Just to point this out, You don't get that many points for graphics, (maybe an extra 1 or 2), as graphics take a while to insert, which takes time away from other things of the hack.
Edit: Also just gonna edit to inform of the judging process. Each judge has 3 catagories to vote on, Mapping, scripting and originallity. A maximum of 10 points will be rewarded to each catagory by each judge, (3x10x4 = 120 points total) The total points will be added together and divided by 4 to get the "overall mark" (eg, [[22+23+24]/4] = 17.25, In the event of a tie for the overall mark, the hacks in question will be judged again. |
Do miner hacks count? Doing a full hack in 4 days is a alot of work for newbie :)
*looks for the guides* *finds spare Firered ROM* *Adds Scripts, That is a hack to me* *Advance map miner things* |
Question: Are we allowed to post random screenies and stuff?
|
Question: Does it actually have to be a Pokemon hack? :D

Question; Do hacks that are in the 'Sideshow Showcase' The smaller hacks that are generally 386 hacks with hardly any map edits, are they included or is it just bigger hacks?

By another ROM you mean I can do non-Pokemon? Because that's what I was asking.
|

'Kay, each hack can have only one post of screenshots to show their progress. When submitting your Speedhack in, you can post all the screenshots your Speedhack has in spoilers. That way, things can be more organized and NurseBarbra will calm down. |
Question: Would I be able to set it in the same region as my actual hack, therefore using some of the maps (that I made) from my hack? Or would that count as cheating?

Hacker(s): DrFuji
ROM Base: Fire Red Title of Hack: Pokemon Reflections Storyline Plot: You start off in a small town and choose your started Pokemon so you can be just like your rival who already has his. After beating the first gym, the Gym Leader asks you to run an errand for her, which inadvertantly leads to you being cursed with a demon that seeks to eat away at the people around you. Alone in the world with a deadly curse hanging over your head, you have to find a way to put everything back to normal.

Hacker: Cutlerine
ROM Base: Leaf Green Title of Hack: A Grand Day Out Storyline Plot: Upon seeing Team Rocket try to blow up Route 1, you attempt to find out what they're doing and why. Along the way, you encounter idiots, references and utter stupidity. Also betrayal, and maybe some irony, if you're lucky. Credits: LU-HO (A-Map), HackMew (XSE, Overworld Editor RE) Screenshots: Spoiler:
Download Below Phew. I started making this last night, and it's all right for about sixteen hours' work. I must never, ever try and make a hack in that space of time ever again. |
I guess Speedhacking was too rushed and such. Although you had about a week, I guess this wasn't as successful as the other hosts planned out. There won't be judging two hacks (lol, that'd be pretty weird), so the staff will just hand out a participation emblem to DrFuji and Cutlerine.
|
If I known it was a basic hack I would have entered, But you said we have to do a whole hack in 4 days :)
