halloween.png

Halloween 2015 is just 2 weeks away and we at GBAtemp thought it would be fun to celebrate by partnering with 3DSGamerWorld.com to give away a brand new Supercard DSTWO+ edition flash card to 5 lucky winners!

To be in with a chance of winning we want you to get in to the Halloween spirit by carving a pumpkin! Simply take a photo of your finished pumpkin carving (which has to be gaming related) and upload it to this thread to enter the competition. The best 3 pumpkin carvings (selected by our staff) will each win a brand new SC DSTWO+ courtesy of 3DSGamerWorld.com

So get creative! Your carving, which must be a real effort - no Photoshops please; can be about anything gaming or GBAtemp related. We're not simply looking for the most skilled carving, we're looking for originality!

However, if you're not much of a pumpkin carver - don't worry, you can also enter this competition by leaving a reply to this thread as we will be raffling off the remaining 2 SC DSTWO+ cards to anyone who submits a reply.
Happy Halloween to all our members and good luck!

All I've been a Able to afford is a 3ds, Pokemon Y and homebrew channel. I can't really carve a pumpkin and I don't celebrate Halloween so a comment it is.

I got a huge one yesterday for £1 here in the UK. I got it early as last year we waited until just before Halloween and couldn't find any.
I looked it up before we went and apparently they keep for 3-4 months.

A decent sized pumpkin is probably $15-20 in my area if I could carve a little better I'd by one and try, but I only ever been to able to carvings right after 3-4 tries.

    good night

    as to you

    How do you know if the night will be good when you're asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    because i didn't say i was asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    i said i was sleeping...

    sleeping with uremum

    Even my mum slept on that uremum
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
