this small page will keep you informed about the current status of our project to enhance the original breath of fire 2 game for snes.

Tuesday, April 12, 2005

Finished debugging today.

Good news, i was able to fix all known bugs during the last week.
Just waiting for the scripts to arrive now.
Recent changes include:

-Primitive Bootmenu to verify the rom image and stuff like that to make sure no one is playing a bad copy of the game.
Only pops up the first time the rom is loaded to minimize user annoyance and never shows up again if the rom is good.

-Completely new font, now with a black outline to increase readability.

-Made the menu text opaque. again, to increase readability.

-Dozens of bugfixes.

Check these recent pictures out:

The Bootmenu:




Status menu:




Player-switching menu:




Shaman menu:

Doesn't look like those screens are linking properly. Is there anywhere else they're hosted? Cause I'd dearly love to see them :)

Keep it up! If/when this gets finished, I'm gonna be all over it. Best of luck on this project, and may the gaming gods smile upon you!

I mirrored your screenshots so everyone can take a look if the Geocities account goes over.

Your work is very impressive. Good look on the project, and I can't wait for a release!

Even the sloppy original release of Breath of Fire 2 is the awesome, but this... this looks like it is just going to blow the mind. Props to you, my man, props to you. It is appreciated.

Looks really nice. Can't wait to try it out when it's done. :D

Just wondering,

Hey _I_ happened to like the Bleu name. ;)
Sooo cool, I never finished this game, dunno if my copy was bugged or something, because I got to the last dungeon after _someone died_ and I couldn't do shit when I had enter I just saw some _monsters_ flying around in the dungeon and there was no platforms or anything to walk on.

Great work so far. The ilustrations with a new palette still look awesome.

Keep it up. I'll look forward to this release :D

Yeah, I forgot... does the enhancement include the characters names in the english version as well? I'm asking it because the original (and crappy) english translation had names changed or shortened, but I see you included the full shaman names in your german translation.

I shit myself on this...it looks amazing. I could not believe the difference you made only so far...wow. Just wow. Those text boxes...are they adjustable, or a set gradient and non customizable? I dig the Menu work too. That background you put in made me go bat shit crazy...keep up the good work.
