DKC Atlas Forum

Hrm... I'm not exactly sure on this matter. I'm used to avatars being on the left side of the forums, but having them on the right side isn't terribly bad. :/

If I had to pick one... maybe on the left, but I dunno. I'm not too picky about it to be honest.

Nick - my honest opinion is that every DKC game (on SNES) is worth completing in its entirety. Besides, the average gamer ought to be able to complete the trilogy over a lazy weekend. Well, maybe a few of the more well-hidden bonus rooms could make that tricky for anyone new to the games. Egh... es...

Qyz sums up most of what I'd like to say, really. I agree; much larger focus on natural gameplay and normal glitches rather than PAR code weirdness. No offense, but some of the glitchy stuff where the screen scrolled a few times was enough to make a man sick... I'm able to record anything if you nee...

Squitter.

PS: The game engine is named DELTA. That should be easier than saying 'DKCLB's game engine' every time I refer to it. I'll edit this into the DKCLB topic. Feel free to ask if you're wondering where I came up with the name DELTA Just guessing, but DKC4? Since Delta means 4? Edit: Yeah, that's what I...

Megaman sounds a lot better than Pacman in my opinion... mainly because the series started out as an all out clash between Nintendo's main characters; but slowly over time second party characters were added, finally resulting in the inclusion of third party characters Sonic and Snake; which really d...

Hmmm... in my opinion I think it might look a little better if the "Level Builder" text was created to look more like the wooden country logo. Perhaps also put DKC and level builder closer together so you can put the text logo on any sort of background if need be.

If you're not going to go for all banana birds, at least try collecting all of the bonus coins and DK coins...

Just finished downloading.... and although I'm not into rap or hip hop too much... Wild Wild Jungle is really funky. :P And yeah, I agree, some vocals from the Gorillaz wouldn't hurt. :) EDIT: The only other tracks I really liked were The way blast barrels are, Runaway Dixie... and perhaps I wish I ...

Mm... I'm waiting on the Wii version; I've heard nothing but good things about this game.

I've been kicked off the television for tonight. :cry: Qyzbud, is it okay if I put that Donkey Kong is not the original DK in his article? I think it's something that the public should know by now. But, there's also the debate as to whether Cranky is Donkey Kong's dad or grandpa. Personally, I thin...

Couldn't get the Clapper's Cavern one to work just yet... probably doing it completely wrong. I did do the Rattly one, but it isn't where the treasure chest is, but a bit further up when you get onto the mainbrace. Anyway, although it isn't a No animal sign you can get Squitter to go through Squawks...

Use E-snips or another site to upload mp3s, then link to them in your post. I don't think phpBB boards support music upload, and neither do most other boards.

They aren't really the only type of nut necky around, though... I think it might cause a bit of confusion for some people.

Mmm... it's wonderful that Rare is nice enough to actually get off their arses and reply to their fans. I bet the only thing you'd get back from Nintendo would be a automatic message saying something along the lines of "Thank-you for your interest in Super Smash Brothers Brawl. Below is a list ...

I really need to buy the original DK Land someday. I own the second and third games... but only ever played a bit of the first. Might be fair to say I've been missing out. As for the other two, they may not have been as original as the concepts within Donkey Kong Land, but the gameplay was still ver...

Mm... we had a top 5 posters/topic creators at another forum I go to a while back, but it only caused trouble with certain members. I think it would be best to leave as less of the site as possible revolving around post counts or awarding people for higher amounts of posts. Ranks are enough.

If somebody needs a patch, you should probably PM it instead of posting it on the forums.

Ah, yes. It's all part of our plan to take over the (DKC) world!!

Ahem. Yeah, cheers guys.

I noticed this back when I got the game - it's especially noticeable in Riverside Race, as I can only get 1:02. Swimming is much slower than on the SNES, so the route of the level involves keeping out of the water whenever you can. Rolling through enemies also does not give your character a speed bo...

Ah... I know you... :P Hrm... I'm not sure as to the cause. The DKC trilogy for the Game Boy advance had completely different physics involved though, and a lot of levels were remodelled so that they weren't quite the same as their SNES counterparts, so obviously it's resulted in a few new and diffe...

Discussion of forum (and/or real names) can go here.

Thanks!

Ah...

Testing is in progress. Watch this space...

Edit: Yeck... an error... something about not being able to get the IP address. Perhaps it'll work if somebody else tries it out.

I don't think so; the FAQ included with the emulator says that all you have to do is connect to my server when I have it up and running.

Try getting the (U) V: 1.2 version of DKC, then try to connect to the server I posted above if possible.

If you're up for it. Just to see how the whole thing works I guess.

Just downloaded - I'll be happy to try out DKC2 with anybody now. Shame my mic doesn't work, else I'd use skype at the same time. I'm acting as a host on DKC2 (the version that has the purple screen at the start with "enable infinite lives cheat"... it's a dud version in terms of life coun...

Yes, yes, I'll make sure to incorporate some more of that... left hand in my next drawing.

Looking at it again... I think Joanna Dark may have influenced the drawing a bit... perhaps the features and the pose - reminds me a lot of her instead of ZSS.

A pipe level with Enguarde... Has to be Poisonous Pipeline, doesn't it? Naw, there's actually a new level within the game's new stage, Pacifica, called Dingy Drain Pipe (this is the one I was talking about which suits the new drainpipe music more); the trademark gimmick of the level is that some pa...

Hmm... definitely similar. I'm not sure though, I'll have to listen to it a couple more times. Guess I don't have DKC-sensitive hearing like Qyz...

Mm... definitely a jumble of sorts. I don't see why there's a few of the animal buddies, a couple of bosses and two kremlings... just doesn't make sense for a poll, really. What you should be doing, is categorising properly (favourite kong, boss, baddie, animal friend) then instead of using a poll, ...

Hey, Banjoster... didya click the link on SM's homepage?

(for all those out of the know... I moderate on a BK board... decided to give this place a bit of advertising....

)

Oh, a metaphor, eh? So that would imply that DK Atlas isn't actually art?

Jomingo wrote:Art? Anybody?

*pokes above sketch*

Eh, I know it doesn't look as womenly as it should be... but I tried. :/

In terms of the amount of ranks and when they are obtained... 0-29 30-99 100-249 250-499 500+ ... and perhaps some more for 1000, 2000, 5000 and whatever. At the rate people are posting right now, I don't think it'll take too long before we have members with 10000+ posts. As for the ranks themselves...

Yah, but it's only those 5 notes...

Ugh... I seriously don't know how long the GBA team spent on this boss, but it was obviously even less than Kerozene from DKC2. This... thing doesn't even fit in the DKC series at all. It isn't even an octopus! Or a crocodile variant! It doesn't look anything like the original Croctopus from DKC, ei...

Yah, Rare calls the move DK's signature hand slap... but it depends on what you want to call it I guess.

Also, would you want to add a Jump statistic for the Kongs' jump height and distance? :/

TP was WAY TOO EASY. And I really disliked that there were no heart pieces in PH... They dropped the heart piece system? That's crazytalk! Did max-health stay the same all through TP? TP still has heart pieces (although 5 make a full heart container instead of 4); Phantom Hourglass doesn't, but you...

No, but I could try doing it on hard mode. Yes all GBA ports suck. ;) I don't plan on downloading an emulator just to do a speedrun on a crappy port, either. The DKC3 port is actually pretty good. Some would go as far to say that it's better than the original, but I don't think so. It's still good....

Thar. Updated with a few more.

I don't have the GBC DKC manual with me, but I do remember it had nothing in it on the mini drums...

Aquatic Attackers and Terrafirma Tough Guys...

Yey Zero Suit Samus. ^_^

I'm pretty certain I could beat Marsh's time for DKC3... I just haven't been using the level warps within the first two stages.
I do know a few ways to pick up some extra speed that he's overlooked, but I'm not sure whether my PAL version would be able to keep up... :/

Gallionsplanken sounds awesome...

Hehe... just beat the game again. 2:28 sounds pretty good to me. DKC2 - PAL Percentage: 102% Old Best: 3:38 (218 minutes) New Best: 2:28 (148 minutes) Percentage Improvement: 32% I'm happy. :) I think I'll aim for 2:15 next time and see how I go. Dunno when that'll be, though. Also: Funky and Wrinkl...

You lucky, lucky NTSC region gamers. :roll: You can actually import the game and buy a special device to let your PAL system play the game - all for under $100 AUS since the US Dollar is in such a slump at the moment... I don't really know why I haven't gone out and bought it myself yet, though... ...

I beat both DKC and DKC3 a while before I beat DKC2 (let alone got 102% in it). But I really think it's a much more satisfying feeling after completing DKC2 in full. I loved DKC3 the most out of the three for a while - mostly out of nostalgia and beating it more times, but after I finally took the t...

Just means I have a better chance of being able to attend one of their concerts again, that's all.
