Remix Watch: Week of October 3-10, 2004

===Project ZEAL Underway=== - --ZeaLitY 10:47, 6 Oct 2004 (CDT)

If you've visited the forums lately, you may have noticed the creation of a special forum for something called 'Project ZEAL.' Project ZEAL is a community-wide effort to produce rich fanfiction by representing a number of writing styles and outlooks on the Chrono series; several authors collaborate in writing scenes using a few Chrono series characters and several ones of their own creation. The plot is deeply interesting and its development has led to an excellent mythos in the series. If you'd like to check it out, private message me on the forums or post in the General Discussion Thread 'Anyone interested in a fanfiction project?".

===New ReMixes Released=== - --ZeaLitY 17:04, 27 Sep 2004 (CDT)

In the last week, five new remixes have been released at www.ocremix.org and www.vgmix.com. Check them out:

===Chrono Trigger Prerelease Completed=== - --ZeaLitY 18:13, 22 Sep 2004 (CDT)

The special section covering the Prerelease has been completed. It includes, with pictures for nearly every entry, information on possible characters, monsters, locations, and options (such as the Epoch's hovercraft mode) that were removed from or changed in the final version of Chrono Trigger. Check it out at Chrono Trigger Prerelease.

===Chrono Trigger Prerelease Soundtrack Released=== - --ZeaLitY 16:12, 19 Sep 2004 (CDT)

Though the Prerelese section isn't finished due to maps being needed for the era entries, the CTP soundtrack has been released notwithstanding. It features a few tracks different from the final version's music, and can be found at Music (CTP).

===CTR Developer Speaks=== - --ZeaLitY 08:19, 8 Sep 2004 (CDT)

On OvercockedRemix.org, the developer of Chrono Ressurrection has offered more insight into the project and its discontinuation.

The only reason we decided to show it prematurely was because everyone who saw the project was telling us that we should show it to the public. I didn't see any harm in doing that. And, yes, Square has every right to shut the project down. I respect Square and their work over the years and I had no problem stopping the project under their request. It *is* their IP and their legal right.

Keep in mind, though, that we honestly didn't expect the project to get so big -- I know I didn't even think about that kind of exposure. And we weren't trying to play mind games with people out there, like you've suggested in so many jaded posts. We thought it would be cool to show what we were working on, that's all. Now that the project is closed, we'll be moving on to other things... Square sure did download the trailer a lot in the past day and a half, though... 1.6 GB of bandwidth just from their IP. I literally lost count of the number of unique visits.

===Chrono Ressurrection Discontinued; CTCC Savestate Pack 1 Released=== - --ZeaLitY 17:25, 6 Sep 2004 (CDT)

Chrono Trigger Ressurrection, an effort by third-party game developers to recreate ten scenes of Chrono Trigger in 3D, has been discontinuted after receiving a cease and desist order from Squaresoft. Blame lies in e-mails sent to Square asking for them to support the development team, given even in the warning of the project members that this might occur. Several images and a trailer have been left at the site in memory; they can be found here.

Additionally, I have released the first piece of my Chrono Trigger Comprehensive Collection of savestates. These are intended to allow access to any segment of the game. It can be found here.
