Fire Emblem's Lucina PSA - WELCOMING AID!

[JamietheAuraUser]

The thing about Lucina's Astra in Awakening is that she doesn't actually move forward at all after the first hit. Lucina as a Lord has enough different attack animations that every hit of Astra is actually unique, and there aren't any mid-combo backsteps like there are for most other classes.

It starts with her quick lunging stab (the initial attack she does when it isn't a killing blow), then follows with a horizontal slash from the left, then one from the right, then finally a vertical slash from bottom left, and ending with her finisher stab.

That said, I had an idea for her Final Smash: Astral Aether. Lucina performs Astra, with the last hit forcing the target back, then intercepts with Aether before they can escape.
Damage spread: 6%, 6%, 6%, 6%, 6%, 12% (heals Lucina 6%), 18%. Total damage: 60%

Regardless of whether you use this or your previous planned FS, her FinalDash should have her sword pointed forward, as she's about to stab whoever she runs in to.

Well I'm using Brawl Box. I still have the original file that was used with smash attacks, if you want to use that one. But it doesn't have any of the new additions in it.

Naw it's good, I haven't touched smash in so long.


I made her move. I will send you the file.

You may need to add an end animation to the SpecialS2Hi, a seperate subaction, because She slides like made while transitioning to her wait1. Or put a disallow horizontal movement on the second to last frame.

Thanks man. And I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for the info. That's not a bad idea, but it'll definitely take longer to animate that one as opposed to mine. But I'll think about it. I'll change up her FinalDash as well.

[PallaPal]

Thanks! It was only a small modification, but it's better than a still charging animation. At least to me.

He's trying to make the first strike a place holder of sorts to move into I think 3 different attacks. SpecialS2Lw is Astra I'm assuming from what he stated in the OP, and from the animation that's given. And I think SpecialS2Hi is supposed to be Aether. That's what it kinda looks like anyway.

Definitely a good animation for the Neutral Special anyway

And yeah, you're right about what I intended those to be! That Astra is is more Path of Radiance-based as opposed to an Awakening-based one. Then Aether, yeah that's what it is, but the animation needs work, lol.

The third attack may be more of a Pseudo-counter (Pavise/Aegis) and I want to make it SpecialS2Lw whereas Astra should be a new SpecialS2Mid. I'm not sure how to go about making that one though. The "Pavise/Aegis" move can just reflect a fixed 10 damage or like half of the damage dealt to her, and it should probably have super armor frames so she doesn't go flying too. Not a perfect adaptation of the skill in here, but I think it would be okay for it to work this way.

Also, no worries about ever needing to use the old version to edit with PSA. I too figured out how to use it with BrawlBox now, and it is a WHOLE NEW THING. So much easier to use! I have seen the light... xp

[Nao-chan]

Welcome brother to the ways of BrawlBox. I hope you enjoy your stay. Haha. Anyway. I just finished the Neutral Charge for the Aerial version as well. Now it'll flow better between air and landing mid charge. Also tweaked the ground version a little more to show that she's really building up some power. I basically just made her move a bit more around her Waist/Bust area.

EDIT: Here's the new Ground version:

This Is the Air version:

[GoMB-BallGamer4774]

Nice job! Those are looking great!

[Nao-chan]

Thanks I also remade the Win1Wait animation. But I'm having a hard time trying to clean up the Win1 itself to go with the new one I made.

This is the old one:

This is what I made:

Oh and to those of you like Revenant Genesis that think the cape blowing when no one elses is when they're around is weird. It really doesn't move as much in game as compared to the animation. So it wont look that dramatic.

[PallaPal]

That is once again awesome. "Everything is Awesome!"
... Sorry, just watched The Lego Movie xp.

In all seriousness though, you have your ways of making Lucina look super awesome in her poses

[Nao-chan]

It was just a more realistic revision of what you supplied to me. But thank you all the same. Maybe Revenant can get it to transition from Win1 better than I can. But honestly I don't want to put too much on his shoulders, so I'll try and fix it myself if I can.

Also I really want to see that movie. Was it good?

[PallaPal]

I personally really enjoyed it. It had both clever and cheesy moments, as should be expected with a Lego-based movie (and especially expected if you're familiar with the Lego games), but it's the good kind of cheesy xp! It's a very fun movie, and while not spoiling too much, I have to say I love how it connected the Lego universe with reality

Sounds like fun. I've played a few of the games myself. It should be real fun to watch. Also is there any reason you set Lucina's head scale to 1.05?

[PallaPal]

o_O
Oh yeah... I was testing out scaling character models using the Motion File. I think I forgot to change that back, lol.

[SJS]

This is looking good. Too bad ol' Lucy doesn't have hair bones.

Well don't worry, I fixed it a while ago. Just thought I'd ask.

Yeah that would have been a nice touch to add, But she was worked on like mad already, so I don't really mind it that much.

EDIT:I just finished up a Win1 for Lucina. The end of it was a bit rushed because I was having issues with the HipN bone again. Either way I think it looks good, but could use a little touch up at the end of it.

[Large Leader]

There needs to be a crouch at the beginning of it.

I WISH we humans could just jump as high as that without crouching, you know how easy it'd be to get around traffic?
