Title: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: N-Mario on November 09, 2008, 08:02:17 PM
Just posting this topic back up.
http://www.geocities.jp/rock5easily/

Looks like they update quite frequently. And looking at the new screens looks like there's 3 new levels..... I think.

Alright, it reformatted itself; I meant the first picture. .. Surely one wouldn't play for that many screens, right? Like I said before, it looks more like a timer, which is also in the third.

Is this the Rockman 5 Endless Mode hack? If so, maybe the title should be changed to prevent confusion.

It's Hard Mode.

It ticks down from 1m30sec and you need to beat each screen in that time.
When you beat a screen, it goes back to 1m30sec again. ^^

If you win against a boss, it will cut the timer by 2 seconds.
1m28sec, and so on. Now that's very evil. >BD

I doubt I'd get anywhere in this latest version of the hack.
But I'll have to try it out soon.

I want to try this, I have Rockman 5, I just need an IPS patcher.
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: Rad Lionheart on November 10, 2008, 02:37:22 AM
There are tons of IPS patchers available.
So go get one and try it out.

Okay, I got 6 Screens, but it threw me out at Crystal Man's Stage. X(


2nd Try: 27 Screens, I failed at a place with a ton of conveyor belts, and I went to the Wily Smasher Twice in a row.

Really? I did not know that. o_O

Wait.... If that was the case, wouldn't the timer eventually hit 0'00'00 after so many boss fights, where it's virtualy impossible to complete? Or does the timer actually stop going down?
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: Rad Lionheart on November 10, 2008, 05:25:34 AM
Eventually you wouldn't have enough time to complete a a screen and thus, game over.

I also tried this hack just a while back.
Those lazer pussles are a [sonic slicer]! (lol, I made a funny.)

Post by: Rad Lionheart on November 11, 2008, 12:36:56 AM
Out of the few lazer screens, I haven't passed a single one.
Probably cause most of them require sliding to be used, and I just fail at sliding at the right time.

Latest version only has a new one area, and it is really rare to see in rockman games, it is wily 3 area 4, scrolling stage you should check it.
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: N-Mario on November 17, 2008, 06:01:03 AM
IMHO, They should focus on making an endless mode for games 4 & 6. Or at least for MM 1, 2, or 3, or something. Because fighting the MM5 bosses gets very tiresome after a while.
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: Rad Lionheart on November 17, 2008, 06:04:31 AM
Fighting the bosses from Rockman 6 is even more tiresome in my opinion.
But I wouldn't mind each of them getting an endless hack, t'would be quite fun.

Post by: kuja killer on November 24, 2008, 02:15:03 AM
It's nothing special really. The planet graphic was there originally in the rom. It was placed on the 2nd screen if you look in a level editor.

The reason it never showed up though originally is because the stage uses a special parallax scrolling effect right??

Well the NES can only scroll the current screen as it is. And it will be repeated infintely, in other words it will never draw anything to the screen above the division line between the parallax scroll, and the normal playfield. If the planet graphic was placed on the very first beginning screen, then it will appear, and stay there being scrolled very slowly, but infintely wrap from the left/right side of the screen to the opposite side.

The original game designers probably did not have it there for the final version of the game because since it's a giant graphic, it would feel really weird to keep seeing it appear on the oppositie side of the screen repeatedly as if world rotated fully every minute.

It's very close to being like parallax BG's on the SNES...except the major downside is ...because of NES limitations, you can virtually never have any level design in the "affected" area of the screen that's doing the parallax. It has to be a completely black screen, or a repeated pattern. That is why many of the NES megaman's fortress bosses like wily, use those scrolling techniques, however it can only be on pure solid black with no BG design whatsoever.

Wether some people already know this or not, i just felt like explaining for anyone that may have not actually understood or knew how it worked.

Even though I knew the planet was there before, I never got to see it in use.  It's a nice effect.

Last I checked, there was only a few endless stages for RM3 around. I could only play through some of hard man stages and needle mans stages. Maybe I should wait until it's more complete, where all bosses are fightable, & stages are playable?

Sorry :( I'll try to make it short then.
Just was saying that how the reason the game designers prob never used it in the end because it was such a big graphic, it will wrap around from one side of the screen to the other in a very short amount of time of walking in a direction, and it prob would of seemed too weird for people to imagine that the earth rotated in only a minute or whatever.  ???

Well. Not animation wise, but position offset wise. Mainly due to the fact that I believe the creator moved his ground off to one side to make room for that door, I guess. I'll post a pic if I get to him again. X_X

My worst night mare so far is fighting Shadow Man. I have to have full Top Spin and reasonable life energy or I'm screwed. Now if the Doc Robots show up, I'll have to worry about Shadow Man AND Quick Man. Most of the time I need at least one E-Tank for Quick man and since this hack has none, I'll have to step up my game.

Rock5 actually discussed concerning having the doc robots fightable or not this morning in reply to someone that asked about it on 2ch.

But it does not seem like he will be able to based on what he said, but the stages probably will be used.

I can confirm firsthand that the Air Man Doc Robot is already in RM3 Endless.  Although I had to clear over NINE THOUSAAAND 300 screens before I fought him.

All that time and only one Wily stage segment....

Anyway, Rock5 may be referring to the 4 "final" Doc Robots (Crash Man, Bubble Man, Quick Man, and Heat Man) due to there being no instance in the game where you defeat them without the stage ending.  Depends on how far his hacking skills go, I suppose, but if that is causing issues then it would sadly mean no hope for fortress bosses as well.

And on that note, where the hell is Proto Man?

Oh that's cool. :) Well alright then. I personally haven't even bothered to play it at all yet (only just like when the very first or 2nd release was on the site) because i wanna wait until there's much more playablility to it. 20 areas is a fairly decent amount but im certain there will be alot more than that over the next few weeks. So im waiting until then. :)

[spoiler]Apparently, this level with DANGER on it is actually none other than.

THE YELLOW DEVIL!

Although I'm unsure if this is actually an endless fight (where he actually can die in a certain # of times killed), or if its actually an endless battle until you die.

CONFIRMED: He does have multiple phases like those Final Dr. Wily fights. His final phase was the toughest phase I've fought. I did not really count when I was fighting it, but it seemed like there were at least 5 phases.

1 - Normal Path Phase.
2 - Faster Path Phase.
3 - Sometimes throws 3 blocks at once at you.
4 - Uses an X like path movement.
5 - The final phase. The blocks stop in the middle of the path for a second. Then suddenly start moving again.

Yea, that sounds about right. :)[/spoiler]

It's a good thing that DANGER part is actually optional. It was hard for me the first time I tried it. ;)

This actually may be a good challenge for Vixy to try. :)

[spoiler]Apparently, this level with DANGER on it is actually none other than.

THE YELLOW DEVIL!

Although I'm unsure if this is actually an endless fight (where he actually can die in a certain # of times killed), or if its actually an endless battle until you die.

CONFIRMED: He does have multiple phases like those Final Dr. Wily fights. His final phase was the toughest phase I've fought. I did not really count when I was fighting it, but it seemed like there were at least 5 phases.

1 - Normal Path Phase.
2 - Faster Path Phase.
3 - Sometimes throws 3 blocks at once at you.
4 - Uses an X like path movement.
5 - The final phase. The blocks stop in the middle of the path for a second. Then suddenly start moving again.

Yea, that sounds about right. :)[/spoiler]
That is complete insanity.

I must try it. 8)

Use the practice mode code to try and jump to the level (it was discovered on the previous pages of this topic). Easier and less pain-inducing method of getting there!  :)

I cleared 100+ screens in the 6th version of Rockman 3 Endless. Didn't even see the Yellow Devil.

Bring on Rockman 2 and 4 Endless. I'd love to see those. Rockman Endless, I wouldn't look forward to so much because that game is balls hard.

Well, finally took a shot at-  Whoops.

[spoiler]The Uber Yellow Devil.  Note there's a 3-block spike pit on either side.  1st round normal, 2nd reminds me of MM1 speed.  3rd's multi-blocks require insane precision and occasional sliding.  4th's X-pattern *SHOULD* be easy, there are always safe spots on the floor, but having to not jump when you see a glob at the bottom really farks with the veteran reflexes.  The 5th round's mid-path stops are pure insanity; lots of slides with only 2 or 3 blocks of room, often needing to follow a jump.  DO NOT pause mid-pass, because the hang time will get you hit.[/spoiler]

Wait, the creator of Rockman DEM, one of the sweetest Rockman 2 hacks made RM2 Endless? JAWESOME!!!  0v0 But I think I already hate the Quick Man areas in this hack even more after seeing some vids on YouTube.  :|
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: N-Mario on January 12, 2009, 07:52:13 PM
Well FINALLY, someone made a rockman 2 endless. ;D
Now I can add this to my rockman endless collection. :)

EDIT: Well I attempt it myself some areas were hard. So I just went to seeing them on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDLRg19qMko).
The first thing I noticed was the numbering of the areas. It's not as even as it supposed to be. For example, standard areas are supposed to have 5 screens each. Bosses are every 30 screens. One of the videos showing a guy getting to heat man at 36th screen.
Also, was it just me, or did some of the teleporter colors looked messed up in some areas? (examples being air man, and wood man areas.)

Though I suppose it's a good hack nonetheless.
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: kuja killer on January 12, 2009, 08:48:48 PM
Well it can go over just a little bit. It's probably like, when your able to start the next area after going in a teleport, the game's doing a check to see if it's 30 or more at that very momment, if it is, then only pick a boss room, otherwise continuing selecting random area's normally. So like say you got to a teleporter at screen #28 or 29, and it's not equal to 30 yet, and then you just happened to get a long place that was 5 or 6 screens long, then the next teleporter will defintely send ya to a boss since it was finally over 30.

That's just my guess anyway.
Title: Re: The "Rockman Endless" ROM Hack Thread
Post by: N-Mario on January 12, 2009, 09:48:29 PM
Okay. Apparently, this RockMan 2 endless hack DOES contain all the wily fortress bosses (most of them anyway). INCLUDING the Wily Alien final boss. I don't know why the creator made it that way, as none of the others do this. I'm on my 150th or something screen now, and already came acors Dr Wily Alien, and the Wily Machine.

RM2 Endless is definitely the hardest of the Endless hacks. My second try I only cleared 34 screens. First Wily boss I encountered was the purple blocks (don't know the bosses' official name) and I got soooooo lucky on that thing.

Rock2 endless kicks my ass, BADLY. I think my best TO DATE is ~42 screens. I've more than DOUBLED that in both Rock3 and Rock5's!

I'd have to say Rock3's is my favorite so far, but then, MM3 was the game I started my MM interest with. The Doc Robot stages really made that game something special; and having the fast pace with sliding, and NOT the waiting with the charge-buster really set a good pace, to me.

But Rock2? JUST. FREAKING. HARD. "!". ;O;

The problem is that the Buster colors are still Rock Blue. Time Stopper shows the right colors. >U<

I'll try that patch too. If it's a combo patch; you might apply the Endless patch first, and the graphical patch second, and see if it fixes that. ;)

OOoohhhhkkayy....... Apparently, Rock5Easily took down the Rock 5 Endless Hack from their MM hacks page. Seems like Rock 3 Endless is the only one available now...... Even though they were through with Rock 5 Endless, I still don't see why they had to take it down.  :|

Maybe they are going to try to make room on the site while focusing on other rockman games to make endless version? Or maybe they figured it was time for it to go. I don't know.  :\

Has anyone heard whether or not an endless version of MM, MM4, or MM6 is being worked on? Think those are the only ones left that can easily be hacked to.

Also, is RockMan 2 endless finished for good, or is the creator still working on more levels? It seemed to me last I checked, it was lacking a few Crash Man areas. Don't know about the other areas, though seemed like there was more of everything else there.

I'd imagine RM Endless hacks for the as of yet RM games are on the way. Only seems natural. As for RM2 Endless, the way it is, I wasn't sure if updates would be done. Seems like there's already a lot for it from the get go.

Some of the newer areas in the last version of RM3 Endless are BRUTAL. It took me a while to get past the moving spike sections in Dr. Wily Stage 3 areas. Going up, when I finally got past the upward area I was like "YES!" Even paused to get up, dance and celebrate. A few screens later, the same thing... only going down. "NOOOOOOOOES!!!"

Wait, it's been updated again? Sweet!
