Suppose it's rude to come back doing polls without showing some sort of progress for it.

Ouch.

While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.

Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!

Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.

This whole "making a new battle frame" situation does give me an excuse to add some things I had been putting off for far too long.

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

I might be having too much fun with this process...

Turns out what the game actually needed was for me to take a proper break from development and enough time to realize what I had broken.

(It was the values tied to IDing what foe it'd be.)

It'll likely need more testing, but we're back in buisiness!

I know it's completely unintentional, but I swear this is the universe trying to convince me to dig my old handiwork out of retirement and do something with him.
