Nice! As soon as I am able to edit posts, I will update my list to include these. Glad to see some progress made.
Did you ever figure out how to deal with the background in the hoverboarding stage, Zeric?
No I haven't figured it out yet Jon, but I will think about something when I start that stage again.

Have you tried ripping the background, or is that not an option?

Dot? Dot. Dot!
If I remember correctly, the only available way to rip the background is to intercept OpenGL calls, and that usually results in capturing hundreds of 16 x 16 tiles, and putting them together to form the original background is a puzzle best left to masochists...

Now that you talk of it - maybe there is a pattern for how the backgrounds need to be reconstructed. At least I don't think the developers put the backgrounds in this way. I might test it with some backgrounds and tell you what I find out. Because I already needed PSX backgrounds some times but didn't want to put the backgrounds together out of 16x16 tiles. For example the Rayman PSX backgrounds look much better than the PC version's ones but at the moment there's no easy way to get them out of the game.
Redone another stage and this time it is Clown Man. One of my favorite stages.
The next one I will take on is Frost Man and it's another one of those snowboard stages which I hate so much.

Great work Zeric, really clean and pretty! I'm eager to see what you'll accomplish on that snowboard section; I'm sure you'll surprise us all :)

Ah, thanks. I needed those. *Shakes pompoms like crazy*
Awesome job, Zeric. As you can see, they're the December 2007 Maps Of The Month.
I also made a Mega Man 20th Anniversary front page Feature thingy that takes you to a random Mega Man game.
