Title: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: mtrain on September 30, 2011, 08:26:07 pm

The syndicate boss Mr. X is dead... But he was just a puppet...

Evil will be back... on the...
streets of rage.

Here is the concept:
- it is 21st century, 2011, other time, so i decide to make new look of new SoR game. But i want to leave original (classic) game mechanics: grappling, attack series, specials, items. I hope it will let you fill that you playing Streets of Rage.
- mr.X is dead, but he was only "someone`s" puppet. The storyline take its place after SoR3. Passed only 3 years, and our heroes must to resist a new enemy, who prepared a new plan and want to avenge mr.X and finish his blood work.
- There all new levels. But some will weave with parts of places you know from original SoR games.
- The cast is: Axel, Blaze, Adam, Skate, Max, dr.Zan.
- All game graphics, sprites and music i will make by my own, from zero.

Announce of my new mod. Soon i will add description about WIP.

My very early new look of Blaze )

There is, however, already a mod in development with the exact same name, so that could be confusing. :eek:

Yeah, you should come up with a new title. I would say SORX, but there's already SORXXX, maybe something like urban chaos or something?

Dead in 3, 2 ,1...

Let's face the truth guys.
Come on, at least give the guy a chance to show off some screen shots or somethin'.

 mtrain, are you making original sprites for this mod? if you do that will be great!

 Yeah, I thought someone revives the old thread in demo section.

 Hey, speaking of name, why don't you name it: Streets of Rage 5. ;D ;D
 Alright, I was half joking there, what about Streets of Rage: Real Evil.

Very nice looking design. There's already the same name as SOR4. Why don't you make a different subtitle? How about Streets of Rage: Chaos Town.

No mod or fan-made game should ever be called Streets of Rage 4, for obvious reasons.

Title: Re: SoR4 WIP
Post by: mtrain on October 01, 2011, 07:11:10 pm
The title "SoR4" is only the working title. I agree with Roel, I have no right to call the game Streets of Rage 4, because only God or sega knows how this project should be.

I can say that my mod action occurs after the events of the third part. All sprites are my own.

It is now a different time, other games ... Therefore, to create a project on Streets of Rage using sprites and levels of the previous installments - is meaningless.

The only game called Streets of Rage, which has all the charm and atmosphere of the original trilogy - is SoR Remake 5. Everything else - is unclear what ...

I am a HUGE fan of the SoR, and I am sad that the series has not officially continue  :(. And I have long wanted to continue this idea.

My story, my sprites, my music, my vision of a modern SoR. ;)

p.s.
Spoiler
sor4 I have outlined just a continuation. My working title is Streets Of Rage: Silent Storm.

Your last evolution of Blaze is far better than the first one you posted here.
Her hair is more like the Blaze we all love... ;)
But I still find her not Blaze-ish, perhaps because of the B**ch tighs-high boots? :laughing:
THe real Blaze is slightly softer, right?

I'm gonna agree here. Perhaps she should be more based on BK1 blaze, you seem to be going in that direction with the jacket.

At 1st I though you were making a completely 3D game with openbor, that would have amazed me lol.

Looking forward to see how the others turn out.

I try to find compromise betwen BK1, BK2, and "modern" look of Blaze (moreover, this is a female character, the most difficult in terms of design, so with her ​​I began). Animation of all characters i base on BK2 (except of Zan and Adam).

Now I am more inclined to such a design Blaze (this is just a quick sketch in Photoshop)

Good evolution

The top body is almost good (but I prefer to see her brunette, not black hair)
She also have to be less skinny, her arms can be a -little- stronger.

About the bottom of the character, I still don't feel it good.
I would love to see her with her "signature" red skirt, not a too figure-hugging one... and also less b**chy boots. Only regular ones. Her legs can be a little stronger, Blaze is not so skinny and tall.

Perhaps her hair have to get more volume on them.
Good luck!!

BTW : CHINESET850 the author of SOR4 demo have posted his concepts of Blaze several month ago, I can't find it, but they was wonderful!! Too bad he dropped the character of the roster

nedflandeurse, msmalik681 I understand your comments, thanks. as a spectator, I'd be surprised by her appearance, too.  :) The animation for the Blaze, I had already done (see how it will look at the dynamics). While I want to bring my concept. Let's see what happens.  ;)
Here is her final (at this moment) rendered look:

 Compared to the reference, Axel's arms looks smaller. His jeans is tight. But he's more handsome :).
 My suggestion is his arms should be bigger and his jeans should be less tight. And the jeans texture need to be changed.

 BTW can we see him in his uppercut pose? the last part of his freespecial?

But the classic palette doesnt looking good for me, because i cant set white border of the healthbar bigger than 1 pixel. So it will be proportional to the original:

Is Max gonna be in? I would love to see him with the new style of yours. Are there gonna be vault system? I know that in SOR2, Max can't vault. Can you replace his move to something like this (look at attachment). It's just an idea I have, I really wanted to try making SOR mod too but in KOF style but right now I'm still stuck on my Crows mod.. Great job Mtrain, I'll be waiting more progress from you..

Post by: Damon Caskey on October 15, 2011, 09:53:10 pm
Wouldn't that mess with his grappler controls?

There are a lot of ways to get around that. The simplest would probably be to add a direction command; Jump = side switch, UP+Jump = Jump with defender like he always did.

In any case, I think the animation above is OK, but should be reversed. Max should simply lift the Defender up a bit, turn and sit him on the other side (see FF3) instead of the Defender being stationary while Max awkwardly shifts around him. Animation would look better and more importantly it would appear more physically dominating - the way Max should be.

That's how I'd do it- I would change or update only a few things, I mean if the original games were considered great why mess with it? Most who are fans of the original will want to see the characters close to how they remember them.

I prefer this HUD to the other Because 1) it's close to the original & 2) you have more visual diversity:

Here is my new HUD design, in which I tried to get closer to the original, but olbarsize does not allow to make a thicker healthbar border, so enemy will have more simple healthbar.

Quote

My grappler controls for Max, and some other character will be familiar to Bare Knuckle: Yesterday once more MOD variant.

Now the haviest problem for me is enemy AI. Maybe there is already scripts for controling AI like in SoR? Any suggestions?

I've never had to do it, so I tried finding a post that would describe it easily and couldn't.

http://dcemulation.org/index.php5?title=OpenBORManual#LIFEBAR.txt

The way it's supposed to work is color 500 is what effects the color & BG transparency. I've seen a number of mods use it, so I don't think finding an example would be too difficult. If you wanted to do something more specific or fancy outside of Levels.txt, scripting would be the way to go; You can 'draw' graphics or use bitmaps with it.

The answer to these 2 problems is this command lbarsize and you can find it in manual above.
You will be able to use lifbars like this :

You know what it is... I assumed backfill layer adjustment meant it's position in the Z axis, but it actually effects the color. Duh, lol.

Yeah... lbarsize is all you need if you want both player & enemy life to be the same. Thanks Magggas.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: mtrain on October 17, 2011, 04:33:44 pm
I already used lbarsize, how do you think i get lifebar that size in 960x540 resolution mod?  ;D
But thanks for advice guys  :)

And here is the player icon, that compensate thiker borders (because standart command does not allow do that).
(http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/9829/iconyy.gif)

The trouble i wrote earlier in other.
How to make healthbar that stile for enemy if i must leave possibility of size changing (because each enemy have its amount of health and healthbar length, so olbarsize type is not percentage).

But i think the solution is to make many enemy icons such as player have with different lengths, and assign to each enemy. Or... to refuse from different lengths and make healthbar same as players and with percentage type. :indifferent:

To diversify the enemies, I use a color changing of individual suit parts. This avoids the simultaneous finding of two identical on-screen characters. Since in the classical division of SoR by rank were like, yellow, red, blue suit ... Now i can use 5 different suits of one rank.

Here is the redesign of my first Signal:

 Signal has shorter hair and his face is more visible now. It's great work nonetheless.
 Garcia looks great!

 BTW about Garcia's movelist, are you referring to SoR2 or SoR3? as we all know, in SoR2, Garcia is just regular enemy to beat while in SoR3, he's more than that (able to pick up knives and perform jump elbow).

ryomaneo, thanks for advice. :cheers!: But as i say earlier all graphics and art is my own, but i like the idea. Maybe i will redraw this poster in my stylistic ;)

Here is the second Donovan redesign:

Signal has shorter hair and his face is more visible now. It's great work nonetheless.
 Garcia looks great!

Thank you, BB! :cheers!:

BTW about Garcia's movelist, are you referring to SoR2 or SoR3? as we all know, in SoR2, Garcia is just regular enemy to beat while in SoR3, he's more than that (able to pick up knives and perform jump elbow).

I planed to add jump elbow attack and possibility of knife using.

Openbor supports its maximum resolution 960x540, and i use it for my mod.  Compared with 320x240 it is high definition.

Here is the first redrawing of police car.

Thanks DUDE! I'm still working on my TMNT MOD but I changed the resolution to 640x480, so I had to redraw the panels, since I was using 320x240 screen resolution, and I had to get rid of those black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. I also finished my first cut scene which is made of scans of hand-drawn comic book-like pictures of the turtles. I always check this website, but I never post anything maybe I should upload my cutscene it's in GIF format..

(couple minutes later)
 The video looks great! Couple stuffs are still missing such as Donovan's uppercut and fire effect from Axel's Bare Knuckle. It's good start!

 BTW what did Adam do at 1:07?
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: nedflandeurse on October 22, 2011, 05:48:49 am

Donovan have the uppercut attack, but in the video is not caught the moment with this attack, maybe he hesitate :) Fire to Axel`s attack i add later. at 1:07 at that time adam didnt have his own special attack so it was axels with adams pallete of course) But now i make Adams own freespecial, special and special2, at my peril, because SoR1 did not have that attacks.

Ah, make his skin darker like the original design and he's good.

no problem man, pretty much any time SoR is involved I'll give some input :D

Also, I think Adam's freespecial should be something unique of player chars, like a jumping knee for example, similar to the kickboxers in SoR2.

for a regular special I'm not so sure, I think Bombergames had the best idea with the Van Damme style split kick.

I hadn´t had the chance to review well this post, I have seen the video already, it looks pretty good, mtrain I like the way that the heroes arrive inside the patrol, the chars has the hability to vault and the adam´s uppercut send enemies high so he kicks them just like in SOR1, I like your char and enemy design, but I worried about this MOD, because I´m affraid it doesn´t work on latest devbuild or in some consoles such as wii or PSP, will it work on those consoles too?

Excellent looking Streets Of Rage characters you are making for your new project mtrain.

If you are taking any suggestions for what to call the next Streets Of Rage, how about calling it:
Streets of Rage: City Of Chaos.

I saw your other W.I.P. for Mass Effect, and the game play trailer you posted on YouTube, and I was completely amazed by the work and effort you put into it.

Now I don't need a high-end gaming laptop to play an excellent looking game like Mass Effect (As most PC type games of this day and age require you to have).  :laughing:  ;)

Keep up the great work !

Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: Damon Caskey on November 05, 2011, 12:53:23 pm
...

I haven't been a fan of the way you interpreted the other characters, but this one looks awesome! The only thing is maybe add just a bit more weight to his legs. Max's old school sprite had ridiculously huge legs; it's what set him apart from Abadede. If you think about it, it's also a very realistic explanation as to why Max's grabs did 3x the damage when he and Abadade were otherwise the same body size, heh.

BTW, this is more or less the method I wanted to use for Quests of Quein project. What modeling application do you use?

Good work!
But The outfit bugs me a bit. Or perhaps, it's the fact to see older Skate.
IMO, You better have to select one of these 2 choices:

-Older Skate = > new outfit
-Young Skate (or slightly older) => normal outfit

This is only suggestion.
Do you best!

nedflandeurse thanks for reply!) I also thought about Skates outfit (because i planed to make Skate little bit older, because time is going...))), and i think the best way is to change his outfit coloring, not the outfit parts (sorry for repeating)). Maybe black shorts with decals, and red tshirt... or somthing else. Because the combination of roller skates, shorts and tshirt with cap is best for this kind of character imo? What do you think?

With Skate beeing older, I think he would look better if his clothers were a bit bigger and baggier. Dont really change the way Skate dresses but spice it up a bit to make it look a bit different. I find he looks too much like SOR2 skate as where all the other characters have a new updated look.

Great job on Zan!

Yes, I'm OK with that, Try to give him some color changes to make his look more modern and less 90'kid :)
Try to remove the kneepads if you can.
I think he can be (a little more muscular) even if he's still young.
I can say by my own friends that black people who practices sports develops nices muscles when they become young adults.
Good luck Mtrain!

While the artwork is really impressive so far I hope you can also go the same distance in the gameplay.

At least on par with Rocket Viper 2 or Nightslashers X I'm hoping. Golden Axe myth wasn't that advanced in gameplay but it had a lot of class so if it goes along those lines I guess that would be nice.

Good luck, project looks pretty cool so far.

Only one thing I don't like on classic Blaze is the heels, but other than that great job on everything.

I love skate's new design, perhaps for the old fashioned, we could have a classic color scheme for this design? I love the new colors though.

Keep up the excellent work. :D

Mtrain, your Skate is now better than before! Good evolution ;)

About the enemies, it can be cool to use them like you did.
It looks more mecha-ish!! :cheers!:

Sorry for the crappy edit but about the look of Blaze, this is my advice.

-long hair
-shorter top
-skirt
-also I think she is a little bit too tall and skinny :blushing:

This is only simulation
ignore the color errors:

 Well, everybody else commented on the heroes so I go with the enemies instead. Great work on those bosses! Just reminding you that both bosses requires special AI coding since they don't act like regular enemies or bosses.
 Zamza prefers to stay still while waiting to attack from distance, he rathers leap away then get close at players if the latter gets close. But if they are close enough, he won't hesitate to claw.
 Jet is flying enemy. In SoR2 it's hard to touch this guy but in SoR3, it's easier but with the expense,he has more attacks.

 So are you going to brought their original AI in this mod or you have your own design?

As my first task was to save the atmosphere of original SoR games, i trying to make the appropriate behavior of all enemies. And i want that bosses will have the original AI, but it hard to get close to that. It is hard to me to scripting, so i use combination of follows and range settings.

Love the sor1 blaze w new hair design. with the new clothes design, she looks original, beautiful, elegant and perfect. I hope you will not edit the clothes anymore.  :) hope you will put her in game

skate looks good. the look is suitable for his age. looks like a NBA player.

 also love the boss, especially jet. i always thought zamza wear a mask, like balrog/vega  ;)

btw. my suggestion is that, you can use your original blaze design as a new female hero. edit it a bit (make her hair short, wear an army tank top or whatever). by doing so, you can have both sor1 blaze and your own character design. well, it is up to you, it is your mod and i only suggesting   ;)

Thank you, ghobot21 for reply. As for Skate i think I determined with his appearance. For Zamza i have special planes, so you will can see him in other appearances in game. As for Blaze... hm.. (how can i say it correctly taking to account nedflandeurse advice). I love the classic Blaze appearance because it is well known for fans, but one of the key points is that i want to make accent on the fact of time changing. It passed 3 years! Women, girls love to always change their appearances, clothes due to fashion, time, if not - it is a crime for them :) so my first Blaze concept is a tribute to modern girl clothes, but with a sign on a light mobility, given the constant presence in the battle, while maintaining the appeal and elegance, although it looks a little bit sluty. So thats why i want to use my 1st blaze design with high boots and short panti. Hm.. difficult decision.. :oops:

as a new female hero
As for this, i dont like the practice of new main characters involving. I want to concentrate on our well known six characters. ;)

Zamza // Souther

Just incase you didnt know. Zamza and Soother are actually different characters. Zamza is often compared to Souther because of the claws but they are actually very different so I dont like it when they get comparfed as the same character.

Great improvements on Skate BTW. But I think it would be a good idea to incorporate a little yellow in his outfit since all the other characters are still staying close to their original colours.

Great work! :cheers!:

BadChad, Actually i know the fact of that way comparing (if you mean Souther as level 2 boss from SoR1 (but who even knows what his name if it dont shown on screen ;D)), but in the level 6 of SoR2 Zamza in red outfit named as Souther, so thats why i write the Zamza / Souther. ;)

no, it would not.
First thing is i tried to use realistic bg`s earlier and have show you:

it is looks ugly. So i decided to use my own "pixel art" style drawing bg`s like all classic beat em ups have.

And second thing is that the scene from my screenshot takes it place at the middle of the city. Your picture is at side shore?

Moving layers is best. The original is good, but is less realistic than the characters ... And if vectorizes scanned images giving the appearance of drawing and create a background layers?

Hello mtrain.

Could you Add Shiva and Rod as playable characters?

I know a Kangaroo could be a little bit out of topic on SoR, but when i first saw him on SoR 3 and Shiva, i couldnt wait to select them!!!

Shiva could have a costume like on SoR 2. And the Story could be that Mr. X kidnapp him and make some android robots with his body and skills. After those incidents, Shiva scape to find his old friend Axl and advice him that Mr.X kidnapped him, but following orders of someone more evil (Mr.X was just a puppet, another android).

Rod could be a Skate pet. And maybe was training beside Skate when the explosion was happening.

So, they could appear after 1st Stage and could be added to the Roster.

Just a suggestion. I would like to see them again.

A recommendation to Adam's specials: Those could be with the legs. For example: the one Axl does with his hands, could be for Adam with his kicks, throwing a left right combo and finishing with a Hurricane Kick like Double Dragon. The other could be a knee star stomp: first he projects a knee to the front, then jumps to outscene and finish stomping with his knees to the floor affecting all enemies in the scenario. And the other going forward 2times and punch could be two special rounded kicks with 5 hit combo.

Just suggestions, hehehehe.

Thanks for this Bor. I am waiting to play it

@ cada: Why don't you start your own mod?
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: mtrain on December 29, 2011, 09:47:50 am
cada1982, thanks for your reply :) The main plot of my mod is already exist and complete, and, i must say, that there is no place for Roo (Rod is mistake?). As for Shiva i have some other plans (he will be a villain, not a friend). As for specials, i cant say that i understand all your suggestion, but all six playable characters with all their moves already completed, and they are all from original series (except adams, and 1 of Max`s piledriver).

Bloodbane, thank you, BB! :)

Sad to hear Shiva is going to be a villain again, i was hoping to see him alongside Axl and Roo.

Well, i would be happy to play it when you completed it. Thanks a lot Zox for this Bor.

The character models are great mtrain. I was wondering what causes the gritty look and it is more pronounced on some characters. Is it just converting a 32bit screenshot into an 8bit? Are the models animated or do you pose it for each screenshot? I was trying to think of a way the output could have a smoother paint-by-numbers look like a mild cell-shading render since all the screenshots have to use the same 8bit palette. Using 3D is defiantly a clever way to make a 2D game by yourself.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: mtrain on December 29, 2011, 05:43:23 pm
becker, Thank you for reply :) here is the same.. i dont understand all from your reply (my bad english) but, why do i need to make fake screenshots? Of course it is actual in game screenshots (besides, as i said earlier all characters are fully complete). If you have some doubts about graphics, you can watch my MASS EFFECT mod screens and video, the quality of my graphic optimization for OpenBor engine.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: becker on December 29, 2011, 07:29:27 pm
I have been following your work since you first announced Mass Effect and it is good stuff. I was more wondering for myself how things are made. When I say screenshot I was referring to the rendered image from the 3d modelling program. I was thinking about how the shadows and shading color gradients could easily exceed the 256 color limit of an 8 bit palette and was wondering how you picked the colors of the palette.

Oh :), that is very simple using the Photoshop. PS let you well optimize the colors of any true color or any palette image to number of colors you need. In MASS EFFECT mod i used 255 colors for every character and level object, but in this SoR:SS mod i use only 64 colors for each character, it is enough. And screenshots prove it) I use colourdepth 16bit for this mod. For example:

so 12 is pretty much enough, but i use 64  :) for sure clean look

Final characters appearance is not actual rendered image from 3D modeling program. I rendered character and get the "raw" image, then i clean and colorize it in PS and convert to gif something like this:

If saved correctly, yes. About 20% smaller on average. Adds up quick. Also, as it is the newer format, you ensure maximum future compatibility.

I just have tried many variants, and can say that with using 256 color palette png file is smaler. If using the color less than 128 gif file is smaller than png.

You are setting something wrong then. The .png format simply has better compression across the board. It's just a better format period. The only advantage .gif still has is animation support, which obviously doesn't matter for OpenBOR. Check to make sure you didn't include metadata, and use the "Save For Web & Devices" dialog. Just clicking "Save As" won't do it.

And there are some png compressing/optimizing tools floating around (png gauntlet for instance).
But I guess the size problem has never been that critical, I'm just curious why some people are still using pcx, perhaps that is some sort of MUGEN or DOS standard?
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP
Post by: cada1982 on December 30, 2011, 09:01:12 am
Well, watching the characters appearance, the stages, enemies, vídeos and stuff, i could say if those .gif images look like that,  the quality is as good as .png.

Post by: Damon Caskey on December 30, 2011, 01:37:36 pm

You misunderstand cada1982, it's not a matter of quality.

Both .gif and 8-bit mode .png  use a loss less compression algorithm. 256 colors max either way, image quality is going to be exactly the same between them. The difference is that .png produces said quality while using less space/memory. It's also a much less outdated format with potential for growth and use of other features in the future.

Lastly, .gif is a proprietary format that however unlikely, has the potential to "re-possessed" by its owners, for lack of a better term. The .png format was specifically created to address and alleviate that issue.

Long and short, there is no reason what so ever to continue using .gif for new modules; .png is better in every way. We've been trying to get this across for almost three years now, it's just been slow to filter to the masses as it were. Despite our best efforts, most modders still don't even know .png is supported.

 The night level makes me think that you should darken the level a bit to show that it is night. Original games don't have lighting effect so everywhere is bright regardless of place.

Hello to all :cheers!:

Finally! I can present you a part of a soundtrack.  :)
First of all i want to say, that i wanted to make music more atmospheric, personal, sensitive. But at the same time using an "old scool" instruments, so let the songs sounds like in 90s. Inspired by SoR1 soundtrack. But in the same time i wanted to make some parts like in SoR2.

Whoooh.. hope you like it! I ask you to not rewind and listen from start to the end, to feel the atmosphere. Make the volume higher and enjoy.

I listened to the OST and it is just great. I imagine every song with sound fx and It is compatible.

But i would like to listen a better boss theme, more badass, cause in a certain moment it loses the boss feeling.  Just an opinion.

Certainly i would like to play it, but mtrain, we must consider the possibility of banning by S...A. You know what they Did with those guys from B.

 Great!
 He's going to slam Garcia instead of tossing him to the water behind right?

 About Elektra's animation, I was asking animation detail. I expect her whip to swing smoothly while being lashed.

 About the soundtracks, I've heard all of them and I can say that all of them have same theme: Dark and serious. IMO this theme is perfect for certain stages but not all stages. Z Syndicate and Horrordrome are perfect assuming where they will be played but Bike mode and park soundtrack sound improper. Park should use fun soundtrack while biker mode one should use adrenaline boost and could be fun soundtrack.

Soon i release a 2nd video of OST, all songs are done. So..... so  ;)

Bloodbane, I understand your proposal. On my part might be wrong, that I presented the soundtrack before the game. But I like that's how it sounds in the game and on each level, I achieved my goal. I think the game will put everything on its place ;)

Glad to hear about that. About your success in professional career and the mod advance as well.

As ARGOROK said, take your time my friend. Enjoy life, is only one we got!!!

Try to learn at the Nuclear Plant all procedures, tips and tricks in order to increase your skills and to make your work very quickly and short.

My wish is that you succeed. You are young i guess. I' m 29 year old. Almost 30 this year, hehehe (getting old, but looking young and still loving Videogames).

Good Luck and Go into Horizon, that's the pathway!!!

 Cool! That's what I love from Axel! (makes me wonder why other heroes don't have similar effect)

 BTW that reminds me of something. I'm sure you know that Axel has advanced moves in Streets of Rage 3 which are acquired (as running attack) by earning certain number of score. Alternatively they can be accessed by special command.
 Do you remade these moves too? or you just stick to Streets of Rage 2?

When i play SoR3 i even dont know that there are special moves was. Even now :blushing: i havent seen them. So the moves is like in SoR2. In any case i can add them later, but if they will need.  ;)

Blaze and Axel looking awesome.  :cheers!:

A good example about BloodBane is saying could be found in SORRV5.

Moving towards twice and you execute a special attack without cost of energy . In that game and Sor3 you earn Stars and is an OK bar that determines the amount of energy could be reduced performing the special ones.

I have that game. Just Tell me what files you need, cause i dont know about editing

Post by: Damon Caskey on February 02, 2012, 10:17:24 am
These look good, except it appears you are mixing particle effects with the main sprite. Those really need to be separated. An HD module like this has no business with opaque special effects drawn right into the entity.

I agree with that if looking on it in static, but in dynamic in game it is not noticed (as for me). Of course the separate particle system is better (i used this system in my MASS EFFECT mod). As i say in any case, i always can re design that special effects after all main work complete.

It is 16bit. Pixel junk is the result of editing of the 3d rendered sprites. As main course was face changing (for more arcade style), there was a lot junks keeps on clothes, some really junk peaces i redraw (it is good that you dont seen them  ;D oooh  :whoosh!:) and little "artefacts" that i kept.

The plot will make you go back there a few years later, after accident and special forces researches, but why ... one mission will tell (now i can say that it will be part of stage 4 of the game) ((so dont think that this is the final of the entire game again ;)))

Well, I agree about the "Shiva" issue...

mtrain will put him as a boss character, but i sense for following story on SOR, Shiva could turn good or the Shivas before were robots...

I know what you mean williamax2008, Shiva is my favorite char in SORRV5...

This game is getting nice, you could add character never playable manga characters from the street of rage as Rudra is Shiva's sister, Irma, and that's Axel Tina.
would be nice to put the two in history.
The
Rudra you already know it is playable in street of rage remake so that it is not Shiva's sister.

Friend, Rudra is a character in the Streets of Rage Remake of Bombergames. If mtrain make the 3D Rudra will surely have a horrible discussion between the creator of Rudra and Mtrain, you want it?

sorry but Rudra is an official figure of streets of rage and is not creating the Bombergames, they just put a character that always should have been in the game but also forgot the baby TINA read the manga "Streets of Rage "

He can make new moves to Rudra, Tina, and sister of Axel in Streets of Rage sleeve of her fight also would be nice to put manga characters in this new game and also was following the story because they are official and not creating fans.

Joe Musashi would be cool also he also appears on the streets of rage.se manga characters have to open the sale to a taste of playing is even more exciting when we have secret heroes in a game I'm glad to know that might put Joe Musashi.
Good luck on your project turned his fan very anxious to play.

mtrain, How are you?

How is everything in your mod?

I loved the Zamza/Souther design and Electra. Good looking and Good design.

Remember that in the Final Stage you challenge again those bosses but with different color. Zamza would look good into a Crimson (dark red) color.

By the way, which other bosses are you planning to make?
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP + OST
Post by: mtrain on February 28, 2012, 04:21:49 pm
williamax2008, i appreciate your advice about Rudra and Tina, but i dont have any plans for them, because i dont know who they are (my bad, but i play SoRRv5 just a little :blushing:, and only for original "six", i dont know that other can be unlocked). Anyways, they dont appears in original trilogy, and as i say my mod will be the story continuation (as for me it is still SoR4), they have a weak chances to appear in this mod (again, only because of my story vision). But, i can say that after all work is done, i have in plans to add new levels, characters, to continue the story (after story  :), something like DLC`s), and it is possible that i add Rudra, Tina, Murphy, Roo, Bruce, even Joe (can you give me link to that comic?)

nedflandeurse Thank you, as always))

JahGood5  :cheers!: To you, and to all: your replies inspires me more))

You have already seen my Jet and Zamza announce. For this moment i cans say that i will present in near time Abadede. Other is secret for now)

The most hard work with this mod is level design. It is not deal of using arcade sprites, but creating new from scratch, and it is sooooooo hard. So this is the only thing that slows me.

 I agree with mtrain about excluding new chars. There's already story here which may not fit those chars.

Quote

 Zamza is hard cause his AI is different than most bosses in SoR series. I just fought him again and I get good idea on how he fights ;).
 You're right that he only smiles on suplex but on better observation, he doesn't wear mask.
 Anyways, it's up to you if you want to remake Zamza with mask.

 BTW I don't think 2nd boss of SoR1 is Zamza. He's waaay too different.

 Now that you mention it, I just realized something that you really need! new enemies and bosses!!
 They are more important than new chars cause support new story. Not to mention we need new thugs to beat ;).

 I hope you have some in plan :)

And perhaps Mtrain can add more characters to unlock.
But this is not the priority I think.

But as for Mona and Lisa.. it is good that you remind me, because i totally forgot about them))) And if i add them into game, they will look more like in SoR1 (and more like SoR1 Blaze, but of course with some changes) (i dont like they appearances in SoR3).

mtrain how are you?

About Mona and Lisa appearance: in SORRV5 you can fight both versions of 'Sasha and Onihine" (i guess is the Japanese name for them).
For SOR1 pathway, you face them in a ship and they look like Sor1-Blaze but in green.
For SOR3 pathway, you face them at the club and it's the dress like a gogo dancer.

I suggest you should make them with a leather jacket and a tight lycra Suit.! They intend to make them that way in SOR3 but couldnt!

Have a nice day and keep the good Job

The twins in the third title of the saga is quite easy to defeat, in SoR1 are hard and like to jump more than Blaze.

I think they should release one in the case of one to three, they are not more fighter women of 'Judo', like Blaze.

my idea was make Yasha and Onihime (this variant i like more than Mona and Lisa)(by the way, in my country (Ukraine) Yasha (Яша) is a male name, not female ))) exactly like in SoR1, in latex outfit, and with the same pose. So hope you will like the result, i think soon i can show you that girls.

Not quite like the RoboCop, more closely resembles the robot because it is not the same as fat is Neo.X has legs and feet like a human (sorry if you felt sad, did not want to do this).  :blushing:

 I prefer the twins to have their own custome instead of Blaze like. I think SEGA didn't give unique one in SOR1 cause they are running out of sprite or memory so they had to use Blaze's.

 Now, it's 2000's, there's no reason to reuse same sprites for different character.

Quote

 Great! I wonder if other robots such as Oxygen and .... those small robots in SoR3 would be here too.
 His movement is like RobotY? I hope this guy is not last boss cause Roboty is pretty pathetic for last boss. Timer is what makes him hard otherwise he's just regular boss (or enemy if you know his weak spot ;) ).

Particle, Molecule.. yeah i planned it long time ago, but i dont know how to make them movement (jumping enemy). But i think i have one solution... I can say that that tipe of robots will be, and will be a lot of other robots, because third SoR started this theme, so there is no reasons to not continue it in my SoR4, it is 2000s as you, and me write earlier, technical progress.

Ou, i want to say, to prevent incorect expectations of that boss. He will be not last)))) it is healthy look at the things)) I create him for one level for one scene (for special story effect). He will move like RobotY and will be weak as him, it is not a hard boss. Demo will show you. I want to release it soon, all materials for it is done.

Looking good yo!!

That cover is awesome!!! Lets see how will it go with gameplay and stuff (i hope Adam could have another attack move; he was the only one who is not updated from SOR1, even for SORR v5.0 got exactly the same attacking combo).

Even though, i am hoping you could add something like a "Store", to buy secret stages and secret selectable chars.

Hope to continue watching Bors from you, and who knows, why dont you try to make a "2.5D Final Fight Silent Storm" mtrain?

maybe grieve you, but i dont want to brake expectations about classic Adam remake, so my Adam is moving like original one, and that was idea about him from the start.

It will be great, but i dont even know how to realise that with OpenBor, but as for characters and stages, i told earlier that i will make DLCs it is easier for me for now.

Hope to continue watching Bors from you

My bad, (i think) but after my SoR mod i dont plan any creations. I will support the SoR, make DLCs, and maybe once i will return to my Mass Effect mod... wich for that time will change the title and it will be not a Mass Effect. As for Final Fight.. i dont play that game serie, because i grown on sega MD, so FF will not been in my plans.

maybe its just me but game feels slow, also when i press attack button the animations dont keep up, sometimes you can hear the punch sound effect and no animation happens. Also double tapping forward sometimes made character run other times not.

Post by: mtrain on March 19, 2012, 01:04:41 pm
He is good, and on the side of the our "SIX"

As of my story, syndicate now hunting him too, because he cant defend MrX, so his mission was failed. No he need to unite with our friends.

I`ll try to make his moves like you, cada, recomended.

What a mean syndicate. Make look to the Russian, Italian and Yakuza mafias in diapers.

I guess for Shiva forward + Special you Could start with the back kick but to front (like Bruce lee's chain kick combo) and then final crash!

As i say, i only got theoric suggestions; dont know anything about programming. Just ideas cause i love martial arts.

Good luck mtrain and keep the good Job

Shiva as a good character? A bad idea.

First is one of the only bosses (after the Mona Lisa & SOR1) which gave 'continuing' saga. I do not see Shiva as a man of russia (Wood Oak City is in japan!) :laughing:

Second, the new look of Shiva does not portray anything from the previous games (he's fatter, and as I recall he did not wear gloves, this size at all). :)

Well, now let's see if these new moves that you created shows the old Shiva back in action. :cheers!:

Well JahGood5,

if you are being hunted by a Syndicate due to failing one mission is a good point to "jump the bench" to the good side.  ;D

I said Syndicate is so so bad that Russian, Italian and Yakuza mafias look like baby boys!!!  ;)

My story i guess was a little bit more interesting; 'cause make possible the fight between Good Shiva against Android Evil Shiva (the one from Sor1, Sor2 and Sor3 series)!!

I guess story planned by mtrain is good! Dont know if this one i propose is better, but his is really really according to the facts and dark story of Silent Storm

Just Suggestions

Android? huh. Oh yeah amigo, these are also my suggestions, if only to get Shiva as a character, mtrain should put as a secret character and place for a new friend for Blaze, five men, two womans, hehe.

Could be nice!!!

Let's see! It's mtrain Mod.

And i always sense Shiva was a robot due to his running like RoboX and Zan in SOR3!!!

Also, as a Martial Art master, he uses some gloves and leg protection (seems to me he used those in SoR 2). Same gloves and protection in red colors you use when fighting Taekwondo!

Blaze friend? Hmmmm... To make a relationship with Adam could be... Like that idea  ;)

So many men and one woman... I see your point

"Martial Art master, he uses some gloves and leg protection (seems to me he used those in SoR 2). Same gloves and protection in red colors you use when fighting Taekwondo!"

If he is a martial arts fighter, why Blaze does not use an all-white outfit and with his red bandana on his head? (Blaze is a karateka/judô girl) (Beta SOR1) Is not it? Alias​​, you've played the first trilogy or just SORRemake?

Do not rely on remakes because Remake contains a different story than the trilogy.

You know... Blaze is a woman!!! She always, as women loves to, be on fashion.

In Sor1 the Bandana, short skirt, wristbands and a jacket... Nice.

In SoR 2 and 3 was more sexy looking with that tiny skirt and just wristbands (that could be necklaces) and "lady shoes".

I guess Men always like to boast on the fact they are good at something.

what i mean is that if i am going to fight evil, i'll go with my best outfit!!!  ;D

Oh yeah, why do you think the Powers Rangers (in the beginning, is just one example) is always defeated before the guys put the uniform? Huh? Do not be thinking that Axel can give a jump in jeans super cool and you can too. Is video game.

Thats why i think he deserve to have a place in the next game.

Quote
Shiva as a good character? A bad idea.
Why not? Give me a try :) Zan was on the bad syndicate side once to , but unite with our friends in third part. Shiva always was a sub-boss and every time i plays SoR3 i dont like the idea of letting players play for him even as secret player. But, in my mod i give him a place between characters because of story, his situation with syndicate, not because he become a friend of "six" (he didnt). And he will become a new longhair friend for Blaze, they will shopping together HA HA HA (joke.... we must be serious)

Quote
possible the fight between Good Shiva against Android Evil Shiva
At first my boss AURUM must been Shiva (in some another suit), and after fight take off his helmet to show us. But then i decide to give him another role.

Quote
get Shiva as a character, mtrain should put as a secret character and place for a new friend for Blaze, five men, two womans

Shiva will be able from start (because now he is a part of a "team"). About another female character a think hardly, because i realy like that idea (and IMO for full roster i think she must be asian).

Quote
Second, the new look of Shiva does not portray anything from the previous games (he's fatter, and as I recall he did not wear gloves, this size at all)

All charaters have new look, so this is new appearance of Shiva. I wanted to get parts of his old style robe and some new elements like boots and fighter gloves with protection. He is under hunt, and he is ready.

Thank you, JahGood5 and cada1982 for your replies! :)

They will be! in demo i show you first 4 levels, when friends "meet" a new enemy, next part of the game they will finding and hunting him, and all next stages (there will be more than original 8, so you can see more) they will meet new enemies. I think soon i can show some of them.

the 1st time SOR fans saw Shiva in SOR 2, they wished to play as him. Why? he is so damn cool! so SEGA make him playable in SOR 3, answering their fan demands.

So, for Silent Storm, do Shiva has to be playable? my answer is HELL YEAH! I want to play as him!

but still, mtrain IS THE BOSS. whatever choices he makes, we have to respect them.

and for making SOR Silent Storm,  :cheers!: for mtrain

Zan did not have a history mtrain in previous games, except that Shiva had, you know?

I do not want to be the black sheep of the forum, just that I expect the game to be creative, you have talent for it!
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP + OST
Post by: cada1982 on March 22, 2012, 09:46:07 am
As anyone knows, Mods are creators ideas.

If he said he'll put a car to drive, we respect the decision. Or if making a new story, we respect it.

As BoR players, we "suggest" designs, make point of views about level design or char looking and so on...

What have happened, for example, if Sega, Technos or another brand, had put some "good" character to the bad side or eliminate it from saga (he/she gets eliminated by evil side)?

What i mean is to accept decisions "behind" PC or forum messages...

mtrain is making a great job. Silent Storm concept is well "felt" during game; and New Boss Mr. Z seems to be a mean lunatic person (Like Batman's Joker).

Loved this idea and want to see more of it!!!

Thats right, i did not say that.  ;) I said " Zan was on the bad syndicate side once to". But here must be my mistake with word syndicate.. Rest i take from SoRonline info:

Dr Zan:

A former RoboCy researcher converted into a cyborg during Dr Dahm's early experiments.
On this i base his work with Dahm (in one of the my mod dialogue)

Dr Zan probes a little too deeply into the corporate files and discovers what the secret research is really for.
On this i base his accessory to syndicate.

He knows the Syndicate must be stopped once and for all, but because of his criminal record he cannot approach the police. So he pays a visit to Blaze's agency and enlists her help.
On this i base his evil past, and uniting with our 5 friends.

I dont know (correct me if i am wrong), but that description taken from SoR3 game manual? or ingame cutscene? :blushing: I want to collect all real game facts and build continuing.

Zan is one of the other characters who did not certainly nothing to do with the story (actually SoR3 is pure nonsense).

When I bought a game for my Genesis / MegaDrive (here in the country where I live, Brazil, a game was only two dollars) there was no manual counting on the history of each one and not the plot, anyway.

mtrain is right.

also, if you want a story that makes more sense, you should play the japanese version of SoR3, Bare Knuckle III, there's an english translation out somewhere.

Most important thing for me, that this story shows Zan`s past accessory to syndicate too, so my thoughts about my storyline is still correct for this moment.

Nothing new but, Donovans skin color correction, that i show earlier:
(he was too whitee)

Do not think you should remove the color version two, because in BKIII (yes I played) Donovan is whiter than Axel.

The Shiva walk is good... How can I say: realistic! smooth, very smooth.

Amazing as always mtrain.

Shiva could have SOR 2 moves, or maybe SOR 3 variated.

As of twins, they look great!

 
What about a second female character, completing the 8 roster? Moves Could be based on Rushing Beat Shura (Syura) Elfin.
Could be a kickboxing girl! (this was JahGood5 idea, about another female char).

Continue the good Job and keep improving and surprising us!

I like that idea JahGood5. Special Could be using that sword right?

Exactly! Their voices can be SoR3 version of Blaze, which I think is a real woman sounds of Chinese/Japanese.

And I think the character that will create mtrain probably have relationships with Adam, something has to happen to bring the two. hehehe

So, maybe Could be a Brown skinned girl. Like Donovan color but a little bit darker (instead i dont know if japanese girls Could have that skin color, like brazilians).

I have some ideas about her and her story. I think it will be interesting. Max and Skate appears in SoR2 without pre-story, only because of one explanation: Max - old friend of Axel, Skate - brother of Adam. So, i think appearing a new female character in SoRSS is a normal thing. I have some sketches of her, but ill show you an ingame sprite in few days. And her name... it must be something special.. not just a regular name...

About sword, my instant NO.

Angelica Fielding, half-sister of Blaze, who worked on Armies of Wood Oak City.

Stopped after the close of Army and the strike of the city, then Angelica decided to learn martial arts.

Combos:

Hannyabasu (Three ice kicks in the air, allows a enemy standing in just 2 seconds, and he loses the move and act like a madman.)

Lynglleronjawashuum(Cobra Shock of Poison lolwut)((It's a stupid idea, it turns into a ice doll and then explodes ,teleports in a concurrent place )

Matthew is a teenager who attends the University of Wood Oak City, it is completely ignored by the people around him, some say it is strange, others say he is a robot.

(In fact it's the first robot created by Dr. Zan with the help of Dahm, he was set to destroy the streets of Oak Wood City (which was a logical request to Mr.X) only after he realized he had enough defects, was removed piece by piece, that after a strange man named Zathur reassembled it and made him look like a teenager, Matthew has an QI of 158.)

I forgot to say this game needs a mp meter like Bare Knuckle 3, if you got running you might as well add it I think it adds something.

I was just thinking about more moves and I forgot to say how cool Adam is because I kinda forgot how he is only really playable in 1 and SORR, and your version of him is pretty cool and different.


Move Suggestions:

Adam:
I'd like it if Adam's down slam throw could do multiple slams, with a grapple and down S. Just a variation on what's already there. (down a grapple is a single slam.)

His running attack ff a, can be maxed out with a S afterwards. During a ff a press s.

With a full bar he could do a charged hyper punch. hold s to charge like galatica phantom with autoguard, (like Ralf in Crime Busters final)

Max

Grabs enemy and then runs with them full autoguard and does multiple spining piledriver slams.

Blaze
Has a dive kick in the air which she can use to bounce off multiple enemies. (like the only Teken OBOR mod)

Skate
Can do the breakdance spin move for longer and angle it towards enemies.

I would suggest playing Volcanic's Bare Knuckle vaccuum V3 for inspiration to some awesome bareknuckle moves.

Shiva is looking good and the Donovan re-color is perfect. I think Shiva needs a palette closer to his SoR2 or SoR3 incarnations. Other than that his animations look great.

I'm interested in seeing how your female char turns out.

Post by: mtrain on April 06, 2012, 07:33:08 pm
Hey guys) Here is the first (second) look at new female character.

First of all the outfit. I know.. it is wery simple, but i want to make her look like fast fighter, (some between skate and axel). I try many variants of outfit but this as for me fits her better (sandals for leg fight, light modern girl pants, short (but still attractive) haircut..)

Second is the name. Look at the names we have: Stone, Thunder, Hunter, Blaze... So name must be in same region. So, i decide to choose Lita Air, because i like the name Lita for fighter girl:blushing: and surname Air for better pronounce. (variants i look at: Gina Air, Lita Light).

Lita is using the freestyle combat, use of leg kicks and jump attacks. About her past and relative to our friends i tell later.

p.s.
Spoiler
when i have uploaded this i remembered the Mary from kof ;D and they looks similar. but that was not a plan, i swear

What do you think? Give some advices for my drunk-like-a-skunk head :cheers!:

Good job on lita.
I can't wait to see her in action.

About her design:
-I love the head (cool blue short hair)
-The top is good too, (giving her good possibilities for color swap)
-The lower part is kind of...( :laughing:80'...) As a kicker, she would have stronger legs, and perhaps some shorts or something. Why not giving her better shoes for fighting?

Just my advice. I hope it can help you to make her even better. :)

oh yeah, which hair colour will she have, black or blue? both looks good!

lita air? sound too simple...
here is my suggestion
-Lita Breeze ?
-Lita Zephyr ?

both are related to air, and sound more complex   :)

I love the head (cool blue

I change color from black and make short hair  because of Blaze.

One of the variants of hair was this

Your right, so here is my final version of Lita Breeze

I changed her shirt with bra for more interesting variant, and add lines on her pants to make accent on her hips.

But i have problem with color set... :oops: Look guys what is better?

Why it is a problem? Look: Axel (Blue, Red, Yellow), Blaze (Red, Black), Adam (Yellow, Black, Grey), Skate (White, red), Zan (Blue, Grey), Shiva (Blue, Red)... So... Where is purple and green? So i show you Litas outfit in purple.

Good update.
I'm glad you understand my request!
She is more like a kicker now! :)

Also I'm OK with the idea of giving her purple outfit. The pink-red hair is good too!
Orange version is good (as alternate color?)

Good luck with Lita breeze  ;)

Post by: Bloodbane on April 08, 2012, 01:07:23 am
 So here's our new gal! great!

 As for color, red hair is fine but I prefer pink hair to match with her purple outfit.
 For her sleeves, it shouldn't be black IMO. My suggestion is:
 Red Hair, Dark Blue sleeves, Purple outfit
 or
 Pink Hair, Dark Red sleeves, Purple outfit

 I choose dark to balance with bright purple. If you changed the purple to darker one, the sleeve should be brighter.

Lita is using the freestyle combat, use of leg kicks and jump attacks.

 Hmmm... she should have leg throw too.

Final suit colors will be purple, with dark blue sleeves and red hair.

But the face still dont attracts me. And i make some another angle, and eyes (and face at all). Look, what do you think? A new one is better?

2nd angle looks like she's looking at the player rather than the enemy lol. They both look really good, but I think the 1st one is more realistic.

I have same opinion as you badjab. Like V1 cause looks at the enemy.

Post by: Bloodbane on April 09, 2012, 12:15:59 am
 Hmmmm.... V1 is facing enemy but her body is facing camera making it look odd. V2 is facing us but more realistic.

 I'd say rotate her body a bit so it slightly faces enemy too.

V1 is better. And as BloodBane said, maybe rotate a little bit her body. Like about 30 degrees (putting the axes in her belly button - if she has one -).

Looking great. I hope to see a Demo version 1.2 soon...

I will look what i can make. I`ll try to find a compromise version. But.. it is bad that i cant show you her in action and cant record a video, but she move naturally and her "rotated body" is not a problem :) (but of course it is from my point, because you havent seen her yet in action  :blushing:)

Now i have not enough time to concentrate on this mod, but i try for it, because i really want to complete this mod.

At this moment a work on levels redrawing (partly), adding some elements to make them look not so flat and "corridor-ed". And i work on adding ambience sounds to the all levels, so now the atmosphere of each feels better. I still have done Lita for only ~ 50%. I remade all animation delays (for attacks and grapplings), and attack boxes, so now hitting enemies is easier and make farther dropv`s.

Hope to show you some updates soon. (:nervous:)

Great progress, we have similar ideas in our SOR mods. Love the new female character, you mentioned her being a kicker so does that mean she uses tai kwon do? Like the Shiva, he's been my favorite SOR character since his first debut and you've really brought his out but he's a ninja so shouldn't he be faster than 2 stars? Like I said, I like what you've done so far, seems like your as busy as I am but I think I speak for everyone when I say this but keep up the good work and don't give up please :cheers!:

Post by: Bloodbane on May 07, 2012, 01:43:56 am
 Looking great! I love it when you brought back Shiva's powerful kick i.e upperkick and flaming kick.

 Lita's piledriver looks good although doesn't seem fit her. If she's leg oriented, she should use her legs to slam instead.

 And this is obviously ripoff but what do you think if Lita can perform Hurricane Kick like Ryu or Ken?
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP + OST
Post by: cada1982 on May 08, 2012, 12:02:45 am
Shiva and Lita are going to be my fav characters so far!!  ;)

BloodBane is right, why a Pile Driver for Lita? But thinking right, what throw move can she perform with her legs?

Maybe some throw that looks like Black Widow (Iron Man 2, Avengers) when she grabs the guy on the neck and then perform a throw (dont know how to call it, maybe Scissor throw or somehow).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS1JFa_EjmI (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS1JFa_EjmI) For a sample, like about 0:43 she performs a leg throwing technique (The hot, beautiful Scarlett Johansson). Also in 1:10 is another leg throw.

Maybe is hard to make them into digital way...  ;D

If you ask me enemies should have more moves and attacks

Yes you right with this. At this moment i already make for each enemy a one additional attack move. I plan to add another one, so you can see an old enemies from some new side.

Quote
Lita's piledriver
Hm.. yeah you right, maybe this is a bad idea, but ingame it looks better and smoother than in video. But i`ll think how i can change it for another move.

Quote
hurricarana
Yeah that is right. BUT i have already thinking about that move (it was one of the first moves i plan Lita will have) BUT, this move needs alot of frames, so i can miss with the game stylistic.

o_O oh my bad i forget to add Litas throw move. I can say that it is like Blaze`s but with 2 legs, instead of Blaze`s judo throw with 1 leg... But i think you dont liked this move, so..

Lita is definitly the character who uses leg throws!

Yeah, you all guys right. So today i redraw Lita`s throw for legthrow (with legs headholding). And it looks great for her.  :)

mtrain I finally played your demo, this MOD has the most beautiful backgrounds I have seen, I like the different layers, it looks really nice when the stage scrolls. Overall, it was great, I know it was a demo but it feels almost like a finished product, I was not expecting a DEMO to have so many levels. I still can't get over the graphics, you really put a lot of effort into it, it definitely shows. About the gameplay, well, some people might not like this but, I was never the biggest Streets of Rage fan, the main reason is I always has a nintendo system, but I did play the game before, and Silent Storm feels a lot like the original Streets of Rage. Honestly, you're the man DUDE! Keep it up!
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP + OST
Post by: inqualls on May 10, 2012, 09:46:29 am
Hey mtrain :) First off, I want to thank you for working on this game. I love the original series and you are staying true to the feel and look of it. I played the demo about 8 times now and have played through with each character at least once if not twice. This game is extremely impressive. When I first saw videos of it on youtube I couldn't believe it was actually a real playable game.  I'm very happy to see that you are still continuing to make progress with it. I wish I was talented enough to create something like this. I've always had some great ideas for the series like a prequel I'm been sketching enemies for here and there.

Anyway, I'm going to list off a few things just as input about the game so far. I know this is just a demo to show off the work you've put into this game so far so some of my suggestions will seem a little obvious. For starters, you should begin to think about enemy placement like crouching thugs or have them leaning on a wall or falling from above to attack or flank the player, like in the original games. Also, implementing breakable objects would mix up the action a bit and give players and enemies things to interact with. Again, this may seem obvious. Also, I feel that Electra's whip attack should only stun the character not knock them down. That way when she swings her whip upward it hits the player a second time just like in Streets of Rage 3. I noticed you have been working on a new playable female character Lita. She is turning out great. Consider adding a new female enemy as well like Ruby from SOR 3 just for more variety, Maybe even a female boss. Overall, I love what you are doing and these are simply things to think about which you probably have already. Thanks again for taking time out of your busy life to give everyone an amazing new installment of a beat'em up classic :cheers!:

It was the first goal i want to achieve, and i am really happy if i did)) It is still a ton of work, but i try to take a time for it, because every day a new ideas come  :)

inqualls, great thanks to you! :cheers!:

It is a big pleasure to receive such comments from a SoR fan! I really want to complete this game, and to tell a story after SoR3.  :)

Yeah i missed them in a demo but not in a final version.

It can be interesting as additional attack. Lets see what i can do.

They are already present, and you will see them, and a female boss to. One of them a have show earlier.

Post by: mtrain on May 12, 2012, 12:22:15 pm
Thank you, BB. Yeah, now i am adding some details, breakable obstacles and ambient sounds.

Second thing is i remade Axel`s regular chain attacks. So now his attack chain looks like Rock`s in Rocket Viper. So i make his second attack more deep and make a turn kick instead of 2 leg kicks like in original series.

here are 2 frames from animation

Lita is a dancer/performer, she uses legs for fighting, right?

So...why mtrain doesn't watch Capoeira videos and make the Lita moves like a Capoeira style?

I am adding at least 3 different obstacles designs for everly level, to make it more detail and allow interact with them not only for items looting. You can throw enemies on it, enemy can hit obstacles, so i think it will make gameplay more dynamic :blushing:

Not new, this is a same Signals, they take out they knifes and chains from jacket before attack.

Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm WIP + OST
Post by: inqualls on May 18, 2012, 11:04:21 am
I don't think usable weapons are neccessary if enemies already have weapon specific attacks. The Blaze redesign sounds great. Sor1 is definitely a classic route for Blaze. Have a good weekend and hope to see some of your new work in this next video.

Your Blaze looks alot better but I'd suggest ditching the head band to kind of mix all of her looks in 1. It's good for an alternate costume but if this is a sequel, you might wanna stray away from previous looks for all characters. Just my opinion.

Yeah! Love the V3 haircut. better than V2    :cheers!:

mtrain, can you make a sample of blaze wearing black stocking like your older blaze alt pallete? wanna see if it is good or not.

is it me or blaze right thigh looks a little bit big

Don't change anything!
Finally some good looking Blaze with her trademark skirt, but not a sl*t!
Ilike your V3 haircut, good color too, and the headband from SOR1 is great!
Not to mention she looks like more a FIGHTER and not a skinny model here! ;D
Very nice. I'm glad to see this update ;)

BTW: will you give to your game some different throws from the "back grab stance".
In your demo, the moves normal grab and back grab was the same...
Blaze can have some judo holds (arm lock, ground strangle...)
Max can have some new wrestling moves too

All i can say for now about grab move is that i`ll add 1 additional grab move to all characters, because of up+attack combination will free after i make grab jump on jump button (DC helps me). Will see what will coming)

But if you can apply color separation for the legs as a costume/color swap on select screen, it may be cool!

Yeah hairband will be able with one of the alternate outfit, and her hair will be as long as i showed in her V3. Short hair version is only probe makeup) ;)

That's too bad. I hope you have a 'key' and can get out of this mess, right? You are editing stages you have made or are making more stages for the mod?

And you can tell the percentage of the things you already finished? I think it is 47% or 58%. And how goes the new job, tiring? :)

 What problem do you have?
 Your demo of this mod has good enemy spawns, there are no walk,wait,wipe spots at all just like in original game.

 My suggestion is try spawning same enemies at once. For instance, 3-4 Galsias at once, 3 signals or 2 Elektras, one from left and other from right.

Yes. The only thing i need is time. Because now i cant just sit and concentrate on drawing  :)

Quote

As i say earlier, i am editing stages that you already saw and make new levels. Now i am making Luna Park level and it is sooo hard to make it looks like real luna park and playable stage without false at the same time.

Quote
And you can tell the percentage of the things you already finished?

Demo was ~40% of the game at that time, but in case of editing all stuff and demos too, real percentage at this moment is maybe ~35%. Because i am adding now more new things.

Quote
how goes the new job, tiring?

Very well, thank you) Tiring? Yes) :)

Quote

Exactly, i miss this thing in demo, and now i making different spawns for enemies. Far different than in original games, but that type of spawns that was in origianl games will be.

Thank you, BB, i will try to experiment with that.

I've played your SORSS demo a bunch of times now and got inspired to create some tracks. If you like any of them let me know and I will gladly find a website to upload them for you ;)

it is hard to say.. take in attention that fact that i redraw all existing levels with new perspective correction, making more new enemies, redraw some elements of 8 players, making new levels (i have already only 5)... maybe 30 - 35 %. BUT. when i was away from my PC and modding, i write all things to do and all plan of the game, so it is will be more easy and quick to work because i have a check-list ;)

 I have idea on how to do this but haven't tried it myself. This is called coop attack and requires script.

what about Garcia SOR1

 You know, if you are going to make them, I highly suggest making them different than regular Garcias. The former are deadly.

the robots Molecule SOR2

mark1 robot will be, Molecule SOR2 is present (you have seen him in level 4-2). There will be another robots. Garsia from SoR1? i dont planned him because i already have a Galsia enemy. What is the difference between them?

give us a roster of your enemies

it is a secret, he he )) Some of them you will see on screens i`ll show in the work process ;)

Only thing i can say is that i haw saw a video of this mod demo gameplay on wii, so i think it is compatible:

Those that was in demo - no, because they must be the same as in sor 2, and mark 1 will be the same, but another new robots will be different, a new ones from scratch.

In my story our heroes have need to return to a syndicates base that was in SoR3 (you see it in the demo). But there will be another one place from SoR2 that you will return to.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: ARGOROK on September 30, 2012, 12:21:33 pm
I think the difference between garcia SOR1 and galsia SOR2 is of course appearance, and the fact that Garcia uses bats and knives as weapons, galsia just uses knives, and garcia can perform a combo attack of 3 hits, galsia just hit with one kind of punch attack. Thanks in advance for your response mtrain, I´m waiting for this one, I have been very patient, because I know it will worth it.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: JahGood5 on October 01, 2012, 05:52:25 pm
Well, Streets of Rage always changed. Garcia is Galsia, Nora is Electra and Hakuyo is Haku-Yo. Both have the same things in the 1, 2 and 3. Nora/Electra have a whip, Hakuyo/Haku-Yo is a ninja and Garcia/Galsia is the same bad punk in every stage, with a bat or a pipe like 1, 2 and 3. In every game Sega changed their styles to be a 'Final Fight friendly', to sell much more than the first game, you can see the changes, big stages and a clean soundtrack by Yuzo-san. Both are the same enemies, but with a minor changes. But, about the Silent storm version, i think is good if you mix the moves for the enemies, all moves for Galsia, all moves for Haku-Yo and all moves for Electra, or, you make Haku, Nora, Galsia (SOR2) for the game, like Bomberlink did for SorRv5.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: Bloodbane on October 01, 2012, 11:58:07 pm
 I think the reason Garcias were able to wield many weapons was simply because there are no other thugs yet. Starting from Streets of Rage 2, there's Donovan which can wield bat and pipes , Jack which can wield knives and ninjas which can wield swords. Because of this, Garcia's ability is reduced to lowest thug.

 On 2nd thought, it is better to make totally new enemy than remaking SoR1 Garcia.
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: Alphaman on October 02, 2012, 03:07:02 am
Well since I couldn't find information about the ending(s)... Which makes sense.

I was hoping that we would be able to go down an "evil route" somewhere in the middle or late part of the game and have multiple evil endings in this rather than just bad ones (if there are any).  :cheers!:

An example is a character choosing to help the new "big bad" near the later stages of the game when given the option through a little plot twist somewhere along the line; unraveling alternate missions.

I loved the cool evil ending in SoR1 and wished that something similar to that was available in 2 and 3 although it didn't happen.

Little note I don't know if it was just me but did anyone else think of Blaze actually being Mr. X's right hand woman a cool idea?? I always liked the whole protagonist good girl gone bad concept which is rare in these types of games especially.  :)

 I must have missed that since Mr.X dumped me below.

 IMO having option of evil path in latter stages is really bad idea. Simply because, player has been fed with evil baddies from the start and it's less likely player are willing to switch side.
 Moreover, what's the point in doing so anyways?

 The best way to have evil path option is to have twisted story & conflicts from the beginning in which it's hard to tell which side is right or wrong. In this situation, players might have different opinion and thus choose different paths.

 However, this mod already has its story set so I doubt it's going to be changed :).

Hi, Alphaman ;) It is great that you like my work on SoRSS. I read all what you write, and i think your ideas are great, i also planned to add an evil ending. But, i still positioning my SoR game as SoR 4, like i called it from the first post in this thread. Next after SoR3, because of story that i want to tell, about what happened after last fight. And evil ending is excess here as for me, because i have an ideas about SoR5. But i still hold it in attention  ;)

For Galsias and Garcias i have some plans, i show later.

My MASS EFFECT mod demo developing puts a high plank for me for a visual and gameplay quality of the next mods. Im happy that you all guys like SoRSS mod so far, but in other forums almost all said, that it is looks like $#!+, so i guess they right. :dunce: Now i`m trying to improve grafics, and make character sprites looks more "arcade", and improve game physics. So if i can reach that i`ll show you, if not, i will work with all i have for now.

It´s about likes or dislikes if in other forums said everything they said, anyway here is lavalit and you have the likes from all of us, so don´t worry mtrain, personally I think that your work is excellent, and it is a great idea to make this MOD as arcade despite the 3D rendered graphics (I aplologize if I´m using the term rendered inappropriately), in my opinion I like more arcade old games than current games with the best graphics in 3D and all that stuff, also, it´s a great idea if you are planning to remake garcia and galsia, would be great if they or just he (if it is the case) have or has new attacks. Keep going mtrain and don´t underestimate your work, your are very capable to do this and better other things.  ;)

Yes mtrain,

As ARGOROK said, your work is great. I love old-style 2d Beat'em Ups, but this is between 2D and 3D.

As you said once, is like a 2.5D graphics!

Maybe the new generation is so overexcited about 3D graphics.

I must say they should play those "oldies" games. With an emulator.

Games such as: Double Dragon Saga, Streets of Rage saga, Rushing Beat, Final Fight, Taekwondo (i played that yesterday again, awesome game), Undercover Cops, Sonic BlastMan 2 and so on.

Maybe they could find entertaining those old games even more than recent ones!

And you mtrain, dont hesitate about your job! It is going in the right way!

Yep what they said are absolutely true. Remember mtrain there will be those who don't like something and hate it just because they want to or can't respect creative and wonderful work. I bet that some didn't even try SoR.

It is the people that offer constructive criticism that you want to listen to. Also, remember that many of us love your style anyway and are eager to see you complete your great project.  :)

What makes me extremely happy is that you are considering evil endings later on somewhere along the line. Maybe not very soon, but later on. THIS was what I wanted and couldn't find in any other mod really.

Keep your style, continue to improve as needed, and know that you've got a lot of people supporting you.

Someday... Evil right hand henchwoman Blaze (or boss Blaze) muahahahahahaha!!  :)

Not only Axel, and not mostly only dagger. To be fare for now i plan to add only a bat and dagger (instead of knife in SoR games). And all of 8 characters can use it, when they pick it up or beat from the enemy.

Post by: StupidSnake on October 09, 2012, 05:09:06 am
Hi , Mtrain! I see, Shiva is a major discussion subject, and I have questions of my own to ask you:

-Will he get a darker grey/red alternate outfit?

-As you seem to be a big fan of SoRR, will you give him the"hadoken"like move(hot palms only,no fireball I mean) he uses in v5, along with SoR3 Star Skill and power-gauge features?

My point is, every SoR episode carries its load of improvements, not only in character design, which is outstanding here, but also in terms of gameplay.

That's the reason why it would be great if Silent Storm player characters had their complet moveset, just like SoRR, including bonus moves and the famed star moves from SoR3.(regarding this, Shiva was given a double somersault Final Crash in SoRR)
Moreover I think hardcore fans and Bombergames' team would see it as an homage to both the original trilogy and its excellent remake.

-I also noticed interest from forum users regarding his possible conversion to good character, so I think it would be great to create an alternate storyline upon unlocking him.For example, he could have been an undercover agent all along or on a quest for vengeance against the syndicate, or even both...

Well, that's my point of view as a fan of SoR.

Otherwise, your mod is awesome!!!I gave your demo a try and it's highly promising!!!

Keep it up!  :plasma_sword_dark: May the Force...M'kay??? :)

PS: Here's a sample of how Shiva moves in SoRRv5, you'll see him perform his"Fire Palm"in the first half and his"double Final Crash" several times in the second half of the video.It would justify further his new boots and gloves, wouldn't it?

i leave a weapon developing for a time, now i cleaning and finalising characters. To make all weapons its unique stance, takes a huge amount of time, maybe months. So weapons is a weak side of my project for now.

StupidSnake, thank you for reply, i have some similar ideas but dont know how to realise them.  ;)

Quote

Yes he will  ;)

Quote

Already have ;)

For now i changed some grabs and correct existed, change grabdistance like in original sor (so character holding enemy on head, instead of torso (like in demo)), change the speed of attacks and movement, to make it more SoR like. I have add shading on the characters legs that are far from us like in original sor, to make movement more smooth and more easy catchable. Clean the sprites, make an alternative costumes to all (4 for each player). Today have almost complete jetski and bike levels. Some story changes, i think you will be surprised.

 :laughing: So many people are giving great storylines about Shiva becoming good mtrain

I tell those who dont approve this: If Vegeta turns good in some part of Dragon Ball Z and GT, why not Shiva?  ;)

Great to hear Shiva got his "non-fireball punch" as a special. Also, Lita is looking great, maybe she is going to conquer Adam  ;)

Talking seriously, everything mtrain show us, impact us in such a way too special, because it's an unique game with great graphics. It still needs some gameplay improvements, but lets keep in mind that mtrain is not that videogame company with lot of staff which created that trilogy, just him and his brother for the songs.

And that's admirable!!! Keep the good job!
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: StupidSnake on October 11, 2012, 11:41:35 am
Wowwwww!!!! GREAT NEWS, MTRAIN!!!I also noticed in the video demo that Shiva was running, which he doesn't do in the original trilogy and remake.In the aforementioned games, he"hovers"instead of running.Of course, his running ability makes him kinda more human and as such, is not a bad idea at all, but it also makes him lose his ruthless, aggressive attitude.Besides, a hover-running Shiva takes much less time to animate! :)

Anyway, I still like his overall appearance, but in my opinion, this little detail needs to be explained further.

As for the other characters, they remain faithful to the original ones and it's fine this way!

By the way, what musical genre do you intend to use ?
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm

So do not forget to share the awesome soundtrack from this amazing and long awaited game mtarin, glad to know about news I have to congratulate you for all this awesome stuff, as I have been saying before, can´t wait for it´s release, IMO I don´t care about weapons, at the end the game is very cool with or without weapons :cheers!:

Speaking of SoR-style Power gauges, I suggest you borrow them from the GI JOE Assault on Cobra Island ammo system, which works in a similar way, although it's slower in GI JOE. I guess it won't be the same HUD as SoR3, but hey, it doesn't matter, since Silent Storm is more evolved.

As for the timer, Since SoR3, it wasn't used again, except in Remake where it could be enabled or disabled at will.

My sweet Lita ;D

I don't liked very much the Axels Knife Pose, he is like 'I WANT REVENGE!!! I WILL KILL YOU NOW!!! (don't call police pls pls)'

About Star skill, imo is better if mtrain create a Mortal Kombat Trilogy Aggressor bar-like.

...and again about Shiva's Good x Bad, just make a good history mtrain, its your game. :cheers!:

Well, I just want to know: You finished the spritesheet of Onihime/Yasha?

btw, on Lita's alternate you could variate a little bit more the colours, for example mixing the 1st Lita with the 2nd: putting on the upper part red white and black, and using the blue pants, as I noticed her outfit have 2 colours, 3 with the white.

agreed with Argorok... the OST!!!!
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: StupidSnake on October 12, 2012, 07:55:05 am
I must admit I agree with JahGood's idea of the aggressor-bar-like system.
It could trigger a "berserk"state in which the character would unleash the previously mentioned Star Moves for a limited amount of time, thereby bringing balance between the player's power and the game's difficulty.

Side-effects:-you can access more powerful moves from the beginning, instead of having to wait for your character to level up.
                   -it remains true to the original franchise, while being innovative.

BUT...what about the life-consuming techniques?Will they require a separate(SoR style) power-gauge?

Yes, I think mtrain use the SoR3 power gauge because in the demo, the power defense/attack are based in SoR2 style
Title: Re: Streets of Rage: Silent Storm
Post by: StupidSnake on October 12, 2012, 01:50:17 pm
Thanks , JahGood!
As a hardcore fan of SoR, eventhough I enjoyed many mods and spin-offs revolving around Wood Oak City battles(SoR fans will understand lol), I find it essential no to diverge from the essence of the original trilogy. Bomberlink and friends understood this and even did better than the original creators themselves, with SoRR v5, which makes this fangame THE reference, in my opinion at least.

That's why I heavily support Mtrain's project, since I think he can channel what makes the SoR universe in a brand new, more advanced, yet recognizable way and eventually create a game on par with the now legendary SoRR.

I won't say it enough, GREAT JOB MTRAIN!

If Vegeta turns good ..... why not Shiva

As i write earlier in one post, Shiva not becomes good, but unites with our friends to force the syndicates main boss, because he cant defend mr.X (that was his mission from main boss), so syndicate haunting him because after X`s death Shiva run away. Alone he will die, with other they can try to resist the enemy.

just him and his brother for the songs.

My brother?  :oops:

Quote
in the video demo that Shiva was running, which he doesn't do in the original trilogy and remake

Yeah, in the original 3 sega makes him not run but quickly player reachible move, and i think bomberman leaves that move instead running because of not new sprites drawing (but why, when they draw a tons of another new sprites :eek:). Shiva is still "human" so i want make his run animation like normal running.

Quote
Anyway, I still like his overall appearance, but in my opinion, this little detail needs to be explained further.

you will know about his new arms and legs appearance.

Intend? As you know from the demo i am already using a new music, rhythmic, dance-like, atmospheric, as for me and as i try to make.

Of course, ARGOROK  ;)

Quote
game is very cool

with or without weapons

This is still under question :nervous:

Quote
Star Skill and power-gauge features

To be fare, i think to make a standart OpenBOR energy system. You will have an energy bar, and some special attacks to perform only when you have a full bar (like non cost full bar attacks in SoR3). I know that this is a lazy trick, but for me is fully understandable to modding.

Quote
As for the timer

oh, i just leave it for the sterling classic SoR interface  :) I think no one ever bother for that timer )) So little thing but nice. (but maybe soon it will be replaced with energy bars))

Quote
I don't liked very much the Axels Knife Pose

As i say that was made because of time lack, weapons are still under question (but i still have a one interesting idea)

Yesh! I love the update.

Well, i think to call Silent Storm a REAL SOR fangame using OpenBOR engine, Rage of the Streets too (the first SOR's BOR mod)... Because some others is just a copy for me. Seriously, a Bare Knuckle 5? Reminds me NES pirates... Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Country 4 for NES! Wow! (And both are same).

Indeed my need for explanation was about his running animation, which you answered.
As for his new suit, no complaints whatsoever, it's greater than his previous garments, makes him look like an efficient killer.

He would make a fine anti-hero on a quest for redemption, the kind that goes away in the sunset without a word when his mission is finished.

I write about it in some early post. As i said you come back with our friends to the factory from SoR3 (you can see it in the demo), and you will return to one place from SoR2 this will be a surprise, because the way you get there will be across the root from the other side, so i hope those who play SoR2 will recognize it from the start.

Galsias wouldn´t be so easy to kill

Each enemy will have a one additional attack (or move) as his rank grows (i mean blue galsia is 1st rank, green is 2nd, and so on..) So with this, some enemies will get a combos closer to the hi ranks.

In plans, yes.

SoR3 male thugs be part of them?

There will be no SoR3 Tiger and SoR2 asian fighter, as they are similar, i replace them both on one new enemy from the Z special force. Just several old enemies will be replaced by new "analogs".

Quote
Joe Musashi

i cant comment it yet

Quote
Blaze: Can we get the option to choose her hairstyle??

Actually no, because we cant do it in borders of one character model. To make it possible we need to take Blaze sprites and replace all hairstyle for the new ones, so we get new models. Of course we can make possible to select them all from the select screen, but.. just for only a Blaze, i dont think this is a good move. ;)

My girl said it would be better if Aurum quit spinning around since he's an upgraded(and thereby sturdier and more stable)version of Neo.X.She had a question about the number of buttons that'll be usable in the final version(She's a big fan of SoR3, which can be played with a six-button pad)

By the way, will Mr.Z be a martial artist or a machine-gun totting boss a la Mr.X?Or will he be something very different?(of course you can keep this character secret till the game's release.)

Also, do you intend to create detailed sceneries, with more destructible elements, walls, pitfalls and Sor2-style diagonal scrollings, along with cutscenes between stages?

Make some cameos of characters from Sega games would be great
Alien Storm is also from the arcade system that made Golden Axe, Shinobi and Altered Beast.

 Well, if you do want to add cameos, one way to do it is by huge poster on walls. Or you can have mannequins ;).

 Alternatively, you can add the van from Alien Storm in background.

 IMO it's not that important.

You will get Electra with less clothes, some of her alternative outfits is like that (similar like in demo). I wanted to make her look more clean, detailed hair, whip, and little bit another stance.

Can I ask something.
Do you have increased the number of animation frames for the heroes (mostly)
Because, when a game hav a remake with better graphics but the same number of frames, sometimes it feels weird (Super street fighter HD remix), I can't rememember if your game have more frames or not.

It's only a detail...

My bad, but no, because at this moment it is practically impossible for me (the trouble in the 3d program i am using). But i must say that i retouching all frames, and now they looking smoothly because of offset and, mostly, character foots positioning. It is hard to explain, now when someone attacks or walking their toes and feets dont "jumping". So this makes animation more "stable" or something like that (like an arcade ones) (in the demo i hadnt make that, so a huge ammount of my time takes all entities retouching)

And here is the Jet retouching, nothing special, but now he will look more accurate + he have some new moves.

And it would be good the heroes have footsteps sound when walking and running or maybe just running .
Your mod is superb, Playing the demo i was so excited about when we all have the full will be great.

This Blaze is just nearly perfect.
I would give her a less orange skin and perhaps the grey part can be darker.
But, I freaking love this new Blaze model!

About the new moves, can you be more specific.
These new moves will complete the existing moveset or replace it?
What kind of fighting system it will include? multiple throws, super moves??

I can't even comment on this mod anymore...except for Lita's color scheme perhaps.Wouldn't she look better with colors reminiscent of Mace Daniels(the girl from Fighting Force,which was originally intended to be SoR4,just before Core Design turned it into their own franchise,and featured some kind of "Z-Syndicate"led by Dr.Zeng,whom I hope will serve as a basis for a badass final boss)?And will there be new, faster music and pace?

Well these are just suggestions, huh?Otherwise this upcoming mod is gonna blast it all!!!AWESOME!!!
