Sad news, affiliates

Some sad news in the community. The Sinister Six was hacked yesterday. Ice lost many files and alotta work. Fortunately, I had a plan and was able to save all the HTML including his famous epilogues! Zero X Phoenix also offered him hosting (like my site) and so he may return greater than before! The “hackers” who claim responsibility are none other than the Xtreme Team. Their leader XT Gemini has had it in for me for years and now he’s taking it out on my friends! Why not e-mail him or go to the XT forum and tell these guys exactly what you think of them. Meanwhile, I’ll be helping Ice rebuild.

Also, I’ve added some affiliates.

Epilogue, Music, tidying up

A new epilogue has been posted. “Mystery of the Cossack bots” by Geminiman.

I’ve added one new file to the music section, but it’s a doozy! The Megaman 3 NSF file. You’ll need Winamp and a plugin to play it. It has the complete Megaman 3 soundtrack including sound effects.

Speaking of the Music section, it has been moved to the Misc. section under downloads. Game Graphics and Mangas have been moved to the image gallery. And the Gallery itself has been organized further, separating ripped sprites from custom works.

The affiliates have been moved to the right frame using some fancy HTML script. So now they appear on just about every single part of this site.

*Update a few hours later* Was board and decided to take out background MIDIs in the bios (finally) and replaced them with Play/Stop MIDI controls. Killed a few minutes….

Epilogue

It’s a new month and a new epilogue. This one was made by Geminiman. Good readin’!

Meanwhile …. UMMF is still down. But that’s okay since I have bigger things to worry about. Go to the “temp.” forum for chatting and general question-asking.

Also, we have one spot left for affiliation. So either I gotta find a new one myself, or someone has to send me a request.

Also, I’ve been receiving complaints about the full-screen ads …… well, I can’t do anything about that. Hell, I get unlimited space and it’s free and all I gotta do is write about Megaman. So, if the cost is a full screen ad (which is easily gone if you refresh, by the way) then boo-friggin-hoo, I don’t care.

UMMF Down …. again

Damn, our forum luck is bad.

Seems the recyled hosting people discovered Ed was hosting other people and revoked his membership. Without notice. So this time posts and accounts made directly after the reopening were lost.

I do NOT have the luck when it comes to forums, do I? Well, it should be back in a few weeks. Again. For now, the old Proboards have been enabled to give us a place to talk while we wait for things to get sorted out.

Walkthrough, Animations, Epilogues

The Walkthrough has been updated. I was never happy with how the last few “hints” turned out, so I’ve made them better. Changed are the hints for Needleman, The Doc Robot stages, and the Wily stages.

Geminiman has given me more of his sprite animation for people to view. You can find them in the Image Gallery.

And the epilogues have finally resumed. Series 4 has begun with a brand new epilogue by myself.

Affiliation has been going well. There’s one spot left now.

Guides, links, pirate games

Smaller sized update this time. I’ve changed the team links section a bit. Some teams haven’t updated in too long so I have removed them.

Next up is a revised guide on Megaman X. It was in the planning stages for quite a while, but it’s been updated. It mostly centers around why MM is X now. It’s completely rewritten, so it’s worth a look or two.

The pirate games has one new game added to it. The most pathetic attempt at a pirate I’ve seen. So see it in the NES section.

Image Gallery, Pirate Sprites, New Quiz, forums

Yet another update. This one has a nice bit o content.

First up is new unused sprites. From Megaman 4. Ever wonder why they never made more sprites for the Wily talking bit? Wonder no more.

Also, there is more added to the Rocman X sheet in the pirate sprites section (in the image gallery). Remember how, in the pirate games section, I said it was based off a gameboy game called “ThunderClashman”? Well, I ripped those sprites too. And they’re even more like Rockman than in the “Rocman X” game! Go look.

New Quiz made by me. “Which Megaman are you??” Are you Megaman X, Megaman EXE, or possibly ….. the MM1 box art Megaman!? You know the drill, go to the quiz and fill it out!

Also, I’d like to announce that the forums are NOT DEAD! Sigmah moved them to the bluebomber server to avoid the glitches that were plaguing his server. The move is “temporary”. In fact it moved a month ago, but people for some reason didn’t bother checking the announcement that the forum moved. Must be blind. At any rate, there’s no need to re-regester, all your accounts and posts have been preserved. The link to the forums on this page is correct.

A-H section returns, Chinese Game mystery solved, Pirate game page split up! Oh, and more images have been added to the bios..

Back in the day, this page achieved high recognition because I relied to the many flames that were thrown at us in a section called the “Ass holes speak”. When I moved to the new server, Classic Gaming had a bit of a problem with profanity used there and also the flames had cooled allot, so I ditched the section. Well, lost content always bothered me, so I waited until a time when I could return the section. Now, armed with a powerful disclaimer placed prominately on the page, the section returns! And I’ve added a new entry to it as well (which will mark the final update for that section). View the old section in the miscellaneous page.

A few days ago I was contacted by a dude who actually own one of the pirate games listed on my page – Rockman the Power Battle PC! Go to the Chinese games page to see startling discoveries and information that will intrigue you for an entire minute! Also, I added more to the “Rockboard” game.

Finally, I split up the pirate games page. There’s just too many images! Y’know, I once told Auto that Rock wasn’t too popular among pirates, and he told me I was dead wrong ……. and it looks like I was.

Oh, yeah, almost forgot. TV images of Needle and Hard have been added to the bios. Courtesy of Wolf Eclispe.

Sprite Tutorial

Not a huge update this week. Just Kim’s old tutorial is off the net and so I asked her if it’d be all right to host it (since I thought her coverage on shading was pretty good). She was bewildered at why I’d want to keep her “silly tutorial”, but agreed to let me host it. So, if you didn’t know how to shade sprites well, and wanted to learn in a humorous way, read her part of the tutorial. I’ve added a link at the end of my own spriting tutorial.

Image Gallery, New Petition, Links

This update’s actually pretty big. I’ve added images of the Megaman 3 team in their Transmetal Armor drawn by Geminiman. All in the Image Gallery (what’d you expect?).

Now lately I have noticed a new trend in the MM community. Online Petitions. And, far be it for me to ignore a new trend. So, I have created my OWN petition! The Megaman is God petition! That’s right, you no longer have to just play Megaman, you can worship him as your god! Sign today! It is easily located in the left frame.

Oh, yeah. I also added a new link to the links section.
