Ok now I'm confused lol, did you want me to import those sprites over BOSS Soma or Normal main game Soma? Because I was under the impression you where suggesting to import them over Boss Soma for this hack. Lol I was talking about main game Soma. Since recolored Soma is the end boss for the trio, I thought you could do the same for main game Soma, using the sprites from DLS hack, but the new palette from your boss Soma, and just rename new main game Soma 'Dracula'. Making sort of a psuedo prequel leading up to Julius mode.

Make Alucard into a boss, hack Soma edited into The Count into Julius mode (OR replace Menace with Soma boss edited to Alucard) and make "Dracula taking his boy home by force" type of story...

But aren't the Dark Soma sprites simply the boss sprites from Julius Mode put into the maingame? If so it would not matter since those are the same sprites that I edited for this hack so it would not make since to replace them with the ones from that hack, besides the sprite sheet for maingame Soma is vastly different than boss Soma's and would not be easy to replace since Boss Soma's sprites are in pieces rather than put together. Not sure how the hack was done. Iamme has it posted as Dark Lord Soma in DoS. In that hack, the Dark Lord Soma sprite replaces Normal Soma. So I thought, since you hadn't changed anything on Soma's story mode, that you could just open DLS hack in DSVania, Export DLS Soma sprites, Open this hack, and import Soma Sprites, overwriting normal Soma. If not it is no biggie, just an Idea. DPA meant that Somacula mod I made combines BOTH player Soma & Boss Soma, making custom Soma unit. If he put Drac into that... You get MESS from partly Soma & partly Drac. For that to work either usual Soma need to be edited to match Drac, OR Drac's limited set of animations need to be used for all Soma's actions. Let's not forget DSvania is unable to properly mod various attack animations for protags, be it Soma or Johnny boy. First variant with changin palette of usual Soma will be simplier, but... Soma boss & Soma player have different palettes. I edited boss Soma to match player. So either fully edit player Soma or edit custom Drac...

It is a great hack either way. But this way, players will have something new to check out for both modes. Thanks again guys.

Do you still have the Castlevania 3 hack? When I get the file from that link all I get is the readme.txt file and not the hack itself is there any way you could make another link with the hack in it especially since my r4 card is coming in the mail soon and I'm sure you've heard that starwyvern has bought one too I'm not sure when his is coming in mail but mine's coming very soon and I would like to have your Castlevania 3 hack for Dawn of Sorrow to be one of the hacks that are on that r4 card especially since I've played that hacked before and I really love that hack it's a whole lot of fun to play

I just checked it and its fine, it comes with the ppf file and the readme.txt, the ppf file may just be called "file" on your pc but its the actual ppf file that needs to be patched. In the readme.txt in the hack I point out how to install it but I'll post it here again,

Nice one, Pachislot Alu is so much like Sephiroth, loving it. Also thumbs up for upping the difficulty. I think various editions with voice options is good idea for a next step.

Hey everyone, thanks to a recent playthrough I saw from Drameloch I noticed some issues that needed to be corrected,
1. Was Alucard's meeting sprite being seperate from his main sheet so I found it and replaced it with the appropriate sprites. 2. Another was a opening in a wall that caused you to get stuck so I fixed that as well. 3. And lastly there was a issue with the entrance door from the Demon Guest House, turned out the door location was accidently moved, its fixed now.
The download link has now been updated with a V1.1 download link, please be sure to post any glitches in the future so I can get to work on fixing them as soon as possible.

I have tried this hack out, but I need to start a new game with Soma, and playing with Soma is almost impossible in this. Is there a way to cheat so I can just start a new game in Julius Mode so I can play as the team?
