Battle Backgrounds
You're in luck! When I was mapping the game, I went and saved all of the extended battle backgrounds used in the game. I saved them with all of their animation frames and separate layers. How should I go about uploading them? Should I bother animating the ones that have animations, or just put up static versions? I've actually been using the extended Gwarhar Lagoon background in my Jul bio for the longest time. :P --Peardian 21:45, 14 June 2011 (EDT)
- Cool, that is nice, I coded myself a program, well, an editor in progress, that would get me all the backgrounds from the ROM, but mine are all static backgrounds. I have not made them into image format files, that would probably take a little more work. Since you have animated versions, those would probably be cooler. I suppose you could upload the animated images and post them on the content page here. That's like 39 images (40 including the grid one), so good luck. Edit: Oh yeah, I think one of them is a duplicate. --~ charleysdrpepper ~ 23:23, 14 June 2011 (EDT)
- Well, they're not animated to begin with, but it shouldn't take too long to make them so. Also, as I said, I only have the backgrounds used in game, so unless that grid background IS the unused one, someone else will have to get the other unused one. Oh yeah, and since I don't have access to the ID numbers or anything, I'll be organizing them in roughly the order they appear in-game. If you want to re-arrange them in ID order afterwards, you're welcome to, or you can leave it if you think users would prefer to see it that way. --Peardian 08:29, 15 June 2011 (EDT)
- Okay, but the ID numbers are similar to the way they are ordered in-game. So I probably could label them with the ID numbers. The unused background I'm talking about is a purple-based background much like some of the maps at Woohoo Hooniversity, but none of those maps in-game had any battles, so you never got to see the battle background. --~ charleysdrpepper ~ 23:59, 15 June 2011 (EDT)
- Oh, yes, that one. I remember seeing it in that one video demonstrating Mossy Goomba and such. If you could get me a code or something that would let me enter a battle on that background, I'd rip it too. Or, if you have VBA, you can just go into battle and use the map viewer to rip it like I did. Whichever you think would be better. Either way, I can't get it by myself. --Peardian 04:47, 16 June 2011 (EDT)
