Just when you thought it was safe in Monsteropolis...
BOOM.
While I'm only 1/16th done, I've decided to let anyone and everyone play around with the VERY MUCH W.I.P. profile and I'll leave you with this little gem. Enjoy!
* Profile maker's note: Sometimes loading custom profiles, specifically Mega Man 4 and Mega Man 5 results in a glitch in which 3DSen doesn't load all the textures and colors into the RAM fast enough and it can result in scrambled graphics. Most of the time this can be remedied by opening a pack-in profile ROM; CastleVania 1 usually works the best, then after it's loaded up, immediately re-load Mega Man 4 or Mega Man 5. It may also help to increase the priority to 3DSen in Task Manager or close other programs. Firefox and Chrome are especially resource-hungry.
Of the the three Mega Man titles I've worked on, this one is the MOST problematic.
Update 1: Project is now 1/8th done! 14 Stages remain.
Update 2: Project is now 3/16th done! 13 Stages remain
Update 2.5: A number of improvements made. Stage Selected splash screen deepened to fix text and background issues. Clouds now drift in Gyro Man's stage. Gaping holes in the background of Crystal Man's stage now fixed. Other minor tweaks and polishes.
Update 3: Project is now 1/4 (25%) done! 12 Stages remain.
Update 4: Project is now 5/16th (31.25%) done 11 Stages remain.
Update 5: Project is now 3/8 (37.5%) done! 10 Stages Remain.
Update 6: Project is now 7/16th (43.75%) done! 9 stages remain
Update 7: Project is now 8/16th (50%) done! 8 stages remain HALFWAY THERE!
Update 8: Project is now 9/16th (56.25%) done! 7 stages remain
Update 9: Project is now 5/8th (62.5%) done! 6 stages remain
Update 10: Project is now 11/16th (68.75%) done! 5 stages remain
Update 11: Project is now 3/4 (75%) done! 4 Stages remain! HOME STRETCH!
Update 12: Project is now 13/16 (81.25%) done! 3 Stages remain!
Update 13: Project is now 7/8 (87.5%) done! 2 Stages remain!
Update 14: Project is now 15/16 (93.75%) done! 1 Stage remains!
Update 15: Project is now 16/16 (100%) done! Project is essentially finished*
* I was unable to fix the end credits after many attempts. They will have to remain a problem.
Well the message says it all. This project is finished. Or rather it's as finished as I can make it. Due to problems with the final staff roll credits, I had to leave off after the Robot Master Contest credits. Otherwise...there's nothing more I can do for this profile. It is essentially a finished project.
This coming March I hope to be able to start Mega Man 6 and I'm hoping I'll have fewer complications in the long-run.
Overall...this was still one of my favorites to work with despite the problems. It's very, very much playable, baring any unforeseen glitches, color problems, or emulator issues.
Thank you for sticking around to see it through.
