Aarrgghh!! I am so disappointed in myself, not checking in at my own forum!!
*attacks own self*
[attack=635111984753143]
Bioniclegenius, along with anyone else who might check in here, should attack me as well....
Anyway, the Super Metroid hack of Eris will finally be released on the 31st of this month. That's this coming Friday. Please let me know here if you want to race starting when it's released, okay?? I'll start playing it then either way, but it's more fun with a little competition. ;D If the race is on, then can you please do me a favor and not wait for me if I get stuck, like at a boss battle or whatever?? I feel that's what killed our Cliffhanger race, you waiting for me while I was stuck at Ridley. We both seemed to lose momentum and then motivation at that point, correct me if I'm wrong....
(off subject, but also check out the Super Metroid mini hack of Grand Prix, it's short but sweet!!)

I asked your question and Acheron86 answered my question and yours. ;D I guess I have to make a return trip to the ship to heal and then go where I got to go.... The Cliffhanger crabs are nicer to us than the Eris ones, I must add. Just in case you check here first: You've got charge... go explore the area where you found your first missile pack. (Edit) The Spoiler box is white, will have to do something about that....

Update: I managed to find the next key item but thanks anyway. Current status: Morph ball, bombs, missiles(30), E-tanks(6), Grapple, Charge, Secret Item, Super Missiles(12) Kinda stuck right now ...again This hack wasn't so easy as I thought it should be....most because of all enemies that almost kill you instantly. PS. I found one statue that Opium mentioned in the first page edit2: Forgot that I picked up Spazer

I posted your question again.
I'm wondering where Bioniclegenius is, I'll have to e-mail him so he can join the festivities. Probably busy.

How long have you progressed Schnoz?

Firing up the PSP, 13 minutes. I have to make it back to the ship, heal, then get my first missile tank. The only item I picked up so far is the morph ball. I might be better off using the ZSNES on the computer using savestates, do you think I should??

Okay, I'll fire up the ol' ZSNES. I'm curious, can you beat Cliffhanger without savestates??

Post by folkskygg2 on Jul 30, 2009 22:15:06 GMT -6
No way. It's impossible to save without savestates in cliffhanger. And cliffhanger is impossble to beat without dying imo. I always use savestates when I play hacks

I agree Cliffhanger is impossible to beat without dying, but it IS possible to save without savestates: The only place is at the ship. Truly a savestate fest though. That's one I won't try on the PSP, easy or normal. Fun on the emulator.

Thanks for being willing to help . I'm not stuck right now but figure I should give an update anyway: I have the morph ball and 2 missiles. I'm exploring the area past the metroid that has to be lured away from the next door, past the respawning bugs, past those pincher things that grab you. I'm in the area where the first pirates are. Without missiles it's not possible to pass through here but now I can. That's pretty much where I am right now. I can't remember if it was you or Bioniclegenius that told me to check this out: forum.metroid2002.com/index.php/topic,7771.0.html I remember checking it out but I don't remember checking out the video on the 4th post of this thread. I watched it earlier today and, man, I couldn't stop laughing!! That video is hilarious!! Someone opened and started a Windows laptop and the usual startup sound was heard. It was as if the guy reading a book just could not be out done by that startup sound. *Oh yeah?? That is what you call a start up sound?? That startup is weak!! Now I have to school you!!* Ha ha, I couldn't stop laughing, playing that a few times!! That is one hilarious video....

Wow, I log in right now and you've already beaten it!! You are a better explorer than I . May I ask what your end comments are?? Or would you rather wait until I've beaten it?? Also, when DMantra comes back, I'm sure he'll have that list of players who've beaten it complete with times and percentages at the first post. Either that or I'll send a personal message with a complete up to date list so he could put it there. Did you want me to make sure you're on that list?? I'd direct DMantra here so he knows I'm not making your time and percentage up ;D. From where I left off at my last post here, I just went around in a circle basicly. There might be an energy tank or two I may have missed (didn't pick any up as of yet), also there might be another missile pick up which I only found one so far. I have morph, I'm guessing either bombs or this Evasion item is next.... I seem to be stuck but still feel there's more to explore. I'll check back here whether I've found where to go next or not. Thanks for any help.

There's one E-tank on the way to the first missile pickup. The room with some dead bodies and grey bush-like "thing" in the middle. It's the room before the elevator. Just shoot randomly in the middle of the grey "bush" and you'll find it .[/ Acheron just made a progress list on page 10 and that's all you need for key items If you want to put me on DMantras list I think it's best with "the guy who can't log in". Or what do you think?

Thanks, I used the list for that item in the kitchen. I might use that list from here on out. There's another useful list on page 11 now of that thread also. I'm not sure if DMantra will give anyone a harnessed status like he did with Cliffhanger, but I think I'll probably qualify.... About you on his list, either "the guy who can't log in" or "Folkskygg" would be okay with me. Either one would work with me. Whichever you'd prefer. If I need help that's not covered in that thread, I might ask here, otherwise I'll keep letting you know how I'm progressing.;D

I first thought it was best staying incognito because of my ban but I think it's better with Folkskygg.
Now I'm playing a second round trying to get 100% item pickup

Hmm, there's something I want you to comment on: My method of getting charge beam . I posted in the Eris thread about this but so far I haven't really gotten an answer as to whether or not anyone feels it's cheating. I applied the infinite bomb jump patch to my copy of Eris. So, what do you think?? Also, in Ext_Qrt's post which is on top of page 15 of the thread, he mentioned places I might need or even prefer to infinite bomb jump. Then he posted a movie file. Since I only use ZSNES instead of 9X, I can't tell if the patch was applied before the video and then played or if manual bomb jumping was used. So, please comment on my method of getting that item and please comment on the video if possible, okay?? Thanks!! By the way, good luck on your 100% run. I'm not sure if it counts or not but one of DMantra's testers got 100%. I'm sure it'll count in your run because you weren't one of the testers of the hack before release. ;D

Actually you can't get Charge beam without grapple anyway so I wouldn't call that cheating. In general I don't know. You don't need IBJ to beat the game so I think it should be up to Dmantra to decide. Found 91% this far and don't know if I want to continue...
