Topic: Mega Man X5 improved edition

[Flame]

I know we aren't supposed to talk about rom hacks, but site's dead enough and I figure this is noteworthy enough.

Apparently this is a thing. Not that old either. This magnificent bastard has gone through X5's code and basically, made an "improved" edition with a few changes, chief among them- GETTING RID OF ALIA

Aside from that, there's also stuff like sprite fixes to the "injured" X and Zero sprite,and other small quality of life changes, but man i figure this is noteworthy if nothing else because DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD X5's Alia interruptions are finally gone!

I don't....see any rules about not talking about ROM Hacks?  I mean the only rules we have about those is we can't link the actual ROMs.

[Flame]

Oh? Well nevermind about that then. I just remember that warning in the gaming section

[Sakura Leic]

Should probably also delete that extra topic you accidently made as well.

[Flame]

I already tried. Can't. I got some kind of 403 error when I tried to post the topic, so I hit backspace and tried again. I guess it had gone through despite that

[Sakura Leic]

Still technically there unfortunately, I'll see if I can get a mod on it since I have Phi, Wily, and Sato on Discord and all.

[Phi]

Where's the extra topic?

I'll see if it works for me

Edit: okay, it's done

[Hypershell]

Wow, cool to see someone tackling X5's myriad of nuisances.  I think they've pruned their member list since the last time I posted anything on their boards, maybe I should register and drop a few ideas...

[Flame]

Hell yeah.

It's really refreshing to play the game without Alia bugging you every second.

Honestly it's kind of unnerving, because you've come to expect it

[Police Girl]

What injured sprites are they talking about?

Also, last thing they should fix is swapping out the music in the Ocean level and the Dr. Light Capsules. That way they have new songs instead of the reprises from older games. Does this thing let you get all the option parts like Jumper and stuff?

[Flame]

the injured sprites from the intro stage boss fight, where the character you didnt use is hanging out in the back.

for instance this



to this

[N-Mario]

Who's actually going to notice those during just a regular/casual play through? It's nice that he fixed it, but it seems like a very small change.
