Chrono Trigger Modification / Re: How many active hackers do we have here?
« on: February 08, 2020, 08:08:00 pm »I doubt
That's step 1 in the "How to not release anything good and original" guidebook!I want to experiment
That's all you need!
Thanks for the confidence boost, Trig! (Or at least, I'm guessing that was what it was.)

I guess I could consider myself an active hacker, but I've currently only done one piece of work, the upcoming Master Quest hack. I want to experiment a little more after that, but I doubt I'll release anything good that's original.

Oh, okay!

Chrono Trigger Modification / Re: Remade the soundtrack, looking for someone to patch a ROM with my music

That's exactly what I thought! His CT remixes are genuinely amazing, and I've asked to use the remix of the main theme in my trailer for the Master Quest hack.

I haven't had the time to properly introduce myself, so hi everyone! I'm MS04, some of you may know me as the person behind the upcoming CT - Master Quest hack, coming March 7th of this year! I plan to become a game developer someday, and want to use ROM hacks as some kind of "practice", so expect some more in the future! (And yes, before you ask, I do love Chrono Trigger, like you all!)

Yeah, I decided to copy over an unedited version of the 1000 AD map from a fresh CT ROM, and was able to fix it that way.

I was able to fix the error. The problem was that I wanted include a little bit of a reference to Chrono Cross with some rocks in the sea, a reference to El Nido back when it wasn't an island, but it turns out that some of the rocks covered up parts of the Fiona's Forest part of the map hidden away. After removing a few of the rocks, I think I've fixed it!

Hey, all! I'm here with some bonus news about CT - Master Quest! Shall we get started?
Well, to start it off, development of the extra content included in this hack is basically 100% complete! The only things that need to be added are the enemy stat changes in the regular version of the hack and also to properly link up the Erpon Village exits with their places on the world map. I won't be doing Compendium-wide beta-testing, as I don't want the hack leaking out too early! (By the way, expect the March 7th release date, everyone. Who knows? It might come out earlier than expected!)

Kajar Laboratories / Chrono Trigger - Master Quest: Update #2

Hey, all! I just wanted to drop a quick update about this hack before the new year. Let's begin, shall we?
I've already made a post about it over on r/chronotrigger on Reddit, just so I can get the word out. The hack is almost complete, I just need to finish the Erpon Village maps and harder stat changes for the hack. I haven't had the chance to develop recently, as I've been playing a lot of Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled on my Switch recently. (I promise I'll get to work soon!
)
I expect a trailer to release around a few weeks before release. And speaking of release...
Expect a March 7th 2020 release, everyone! I should finish it around the middle on January, and then I'll start beta-testing. However, I won't do beta-testing with multiple people, as I don't want anything to leak out.

Oh my, this looks AMAZING! I'd love to recreate this map in a RD remake using the CT engine someday, but I don't how to make maps.

This looks amazing! I'd really like to make a remake of RD in the CT style someday as a hack, but I've already got my hands full with the Master Quest hack.

Alright, I understand you. The latest I want to release the hack is around March 2020 and I want beta-testing to start in late December/early 2020.
P.S. What version of the hack do you want to play when the time comes? The regular version has all the changes, new content and increased difficulty, while the Jr. version keeps all the changes and new content but keeps the enemy stats the same as in regular CT.

Erpon Village won't have combat/exploration like in CT DS, unfortunately. It's mainly just the 3 huts I've already shown.
I'll be sure to give you a heads-up about the release as well!
(I don't know if you can help with this, but I want to do beta testing for this hack as well.)

Kajar Laboratories / Chrono Trigger - Master Quest: Update #1
« on: November 30, 2019, 03:48:19 pm »
Hey all, I'm back with a little more info on CT - Master Quest! I'll be able to actually show some stuff this time around, so let's begin!
I mentioned that "Battle 2" and "Singing Mountain" are now used in-game. Well, where are they played? Battle 2 is used in the Zenan Bridge encounter with Ozzie, as a battle theme for the Mystical Knights (Ozzie, Slash and Flea), the Lavos Spawns and the bosses on the Black Omen with the exception of Queen Zeal and the Mammon Machine. Singing Mountain is used on the Denadoro Mountains, Mt. Woe and Death Peak.
The Ocean Palace escape scene is extended, and it shows Schala interact with the Frozen Flame, as well as Sealed Door playing instead of Manoria Cathedral. The main ending has a few more friends from around time to interact with, like Gaspar and Spekkio. Magus also says a few things in the main ending, as well as Glenn being human even if the former is alive. A few others are slightly changed, but those are surprises!
The Lost Village that was seen in the CT prerelease is included, and is now known as the Erpon Village, a village of friendly Reptites. There's even a shop that has some unused items such as the SeraphSong!
I mentioned palette changes in the announcement post, remember? Well, here's a full list of what's changed:
Magus (Has red cape instead of blue, like he does in promotional artwork, an unintended side-effect is that the Prophet's cloak is also red, as it shares the same palette as Magus)
Heckran (Has black skin and white nails, like he does on the boxart)
Dalton (Has blue uniform, like he does in artwork)
Ozzie (His chest place things are altered)
Flea (His skin color is the same as in artwork and the rest of the cast)
A few inconsistencies and censored text is fixed, like a character in Zeal saying Janus was Schala's step-brother. This is still the Woolsey translation mostly, so no major changes in text.
So, that's wraps it up for now. Without further ado, here's a few screenshots of some changes:
