A plethora of releases that was before they switched to the RC numbering system. The RC-1 release that came out on March 13th, 2011. Just grabbing it and archiving it just in case. The file name was FoE.smc but I don't have and can't seem to download it from the old sharesite. *Excludes expansions for base Chrono Trigger, such as Chrono Trigger Plus,Master Quest, Schala Edition, etc.ĭoes anyone happen to have a copy of Flame of Eternity's RC-4 release? Release without warning or fanfare to ensure a successful launch. We may also possibly crowd source ideas or 'what would you like to see' for community engagement, within reason (since fandom is rarely within reason when opening it up to feedback like that, haha).īuilding of said "Plus" enhancements and additions. This may require technical research into the ROM data and currently available tools, as we need to be realistic about what can be done with what we have (including data limitations). In tandem with Phase 1, brainstorming and documentation for what is realistic to change or add. This will include detailed note-taking to note both differences in builds, potential reversals of FoE changes to back to CE, and musings on where additional content/fixes/enhancements can occur. Replays of CE and FoE using both the final build of Crimson Echoes and the RC7+IHBP build of Flames of Eternity. Here's a tentative breakdown of how I envision this proceeding: I want this to be done right and with respects to the original authors.Īlso, would you be willing to either email me your ROM, attach it here, or send it to me via Discord? I can share me details if you don't already have them. I don't want to proceed without them giving the go ahead, especially with the previous legal threats hanging over their heads during the C&D era. Here's the thing: I think we should do this only if we get the unanimous blessing from the original director team of Zeality, Agent12, and Chrono99. Additional polish, plus expansions to the base game, could really do wonders for the Chrono fandom. Plus, in the decade plus since the leak, we have matured as creators and have a plethora of new tools that weren't available in 2005-2010. I think Crimson Echoes is the best bet at giving the Chrono series another story entry, and any current or future hacks are ages away, assuming we ever even get another full-story hack*. So I've been giving this a lot of thought and I am 100% committed to seeing this through. I feel like a full-length new-story hack is out of the question nowadays, and this could really create buzz and overshadow Flames of Eternity. Plus, now we have a plethora of Mauron's TF addons that weren't available 10+ years ago.ģ.) Human Glenn replacing Frog (or perhaps even an event or quest to show him turning back)Ĥ.) Overall combat balance (let's face it, vanilla Crimson Echoes was hard)ĥ.) A world map for the Reptite Dimension! (especially now that we can have more than 7 overworld maps)Ħ.) Some new, enhanced tilesets - perhaps some new, non-ruined 2300ad tiles for Chronopolis, for example?ħ.) New and/or expanded events (I know I always hated the first few chapters of the game they felt rushed and convoluted, so perhaps we can reshape them a bit to make them flow better?)Ĩ.) Perhaps a new file NG+ ending (a la Chrono Trigger DS' Dream Devourer ending) that closes the door on Crimson Echoes and the legacy of King Zeal? Not sure how feasible this would be technically, but worth throwing out there.ĩ.) Eighth character patch included with an eighth character? (another long shot, but worth a mention).Īnyway, just a few ideas I've had buzzing about my head. Maybe Agent12 and some of the others would be interested in coming back for a little hacking fun, or perhaps not. Or we could take Flames of Eternity and work backwards/forwards from there? I'm curious if there'd be any interest in taking the Crimson Echoes beta that leaked and giving it some 2021 polish (QoL). You know, I've seen a lot of talk on Reddit over the past few years about Crimson Echoes vs Flames of Eternity.
