For it's 20th anniversary I'm doing Donkey Kong Country 3.

I'm nearing completion on DKC3 and I discovered something.  During the ending you see the cast of characters like in all DKC games, but in DKC3 they appear to be wandering around various levels.  It turns out it's only 4 levels everybody is walking around in, 3 look just like they do in the game but the 4th doesn't.  It's a recolor of Ropey Rumpus to make it look more like the other mountain levels, and unfortunately since I can't play it that's at least one map I can't get for the set.

Congratulations, that's another massive project under your belt!

[Trop]

Thanks.  This one was murder too.  Every stage with water in it was it's own little hell to map.  I thought about maybe doing DKC but halfway through this I was like Nope, nope, not gonna happen.  But I'm glad I did it.  Beautiful game.

Commissions are closed

[JonLeung]

Cool!  But I might suggest that maybe you make a separate topic about commissions on the "Map Requests" board.  More intuitive for a requester to find it there than to come into this topic.

Only SNES, GB, and GBA?  I assume GBC is meant to be there too?  No NES or (1990s) PC?

[Trop]

Yeah I meant GBC along with that.  No NES since I'm just not experienced enough, and what experience I do have with PC has taught me it's a total crap shoot so none of that.  Also I never meant to attract commissions through this site, just to people that stumbled onto my DA page.  Part of my speech to any commissioner was going to be "So I'll post this here and at VGMaps".  Only if they disagreed would I restrict the image to being up at whatever place they specified.

[JonLeung]

I would hope no one would commission a map that wouldn't be on VGMaps!

[Trop]

I don't really see that happening.  The only scenario like that I can think of is if they want a "for my eyes only" deal.  In which case I'd have to email it too them, and it would never appear anywhere online.

[JonLeung]

Get any requests yet?  Did LTIan pay for Road Runner's Death Valley Rally maps yet?

[Trop]

Nope.  I think because I already told him that the difficulty on road runner is huge.  So the cost would be too.  He might way to start with a simpler game.  I should probably just do a difficulty assessment on all the loony toons games now.

[Trop]

In retrospect I don't think I could make the money on commissions they would cost to create time and energy wise.  Oh well.
