary Baddies cannot walk on the track but rather special ones that have predetermined behavior, for example an ord...

Well I did some work on his head this time. Do you think it looks any better now A7penn?

@A7penn I think I realize why the Klaptrap sprites did not look so good it's because his eyes were off and his walk was poorly animated my bad. Not to fear though I fixed all that now Klaptrap should walk better now. http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/3719/kosklaptrap2.png I also made two different ...

Glad to hear that Vulture Culture came along well Scraps69 cannot wait for a release of it by the way have you already made plans for Trick Track Trek because I had a great idea for that level what if Roccroc was on both of the tracks the entire level not only would you have to dodge things coming a...

I am glad you like it guess what I got a Klaptrap sheet made here it is.

@ Scraps69 Gee that stinks that the Kongs turn invisible like that is there anyway to correct that with a patch code? Oh and I took some sprites from DKC 2 and gave them DKC 1 palettes whether or not these could actually be used in DKC 1 is a whole different story I bet. http://img143.imageshack.us/...

Hello again I made some Mankey Kong sprites this time it's not perfect but I hope they will help you a ton.

Good to hear the good news Scraps69 it sounds like the project is going to be a great success.

I have a question though will the hack incorporate enemies from later installments of DKC Like Neek or Klampon? I am guessing no but it never hurts to ask.
