| Eeeemh... Hi
I never tell my real name, but i'm known as Conte de Contis, aka Dinomar and i am 17 years old. Seems that this thread was inactive for some weeks (with Christmas it's normal), so, i hope i am not getting wrong  - I acutally logged in because this fact of custom models in SM64 interested me a lot: when there is something that requires "creativity" i am really happy  - I acutally hope i don't get taken around for some things i do (for example, with messain's model importer i imported a "giant toilet", but only for fun). If there is a talent on where i really brag myself, that's "art". I acutally apologize if my english is not good enough, english is not my native language, i am italian. I hope on a good welcome |

| It's cool the idea to make a competely new level with those features: it must be a pain But i have some questions: -There will be water editing soon? I acutally searched it (with the magical "find" button) in the thread and i have understood that water box editing is not sure in TT64 0.6.0, and this was asked just some months ago, so, i was wondering this. -In future will be possible to modify sprite's models? I acutally mean modify the body parts (we can notice that Mario's model has not a skeleton like in earlier video games, but has peaces that make arms, legs, head, etc... - I acutally don't mean changing peace position to make new animations, but only changing peace's models (for example, making Mario's head having "Spock like" ears XD). Just like a character like this (this is just a quick sketch), that would require to modify only few parts, like heads, hands, ect... I'm not hopeful on this, but i was acutally wondering this too. It is not acutally a request, but just a curiosity. I hope i didn't ask anything of goofy 
Thanks in advance. Edit: about the second question, i also read that thread made by RomanianGirl, now that i am remembering, and i understand the problem: but i still wonder that :/ -------------------- |

| Ehi look what i made! I chiseled it!
Ok, seriously, those are some models i made. I'll start from the less interesting one. 1- "Toilet": 
I acutally made this for fun, and not for serious concept, but it looks like this in game. 2- "No, not into the pit, it buuuurns!": 
I made this for fun either, but this is not as foolish as the one on the top (aside the title). Acutally, i made this only for the effect of gradient in the pit. You may notice, this is also good for "Lethal lava land" background. This looks like that too, but it's darker and the gradient is not so good :/ 3- "Borough": 
This is the most serious one, and i mean to make it as good as possible. This acutally comes from a homework which teachers in School of Comics gave me (and other coursemates or whatever is the term i am italian and i have not learnt english enough yet), so, credits go to Internetional School of Comics, at Florence (it's strange, but i attend both superior school and the Comics one) - This was the homework, i enjoyed making it, so i wanted to port this in 3D in the game - Since this, i could include it in my SM64 hack. I didn't start it yet, but with TT64 0.6, i will (but i can't promise anything). Making 3D models is acutally long, but we have to have patnence. BTW it's acutally incomplete.
I hope i'm doing things regularly. -------------------- |

| Hi, i hack smw either.
I have some screenshot of a hack i'm Some screens I also say that i finished all cutscenes in the game, but those are only 4 of 12 i made, and they are not in order. 
(Let's ignore the status bar, i don't have material to remove it) 
As you see, it's more a cartoon. 
The reason of Dinomar name. I acutally disabled Layer3 with Zsnes. 
The mad doctor, Dr. Brian Brain Queer (meant as strange, not as gay  )
Don't disappoint him. Now, going with level design. 
Sea desolation. It's acutally an autoscroll level, water on the bottom is acutally layer 2 and i can swim on it 
More terrain, i also would need the ROM address of how many balls the Pokey has with/without Yoshi sprite. but the strange guy stands on the water anyway
A wicked fish comes into the game - It's acutally Bass sprite.
Some animals, i'm going to change their graphics, they look odd. 
Protecting himself in another EWJ like terrain 
Fail, "me eated" (also bird and fish graphics) For this hack, that's all. I am also working on a side-hack, but i don't tell what, but i'll show some graphics into the credits. 
The "odd" guy at right it a caricature of SpriterSonikku, but it's for nice joke purpose
I also made other few and little credit caricatures. (censure is to don't ruin the surprise) 
After credits, i'll show an "art gallery" in the game
I have made other works. In videos, though. Also an overworld and a glitch showoff, where i made a blooper, but it's the minor thing. That's all, for now, but i may show more. I acutally know this is more ROM hacking than SMW, but i don't think there is another forum in this site where i could post it. Am i also allowed to have an individual thread, by the way? or that's only for relase? Thanks in advance. Dirbaio: that looks acutally funny. i wish i could acutally play NSMBwii, i don't have Wii either
But it won't be the first wish, my first wish is out of PC. -------------------- |

| Oh thanks dudes. For the third, yeah, i acutally drawn it, but in 3D they are just SM64 texture modifications, i was too lazy to make new textures. This time i won't make a borough on a cliff, but on an acutal plain.
I made a video containing all three models
And the borough is complete (i need to fix a null edge that makes an annoying invisible wall, into the house) for the last song, i wanted to put a "serious music", but WMG didn't allow me, so i had to put videogame music (but Beethoven will allow me his beatuiful music ). I'm waiting the TT64 with the importer, and who knows, maybe we will be able to import sprite models either (i acutally don't demand collision -------------------- |

| If it's permitted, i'll give my opinion (i'm acutally new user, but i understand about art and everything related)
I personally dislike mangas and animes in general, but i acutally aim to the drawing style: faces are acutally pretty good and i don't see anything of wrong as sketches. Scanner of Photoshop? you could colorize them, if you want, otherwise, good for you. You can have changes to be a good drawer(i dunno how many threads about arts, i was just snooping here). Bravo. -------------------- |

Good luck with programming, but if you get trouble with it, leave it (not for discourage you, you shoudl also have your idea about it  ). Even because VL-Tone, as far as i know, will include a lot of functions in the program. -------------------- |

| I am italian and this movie didn't come out it Italy: it will in 15 January. But from the trailer, i can give an opinion: i don't doubt it will be a masterpiece (it got overrated, as i see in cinemas) but i'd say the blue characters are esthetically awful. Matter of opinions (the smurgs accused them for plagiarism)
Thumbs up for special effects, though
This gives me a doubt: if i would put an avatar screenshot as avatar, i could have an avatar in my avatar...  -------------------- |

| I'd say my opinion about this: the trailer of this movie told me (way of saying) it clashes on somethings. Some characters look odd and clashy as live-action movie. It's clear enough that everything is fake and made with computers, i mean, so many special effect to seem unreal and fake (ok, if it looks real, it's fake anyway, like every fantasy movie). The queen is odd at every sense. It doesn't look real enough (the face reminds me Frieza from DBZ, i dunno why). the Cheshire Cat scared me.
Maybe this movie will be a kickass, it's even made by Tim Burton and must not be expected a Youtube poop, at all, but, in my opinion, there are too many special effects that ruine the movie. I also think this would have come much better as a 3D cartoon, imo, but i dunno if Tim Burton would to :/ This is acutally my opinion. Let's see in future. I also heard that Tokio Hotel will make the soundtrack... what a sadness! -------------------- |

Holy effing 3-up moons... i should remember this XD - Thanks but on something i could disagree: if i would show it in smw central, it wouldn't an epic post madness: firstly, i am banned for that awful and crappy crap, then... everyone prefers Broozer's graphiics uaaaaah D: So, this is not likely :/ About your video, i'd say it is nicely done level, but as you know, could have more criticism about it: i hope you don't get annoyed: 1- i acutally never liked "buy to proceed" method, like in SMW+2. but do as you want about it, it's your hack
2- in 2:21, there are those little coins that you get if you duck: if you acutally stand up there, mario gets blocked and goes to the left, and die: i acutally recommand you to fix all parts that contain this. 3- in 2:42 i didn't know they were pipes (also susaka said that, looks like): you should find a way to make people understand that's a pipe. Also:
No offense, maybe it's what they wanted you to believe!! And this acutally annoyes me because this gives me the proof that... or compliments, or nothing, if you give criticism you are an asshole!!! (it's an example) I remember when i tried to give advices... please hold me back otherwise i'll start to rant  ... (enough with this)
4- you may make passages larger that those, and maybe, remove some unnecessary sprites (if they are), sometimes, we try to make our best, but doing so, people may get stressed, seeing Mario always hitting ceiling with its head, some too much tight passages: in my opinion, FPI, in his SMW hacks, made the same mistake. It doesn't seem unfairly difficult, but a moderated playtrough is always enjoyable. 5- for the graphics, you could remove outlines to columns graphics and add them to wall's one and little passable bricks could use a darker palette. The BG sucks so much that i could put it on youtube and say "Worst background ever!" (i acutally can, becuase... i made that BG xD) Notice that i'm just giving some advices. And no drastic changes you need, agreeing
Thanks, also, there is no sprite that i can use to remove layer 3
Maybe there is in smw central, but i am not welcome anymore there (altough i acutally logged out when i was tempbanned) This is another screenshot of another my hack, which doesn't use any external ASM:  >
(it's acutally italian language xD) -------------------- |

| This thread is where i post my art skills, drawings and sketchs.
For now, i have one drawing, but let's see in future. For example, here is a character i made time ago (image is too big and i draw better on a real paper) this is a "portrait", instead. (pixel art i'm going to use in a my SMW hack) what do you think? -------------------- |

| What you could do is... a bricked pipe.
I mean, just use a normal pipe, but made of bricks, so, it could fit with the style. and maybe add an arrow on the top/bottom of the pipe, to make the player know you can enter through. i think that would be the best way. I mean, something like this below: 
IMO, that would look better (when i must make graphics that take me about 5 minutes, i do it anyway, it is not a long time XP) I know i'm critic poster, and it's right i am in this way! In serious camps, no one will accept a poorly done beta testing or some bad looking sketch! the problem is that culture is missing (and culture i don't mean what you learn at school). I could make a better version of that BG, also, i'm surprised people still use it, but i'm acutally glad of it XD Well, the acutal reason i don't like Broozer is that he bitched me before i was banned, then, he posted a dumb comment in my channel (in my opinion, he was envious or such becuase it was after i posted a video: when i posted "idiotic" comments, he just ignored it, so i don't know why he did two weeks later i stopped laughing of who annoyed me). I acutally don't trust Broozer's kindness, since that. I am acutally annoyed because altough i made graphics for long, few people thought at me, the rest was busy to bash me with smwc's mosts. I am acutally ready to forget all crap, but as someone told me, someone doesn't want to. That's cutoff, i know, but it's going to be an original SMW with different level design (i'll make english version) and i don't mind to that problem which is present in the original SMW either. if i would make graphics, i would be picky about it. I'll make it as similar as possible, like RAGB's hack - On this i'll make an expection.
Edit: a graphics set i was working on:  -------------------- |

| Updating!
I finally learned how to use Romi's cutscene tool (Variable Width Font): 
the first two images have been taken from avatars (of messagebords and youtube images, not the movie with wild smurgs). -------------------- |

Originally posted by FirePhoenix No, no, no, i swear on god that photo doesn't show Smallhacker and i didn't hope it was the result. If it was Smallhacker it would be angry, no? Also, since Smallhacker is fascist? This is the guy where i got the photo (and i am not meaning to bring problems of real life here, i just make it for lulz xD). The second is Grisbaman, right (lulz either) Originally posted by FirePhoenix Earthworm jim. I tried to understand how those graphics were assembled: they are pretty disorganized than other tilesets (kinda SMAS SMB3) and i wanted to make the same. This is the result. Yes, because SMW graphics is not as powerful as EWJ, i had to make it simpler. At the time they use 3 row of Map16. (i have also seen a video of how staff made Earthworm jim: very complicated stuff and before, sprites and layers's graphics were in HD, in a giant screen (not as giant as a cinema). the way we ROM hackers use to make graphics is not the best, but since YY-CHR and SMW's low graphics space don't let us make decent graphics as in EWJ. I remember that stuff happened on July. The reason i continued to complain is that i don't like when some people gets to flaming and no one make something while i, even if complaining, i get pwned. I admit myself i have been an *ss sometimes (kinda reviewing some hacks), but i don't feel guilt of that dumb comic or complaining because someone promise something and afthermath they don't keep the promise. I felt taken around, this is why i got angry. Anyway, i am ready to get over everything, we must see if other are ready. thanks for the comments, though. -------------------- |

| Excuse me, what is weaboo art?
Also, emotions is one of the most important thing you must implement in your characters: When a character is inespressive, it is just boring. In a cartoon, especially, you must give to your characters a lot of expression. We are not doing cartoons, though. A character can have a lot of expressions. I don't see some pointless black lines, but the next time i will be more careful. Full body shot? I made that too  - It is not equal, but i should improve about characters: some characters come always equal when i draw them, when i draw humans, it doesn't happen
Only solution: life drawing. Yeh, eyes gives a great expression and it's a good way to make the viewer understand the character's mood, but animes are too much exagerated, they have more eyes than brain xD - it doesn't have anything with the thread, though. More drawing: Characters 1 Characters 2 Those below were homeworks in School of Comics: Borough 1 Borough 2 Borough 3 (at School of Comics i was told that mine were one of the best works ^^) Mah boi room I made this the last summer: Girl -------------------- |

| Is weaboo offensive? whoa!
Maybe i got the matter, but i barely get the meaning (maybe found on Encyclopedia Dramatica, but i don't want to visit that crapful site), can you show some example, please? (You probably won't see many anime drawing, because it is not my favorite style) I also don't see a reason of whishing to be Japanese... <_> - If i even don't get what is that... don't expect anything. Can Weaboo art be every anime-manga made by not japanese? Or somewhat??? I am also surprised that you say this is one of the best thread... i didn't expect that, but the next time i should, maybe: no one told this about my art, in the internet (maybe in real life, but i must wait for it, than the internet...). I draw them with normal colored pencils (where you find in a shop center whoa), maybe this make the coloring bad. I would use Pantone colors (professional coloring pens), but they cost a leg of the body D: Maybe i think myself i can make expressions (it's required for the work i must do in the end of the year at School of Comics). my favorite expression is girl happyness
I made more drawing this morning (at superior school, where i already get bored and i do it when the boring teacher is distracted xD) Image 1 (Berofe SWMC guys misunderstand something: the guy at bottom-left is not Smallhacker, is my classmate) Image 2 (Silvio is Berlusconi the Italian prime minister, one of the worst presidents) Sorry for the italian texts, it's my first language. Edit: what does "DUR" sign means, that one after "encyclopedia"? -------------------- |
