🤜How to play AQUILION: you have to choose the league "Ace League", Aquilion is the first circuit of this league. (All the other races are broken)
🌌 NEW CONTENT in G-One 0.7🌌
I'm proud to announce that it's the second level I made using:
Tiled: for the composition (which allows you to arrange tiles much more easily and finely than with Fuzee)
FZEdit: for the integration, AI creation, etc. This is the future of F-Zero hacking! (currently "Work In Progress" which is why I didn't finish everything graphically for this new level.)
AQUILION development progress:
___ Gameplay
Level Design = 100%
AI & Difficulty tuning = 100%
___ Graphics
Palette = 100%
Tileset = 70% (I'm going to add diagonal jump bars to make it look better than the current jump strips.)
Road background composition = 50% (You can see turbines in some places, I would like to add many more when it will be possible with FZEdit.)
Horizon = 0% (I want to make an horizon with "flower cities" like: https://u.nu/cityflower and many wind turbines)
___ Music = 0% (the music in the video is the one I made for CLOUD OCEAN: • F-Zero big hack = CLOUD OCEAN = Custom Tra... )
Note: in the game, this circuit is called "aKuilion" for now because the game doesn't allow to use the letter Q... for the moment... ;)
🕹️ ZIP ARCHIVE & HOW TO PLAY 🕹️
The archive contain 2 files:
the patch, that modify the F-Zero ROM with all the modifications of G-One 0.7 that you can see in this video
"flips", the patcher, to apply the patch you prefer on your F-Zero ROM.
To use flips to patch the ROM, you need:
the F-Zero ROM (hearderless, so the most widespread, which is 524,288 bytes). Copy your ROM before patching it because flips will modify the ROM, without coping it first.
to follow the very simple steps of this video (thanks to the author Tomatobird8): • How to apply or create patches using Float...
NOTICE THAT: I'm not allowed to give a link to download the F-Zero ROM, for the simple reason that it's forbidden (or this video will be deleted instantly).
On the other hand, I want to make it clear that I don't want to incite you to practice illegal emulation (although I find it a wonderful way to easily discover old and beautiful games, so it makes it easier for everyone to access art... and of course it allow hacking, that is a wonderful world of incredible artistic creations I just discovered!).
So please make sure you own the original F-Zero game before doing anything illegal.
I'm also not responsible for any problems you may encounter using the files I share.
