Hi all! I have been lurking here for a little bit and the stuff you guys do around here seems interesting so I decided to join. I've been a long time fan of the Golden Sun series (I have not played Dark Dawn, but from what I hear, I'm not missing too much). I used to be apart of Golden Sun Realm's Forumplanet forums a very long time ago (over 10 years) and I recently joined back up with them at Golden Sunrise last month, but I'm also quite interested in the technical side of things here. ^^

I haven't done much with the editor, however I am attempting to make a Golden Sun fan-game and the editor is quite useful for giving me the statistics of enemies and so on. ^^

Anyways, even though things appear pretty quiet around here I hope to meet some new people and be apart of the community! :)

Hi! Welcome to our to our community! :happy:
It has been a bit quite indeed lately, but we've had some activity a month or two ago.

Always nice to someone making a hack. Could you give us some details?

Howdy, and welcome! Also all of what Teawater said.

We hope you'll be very happy here, dear!
Oh yeah baby, £ me harder.

Fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak Adepts stronger.

Yoshi's Lighthouse is a hacking website in progress. Why not check it out if you like Yoshi or the Mario & Luigi games?

Thank you for the warm welcome! :happy:

I'm not really making a hack for the game, but more of a re-creation of the original games. I eventually want it to be online multiplayer, so you can team up with other Adepts to solve puzzles, explore the world, and also battle each other. I'm trying to make it feel like the original games by using the same sprites, sounds and effects. ^^

And.. no, I don't think so. xD Salanewt is confuzzled, maybe?

Okay, sounds good. Also reminds me a bit of this:

Ooo, I remember reading through that topic! Did it ever go anywhere? It seems like it kind of died off. o.o

I realize the project sounds kind of ambitious. XD Currently, i'm just aiming for a working battle system (against AI), then against other people, and then see where it goes from there.

All of what Teawater said. And I said nothing... So maybe it's all of nothing? :)

Anyway, hello there. Welcome to Golden Sun Hacking Community, and all of what Salanewt said.

Ah, that's cool! I remember Atrius and Kioll each trying to make something like that a while ago, and they looked like pretty cool concepts.

Oh, oops. I mistook Luna for Teawater. Carry on! :D

Nice to meat someone new around.
There are one big project so you are welcome to join us.
Here you can find many interesting places so have fun!

Formina

Thanks everyone! And I will make sure to read the rules! I'm not sure if I can post a link to my project (It's a flash thingy, so you can play in browser), but if I can I'll gladly post so you guys can check it out. ^^

I took a look at what Atrius (I found some flash demo thingies of the overworld and stuff) and Kioll had done, but it looks like those projects never took off / finished. So hopefully I can fill in the gap there. XD

Daddy Poi's Oily Gorillas

I think the way it works here is that you can't post commercial/copyrighted ROMs...

Even if you couldn't post links, I think you can still tell us what you named it so we can search for it.)

A Google search of "formina golden sun fan-game", didn't get me anywhere.

It's not a ROM - its a flash game that I made, but it does contain sprites and sounds from Golden Sun. So i'm not sure if its legal or not. Atrius posted some flash demos before, so I assume I should be okay to do it? o.o

Daddy Poi's Oily Gorillas

Yeah, I know you said it was Flash... I was just saying what I know...

Also, Atrius has a whole set of Golden Sun Sprites on his server that you can access via a certain BBCode... that along with his Flash demo(s)/etc... makes me think you are okay to post a link..

There might be some posts on this forum containing conversation between me and Atrius on the sprites, but I forget where it was... the gist was that it was a touchy subject/gray area or something...? My memory is probably foggy, but I take it that it was okay.

Oops, sorry! Read your post wrongly. ^^;  :Sweat:

Okay, here it is! https://db.tt/R4Jfs9wQ. I've been working on it for a couple of weeks now so it's nowhere near complete. The controls are the same as the default for VBA.. so your A button is "Z", B button is "X". Arrow keys to move around and navigate menus.

Currently the only thing you can do is open up the menu and battle against another party (By selecting the Battle option from the menu). Currently, you can attack and there is (very limited) Psynergy available. It's still kinda buggy and there's lots of things to fix up, so go easy on me! :happy:

Daddy Poi's Oily Gorillas

Seems alright for a start. Keep up the good work.

The first thing I noticed was Isaac moves slow. (Or is that just me?)
I also noticed some layer-problems.. Isaac standing on a tree? Hmm... and the menu icon to the right of the active icon seem to be on top....

I see you have it so that you can rotate the camera with L and R. (A and S on the keyboard.) I wonder if you read a post I made once about me finding an unused/hidden  feature inside GS's code that does the same thing...
