Survey: What screw-ups while rom hacking make you the most mad?

Insertion of new tiles is the devil. I still don't get it. I have a go at it, fail, get more frustrated than I've ever been, put it away for a while, then repeat the process. (All the time renewing the "frustrated than I've ever been.")

When you run out of space to add things that made me mad

Lol more specifically tilesets. You wanna add just one more different looking tree or maybe a fence but no every 8x8 possible is taken. xP I'm a little nervous for my rom actually since I have to use a-map 1.92 for emerald for when I insert new tilesets... eventually I'm gonna run out of offsets to repoint stuff and then I'll be screwed because I can't repoint new map sizes or tileset insertions to any offsets that are in the extended part of the rom which sucks ... hopefully I can find a bypass of this later

Cheers buddy, I'll check it out tonight/tomorrow morning and try to gather a calm mind before setting out on another tile adventure.

Right now, probably inserting graphics like a titlescreen or battle backgrounds and getting just a white screen when testing.

Really, you would do that ? I'll PM you right away.

Not exactly a screwup... but not having enough space on the tileset you're adding new tiles to, cus' that thing can't exceed 128*192...

I screwed up in finishing it. Too less motivation these days. :/

I also Get mad when i screw up with all palettes in the game for Adjusting one sprites, that has happened to me many times in OW spriting! Now it doesnt happen, but it used to happen when i was new in hacking.
