Original Description: It's finally time to release this major, expansive, and heavily anticipated update to Classic Ridley. It's been over a year and a half, so we hope all this time and effort has been worth it. I would have never been able to achieve this without the help of some very talented people, including the user who started it all: BaganSmashBros. Thank you, everyone, for being so patient with us. And have a happy New Year.

This pre-made build is a PMEx build with Ridley re-inserted, alongside some other goodies.

Additionally, here's a blog post made by former PMDT Jedi SOJ, which highlights what makes Ridley unique in the world of modded Smash. https://projectmridley.github.io/ridley/index.html

Everyone's favorite purple dragon.

An addon for the CSProject filetree that will allow you to easily make cosmetics for your own personal Classic Ridley recolours and costumes.

Comes with the .blend files for all of Classic Ridley's costumes, renders and UI replacements in both standard and HD, and the pose.

After a few months of backroom workings, I've finally decided to release my balance overhaul for Classic Ridley to celebrate my 23rd birthday!

There's lots of information to be had here, so please take the time to read every included txt file, starting with the Included Files.txt document.

*NOTE: this is not 100% finished. It's missing several animations. Those include: 2 victory animations, all taunts, swimming animations, proper slipping animations, all animations related to items, +100% ledge actions, ladder animations, etc. But he is ready for competetive fights. You don't have to worry about him suddenly using original character's animations or crashing.

As many of you have been waiting for this to be released, I decided to release current version. It is stable and I don't think I'll be able to work properly on it for a while, so, here it is!

By default, Ridley is meant to replace Lucario, but he can work over any character with PyotrLuzhin's module. He shares his soundbank with Wolf and uses Gray Fox's GFX. To put him over a character, rename his files to fit the replaced character's system name (for example, FitRidley.pac > FitLucario.pac).

IF YOU DON'T READ THE "README!", DON'T COME TO ME FOR HELP BECAUSE I WILL NOT REPLY BACK!
------------------------------
(Does not include model files)

VBrawl compatible Ridley uses the 2.2 version of Project M Ridley, with also the proper AI to fight against.
Now, us non-Project M players can enjoy this moveset!
Just bare in mind...THE ORIGINAL SIDE-B CRASHED THE GAME DURING TESTING, THE SIDE-B NOW REFERS TOO NEUTRAL-B MOVE! I have to get "Pikazz" to somehow re-code the Side-B.
Also, I've tweaked a couple of things just a tiny bit.

Render made by me.

Enjoy.

This is modified version of PM Ridley mod's model. Its thinner, has longer claws, shorter head, 2x more teeth, different tail blade and darker colors. Includes CSPs, CSS and BPs. Does not includes stocks or extra recolors.

Ridley's Lair from original Metroid, Super Metroid and Metroid Zero Mission. Most likely can go over Norfair, but im not sure. Should be \"tourney legal\" since it lacks stage hazards, ceilling, walls and walk-offs. Above average stage size. Has 2 versions with 3 variations each. More about it in the readme.

Extra recolors for version 2.1 of Project M Ridley mod. This pack includes following recolors in same order as they appear on the thumbnail:
*Charizardley - based off various \"Ridley will be Charizard clone\" claims and, of course, Charizard. Was cut from the main mod since version 2.1.
*White color - just a white recolor of Ridley with blue eyes. Was cut from the main mod since version 2.1.
*Firebrand - based off Firebrand from Ghost 'N Goblins/Gargoyle's Quest series. Was cut from the main mod since version 2.0.
*Nemesis Meta Ridley - based off Nemesis Prime and various other black and red recolors.
*Metroid Blast Robot Ridley - based off Ridley Robot from Nintendo Land.
*Metroid Prime 3 Corruption Meta Ridley - based off Meta Ridley from Metroid Prime 3.
*Mecha Ridley - based off Mecha Ridley from Metroid Zero Mission.
*Phantom Ridley - just a random recolor out of nowhere. Has glowing eyes, claws, wing spikes, etc. As seen in last 2 previews, when under Metal Box's effect, everything else turns completly black (FitPhantomAndShadow00 only) or purple (FitPhantomAndPurple00 only) as a reference to Shadow Bonnie and the murderer from FNAF.

Unfortunately, CSPs and BPs have slightly different size from main mod's, but i couldn't find proper size for them.

CSPs are in the images section (if you don't know where it is, then click on icon next to icon with red "!").
Basically changes color of Ridley's wing spikes and gives him his arm and leg spikes back. Has minor lag with 4 players, but its fine with 3 and less. Compatible with 3.6. Do not feed.

Edit2: Dont jump off the sides of the stage, doing so will cause you to die and not return to the rest area.
Edit: This is only for vBrawl only! PM users, stick with PM rest area.

Thanks to Ridley for fixing 5 character icons for the battle info portraits!

This stage pretty much PUSHES the wii to its boundaries with all the details in this stage. Trophies are placed on the stand in the background, and the first 2 rows shows 9 each, then the last 2 shows 8 each!

Update 25.03.2015: now it works. Whoops.
Addon pack for Unofficial Project M Ridley mod by me. Includes version 1.95.
EDIT: don't report this unless there is a bug, glitch or something signifficant. I know its same thing as in main pack, but not everyone will use addon, so, it will just take space in it.

Edit: DO NOT DOWNLOAD. It uses Pit's SFX and GFX for now.
You must know how to use BrawlEx to use this.

Same as normal model, but without all of those spikes. Still no CSPs and things like that. Yet. Contains both normal and desaturated textures.

Same thing, but with desaturated textures. Does not includes Other M recolor and things like CSP for reasons. Must be put into projectm>pf>fighter>pit.

The leader of the Space Pirates, the Cunning God of Death, joing the...Project M? Its time to ENGAGE RIDLEY MOTHER F___ER!

This is unofficial mod for Project M that replaces Pit with the giant space dragon so many wanted, but in the end didn't get in SSB4. His moveset consists of various attacks from his boss fights - pogo tail, fireballs, reflective skin, floor grinding throw and more! This is not just your common PSA with horrible animation that exist just to exist. Its not exactly on Brawl animations' level, but still a lot higher than normal. Enjoy this mod.

Does not works properly in Brawl and SSE (both in Brawl and Project M). Nothing is final (except for moveset), everything is subject to change. Any reports of what is already listed in readme will be removed.





...I think its too big of a deal to miss...





...Im so sorry.

Thanks to Arko for preview video.
Updated version of the Pyrosphere by ALM5252 and Gravity. It includes Other M Ridley instead of Brawl Ridley used in original stage and this pack Nightmare alt version of the stage shown on one of the screenshots (it is a purely aesthetic/visual change since neither Ridley nor Nightmare are stage hazards). No video preview for now, but it will be uploaded soon, so, have screenshots only for now.

The Pack comes with 10 different versions to use:
- Moving Platforms
- Moving Platforms Alt (Bigger Platforms, Different Animation)
- Static Platforms
- Static Platforms Alt (Bigger Platforms, Different Layout)
- No Platforms
- All of those listed above with Nightmare instead of Ridley

Doesn't comes with the SSS Stuff. Should work with regular Brawl, etc.

Captain Falcon decided to release another % of his full power and oh boy, it doesn't ends well for his enemies. Now Falcon Punch, Knee of Justice, Raptor Boost (or whatever Side B was called) and dash attack instantly kill anyone on the screen with "HYES!" and a massive explosion of awesomeness (explosion with Final Destination inside of it shown on one of the screenshots). Also, it adds "FALCON KICK!" and "PUNCH!" to few attacks. I will remove it if i am not allowed to make PSA for Project M using Project M characters.
Fixed previews, now it won't get reported for that.

This character doesn`t exists, just wanted to make something. Used Thunderwing textures for him. If someone would be able to make Ref and Spe textures or make some parts glow...Anyway, credits goes to xZedkiel for ExVeemon model. Voice pack coming soon...

I will delete it if something is wrong...

Want to replace Charizard with your favorite Metroid villain? Do you now need recolors for cBliss? If your answer is yes, this pack is for you.

Since there weren't originally any recolors and now that it's possible to use 10 costumes with ASF1nk's cBliss, I've recolored snoopy's imports of Ridley and Meta Ridley to look like his appearances in every Metroid game he's been in.

BaganSmashBros recolored the original Ridley into Other M Ridley, I just removed the fire from his tail since it's not on any of the other textures.

Costumes are as follows:
00 - Purple/Normal
01 - Red/Super Metroid Artwork
02 - Green
03 - Blue/Ridley X
04 - Zero Mission
05 - Mecha Ridley colors
06 - Meta Ridley
07 - Meta Ridley (Prime 3)
08 - Omega Ridley
09 - Other M

CSPs, multiple Icons, and CSS Names are included.

Quality - medium.
Game - Metroid Other M.
Wasn`t hard. Wings are a bit damaged. Can be used with Ridley PSA.

Now there is another clone? And Adam didn`t authorized Final Smash for now. Use your Thunder attack!

Now, unstead of Ridley, his clone joins the Brawl!...Still as boss...
Same texture as my first hack`s.
