Sega Brawlers Megamix demo

Yo people, me again. For some reason, the last upload of SBMM couldn't load font#1, but I fixed it now, and I'm playing it right now so I know it works. You can download it here:

Finally sat down to play this.  I'd actually argue that there's too many characters but I know that the crossover idea is part of the appeal.  However not only does that affect the long load times, it'll make balancing the game a headache.  Case in point, Gunstar Heroes seem a little overpowered.  I will say that I'm very impressed with the level design and the special menu systems.

Man, the last time I tried this it was like v4. I need to pick this up again sometime and see what's new.

Yeah, it can be overwhelming, which is why the menu's have colors, to show hoe many A.I.s are in the stage. I believe I put it down in the readme.txt. My best advice is that in big fights, don't get in the middle, attack from the outside.
Also, this is the reason I also have adventure and Arcade mode, but both need more content.

However not only does that affect the long load times, it'll make balancing the game a headache.  Case in point, Gunstar Heroes seem a little overpowered.

True, and there's not much I can do about load times, but for the balance for shooters, I may alter their MP so you wont spam your shots. I tried to do this with Alisia dragoon, but it may need more work.

I will say that I'm very impressed with the level design and the special menu systems.

Thanks.

It's mainly the roster of characters, but after I get Max and a few Golden Axe chars ready for this mod, I'll work on arcade mode next so yall can fight them bosses. The new Golden Axe Legends mod has some good choices, and even enemies I thought I'd have to rip myself.

What up folks, I got the Sega Brawlers updated and uploaded. Get it here folks:
http://www.mediafire.com/?kgbjuysyj62lg2a
4 new chars to the roster, and 5 stages in battle mode. Coming up next: A new mode.
I also edited my last upload in the downloads section, so approval needed. Peace.
EDIT: Almost forgot to mention3 things:
SBMM is paked now, no data folders here(yet), and use the OpenBOR build that comes in this zip file, the current ones now mess up the Front Panel and puts in in the middle of the screen. Once I figure out how it works, I'll update it for current builds. Also, remember to visit the option menu to change your controls, and set keys for attack 1 through 4.

I really loved the 16bit spirit, and the evolution of your mod always amazes me.

It's that time again folks. Keep in mind that I wanted to release this on New years eve or day, and I worked hard since last monday to fix up everything, but I couldn't work as fast or as much as I needed to. NY's eve I was gonna release this, but ran into some last minute bugs before uploading it, so I was gonna release this pass 12:00, but then I ran into one bug after another, and just as I'm gonna release it, Earthworm f***in' Jim had his freespecials crossed, so I just gave up and went home. I got it all fixed today but got sidetracked again, and mediafire takes almost an hour to upload it, so I missed the day just by half a damn hour. I guess late's better then never. 

Anyway, here's the new stuff:

--Rick Taylor and Mutant Rick updated for this mod.

--New moves for Earthworm Jim, Toejam and Earl thanks to The-Man-Of-Tomorrow from deviantart, the same guy who helped me out in the past with TJ&E, but his youtube account was banned.

--The-Man-Of-Tomorrow also provided me with a new stage called "Robotnick's Fortress" that uses a BG from the AoStH cartoon(The one with just sonic and tails, and the only one that featured Scratch and Grounder). I edited the panel to make it bigger.

--Another user from DA, RavTheHedgehog, provided me a stage for Oil Ocean from sonic 2, so I could use this metal remix of it with this guy who raps over it. You can listen to it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qsr-9-6h2Dc
I wanted that stage to be bigger so I edited his original design. This ain't smash bros son. 

--Newly added Alliance mode. Team up with four other heroes to take down hordes of mixed bad guys seen in adventure mode, then face 2 bosses at once. Since this was only 4 stages long, I made this a locked set until you clear adventure. Once I add more stages, I'll unlock by default, I just don't want players unlocking characters all willy-nilly..... at least not yet anyway. Look on the bright side though, at least Shiva, Metal sonic and the others can be used in this mode. 

You can download it here, and I'll upload to Downloads soon: http://www.mediafire.com/?v5jkzdhadnv4nm8

EDIT:
I edited my Sega Brawlers link in the demos section now, needs approval.

What up guys. I haven't done too much work on brawlers since the last release, but I have been going around character's txt files and adding "DropV 1 2 or 1 3" on certain attacks to throw off cheap juggling. It's gonna take a while before I get it all done because I'll have to go through every txt file to do it, but I wanna know if anyone here has any suggestions on it. Should I stick with adding dropV or use another method? I thought about juggle points but you'd have to set a certain amount of points for each character, and some of them have attacks that's meant to juggle, if for any reason the enemy is hit with it in the air, and wouldn't it have an effect on how much they can be juggled? Other then that, is there anything else?

 Dunno about you but for me pasting dropv 1 2 to every text should be quick enough. Only couple minutes .

 About your cheap juggling issue, you could use jugglepoint and jugglecost.

 I can understand your juggling dilemma, I prefer balancing it with other way. For instance, enemies which can be juggled easily have deadly or annoying attacks so player is in situation to juggle or die . Alternatively, you can add knockdowncount combined knockdown power to make juggling harder but possible.

 Simply put, you should challenge player's juggling skill instead of limiting it.

Do you not know how many playable characters are in this game now? It's like 60 somethin', and each have 4 txt files, and that's before the enemies.

There is that, and maybe it could work later on when it's only enemies your fighting, but I really meant it for battle mode, when your fighting other heroes. Just check out what happened around 0:36 of this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNk0WNmYsok

You also have to take into account that some heroes have combo attacks, and I'd like them to be able to juggle airborne enemies with them till their done. You also have characters like the guardian Heroes who shoot special DBZ style beams.

this mod is amazing in so many aspects. The only thing I don't like too much is the different size of chars (shinobi againts SOR enemies, for example) but its me.

keep the good work.

I also wanna thank you for your Fang rip, from Contra game. we are using it on our upcomming game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHr9-rUavj8

thank you again

[DJGameFreakTheIguana]

Glad you liked it, and I will fix the size thing int he future, but it wont look to pretty. I have already re sized a few chars though, like the Guardian Heroes and Chaos0(The water creature from sonic)

Your welcome, and man that game looks pretty sick, and you already have me waiting on this since I saw Spawn in your roster. Big fan of the comics and animated series, and I recently got Armageddon for Xbox. Not as good on some some points as Ghost Rider's game, but still pretty bad a**.

 Hmmm.... I've watched the video and I understand your dilemma. I don't think dropv and jugglepoints could solve it.

 I have an idea with script which works like this: in each character's FALL animation, there's counter using script which counts how many juggles this character has taken. If it reaches limit, it will change the animation to other FALL animation which has no bbox at all.
 This will prevent character from being juggled too much.

 Haven't tried this yet though but are you interested?

[DJGameFreakTheIguana]

Now that i thought about it, I may just stick with DropV cause the tests I did with it came out pretty good, but it wouldn't hurt to try your script to, I can could try it with bosses and other mods.
