I'm Stopping My Hacks. But...

Standard

Yes, that's it. I'm tired of always failing on my ideas. If I don't fail on them, it's because I don't even have one. So, I'm stopping my hacks, forever. But it's not exactly the end. I'll stay here playing the other hacks. Also, I'll try to give my last chance to these hacks continue growing. I'll leave my two projects: The Bramble Invasion and Adventure In Surreliatus, both patches on this thread.

If you want to, you can download them, and enjoy what I done. Also, both hacks are still unlocked, and you all can edit it as you want. But please, if you will modify something, follow my wishes:

1. Don't change the hack's title,
2. Give some credit to me, because I started the fail projects.
3. And don't change the hack's main theme.

So, that is it. My both IPS Patches are in this zip.

My Hacks



So... Good bye, Super Mario World Hacking.
Now I leave my IPS patches of my hacks for everyone play and edit as you want to.

Bramble Invasion & Surreliatus


Why give up? I've been working on my hack for a few months with little support and I still haven't given up. I guess it comes down to really having that self-motivation to completing your hacks.

Well, some hackers don't exactly have that iron will that can't be stopped when it comes to working on hacks. Some hackers will lose that iron concentration and cancel hacks, since they have no motivation.
Motivation can be a real killer, I totally understand that.


The one word of advice I can give is this: Games suck until they're good. You can work hundreds or thousands of hours on a game and it might still be crap. Is it because there's a problem with the idea? With the creator? No, neither of those. You must focus your efforts on stuff until they're fun, not leave them boring and say to yourself "I'm tired of this, I'll make something else that will be good." It won't be.
He may have all the willpower in the world, but if he's not having fun, what's the point in continuing? SMW hacking is very time consuming, and appeals to a specific form of creativity; soldiering on to finish something you don't enjoy doesn't make sense, and if he did enjoy it, failiure wouldn't stop him from continuing to practice and improve. So it's a no-brainer really.
What does the Mario franchise teach us? If we find money laying around, we should take it. If we encounter wildlife getting in our way, we should feed it alive to a pet dinasour or failing that, crush it with our body weight. Oh yeah, and save the princess.
You guys are right. I neglected to mention that I still have fun hacking in my post. I don't know why but hacking and programing just seem like so much fun for me. I guess I'm just a weirdo like that.

I take long breaks on my hack because I'm too lazy. I've been at mine for a few years now.
