About Project M
(taken from the official site)
Project M is a community-made mod of Brawl inspired by Super Smash Bros. Melee's gameplay designed to add rich, technical gameplay to a balanced cast of characters while additionally enhancing the speed of play. Project M employs new codes which seamlessly add in new, universal features to the entire cast to add technical variety to all characters.

The Project Goal:
Project M hopes to achieve a game similar to Super Smash Bros. Melee in many respects. It does not, however, intend to be a 1:1 Melee clone. The following is a list of the main aspects of Super Smash Bros. Melee that inspired and have carried over into Project M:

1. A fast-paced game with flowing, natural movement.

2. The balance of offense and defense changes depending on the exact matchup and playstyle, but overall tends to favor offense slightly.

3. Offstage edgeguarding is risky but rewarding, while on-stage edgeguarding is safer but less rewarding.
Recoveries generally require great skill to use, with the advantage usually being with the edgeguarding player, with some exceptions.

4. The combos are challenging and spontaneous, with anything longer than 2-3 hits requiring a knowledge of both characters' options and some degree of prediction and/or a deep understanding of the mental aspect of the game.

In the case of LC, it's a mixture of both and trust me when I calling it "not his cup of tea" would be an understatement XD

I'll take your word for it. I'm not familiar with him.

Honestly. There are some things, from what I have read so far on the website. That kinda just make me go "bleh" and some that make me go "yeh".

I could understand needing the Top-Tier's from Melee to be just as they were in Melee to balance the cast...IF it weren't for the fact that doing so is basically like saying "These characters were perfect as they were in Melee."

When I think of a sequel, I think : Everyone gets their buffs, everyone gets their nerfs. Some new things are added that are quite nice. Balancing is made. All is good.

To me, exempting the Top Tier characters from Melee from this line of thinking is asinine if you are going for what you envision for a true sequel (by paraphrasing of SDo0M's own words).

Not just the other characters, but everyone, should be balanced. Not just balanced to match the Top-Tiers.

Once everyone has gotten their buffs and nerfs, the Top-Tiers should be subjected to minor gameplay and mechanics changes in order to make them different from their Melee counterparts, instead of making them vanilla copies of their Melee incarnations. If we're going for something of a sequel in terms of gameplay, why would I want more of the same of what I had in the last game, on any character?

That's my two cents, but I get the feeling SDo0M will rebuke and talk down to me since my thinking isn't entirely in-line with Project M's current "grand design". >_>

I'm looking forward to it, since I've been wanting a faster-paced Brawl since day one.

Though I am disappointed that Ganon and Falco went straight back to being straight-up clones. I can understand the reasoning behind it, but still. /:

Too bad I won't be able to try it for a while since I only have Dolphin. :c

I think it would be cooler if it had new portraits.

Just kidding.

Mostly.

I don't really think anything of it since I haven't tried it. If anything, I think it'll be an interesting way to change up Brawl a bit.

In defense of Project M and its team, I like the fact that these guys came together to craft something for the Melee fanatics, the transition from Melee to Brawl was a pretty harsh one, character balancing-wise so I get that. On the other hand, I kinda agree with Velen...I kinda envisioned it to be like a Melee atmosphere but with character balancing all across the board, not just remaking certain characters into their former selves while everyone else tweaked to match up with them.

One thing that resonated strongly with me was how some characters got buffs and moveset tweaks that were very much needed without the atmosphere of Melee...seeing Wario take on his Wario Land style and Ike gaining much needed tweaks like the many uses of Quickdraw, Ness getting his PK Thunders a much needed boost...stuff like that, is awesome and I actually wish that I could use these fixes in all the different types of Brawl we have released without the physics being tied specifically to Melee.

I don't wanna sound like im complaining because an individual can take that and feel unappreciated and step away from releasing hacks publicly, I can't do what these guys did and its dope that they are attempting to make something new or different. But anyways, that just my two cents.

In my experience P:M discussions don't end well, but let's see how this one goes.

I for one think that Project M is brilliant.  A bunch of guys got together and instead of complaining about a game not being how they wanted it to be, decided to remake the game to fit their tastes.  Gotta give 'em credit for their determination at least.  Besides, they're doing some pretty cool stuff with it.  Remaking the Brawl characters to fit within the Melee engine must be hell to do and the fact that they aren't just tweaking attack/frame data but they're actually reworking how the characters function just blows my mind.  If they manage to balance it all out it'll be a work of art.  Not to mention how much they're doing with the base mechanics.  Bringing back wavedashing is great and all, but adding stuff like aerial glidetossing for more options during battle is even better.

I imagine I'll spend much of my "Smash time" playing around with Project M once it's 100% done.

I honestly cannot complain about P:M till I actually play it.
I'm more then hyped due to some of the changes I've seen.
Pit with an Air dash, Lucario with Ryu like attacks and combo ability, wario with an actually viable moveset, these types of things are just awesome to me.
for those wondering, the demo will have more then half the cast, so get hyped.

Post by: Thany on April 15, 2012, 07:53:16 PM
Well, I have my likes and dislikes of it like many others.

My likes are how it's fast. I never cared for Brawl's speed, which is one reason I play Brawl+, I prefer playing SSB's in a faster, more aggressive environment, regardless of the level of "competitive depth"(especially because of how Berserker-esque I play.) I also love the return of L canceling. And the new ledge occupancy thing for tethers is genius! vBrawl should've had that ;__;

My dislikes are how the majority of the characters are handled, and I'll go into some depth with this.

There were a lot of character changes that I found interesting and liked a lot. Lucas is one that I think is fantastic, especially given how it changes him from Ness more by giving him a new, more useful Up B, among other things.
I like Ike's new tweaks as well, it gives him some improvements without completely changing a lot about him.

Then we have changes like Lucario. Lucario is one of my mains, and I personally didn't like the giant overhaul it got. I do like how the SideB has use in the air now(again, this should've had aerial use by default. C'mon, Sakurai : /), but everything else that was changed just seems too different now. It doesn't seem like the Lucario I've come to enjoy playing as. It's something that I feel a lot of PSA's succumb to - a moveset that just isn't very...Smash Brothers-y. But it is still an interesting idea nonetheless.

I find Wario is another example, but to a lesser degree. His changes make him reminiscent of his earlier days starting on the Gameboy with Wario Land, but I'm not too excited about the radical level of change. I'm not really one to believe in remaking a character from scratch for the sake of being competitive(although, de-cloning is still an idea I find appealing), but then again, I'm either the world's most competitive casual or the world's most casual competive player.

My idea would be to instead focus on improving what they have, as opposed to changing a bunch of things, or to keep the changes to a minimum, a la Lucas.

And I know this will seem like a minor nitpick, but given how I'm very anal retentive about all things about Marth/Roy(this may have been changed in the second demo. Haven't nabbed it yet) But some things with Marth that were not really changed from an aesthetic point of view.
Many of his animations were different in Melee, but I'll just bring up two attacks that looked different, with one of them moving in the opposite direction.

His 3rd down side B hit was not changed back to Melee's, nor was his fourth up hit. The 3rd down hit is less of a problem, but the 4th up it travels the other way now. This was not changed in this first demo, and it seems contradictory to say all his Melee hitboxes were restored when that attack goes in the opposite direction now.

Pic time!(Go! Go! 10 second doodle powers!)
(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/62979271/4th_up.gif)
Left is Melee's, right is Brawl's

And I find Velen brings up a good point about balance. Instead of bringing everyone up to the Fox/Falco/Marth/Shiek/etc range, I think it'd be good to have things a little lower. I recall reading that Pokemon Trainer(With all 3 mons together -  not the "wild" ones) was cut for this reason - He just couldn't fit in the competitive level the others were able to.
I, personally, found Marth was pretty overpowered in Melee. Same goes for Falco. It felt like when I played as or against these two, it didn't require the effort/skill to be as good with them as it did when using a character cursed to be in the lower tiers, like Roy or either Link, or God forbid Bowser...And even then, with a low tier character, sometimes all the skill in the world will not save you... ;__;

I can understand the goal of P:M, but I think making everyone better/viable would be easier if the 'bar' weren't set as high as it is.

But, either way, I still did enjoy the first demo a lot, and I'm looking forward to what is to come. I hope to get my hands on that demo soon  :happy:

Agreed.  A lot of the ranting going on is based on a lack of information or outdated information mainly because of the fact that:

1) Demo's not out yet (though that's our fault, we've been frantically working to get stuff ready but we've been encountering a couple of problems)
2) Very few here watch our streams. 
3) Heck you may not have even had a proper look at the official P:M site, since that at least has up to date character info now on all the demo 2 roster.

Let's at least wait til demo 2 before making big rants.

-sorry, but you're simply using those things you stated as an excuse to brush off any good points anyone here may have had at all.

I've already read all the pages on the Project:M site. One doesn't need to actually try the demo in order to say what one feels at first glance, and not having tried the demo does not invalidate how someone feels about it at first glace either, no matter how much you may think otherwise.

I said what I said based on your words, what I read, what I saw in the demonstration videos on the general changes page, and my own thoughts and feelings of how balancing should be handled.

So far I see no effort to make any changes to the top-tiers after everyone has been given their changes, and I already stated how I feel about giving the rest of the cast something new while the Top Tiers stay their same old stale selves from Melee with no real changes beyond aesthetics. They bring nothing new to the table now. Everyone else but them has something new now.

So you haven't actually watched any up to date gameplay of it?  What you've basically done is the equivalent of forming an opinion of a game just by reading previews and watching old trailers.  If you're going to construct some kind of "first glance opinion" of something, at least have the decency not to dwell on one thing like a hawk.  There are 29 characters, yet you insist on dwelling on the three that haven't received changes. 

So far I see no effort to make any changes to the top-tiers after everyone has been given their changes, and I already stated how I feel about giving the rest of the cast something new while the Top Tiers stay their same old stale selves from Melee with no real changes beyond aesthetics. They bring nothing new to the table now. Everyone else but them has something new now.

Because they don't NEED anything new.  Whether you like it or not, the primary target for P:M is Melee enthusiasts who do a lot of competitive play.  Melee's competitive scene is still pretty prominent and has been for almost a decade now.  Those players are going to want to see those top characters able to pull off all the things they could before.  They'll want to see Fox and Falco with all their old tricks.  If they felt stale, then this competitive scene would be dead but it isn't.

HOWEVER

Unlike in Melee, every character is good enough to hold their own against these guys so it's down to the players to find ways to take these former top tiers and adapt to these new threats.  The characters have enough depth and the fast paced and fluid environment of the game allows this kind of leeway.

No, because "[censored] tourney[censored]s" and [censored] "Melee 2.0". :V They wanted an expansion pack, not a [censored] sequel. Well now they made their own, I hope they're happy.

Yeah, comments like this make it hard to take you at all seriously sometimes.  At least Velen and Thany and co had the decency to come up with decent enough reasoning as to what they weren't looking forward to as regards to the project.

Hey SDoOM, did you guys make any extra changes to the characters that you all haven't listed on the P:M website? Also did you or any of the mods have the chance to check my post for Wario? As I stated in it, its just an idea..I don't know anything about PSA'ing but the concept seems simple, its just a animation change with accompanying sfx and such but the original move properties and such remain the same, I was just looking on some feedback to see if it would be a good idea or not

Well, LC, it doesn't means only competitive players would enjoy it either, y'know? ._. You can play it and see if you find it fun to do so.


Title: Re: Your thoughts on Project M
Post by: LC-DDM on April 16, 2012, 07:04:09 AM
In all honesty, I at one point wanted Melee. That was BEFORE I found out about the competitive players. After like two years of getting Brawl, I hacked the Wii, got Melee through "fun" means, and realized it's floatier than Brawl and not as fast as advertised. In the end, it's not really that great a game, and whatever fun it had was sucked out simply because you have to play a set way in only four or five stages, not counting counterpicks (if any), the mere mention of items makes tourneyfans rage, and apparently playing with a character I like means I'm a scrub, instead I should play with what others think I should play as, which is why I LOVED hearing about that story that MLG (I think it was that anyway) only allowed tournies with items. There is something being done wrong when even other tourneyfans reject a game for it's pro community.

Bottom line, I highly doubt a mod that would turn Brawl into Melee 2.0 would make me want to play it again, simply because anything of interest to you doesn't interest me. At all. Pretty sure I'm entitled to my opinion, and I did this post with the least amount of random [censored]ing possible. I can't get any less offensive than this.

And before anyone asks, I'd rather play with the PS2 controller because it's more comfortable and doesn't have a mutant button layout. Not hating, just saying.

Just curious: What're the deadly freezes that are keeping the release about? If its the training thing I doubt there's a way around it...

Aaanyway, I'm sad that this re-clones (somewhat) Ganon and Falco, I'd have been more hyped for this if they were changed further from brawl like Charizard or Lucas (Although I'm gonna point out if the changed made to him were to improve, then you guys should look at B+ Lucas, just messing with some stats and he became waay better than vBrawl in which he was already epic with the right skill) That being said, the character I'm most hyped about is Lucario, it is a shame to lose so much but from what I've seen what he's gaining will make him deadly (+I may enjoy checking out his coding <O< >O>)

@LC The floatiness is good, I have no idea why in P:M they seem to want it reduced :L characters are floaty because that makes awesome aerial combat which, due to people being flung around everywhere, happens a lot. Just look at vBrawl squirtle, if you think he sucks its just because you don't know how to play his air game, his only weakness was not having a real Down special because he had to share with 2 other guys inside some other guy's pocket :|

Here's what I think all smash brothers games should be like: FAST horizontal, SLOOoooooooooow Vertical... and what makes vbrawl super slow compared to melee is the huge meaningless hit lag, land lag, dodge lag, attack lag, lag lag lag all over in every move for no reason at all instead of just ending it quickly allowing the next attack XP In other words it was slow horizontal D:

Not that you can't have it, just that... At least I find it better to wait for the finished Beta so we can all test and critique. I have mixed feelings about P:M, but I'm holding my horses 'til I try it. :P

I love how my second point of watching the streams soared over your head completely.  If you watched the streams, or even watched the up to date footage on the ProjectMelee youtube channel and a couple of other channels then of course you'd have a more validated opinion because you're basing accusations on up to date information. 

You're creating accusations out of very little basis.  As I said before, it's like forming an opinion of a game just by reading previews and watching old trailers instead of taking a little time to look at more up to date gameplay footage that actually shows off the game in motion.

I knew I'd find a thread like this here.

LC - Chill man, I'm starting to think you don't think any game should be competitive, tournaments make they're own rules all the time. Nothing is stopping anyone from saying items are allowed in they're tournament. But even with items i still think you would find some way to bash it.

Also you have to "Play" Melee, not make your own it to judge how the game engine of melee work. Melee has a completely different feel to the game to brawl, captain falcon alone is enough to tell the difference.

And they have a controller just for you, it called the "Classic Controller Pro"

Anyway, I was more hype about it about a year ago when i still had friends willing to play smash brothers, but now everyone is trying to do they're own thing which is a shame.

I'm still going to play, but will most likely be alone, or over wifail.

I guess people didn't really understand the project goal, but it's not really they're fault i mean even play-testers don't understand the goal sometimes. Project:M isn't about RE-balance, it's about pulling those low win characters into high win standards.

Funny thing is while they get a few complaints about RE-cloned characters from brawl players, they get TONS more complaints from Melee players about how some characters seem even better then Melee's high win characters.

Of course there are some character design issues that i disagree with, but I going to wait until after Demo2 comes out so i can test they're "Vision" before i make any complaints.

I say everyone who enjoys playing smash should give it a fair chance, though anyone who makes PSA for fun should be more then interested in Project M then just playing it, i'm sure it's has tons of code that PSA makers are going to want to explore.

And I might do a mod version of Project M for myself cause they're are a few "OverDrive" mechanics that i enjoy.

Nah, tournies with items is something I'd actually bother to watch since it's not uselessly removing a game mechanic for the sake of it. The original game has items, the original stages have hazards. To me a true pro is being able to play with those things on the battlefield and not being a whiny mess when he gets hit. And what do you mean by "Play" Melee? I've already said I played it. It's not all it's cracked up to be. It's uninteresting. This expansion pack won't make me change my ideas.

Oh, cool. Do you know of a place where they give them for free, or a place with weak enough security so I can steal one? I'll still use my PS2 controller simply because I feel it's not a mess made by a drunkard.

P:M is a good experience. I never mastered Melee's combo/fast-paced action stuff because i was young and didn't know how to play it well (the only thing i know how to do is wave-dashing). I wasn't into fast-paced fighting games at the time until Marvel vs Capcom 2 was out.

Now that im into competitive fast-paced fighting games, i find it more fun. I don't go to tourneys but i have some friends who are competitive.

Im not saying you HAVE to play fast-paced fighting games. As long as the game is fun, I dont care if its not fast-paced like brawl. I wont say which one is better because i just like them equally in everyway.

Cant wait to try out the demo.
(Btw, where do you place custom songs in Project M's folders?)

Nah, tournies with items is something I'd actually bother to watch since it's not uselessly removing a game mechanic for the sake of it. The original game has items, the original stages have hazards. To me a true pro is being able to play with those things on the battlefield and not being a whiny mess when he gets hit.

That limits it down to only those crazy Asian people.  Those guys that do those crazy item combo vids

And they have a controller just for you, it called the "Classic Controller Pro"


The pro would be good if it had rumbling... Due to always playing with rumble on you get used to it so once its gone the game seems off forever :L The classic controller pro is a fail for brawl because of that, GC controller is the best (too bad mine is so old and went overseas so many times before its actually kinda rotten x.x)

Aaanyway, Yay its out :D downloading it now. Btw: will there ever be a .txt released of the GCT with all the codes named so then we can choose codes with ease and such? y'kno, mix and match what you want? XD I've done that with my B+ and I really wanna put some P:M into my main codeset after trying it and *probably* enjoying the extra mechanics.

I'm really digging the new side smash for snake, it's freaking dank and super useful. Lucario's shroyuken Up smash is also quite useful. I really also like that toon link has a jump attack for his side smash (also dat milk drink taunt >.>)
I found ike to be pretty great as well, definently dig that second charge on his side special.
I dunno if it was intentional, but when fully charged and landing the slash, it reminds me of sol badguy's instant kill from guilty gear on the PS1.

Overall liking it so far, and can say all my mains play exactly as I thought they would.

Post by: Thany on April 17, 2012, 07:00:20 PM
I've finally been able to play P:M Demo2. It's pretty nice, but I find it has a few flaws.

Ike is AWESOME. To me, he is the shining STAR of this build. I did not now he had four counter quotes either, I knew of all of them being in the game somewhere except his "YERR THRUUUE!" one :3.
ToonLink is probably my second favourite to play as. I am in love with that milk drink taunt(My second favourite Melee character was Young Link)  :happy: And that new entry of his is a comedic improvement on the original, I'm just not fond of his recovery...I was expecting it to be more like his/YoungLink's in terms of being able to get back on stage x__x

I've tried Lucario for a bit. Sadly it is just not my cup of tea, but I suppose it's difficult to please everyone ;__; . The Side B's aerial 'grab' is still fantastic idea.

My problem isn't really with gameplay functions now, but it's the animations I find could use work. Marth especially had many animations that felt like they weren't really made with a lot of time or effort.(I ask for forgiveness if any of the following sounds harsh x__x )

I'll hide these in spoilers. I've got lots to say .__.

Dancing Blade 3rd down hit
His 3rd down hit(side B) is changed, but it looks choppy and the pose looks...Bizarre to me. The animation itself doesn't really flow smoothly. The pose would be better based off of the aerial version, given how that one, oddly, is more similar to the Melee one. Also, I'd personally leave the first frame looking like the other two 3rd hits, so it flows. The other two did not receive changes that edit how the move functions, so that causes it to feel out of place.

But I've redone this animation for Roy more times than I can count. The HipN is a fickle bone, so I was wondering if it was an issue with rotating it? I used the YRotN bone in it myself.

Dancing Blade 4th up hit
His 4th up hit(side B) is literally just a copy of his 4th normal hit, but with an awkward ascension in the middle and a changed ending (And when he stands up, I find that was pretty choppy looking, frames 41-the end). I don't want to sound mean, but this one really just felt lazy.

Dancing Blade 2nd normal hit
His 2nd normal hit, much like in Melee, he spins the sword and his arm before the stab...But this was not done for the aerial version. Again, this is one of the little things that really make works shine. Was this overlooked?

Smash attacks
His smashes have similar issues: After he does an Up Smash, for some reason he pulls the sword blade down through his face. The down smash makes him slide around a bit. The F-smash, he can't seem to keep his sword on the ground. His arm is higher than it should be, and as a result, the sword isn't resting against the ground before he stands up, he's holding above it.

Jabs
I also find his jabs are kinda choppy looking, especially his left leg movement from frames 4-7 on Attack11. Although, I do like how it looks like he's swinging the sword correctly now on his second jab.

There are some other things, like Link's entry not ending in his Wait1 stance perfectly(the sword, anyway), or some other puzzling changes, like Luigi's "falling over" victory looping into itself instead of being his WinWait for that animation.( I personally found that WinWait was pretty funny to see him wobble and his nose periodically twitch  :af:  )

But overall, I still did enjoy this mod quite a bit and I'd encourage people to give it a try(I won't go into Ike's face issue with the D-smash, as I know that's currently impossible to remedy as far as I know), but to me it's mainly the animations(Especially with making the feet stay in place) that could use some work.

A very fun mod, even for one who sits on the competitive fence like myself. Just needs some polish to make things shine brighter :3


Title: Re: Your thoughts on Project M
Post by: Allbait on April 17, 2012, 07:12:24 PM
Kay, so this is my pros and cons list of 5 things each for first impressions:

Pros
1- well structured (so organized and pretty :D)
2- lots of useful mechanics (though I don't consider the new air dodge, which i forgot the name of it)
3- very well balanced (each character with a good side and bad)
4- interesting movesets (Lucas' is my fav :L but he was as well in vB and B+ so... idk I'm always good with him)
5- allows nice combos

Cons
1- Camping is way too easy to do
2- juggling is tough to get out of most times but not tough to perform
3- AI for CPUs can be suicidal... as can I when I make a booboo :L
4- some combos are so easy to pull off and so much more worth it than some fancy combos
5- where's mah air combat!? D: this part was intentional I know but there's so much gravity that my fav way to fight is practically gone, most of the time you're on the floor to fight :L this also makes recovery harder by itself which makes edge guarding easier than blocking wolf's super slow blaster or lucario's aura sphere or even mario and luigi's fireball XD



So anyway: Its fun... but not fun if you end up playing with a d*** that uses the cheap and easy to do strategies all the time... I prefer my B+... its faster, less clunky and way funner IMO <3

Toon Link is awesome. I actually enjoy using him now. Though his milk drink animation could use some polishing (the bottom of the bottle lip should be at his mouth, though it's at the center). Zelda is also pretty classy. Love Pit's new specials.

I don't care for new Falco. And the Zelda/Sheik portraits are really blah. Especially Zelda's.

I still use Mario though because hes a basic character and my favorite.

I was the one who did the milk taunt animation and trust me when I say it's very awkward to position the bottle well because of not being able to see it in Brawlbox.  I just had to essentially guess where the bottle would situate itself.

Im liking so far, quick question though....

Will you guys alter the original CPU A.I to match new moves for some of the characters that had those changes? I play alone a lot in free for alls and it would suck to have the CPU kill itself because of a new move replacing one they originally had, that they aren't programmed to use efficiently?

At some point most likely, though funnily enough it's fairly low on our priority list.  Mainly because it's quite an awkward and tedious process that not enough people know how to do.

Speaking of which, I'd really like to thank PPX for editing the AI for Sheik and Lucas so that they aren't so stupid.  It saves us a fair bit of time :)

It is indeed this actually.  It's a combination of loading stuff from the SD card and trimming down a lot of fat files (the common files were trimmed down a LOT).

The common files are full of crap that don't need to be there but are, and is responsible for Brawl's loading times being rather long.

The motion files for the transforming characters do not need to be in the common files AT ALL.
Just put them in their respective pf character folders, remove them from the common.pacs a certain way, and tada!

Well, I got the new Demo finally.  Gotta say, I'm thoroughly impressed.  I haven't played too much what with all of the work I have to do, but I'm already enjoying it far more than the last demo.  I really like what they did with guys like Lucario, Wario, and Charizard.  Charizard I'm finding especially fun, which is odd considering I don't use him in any other version of Brawl.  ROB is also fun.  I love what this did with his Side-B.

So yeah, two thumbs up and all of that jazz.

Is there a way to take the character movesets and play with them in your own Brawl? Im using Beyond You's Riivolution and I tried using movesets from some of the Project M characters but the physics would seem a little off and their moves wouldn't work well, some would enter T-stance or the PSA animation would play the original move animation with effects of the PSA, like for example Bowser's Koopa Klaw would still play the Flying Slam animation but he wouldn't jump in the air with them....anyone know anything?

Y'know, with that in consideration, with a big enough SD card you probably could stuff ALL the brawl files (trimmed the un-necessaries obviously) in that, just for a faster loading game.

Would kinda defeat the purpose of the disc, but still. :V

Care to elaborate?  Whilst Bowser is awesome, I don't see how he's broken. 

As for Lucas, first let me correct you in saying it's not until you miss, it's until you fail to get a successful hit.  There's a difference because the latter includes hitting shields (you lose the charge upon hitting the foe's shield).  And it remains because a player should be rewarded for being accurate in punishing opponents.

Bowser has been given super armor in nearly half of his moves, and are now ridiculously strong. His forward smash, to me, seems nothing short of Brawl- quality, as it's almost exactly the same in power as his final smash form. That's just the beginning of it, I could stay here and criticize every flaw with his new abilities, but those are the ones that bother me the most.

And about Lucas... I just think that it would be more reasonable for it to be the other way around offense up, the charge should wear off AFTER the attack makes contact, and not last forever until you fail. Imagine if Samus's beam were to always be fully charged, and she could fire full charged shots at an offstage, near helpless target repeatedly?

His moves have a mixture of heavy armour and super armour and the super armour only lasts for when he flashes red for that short period of time.  The forward smash is incredibly powerful, but also painfully slow and extremely punishable if you dodge it (don't shield it though, it eats through shields).  Whilst we do take a lot of feedback into consideration, saying something is flat out broken that's been developed for months when you've had all of about 2 days to playtest the mod seems a little unfair don't ya think?  At least give the metagame some time to develop ;)

I like Ike. I just have to get used to him. I keep trying to play him similarly to Brawl but it just...doesn't work. Obviously, I'll get it with time. I like what's been done with him though. Got to say, pulling off combo's with Ike is very satisfying.

As an aside, ever consider adding blue fire/aura damage to him? Just to play off of his end game self at Radiant Dawn where get's a mystic blue flame.

^ This. Publicity is publicity and in the case of IGN that is pretty damn big publicity. Especially consdering it's an actual full-lenght feature and not just a quick copy paste newsflash like it usually gets on other sites.

I'd also like to quote this from the comment section (which was suprisingly positive btw):

Quote
This is not about competitive or not. This is about a group of talented folks seeing a space between Melee and Brawl, a space that held their ideal Super Smash Bros. game. They spent two years of their own time - for no pay - to create this.

Try the game. Respect the effort. Don't turn this into a silly debate about what type of gamer you are. That's just silly.

PROJECT M IS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL BRAWL, me and my friend play ssb competitively that means that on ssbm you could learn and practice things such as L cancling, wave dashing, moonwalking and other crap that ssbb took away from us.

Brawl is too noob friendly because you dont have to learn these techniques because they are no longer in the game making it much easier just to swing around and try punching the whole match.

Project M is a good thing they brought back all of those techniques that us competitive gamers used. I like games ment for competitive play not just noob friendly games were anyone can pick up a controller than beat you down.

Brawls graphics are great but they should have kept the fighting like melee and project M brought that back.

So look we got, L cancling, wave dashing, mooning walking, we got all of that great stuff back from melee, the only people who will complain are the noobies who arnt good at it, we still have the good graphics from brawl now.

IMO project M should have been how ssbb should have been in the first place.
You can't just take away things from the game just because a noob gets mad that he didnt put in time to get better than a certain player.

One thing, can you put texture hacks on PROJECT M?

Have you won a SSBB tourney? If you haven't, you can't really say it's noob friendly.

Also:
Brawl is too noob friendly because you dont have to learn these techniques because they are no longer in the game
So that's why I can't learn L-Cancelling in Brawl... I should've known it was because it wasn't in the game to begin with. Thanks for sharing your logical wisdom!

My friend taught me how to get good at ssb and yes he has been to tournaments around were I live for money. I havn't because I don't have a wii,

Even my friend will agree that melee takes more skill than brawl, Project M brought back the techniques that the pros use, KEN AND ISAI oh maybe you don't play competitively but some people like myself do.

I never bashed the game, I gave my opinion, if you don't like my opinion then this thread should say NO BAD OPINIONS. I'm telling facts if I spoke a lie do point that out.

AND HOW ISNT IT NOOB FRIENDLY LOLOL, you mean to tell me that brawl takes the same skill as melee, lolol I think not. Of course the pros will be better but the noobs have a better chance at beating me at brawl than they would at melee.

AND HOW ISNT IT NOOB FRIENDLY LOLOL, you mean to tell me that brawl takes the same skill as melee, lolol I think not. Of course the pros will be better but the noobs have a better chance at beating me at brawl than they would at melee.
So just because Melee had more glitchs for people to take advantage of makes Brawl be noob friendly? And, I'll use it again!  "buddy, you claimed Brawl was a noob game and melee was the only competitive one, not this."

Quit twisting my words around like a little kid, this is why I play xbox because there are too many immature people like you on wii. I said BRAWL IS NOOB FRIENDLY, lets say those words again so you dont twist this around NOOB FRIENDLY, I didnt say brawl is A NOOB GAME, i said NOOB FRIENDLY if you play games than you would know what that means.

Just answer this question and we should be done.

WHICH WOULD BE MORE LIKELY
A noobie winning a match against someone thats good on melee
or a noobie winning a match against someone on brawl?
Brawl is more NOOB FRIENDLY,
Just like GOW3 IS MORE NOOB FRIENDLY BECAUSE OF THE SAWED OFF SHOTGUN

Ranked? I said i dont have a wii. Do you see the pro ssb players on top ranked, Most of them just play tournaments they dont stay up 24/7 playing ranked some of them actually have crap to do.

You got wii online, can you find people to play on wii, because if you wanna play ill tell my friend to come down and ill play you and put it on youtube.

Oh and dashing and crap aint glitches lololol

Its built in the game, its just dodging on the ground its not a glitch, a glitch would be like going through the ground, or shooting invisible weapons, built in mechanics arnt glicthes.

Project: M is a mechanics and moveset alteration to bring SSBB closer to SSBM. Trying to derail actual feedback on this project into a stupid debate about competitive/casual gameplay is not only off-topic, but also completely counter-productive and almost akin to trolling.

Yeah, probably not. At least not in the beta stages. Or even in the near final stages of development.

But... For this to be a "complete" game, they should hex items to be weaker, and balance final smashes... Er, as much as they can anyway.

Still though, it's highly unlikely they will alter items, or even fix glaring freezes with them.

I can handle this myself later in development, when I balance and/or Meleeify the items.

Later in development we will definitely consider altering items.  We're not as closed minded as you guys may think we are :P  As for Final Smashes I'd personally love to edit a bunch of them.  Toon Link springs to mind straight away.  Bugs me how his Final Smash is a worse version of Link's when it could be something actually really cool/funny referencing his various games.

However, this wouldn't be for a good long time.  There are still a load more important things to do.

Oh, my mistake. :P

That's really good to hear. Items need love too. Since they are kinda... Too wonky in Brawl for my liking, like Pokeballs, more then half of the time, you get Munchlax, or Goldeens... In a way, they get WAY overshadowed by Death in a Can™... I mean Assist Trophies. There should be balance between the two, less useless Pokemon, and less killer Assist Trophies. And maybe if possible, making Manaphy more common, that was a interesting idea they wasted by making far too rare.

Congrats on 33k downloads!

Also, I finally got to try P:M the other day, and I enjoyed it. I was honestly disappointed with how Falco plays, I guess I'm just not some uber tourney guy or whatever because I couldn't play him. /:

Lucario was also tough to play as, but I think it's just a tough change to get used to.

However... I absolutely, 100% LOVE how Charizard plays. I'm not sure why, but it feels so rewarding to play as him. Bowser is also much more enjoyable to play as, mostly because of the Super Armor since it actually makes it possible to win with him. :af:

The heavier characters are much more enjoyable to play as in general.

I also love how ROB plays, I love flying around the stage using his Side B. XD

Yeah, lotsa fun.

All of the .brstms included in the download are all loud static. I fixed this by downloading the .brstms from CustomBrawlMusic. And also when R.O.B. tries to use his Final Smash, the game freezes.

Have you defragmented your SD card?  I get that all the time and not just with the P:M codeset.  Defragment it so that it optimises your SD for the brstms.  And the R.O.B. freeze is known and being fixed I believe.

Awesome Sonic Combo video and congrats on 33k downloads guys.

Having spent more time with the demo, I will express some minor feeling of "Too bad their aiming for melee 2.0" with some of the characters. It'd be neat to see Fox or Falco with a few new moves too (I am well aware that this is not in the cards in anyway, shape, or form).

So, attempting to play through SSE:M and I'm curious if this happens to anyone else or not. For starters, anytime a non-demo2 character is playable (with the exception of Kirby and Squirtle), I play as Mario. Not a problem right?

But then my SSE CSS is limited to only the first character listed in any given team. When all characters are together, I can only choose Mario, Link, and DK. Does that happen to everyone or is it just me?

Having spent more time with the demo, I will express some minor feeling of "Too bad their aiming for melee 2.0" with some of the characters. It'd be neat to see Fox or Falco with a few new moves too (I am well aware that this is not in the cards in anyway, shape, or form).

So, attempting to play through SSE:M and I'm curious if this happens to anyone else or not. For starters, anytime a non-demo2 character is playable (with the exception of Kirby and Squirtle), I play as Mario. Not a problem right?

But then my SSE CSS is limited to only the first character listed in any given team. When all characters are together, I can only choose Mario, Link, and DK. Does that happen to everyone or is it just me?

idk about the first problem, but hte send one happens to me. I laoded it up and went to the end to pick pit adn luicairo adn ppls, but its just mario kirby and link

So, how does Project M compare with Minus? Because I'm already using Minus, I'm not really hyped about P:M. I've never played any fighters besides Brawl. I'm not a great Brawl player either. I don't know any advanced techniques or big combos. It would take a huge difference for me to notice any changes. Because of this, I don't know if P:M would be too noticeably different from ordinary Brawl or Brawl Minus for someone like me. What do u guys think about this?

Give it a try. Several characters have plenty of new moves for you to have fun with. For biggest impact, choose Charizard, Lucario, Toon Link, Wolf, or Sonic. They have new moves that will be apparent to you as soon as you start playing.

Even if you don't stick with it, at least you can say you gave it a try. Just back up your B- stuff on your desktop first.

Is there any chance double jump cancelling with Ness will be made to work with X or Y? It's impossible to take full advantage of it having to tap the control stick twice.

Yeah, I wouldn't expect a final version for a while yet. To be fair though, this demo is only missing about 10 characters, so that's a good sign.

You mean...it doesn't? I'm pretty sure I only DJC with Ness using the X and Y buttons.

Yeah that works, but it needs to work in combination with the control stick, for the sake of using it to attack from ground level. (Such as Up+Y+bair) For example, pressing X-X-attack or Y-Y-attack works properly, but tapping Up+X/Y+attack does nothing, he double jumps during the attack.

Honestly, the way I got into this mod way back when was pure boredom. Formatted my extra SD and popped the sucker in. Haven't stopped since. There's still plenty of things that need to be worked on, but just the idea of a game designed with balance and competitive play in mind makes me hard.

T=Tool A=Assisted S=Super-play

Normally using an emulator and save-states, and slow-motion gameplay to pull off actions that are nigh impossible to do for a human during normal game-play. In other words, you've got to be pin-point accurate to pull off any of this stuff

Okay, stand by your baseless claim. At least now you aren't standing by it based on full ignorance anymore, just on ignorance.

You really think people can't execute that fast nowdays? I've seen regular Brawl fights with people never leaving the ground. Cancelling and hitstun will just make it more ridiculous.

Not in the case of a fighting game video specifically to show-case some combo's that you literally have to have 1-frame accuracy to pull off. At least, that's what the Smash and Street Fighter videos defined the term as.

Things in Project: M's codeset I hate:

1. I can't run and press A to get an item. I have to actually stop to get it now.
2. I hate that when you try to press Z-side sometimes it does work and you end up only shielding instead of dodging.
3. Lastly, I hate that you can't press anything sometimes when you get combo'd in the air. It makes it so you can't even 'comeback'. If you're up against someone who can combo well and for a while(like me) you end up getting a bunch of damage or even dying when you can't try your fullest.

#3 is my friend's problem. It'd be nice if I could remove these somehow.

Tbh that didn't really make sense in the first place.  How do you pick up an item whilst doing an attack?  Same applies to the air.  Not to mention it means that you have to be a little more careful if you want to get an item.  Items are very powerful if used correctly.

2. I hate that when you try to press Z-side sometimes it does work and you end up only shielding instead of dodging.

Then use L/R (assuming you're using a GC controller).  They're much more natural to use anyway since they're larger and in more of a position for the index fingers.

#3 is my friend's problem. It'd be nice if I could remove these somehow.

That's called hitstun, it only makes the game better.  Smash at its core is a fighting game.  An unorthodox one, but a fighting game nonetheless with party game elements.  As a result combos should be present.  You can't pull off combos without proper hitstun as Brawl so kindly demonstrates.  The lack of hitstun (amongst various other factors) also means matches tend to drag on for longer, as it's much easier to recover in Brawl and a match that drags because a character refuses to die because they can get out of hitstun and momentum cancel brings tedium.   Brawl is undeniably a slower paced and more defensively inclined game compared to Melee.  We're trying to make it more offensive again.  

Alternatively, you're friend can just learn to DI and crouch cancel.  There are ways good players can try to evade combos.  You're never completely helpless in Smash.  It just takes skill and good judgement.

@1-In vBrawl I was able to run then press A and get an item (doing 'DashAttack'). I've noticed in Project: M you can't do this. You just go right past it.

@2-I'm talking about using a Nunchuk and Wii Remote. If I were to use a GC Controller I never press Z to shield or dodge(I use Z for grabbing obv).

@3-Well, that is his problem. I never really have that problem cuz I know how to handle things. I could just let him read what you type for #3. I forgot about hitstun now that I think about it.

Wow im suprised of all the comments, I dont get how this is even an arguement, Project M craps on brawl, if I had to pick between regular brawl over project M at gamestop I would definitly buy project M, wow project M is just so much better than brawl i dont even see how people are arguing over it, simple I put the game in and all the old techniques from melee are back and you can now move quicker and do better combos, other crap to but forreal I wish everyone would just shut up, at the end of the day, project M is better than regular brawl, And some of you guys complain about stuff and glitches on project M that never happened to me yet so I dont see the problem.

Melee > Brawl

Melee + Brawl = Project M

Theres your answer project M is better than brawl

Post Merge: May 18, 2012, 04:20:55 PM
Oh not to mention that me and numerous friends who played ssb competitively stopped playing crappy brawl for a reason, it wasnt like melee it was worst besides graphics.
once project M came out we played it like everyday and even had some tournaments, project M brought crappy brawl back to life in my opinion

ICEN, I have a small suggestion:

Could you please consider including the "I think that..." expression in your vocabulary? Being affirmative all the time sure makes you sound very tough and determined and all, but Project M is still a Work In Progress. Any and all criticism toward the Project will be more helpful to the developpers than just just blindly crapping on vBrawl. Not to mention, I don't really think anyone really cares about how much you dislike vBrawl and idolize Melee. No offense.

I'm trying to say that as politely as possible, but being insulting towards vBrawl when a bunch of people in this community still appreciate playing it isn't going to get you far, and will most likely direct anger towards you.

I'm sure your input and criticism can be of much value, since you've been playing the game so much.

And that kind of applies to everyone here, actually. Giving your input and feedback (like what SmashClash just did) is very important in here, instead of telling us which of P:M or vBrawl you hate the most. The former is helpful, while the latter only stirs up drama and shows a sort of narrow-mindedness.

Thank you for your attention.

Also it can disrupt combos and such since when you grab items, your Fsmash, ftilt, and jab are changed and you also cannot grab, mostly not for the better. And don't get me started on Hammers.

Items tend to fall very low and at random spots, which makes it infeasible to predict where it will be. What can happen is that an item will spawn in front of you and you'll end up grabbing it, whether you like it or not since it spawned after you make your input.

In other news, I can make Capsules and carrier items NOT explode. Ever. Anyone wants to see that, make your voice heard.

I can also make ALL item spawn points obscenely high if you guys want. Once again, make your voice heard.

You do realize that brawl is just a video game right, not to sound like a [censored] but you guys get mad if I say brawl is worst then project m like brawl is a human being its just a game.

I know maybe there are some things that needed to be fix but it all comes down to one simple thing, put the game in and play it, do you like it or do you not. When I played it I liked it not because it was more like melee or more like brawl but because it was a mixture of both.

When I say brawl is bad im not meaning that literally of course brawl is good but I think if brawl keep the same graphics and everything but just had the fighting system that melee did it would have sold more.

Its like Gears of war 1, gears of war 2 and gears of war 3

I played all of them and played them non stop so when i say gears of war 1 was worst i dont mean IT WAS THE WORST GAME EVER, im just saying that the other or newer gears of war is better than the old one.

Of course brawl was good but if project M was complete in every way shape or form i think in MY OPINION it would be better.

When I played brawl it just felt to slow with the movements and everything.

I like games that have specail things that allow you to get better.

if you guys dont play other systems you wont know what i mean lol

gears of war, you can wallbounce, strafe, and do many things to GET BETTER

call of duty, you can increase sensitivity and other stuff to GET BETTER than other players who dont play on a high sensitivity

On melee you could wave dash L cancel moon walk and tons of other stuff to GET BETTER than the player who doesnt put in time to perfect those techniques

on brawl they took those out so now I dont have many techniques to learn to get BETTER than someone else

the only way to get better on brawl is to fight smart where as on melee you fight smart but you get all of those extra techniques to master and to learn to get better other than just the fighting part of things

is brawl bad no,
is melee bad no
is project m bad no

Im not saying one is bad
im saying i like ONE over the OTHER

Imagine this

its 2014 and gamestop is releasing two new nitendo games

one is called SSB BRAWL 2

the other is called SSB MELEE 2

If i seen that everybody that I know in real life would probably go with MELEE 2 especailly if the graphics are good and there are new characters, think about it there would be no reason to pick brawl because brawl takes out techniques, where as melee you do the same thing as you can on brawl but you get more techniques so i dont see how brawl would benifit you/


You guys need to realize one thing

Im not BASHING PEOPLE

Im bashing a video game, its a game, the video game SSBB DOES NOT HAVE FEELINGS
if i say halo is bad then halo doesnt cry

If i bash somebody or their post then i would see your point because they have feelings but if im bashing a game does it matter its not like brawl has feelings

At the end of the day you guys like what you like and me and my friends like what we like

btw im not trying to act tough, im not trying to sound like a [censored] either it only comes out sounding like that because when you read my post you decide how the words sound, maybe you guys think im yelling on this post

when i text it seems regular voiced because im the one typing the words so i know how there ment to be understood.

And it obviously isn't.

Typing in all caps doesn't help either.

Um everything I said was fact, or was I lying about no dashing L cancling and other crap in brawl.

Maybe you should put your brawl in and try wave dashing because you cant, looks like fact to me.

Okay, listen, fact master. I don't care if what you said are facts or not, just don't add insults in-between, as that [censored] will cause what is happening right about now, which is, random havoc. Either watch your manners when posting your "facts" and respect others' "fact-less posts" or don't post at all, be it "facts" of life or not. You've been warned.

PS: What's planned to be done by the third demo?

All I can say is "a lot of stuff".  Since Demo 2 only came out a month ago, Demo 3 won't be for a looooong time.  But I will say that there's going to be some stuff that may blow people's minds.

However, what I can say is that we'll be releasing a patch for Demo 2 (Demo 2.1 if you may) fairly soon which fixes numerous glitches in Demo 2, as well as a couple of cool surprises.  

On a side note, we've reached 40,000 downloads ;D

I honestly like brawl the way it is, better than melee. Melee was really fun and I never really lost, but It isn't as fun as brawl when I know I don't have to be faster than my opponent (which I generally am), but just have to be -better- than them.

But kudos to people who are making brawl fun for themselves, do what you enjoy.

So uhh! Hiya! Kinda dropping in to leave my thoughts and stuff. Oh, and sorry ICEN. I didn't really read your rant there. But I'm sure it wasn't directed at me, so I'll leave you and whoever that's for to read it...

Anyways, I gotta say, I LOVE Project M! Me and my friend sat down and played a good few hours the other day, and the changes are really fun! As far as each SSB has gone, I've always liked them for their own merits. But being able to see a giant-scale project like this come SO FAR is awesome! Being able to play with Brawl characters in a Melee syle on N64 stages is exactly what I envisioned from even before Project M was announced! It's a dream come true!

As for as the characters go, I enjoy Lucario the most! I've always found found him a bit slow for my tastes, so being able to run around and combo with him like a berserk Fox is very fun! The change I like least is Pit. Not because it's bad, or anything. I just don't know what to do with him since is forward-b is gone. Snake and Charizard are pleasant surprises, and seeing Sonic NOT spin in some of his Smashes was the best surprise EVER.

In all honesty, I'd love to see the entire game get retooled like Lucario. Not "combo systems" or whatever, but just, "changed." It'd be pretty cool. Just me, though.


Anyways, I gotta say. Good job, keep up the good work! I look forward to when it's completed!

Anywho, got to try 2.1, and I noticed something odd: the computers wavedash.

Was that.... uh.... intended? I thought it was pretty interesting. XD

Also, Ness actually used his PK Thunder as an attack, which kinda surprised me since the computer almost never does that. Just some AI quirks I found entertaining.

Also also, I'm in love with the Skyloft stage. Yeah.

Oh, and Peach still seems to freeze. It's a shame since she's my main and I wanted to try her out, but oh well. /:

Check the changelist.  It was completely intended ;)  Furthermore, Captain Falcon, Fox, Falco and Wolf occasionally L-Cancel their aerials too.  AI in general is much better and more aggressive than before.

Ah, I figured. That's pretty awesome, it makes it so much more enjoyable to fight the CPUs.

Though Wolf tends to throw himself off cliffs, from time to time. XD

Hm, I wish I could, but whenever I pick Peach and try to load up a stage, I get a silent freeze. Happened with Demo 2 also, and I really don't know why.

Nope, that's a lie too, she works in Training. Guess it was just RTB's Luigi Peach that was screwing things up.

Anyway, got to try her and I love her, even moreso than her Brawl incarnation.

I mentioned that I love how Charizard plays, but playing Wolf also feels sooooooooo good.

I love how he plays, it's so great. So much more satisfying than regular Wolf. Especially that up smash.

And the dash attack? Yessssss. So much combo potential.

Peach is also pretty great, I've managed to chain a few down throws together and set up a few interesting combos. Good stuff, though the return of her floaty double jump threw me off. XD

I'd love to try P:M online at some point, though I'm really not that great. :af:


Title: Re: Your thoughts on Project M
Post by: G Lock on May 27, 2012, 03:33:19 PM
Project M 2.1 is has really made playing project M more interesting now.
Having the AI's able to dash during battle makes things feel more in the competitive mindset.
Since the AI's now dash back an forth its almost like they are the actual humans playing. I feel that since they now wave dash during battle it gives the AI's more chances to mindgame you.
I also love how some of the characters such as falco does the short jump B(gun) to keep opponents back.
Alot of the characters AI's actually do things that pros use during battle which is why its so interesting and fun now. Ya sometimes the AI will slip off the edge but its rare and now they don't always run strait at you sometimes they will stay back or run at you then wave dash back.

I'm loving wolf right now. I have a combo with wolf that is a instant kill if the opponent is at 85% or higher some opponents can be less in %
His changed dash attack I also love because its a mixup that puts them behind you and they fall directly into combo position.

Try this combo out with wolf its usually a instant KO on opponents at 85% or higher.

Grab, the throw the opponent in the opposite direction, hurry up and run at them before they hit the ground or just as they hit the ground and do your Down B(Shine),
After you do that short jump and do your OVER B attack which will instant KO them if you hit them with the end of the attack.

If you want to make it shorter you can just run at someone do your DOWN B then short jump and do your OVER B and this will also KO them, Grabbing just makes it easier

You can add a OVER Air ATTACK (the direction your facing) before the combo for more hits but you have to hit them up close with it because if you hit them with your claw it will knock them to far away, when they fall down grab them and finish the combo

PICK FOX as your opponent its works easiest with him.
I havn't played with every character yet because I've been training with wolf because my captain falcon doesnt work for some reason, HE NEVER WORKED I THINK THE DISK IS SCRATHED IDK?
Dont forget wolfs best technique is his down B shine attack because you can jump out of it to combo up with more attacks.

HERE IS ANOTHER SECRET WELL I figured this out dont know if you guys know about this with wolf. Ive only tested this on final destination.

If you are hanging off the edge of final destination fall of the edge just about 1inch down and do your over B you will go through the platform and can actually hit opponents like this or cross people up.

Sonic: D-smash, Fair, Nair, N-special does tricks on hit
Lucario: F-tilt, U-smash, Nair, D-Special, Bair
Wolf: U-smash, dash attack, run
Toon Link: D-tilt, U-smash, F-smash, Nair
Charizard: jab, f-tilt, d-tilt, S-Special, D-special, U-throw
Ike: D-smash
Wario: F-Smash, D-Smash, Bair, Dair, S-Special
Snake: U-tilt, F-smash, Crawl Tilt, Nair
Pikachu: Bair
There's more that I can't think of right now


Title: Re: Your thoughts on Project M

Fox: Wait animation. Its the same as in Melee/N64.
Ganon: His run, Forward Tilt, Up-Smash i believe
Snake: Side Smash, I think his Air-N A attack (Hits 4 times in vBrawl, 3 times in P:M)
Pit: Side B, Up B

Title: Re: Your thoughts on Project M
Post by: G Lock on May 28, 2012, 01:15:43 AM
Ya if they make a level 10 then need to make it really good because people will always say just make one more level and if that goes on you'll have a level 23 ganon running around lol.

One thing I would like to see from the AI is them spacing. What I mean by that is sort of how falco is now programed to short jump his laser shots to keep you away.

But if you can do this with other AI's that would be good you would just have to find out which aerial moves are best when short jumping at your opponent to keep them back with each character so the AI can use that spacing move until they get in on the opponent then they would combo.

Take captain falcon for example, When I fight my friend 1v1 I use his basic A aerial attack to space with. That is the move where cap swings two kicks. It would be pretty cool seeing the AI of captain falcon using this to keep me back even if I ain't near him he would do it while jumping around just to keep me away.

But ya I like that some characters such as fox,falco,wolf will short jump with their guns because it makes it harder to get in on them and now since the AI's wave dash a dash dance sometimes the overall AI is now more human like since they use the techniques humans use.

If they can find out the spacing moves of each character and program the AI to use that move to get in on opponents or keep them back that would be pretty damn cool.

Level 10 = Diskusting Jk


Title: Re: Your thoughts on Project M
Post by: SiLeNtDo0m on May 28, 2012, 01:58:24 AM
Not really necessary.  We just need to make the AI better (i.e. Levels 1 to 9 will be better).  I mean the current AI changes are already pretty cool and they were just done by one person over the space of about a month.  As time goes on, it will only get better.

As for changes, the changelist is huge.  If we wanted to get right into the little changes, we'd be here forever.

Yes we are going to make them stronger in offense and aggressiveness.
This WILL come at the cost of their unrealistic reflexes however.

Sooner or later, we'll find out what makes the AI bully human players and change that.

Also SSE can be modded. No one has the patience to do so outside of texture hacks however.

The only character my friend said he thought needed fixed was bowsers left and right dash.
When you dash with other characters left to right they turn and it looks umm proper? IDK how to explain it just pick bowser and dash left to right really fast.

When bowser does it he looks a little awkward and gimp. Im talking about dash dancing not the wave dash. It might not bother you guys much but it feels and looks kinda gimp when you play with bowser and do that

I have to agree with LC on this one. It's pretty clear the people who loved Melee are more than biased, and just like how Brawl was compared to Melee, when Sm4sh gets around it will be compared to how it's not like Melee instead of being judged on it's own merits, like it should be.

In a worst case scenario, it would be compared to Project M.

Putting the off-topic aside, I still haven't played Project M. Partly due to laziness, and partly because I dunno what the best method for using it is. Riivolution and the like.

-and the main reason I don't use Riivolution is because I kept having problems with it. .-.

But all of these techs and balancing sure does make it look interesting :P

Definitely looking forward to it, can't wait until the cast is finished. Also, based on a few v2.5 matches I've seen, it looks like Marth is finally going to be back to his Melee self 100%. v2.1 Marth kinda disappointed me.

Post by: Szasz on October 26, 2012, 08:44:51 PM
A PAL version will be done, but not for a long time.

What's wrong with a comparison between sm4sh and Project:M? The question is going to be inevitable whether or not the new game offers more and is therefore worth spending money on. Sm4sh is guaranteed to have better graphics, but I know of no announcements concerning any details, save for the thought that there won't be oodles of new characters. Will they even have the massive sound track brawl had? The fact that they admitted balance issues due to a large roster suggests more attention will be put towards polish, which is good, but just how polished will it be?

I doubt the melee comparison will be brought up as much. People already know what direction the series is being taken in now, so they won't be surprised and thus outraged.

P.S. I severely dislike melee. I never think to myself when playing project:M that "I could just go play melee." Melee is flawed and outdated. Project:M fixes various frustrations, as a sequel ought to.

Post by: LC-DDM on October 28, 2012, 07:18:58 PM
We said Smash4 being compared to MELEE, not Project M.

Also that may be how sequels work, but Smash does NOT work like a regular sequel, so drink a jar of obvious oil.

And really, the comparisons won't end. Trust me, by the time the Wii 2 gets hacked, there WILL be a Project: M2. 'cause, you know, it's apparently the only game worth playing in the series.

Lot's of characters tweeks, new stages, crew mode, audio fade, being able to use Japanese letters, as well as today it was announced that demo 2.5 will be released on the 28th.

Oh and the dev team is teasing 2 new characters on top of squirtle and ivysaur. My money is on Samus and Zero suit samus, but that's just me, might end up being Meta Knight for all I know.

Awhile back the Project M team was trying to get Roy working as his own slot, so speculation would lead it to a non-clone version of Roy being made by them. Others think it could be Mewtwo, though honestly I haven't a clue if they still plan on implementing it at all at this point.

Small differences =/= Original. And who the Hell cares if Dr. Mario was higher on the Tier List than Mario was in Melee?

as for pichu... its cute.   :af:
That is a very unintelligent argument. Pichu had potential for a great "glass canon" playstyle. But it's just that Pichu failed to do so. Those who played as Pichu for a long while might have figured out ways to use Pichu efficiently. But other than those players, Pichu just sucked.

I used to main both of them, but now I don't.  that's why i brought it up.  i still wish they were back.  Sakurai better not remove anyone else unless its 3rd party

EDIT: I have high doubts that the next PM'd character will be Yoshi.  I accidentally accessed all characters and (as i thought) they can still wavedash with their brawl moveset except for yoshi.  He uses the same air-dodge physics as Brawl, it must require additional coding or something but I still doubt him in 2.5

I'm loving 2.5, I love the highlights. I also noticed changes with Falcon, his falcon punch always you to turn at any time, I think. SZS's Down-B on an opponent causes her to T- pose for me. But that's just a small issue. Everything else is near perfect. And I love the new SSS. Great work Project M!

Post by: Gamma Ridley on December 29, 2012, 07:27:54 PM
Yeah, 2.5 is pretty cool so far. Ivy is definitely my favorite "newcomer" from this build. Dat Solarbeam.

I'm trying to like ZSS, but it's a bit hard for me to do anything when I keep killing myself. It almost seems to me that her Up B is rendered useless, since she falls so fast. That's probably just my poor reflexes, though.

Haven't played with Squirtle much yet, though he's a bit tough for me to handle as well.

Ike is... meh, to me, but he's always been meh for me. He almost feels downgraded from the previous build, but maybe that's a good thing because he was insane last time around. I like the aesthetic changes to his Neutral B, though.

In all though, Charizard remains my favorite. Though Pit and Wolf come pretty close.

I can also finally almost handle Falco again. Yay.

Also, was there any reason to remove a majority of the stages from the selection...? And can I get them back? Because... I want them back. :|

Tip: If you use ZSS's Up-B quickly enough after a jump, you'll get a very significant boost in height. This goes for the double jump too. :3

Who do you most enjoy out of the four new characters (Ivy, Squirtle, ZSS and Diddy)?

What are some of the major/minor changes that you really like about P:M (whether it be the characters, new SSS, recolours, engine fixes etc)?

Which character(s) do you main?

Post by: Shun_One on January 01, 2013, 10:19:08 AM
I'll be more in depth at Smashmods later on (after I spend a little more time with it)

Zero Suit is my most enjoyed of the newcomers. In-fact, my bro pulled off a D-air-to-death combo on DK at Skyloft.

Major stuff: the engine fixes. Game feels so much better.
Minor stuff: the recolours. Addressing some of the problematic colors is a great idea. I hope you guys plan to do more.

Mains: Fire Emblem

Ivysaur (I switched to main her from Ness and Lucas), she's really easy to learn

Post by: Ninka_kiwi on January 02, 2013, 05:01:02 AM
As stated already my new favorite character is definitely Ivysaur. I always thought he had awesome smashes in brawl, but had garbage specials, now I see that it has been remedied and he is much more interesting to play.
As for changes, I'm digging the new character select screen, as well as the 3 frame delay fixing as that was what was really holding M from feeling like melee, I can say now it's my favorite smash game, and it's not even done.
Finally my mains are Ike, Toon Link, and Wolf at the moment (Working on Lucario and Ivysaur)
I just like how each character feels.


Title: Re: Thoughts on Project M? -Demo 2.5 released!
Post by: Gamma Ridley on January 02, 2013, 08:38:06 PM
I love the new Ivysaur, but if I had to pick a favorite, I'd go with Squirtle. He's the one I've been using the most, and mostly because of Bubble. Short hop + Bubble + Down Grab or Up Smash is one of my favorite short chains to pull off with him. So good.

My main is still Charizard, though. The fact that I love the Pokemon the most of all the characters makes me kind of wish the Pokemon Trainer was back in, but then that means they wouldn't have their individual Down Bs, which would render it kind of pointless... eh.

The thing I like most is the amount of aesthetic changes to things like graphics and animations. They may be small changes, but they really change the look and feel of the game, even for the characters who were recloned.

Post by: _Data_Drain_ on January 04, 2013, 08:55:54 AM
So what I'm reading here is characters being recloned... why, exactly?
Because everything has to be just like Melee!

...

I find it ironic. In Melee. People whined about clones. In Brawl, they changed them quite a bit... Now people want clones back to what they were...

Personally. I think if the clone engine ever gets cracked. It would be neat to have both versions of clones. Like... Holding R button changes the move set. So you have the choice to either play the character just like Melee. Or a fixed up Brawl version of the character, to better fit P:M. (Or in Ganon's case, make him more like the LoZ version.)

This would even be good for those who don't like the direction some characters were changed to. (I'm looking at YOU Lucaryu... Some people liked normal Lucario more.)

But, I do realize this would be a LOT to balance out... So even with the Clone Engine, it most likely wouldn't happen.

It's more along the lines of the competitive community [censored]ing that their favorite melee mains don't work exactly as they ought to. While characters like Lucas and Ness that are pretty similar have become drastically different in their execution moveset wise, characters like Ganon and Falco have been reverted back to their cloneness as they were better that way.Try playing Ganondorf in brawl, then try him in melee. In melee he is awesome to play as, and in brawl he feels sluggish and unrefined. As far as I know though, no other characters besides those two were brought back to clone status.

It's got high start-up time and predictability. Shield, spot dodge, roll, or just whack him out of it in the 5 hours it takes for him to start spinning and get to you.

Start-up's not as slow as you're making it out to be.  It's considerably faster than it was in vBrawl.  It's the endlag that you should watch out for.  Unlike 2.1, he can no longer instantly cancel his HA on hit with a special.

I find sonic's homing attack really overpowered because you can just keep spamming it.

Are you playing against terrible people?  It's not OP in the slightest.  Honestly anyone that's outclassed by HA spamming should be deemed a terrible player because it's a horribly ineffective strategy.  It's like getting beat by Kirby Down B spam.  HA works best as a mix-up and gimping tool I find.  It wrecks spacies.

Spoilered cause reasons.

I have to be honest. I'm disappointed with the attitude that the Top Tier characters of Melee absolutely had to be as they were in Melee for Project M in order for any balancing to be done. I see that as completely non-sequitur to balancing.

All you're basically doing is buffing the rest of the characters with in order to bring them to the level of Melee's Top Tiers potentially. You don't need the Top Tiers to be as they were in Melee in order to do that. The recloning of Ganondorf and Falco in particular are what struck a chord with me on this.

I would've preferred that the re-cloned characters be given new things to make them different from their originals in Melee, but I can already tell that's simply not going to happen. That's called regress, not progress.

Call me a whiner or whatever, but you know I'm right.

Like I said though... The issue should be left alone. Until perhaps CE progress has been made...


THEN you could make versions of Falco, and Ganondorf that differ from the Melee versions... Without getting rid of the Melee clone versions.

As I said before, they could be selected in a manner similar to Zero Suit Samus. Holding R button while selecting them... This would be sorta like some Mugen characters. When you hold start while selecting them, you get an alternate move set.


...But then again. Perhaps this is a terrible idea. Since it would need additional balance...

Also, IF we ever get the clone engine working, we wouldn't really want to waste the limited amount of instance slots on different versions of the same character.

I do like some of the things that have been done, such as with Lucario and Pokemon Trainer's Pokemon so far, but that one fact, the fact the top tiers will be exactly as they were in Melee, as well as the recloning of Falco and Ganondorf, bothers me.

At first the reason was because it was being made to play exactly or almost exactly like Melee, but that bias has more or less passed. I'm over that now. I can think more objectively about Project M as opposed to say...a year ago.

I just wish they you guys would declone the characters further, by giving them their Melee stats, but giving the characters (the clones in particular) new things to play with, like new, creative moves that could fit into the play environment, a new special or two, or maybe even a brand new Final Smash?

I just like seeing creativity from people. You guys have been doing plenty of that with other characters, but the lack thereof on Melee's clones that still reside in Brawl disappoints me.

Thing is, Ganondorf and Falco have been given all the good attributes they had in both Melee and Brawl, and where one attribute fits better in the overall playstyle or not.
That's the reason why even though a lot of Ganon has been changed to Melee stat wise, things like side B and certain animations have not.
Same goes for Falco, but a lot less has been kept from Brawl due to most of his Melee attributes outweighing his Brawl ones.

You call of us being blindsighted, but you do nothing to respond in value about it. I mean, what? What is there to discuss that, in your eyes, would see relevant? I mean, far from me to imply that only discussions inside the P:M-specific forums can be taken seriously... but that's what it feels like, at times.

Also, IF we ever get the clone engine working, we wouldn't really want to waste the limited amount of instance slots on different versions of the same character.

Soooo... Roy's not making an appearance? Or is he? 'cause, see, this is what I mean. You get clones on P:M - that's fine... as you explained, they're a mix of the best attributes of Melee and Brawl - but where does Roy stand? Do we get Marth with the same treatment Mario had? Do we actually get Roy as a seperate character? Does he even get his own moves or just stay Marth's wingman?

The code has been removed in the 2.5 demo release in case you hadn't noticed already (not sure if you have played 2.5).

It has been discussed to death, and the answer is and will always be the same.
They have been 'recloned' due to balancing, one of the key things driving this mod.

And you could for example discuss why certain stages are in Project M and why some aren't, or the fact that the audio now fades after the game being left idle for more then three minutes.

I was more referring to having two Falco's or two Ganon's in the game.
If Roy ever gets in a working state, he'll probably be rebalanced to be more viable.
Whenever or not he gets decloned in the process is something that will happen if necessary for balance sake (which will probably happen on more than one occasion, seeing as Roy wasn't exactly top or high tier material).

I can't play it. No PAL release yet.

And before you say "just... get your own copy of US Brawl", it's not as easy as it sounds, and I don't want to betray my region. Personal preference. I mean granted, the people who know me out here know how much I love "Melee", but that doesn't mean I won't try this sooner or later. It's just... I prefer it to be a PAL release, if any. We almost always get the Montreal Screwjob for things.

With that said, I actually thought it was a modification of the smashbros_sound.brsar itself, and not just a code. Since, well, P:M takes heavily from Melee and Melee had japanese voiceovers regardless of region, so...

The only thing I only have an issue with is the Castlevania Stage. Not so much the stage itself, but the fact people - most prominent example being IGN - think P:M inserted it into the game when... one could already do that before. I mean, this is more of a to-may-to to-mah-to discussion, but like... I dunno.

Also, the cool new things, the single stock, the stage thing, the fadeout, that's all well and good. That's why I asked earlier in one of my posts here when those will be released for standalone use (and maybe for someone talented to... well, port to PAL because REASONS :B )

Yeah, but that's why I asked. I mean Roy was a clone in his way, how would he be handled knowing your previous statement of not wasting slots on different versions of the same character? Keeping in mind that there are people that enjoyed him thoroughly as well?

Thoughts on P:M?
I'm loving it. It gets 100x better with each release. Character viability is great, aesthetics are great, controls feel great... I could go on and on. I do agree with not balancing around spacies, but the PMBR should work on balance AFTER every char has a concrete design.

This mod is awesome. Good S*** PMBR.

What about the Top Tiers? That was another one of my big concerns. The fact they would be as good as they were in Melee makes me nervous. Wouldn't that mean they would be as nigh unstoppable as they were in Melee?

Spoilered for size

Fox for example, was the top dog, literally and figuratively in Melee. The majority of the time, if you're a Fox main, anyone who didn't use Fox in response would have a comparatively would have to work with more and more night superhuman efficiency to keep up the lower you go in the tiers. That's why I said that I think making the Top Tiers exactly as they were in Melee for the purpose of balancing, was a bad idea.

To, me, that's slant balancing. Basically you have the Top Tiers, who have the most weight because they are the highest on the list. Everyone in the S-Tier is a Top Tier character. There are -as of way late 2010- four characters in S-Tier. These four characters outweigh the rest of the characters on the proverbial "scale". The rest of the characters, as they are now, are having things added and subtracted to them in order for the scale to become perfectly balanced. The problem is, the Top Tiers, who are on the other side of scale, have had (as far as I am aware, I'm not Melee Veteran, and I didn't play Brawl Competitively) little to no change in their "weight". With the addition of Brawl Characters, and the subtraction of those no longer there, things change, sure, but all the same, that's basically what I think the Project:M Team is doing.

In other words. It's not true balancing. It's only fattening up whoever isn't in S-Tier as needed.

That's all.

EDIT: Adding more...

Another thing that bothered me that is mentioned in a few of the character's profiles is the fact that some characters had their animations changed back to their Melee incarnations... That seems like as though you tried to regress an already finished, fully illustrated picture to it's sketched form. Why bother?

The animations are namely an aesthetic thing, while they define the attacks the characters do, changing them back to their Melee forms shouldn't be a requirement. It seems like a poor choice in artistic taste when at least two or more people on your team have the ability to create amazing animations, only to waste them on perfectly restoring the animations to their Melee appearance. Why bother? Why not improve upon the Brawl ones by making them better rather than regressing them to their Melee forms? It seems to give off the feel of a mindset where "The animation is from Melee, so it is better!" This isn't the case with all the animations of the characters who have had  animations restored to Melee form, I know, but still.

First of all, people seem to assume that the top tier consists of borderline broken and (almost) unbeatable characters.
That's simply not true, as they are beatable in a higher degree than MK is in VBrawl.
And especially in Project M, where characters are not only buffed, but where also some if not most of them recieved tools to counter the shenanigans the top tier can throw out.

As for the animations, sometimes, the Melee animations are just better, and also contribute to the characters stats in terms of visual indication.
It has nothing to do with lacking creativity or regressing, but with balancing and matching the visuals with a characters stats (read: the overall feel of a character).

No because every other character has been improved.  It's that simple.  There are more characters that can fare well against them and counter them.


Spoilered for size

Fox for example, was the top dog, literally and figuratively in Melee. The majority of the time, if you're a Fox main, anyone who didn't use Fox in response would have a comparatively would have to work with more and more night superhuman efficiency to keep up the lower you go in the tiers.

In other words. It's not true balancing. It's only fattening up whoever isn't in S-Tier as needed.

You know I do find it somewhat amusing how you seem to think you have such a broad idea on how balancing a game works when you yourself just admitted that 1) you're not a competitive player of any sort and 2) you don't actually design Smash games yourself.  Honestly you're making it seem as though we're incompetent developers.  As though we don't know the games that we're redesigning.  That is not the case.  

First off, let me just highlight the fact that this first and foremost is a competitive mod.  Despite the fact that Project:M can appeal to many, it primarily appeals to competitive Melee players.  The top tiers of Melee are what defined the metagame.  They are whom these competitive players use and enjoy the most and they're a huge component of what made Melee the fast paced game it is.  As a result changing them whilst we're still developing the rest of the characters and while the metagame is still developing would only alienate members of our primary target audience.  

Also to address your end point, tier lists don't necessarily reflect the balance of the game.  Tier lists reflect tournament results.  There is always going to be a top tier and a bottom tier.  What defines balance is how much worse the bottom tiers are comparative to the top tiers.  Everybody in P:M is about as good as the top 7 or 8 characters of Melee at the moment, and pretty much all are viable tournament choices.  Of course, we still need to observe how 2.5's metagame develops and see how each character fares but at the moment we're in a pretty good position.  


Another thing that bothered me that is mentioned in a few of the character's profiles is the fact that some characters had their animations changed back to their Melee incarnations... That seems like as though you tried to regress an already finished, fully illustrated picture to it's sketched form. Why bother?

animations are namely an aesthetic thing, while they define the attacks the characters do, changing them back to their Melee forms shouldn't be a requirement. It seems like a poor choice in artistic taste when at least two or more people on your team have the ability to create amazing animations, only to waste them on perfectly restoring the animations to their Melee appearance. Why bother? Why not improve upon the Brawl ones by making them better rather than regressing them to their Melee forms? It seems to give off the feel of a mindset where "The animation is from Melee, so it is better!" This isn't the case with all the animations of the characters who have had  animations restored to Melee form, I know, but still.

This right here is completely wrong.  Laughably so infact.  Animations are changed back to their Melee incarnations for various characters because it affects positions and timings of hitboxes as well as interrupts for attacks.  Most importantly, they're remade to capture the essence of the character from Melee.  They're not remade because they're better or worse than Brawl's animations (well, that's debatable), therefore stating it's a "regression" is incorrect.  Heck if anything it's a very primitive way of thinking of it.  

Not to mention there are far more custom animations in the codeset than remade ones.    

You know what Velen I'm curious, just how much of P:M have you actually played?  I would really like to know.

EDIT: ds22 basically said what I was saying but more concise.

Consider my concerns about those things alleviated then. That's just how it seemed to me.

I have not played P:M yet, but that's mainly cause I'm waiting for the first full release, more than anything else. When all characters will be playable. I know that's a long ways away, but I would rather have the full package than just a part of it.

Ease of installation is another concern for me. I don't have USB Gecko, I've never been able to play a full match of Brawl using Riivo (it would freeze for reasons I couldn't discern), and I can't use Dolphin for [censored] cause it won't run on my lappy.

Guess who got to play Project:M today?

So far, things look and feel nice but some of the characters just feel and play in too clunky a manner for my taste.

Then there's the Hitstun. The [censored] hitstun.

The hit stun is ridiculous. Some characters literally, when hit at a certain percentage, will be entirely unable to recover in situations where they would normally be able to. Perfect example is when I played with Ganondorf. He got hit an an attack at one point, and he was sent reeling off the stage beyond the point of no return. This has happened with other characters several times too.

It's nice so far, but it really needs some fine-tuning.

Well, Velen. Not that I would know, since I haven't played P:M, and it's been a long time since I played Melee...

But was the hit stun pretty much like that in Melee? If so... They most likely won't fix it. Since that's how Melee was.

Also, about some characters being clunky... In most fighting games. There's always a character that is. And isn't right for each player. A character to you might not play well. But to another player, the one you like might not suit their tastes.

Stuff like the hitstun was happening at pretty low percentages. It's way too much. I wasn't even anywhere near the ledge, nor had that much damage, and that happened.

Fun Fact: Hitstun constants in Melee and Brawl are one and the same.

The key difference is that Melee and PM prohibits cancelling hitstun via air dodges/attacks/actions unless there's some sort of external interference.

On a side note, Smash 64's hitstun is quite a bit higher and more ridiculous.

I wish they hadn't done that. Some of the character's moves in Brawl could influence their momentum and allow them to survive longer by using said attacks out of hitstun. Now that's gone. Not everyone is as good as Melee tournament-goers were at utilizing DI on hit. Plus, allowing it would add more to each character's ability to survive. It was a step in the right direction to add that feature in Brawl.

I honestly see them regressing the game that way as a case of "it's better this way because Melee." I see it as unfair for the player to have to suffer that way. Watching at certain percents as they can literally no longer do anything to help their character keep from falling down to the blast zone. That's ridiculous IMO. Air Dodges I can understand, but not allowing a character to attack at all during the entire duration of the hitstun is just...dumb.

It's basically like "I hit you, now watch yourself die, foolish mortal".

This can even happen in situations where a character would normally be able to recover from that in Brawl. I think that's something Brawl did right.

Sounds like you're going through an adjustment phase.
Also the decisions we made on that was more than the fact that it was like that in Melee.

On a side note, the reason certain characters feel different is llikely because of how inputs are handled.

PM has no 10 frame buffer like Brawl, and also doesn't have Brawl's input lag of 0-2 frames, so characters WILL SEEM TO control awkwardly for the first few moments until you adjust to the lack of buffer and input lag.

It has nothing to do with adjustment, EY. I don't actively play Project:M. Today was the first time I've played it. I've also played Melee before.

-and I believe that making the hitstun that way is unfair to the player in situations where in Brawl, they would've normally be able to recover. That was a step forward in gameplay, making the way it was in Brawl, where some moves can influence their momentum while in-flight out of hitstun after a certain amount of time to increase their ability to survive when used, rather than having to wait the entire duration of the hitstun, when it's already too late to recover. Lucario's Brawl version of his D-Air is a perfect example of this, and so is Bowser's F-Air.

So what exactly beyond the fact that it was that way in Melee is the reason for making that way? I see no reason to make it that way other than "it was that way in Melee, therefore it must be that way" because the Project M team is prominently made up of Melee veterans, whom I bet weren't too happy with the changes in Brawl.

So yes. I am basically saying you guys made it that way on preference rather than anything actually concrete. Cause it sure seems that way.

Don't take this the wrong way. I had fun today, playing Project:M, but all the same, the hitstun as it is, is ridiculously punishing, the guy sitting next to me who was playing agreed.

The change was made to focus more on combos and kills, and less on recovering, thereby contributing to a faster paced gameplay.
It has nothing to do with 'regressing back to Melee', as it is more to help the game feel less stalling in terms of kills and the like.
So you may think Brawl's ability to cancel hitstun was a step forward, but for a game that tries to emulate the core of Melee's gameplay, it wasn't, and therefore the option was removed.

Also as a side note, we not only have Melee players in our backroom, but we also have actual Brawl players helping on Project M, so the notion that we would be an all exclusive club of Melee veterans is just plain wrong.


Title: Re: Thoughts on Project M? -Demo 2.5 released!
Post by: Velen on February 01, 2013, 07:42:23 AM
There's the key phrase: "A game that tries to emulate the core of Melee's gameplay." You just contradicted yourself right there, whether you will deny it or not. In order to make the game emulate the core of Melee's gameplay, you have to regress the game's engine back to Melee features. Ergo, the notion that it has nothing to do with "regressing back to Melee" is wrong.

I think you intentionally misconstrued the meaning of my words as well. There's a difference between "Melee players" and "Melee veterans", DS, and I believe the majority, if not all of you are the latter phrasing.

After playing Project:M yesterday, I can already tell you that you guys have greatly succeeded in that in your goal. However, the notion that putting less focus on recovering contributes to faster paced gameplay is preposterous and plain wrong. Recovering is a large part of surviving in Smash, and it has been since SSB64. If your definition of faster gameplay is:

"Defeating your opponents will be faster since the hitstun will eventually make it impossible for them to recover in a situation where a character would normally be able to do so."

-only then would that suffice. After playing Project:M I can tell you there is no correlation between fast gameplay and less focus on recovering. Because as soon as it got down to two people, gameplay slowed way down. It felt just like we were playing Brawl again.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

Post by: ♤♡◇♧ on February 01, 2013, 08:57:33 AM
You keep insinuating that trying to emulate Melee's gameplay is a regression.
That is simply not true.
Just because Melee is the older game, doesn't mean it's lesser than Brawl, might it be with hitstun or something else (otherwise we wouldn't even have Project M to begin with).

And I'm not misconstruing your words here.
The Melee players in my post and the Melee veterans in yours are one and the same, it's just the phrasing that's different here, nothing else.
And again, we also have Brawl 'veterans' in the backroom, so your argument that we would all be Melee 'veterans' is just plain wrong.

And recovering, while part of Smash, isn't the most important thing you try to make of it.
Limiting hitstun cancelling does indeed contribute towards faster gameplay, as you have less options to stall in the match, thereby increasing the pace of a match.

Also (and this may be a contributing fact towards your gripe with hitstun), there is something called 'Spikes', which make a return from Melee.
This in essential in an angle range that, when hit by, sends you down with a slight angle (I.E. Ganon's and C. Falcon's DAirs).
Then there is also something called 'Meteors', which have been in Smash since the 64 days.
These, like spikes, also send you downwards when hit by.
The key difference however is that while you are in hitstun when hit by both, you can cancel the knockback of a meteor, thereby giving you more lenience in terms of recovering, while a spike cannot be cancelled.
This might be a contributing factor to your reduced ability of recovering, as Brawl only had meteors.

All in all, the fact you don't particularly like a change doesn't necessarily mean it's a regression of gameplay, nor that it needs to be changed / fine-tuned (and trying to twist my words, or saying that you bust my bubble doesn't really help to bring over your cause either).

That's funny... because that's exactly what everyone seems to think. Melee being more than Brawl even though it's older.

I speak of this not in a negative light... but the way I see it, there could be at least five different games of Smash, and they would all still be compared to and considered worse than Melee simply because the gameplay wouldn't be a direct sequel of Melee. Don't get me wrong, it's all well and good that you're doing this... but considering the path of this mentality, and where it's headed, would I be wrong to say future Smash games will have their own installment of P:M? (Where hacking is applicable, of course.)

That doesn't mean much, though. I'm pretty sure they didn't state what parts of development they would be involved in.
Not to mention, it's Nintendo we're talkin about here. Even if NB was in charge of the gameplay, if Nintendo wants the next SSB to be more casual-friendly, more random, more defensive and with little to no combo potential, NB will have to do with that directing line. And I doubt that Melee/P:M enthusists would be really pleased about it.

Another small question that I've been meaning to ask for a little while:
Who is in charge of writing character stuff on the P:M website?

There's a gross profanity to video game history in ROB's intro about "saving the entire video game industry", which ... might want to get fixed. it's been around for awhile now, actually.

Spikes and meteors have nothing to do with my gripe with hitstun. Nor have they really ever caused a problem for me, cause I usually am able to dodge them a lot of the time.

(Spoiler due to size.)

My gripe with hitstun canceling not being possible is when in situations where you're sent sailing through the air in a shallow arch, and end up performing a lateral flight all the way to your death with no chance to recover at all, whereas in Brawl, you would be able to recover from it. Especially when this happens so close to the center of the stage.

Example being this: I was playing as Ganondorf, against someone playing Dedede, and someone playing Luigi. I was at around 50-70%. Dedede sends me sailing through the air with his hammer, near the center of the stage, instead of recovering, I end up spiraling all the way to the blast zone below the stage, and I'm not even that far away from the ledge. If it were Brawl, I would've been able to recover and grab the ledge with his Up-B. That didn't happen due to the lack of hitstun canceling in Project:M.

Being able to recover out of hitstun in a situation like that isn't stalling a match, that's playing the game, and trying to survive longer to give yourself a better chance of winning the match.

-not to mention the majority of players who played Brawl transitioning to Project:M won't know how to cancel the momentum from a meteor.

Furthermore, I'm not implying Melee is lesser because it is older as you think I do. I'm implying there are a few things that Brawl did better than Melee. The ability to cancel hitstun being one of them, allowing players and characters to survive longer. That's not stalling the match, that's playing the game. You might argue "-but it takes less/no skill that way!". Guess what? Neither does going up and using a spike on someone who literally has no choice but to watch it happen due to hitstun.

I think you guys think of that ability to cancel hitstun as stalling because you wouldn't be able to defeat your opponent's as easily or quickly if it were around, so its a hinderance to you: the Melee veteran, who played competitively in Melee as well as just plain played it. So it looks to me more like personal preference rather than a calculated decision. It's a regression of gameplay because it hurts character survivability, and force the player into a frustrating situation where they are literally helpless and unable to help their character survive longer than they would otherwise be capable of.

Furthermore: those Brawl veterans are probably people who were veterans in Melee as well, so I think that the argument that all of you being Melee veterans to be quite a valid argument as well as a plausible truth.

LC puts it precisely how I feel a lot of the Project:M Dev Team's decisions are largely influenced. There is literally, as far as I see, no deviation at all from how Melee was aside from difference of stages and characters. The mentality of the dev team to me seems to be that Melee was the perfect Smash game, and that any deviation from what it was is a bad thing.

-if it would improve on what was wrong with Melee rather than reverting it back to everything Melee gameplay-wise, then I wouldn't be as critical as I am being of Project:M. As far as I can tell though. The team has no intention of doing any such thing. As far as I know: this mod that changes a big majority of the game is the teams vision of how they think Brawl should've been: a clone a of Melee with new characters, and not much else.

I'll play the game, sure, but I'm not about to praise the team for making decisions largely based on bias towards Melee.

I wouldn't put my "trust" on Nintendo to disregard Brawl's sales crushing Melee's with its "party-game" gameplay, especially in Japan. But to each their own, I suppose.

And okay. It's a popular "Nintendo" myth that Nintendo/the NES/SMB/ROB 'saved the entire video game industry", so that person probably believes he's completely right.
The NES only revitalized the declining American market, while Japan and Europe were perfectly fine back in the day, and would have resurrected the western market on the next gen anyways. ROB was meant to help the NES to do that, but didn't really do that much in the end.
It's not totally false, it's just about as much of a shortcut as saying that Hiroshima won WWII by itself.

@Velen
There things called DI, SDI, ASDI and DSDI, ever heard of them?
Because your argument that it removing hitstun cancelling hurts character survivability by that much is laughable.
And cancelling hitstun as soon as you enter it can indeed work stalling.

What's also laughable is that you keep using the 'Melee veteran' argument as a reason for why we would've removed hitstun cancelling.
We intend to keep, in accordance of the community, the best of all three Smash games, which favours most aspects of Melee (that the opinions of others who intend to play the game the fullest doesn't match with your opinion is up to you).
And while a lot of the backroom did indeed play Melee on a regular bases, it isn't 100%, and some even hail from the Brawl community (like TheReflexWonder, who made his fame in VBrawl with Wario and PT).
So again, your argument that the backroom is entirely made up of Melee 'veterans' is just plain wrong and uneducated.

And contrary to popular (and again, uneducated) believe, we do not think that Melee was a perfect game.
Melee, like most (if not all) games, has it's flaws.
That's why we aim at using the best elements from all three Smash games and combine them under one unified framework (thereby creating a game with tauntcancelling, wavedashing and DACUS all present).
We chose Melee as base due to the fact, while having flaws, wasn't as heavily flawed as VBrawl was, and to improve from there.
And while your opinion may differ from mine on what is to be called an improvement, the opinion of the many outweigh the opinion of the few, and in this case, your opinion belongs to the few.

But you are in your right to have an opinion about it and feel that it should be different.
What should be noted however is that the backroom doesn't operate on a one-tracked mindset that Melee was perfect, Brawl was [censored], and that it should have been a 1:1 clone of Melee + more characters.
It's not only wrong, but absurd as well to the point it's just mind-boggling to read.

Played Project:M earlier at the student lounge at the community college campus. The reviews from two of the guys playing were -and, I quote- "This is complete bull[censored]." They were both Melee players at one point...I'll get to why in a second, but I have a bug to report.

- On Fountain of Dreams, after Fox summoned the Landmaster, it suddenly shot up into the air and off-screen without warning, and ended with Fox getting stocked in the upper right corner of the screen. In another instance, the Landmaster was unable to fly up despite the platforms being semi-solid.

Onto why they called it bull[censored]. For some reason, there was input lag between pressing a button on the controller, even though there should not have been, but I'm going to chalk that up to the TV being the culprit.

Another problem they were having was that for some reason, the controllers in controller ports 1 and (I think) 3 were being generally unresponsive. They would press the jump button and nothing would happen, including on the second jump, and apparently things in general weren't working. I would chalk this up to the controllers, but I can't be sure.

We were using the Homebrew Full-Set.

@Velen
Using HD and widescreen TVs tend to produce some display lag, which can throw people off in terms of timing and input.

And while it seems that the Landmaster is indeed bugged (and will have to be fixed in a future release), the controller port issue however could be caused due to the Wii not properly reading certain files from the SD card, which can be fixed by reformatting the SD card (be sure to back up your files though).
Eight out ten times it fixes such problems.

@LC-DDM
I'm not sure, though if the demand for it is high enough, it could potentially be made available in the future.

If you were killed from the center of the stage as Ganondorf at mid-percent, you were doing something wrong. Something very, very wrong. The thing that first comes to mind would be the fact that you can't airdodge out of tumble in Project M, but uh... You would have had well over two seconds to just... Jump?

Other things talked about so far is that almost every character is getting tweaks, with Lucas, Sonic, Mario, Link, Ike, and Zero Suit Samus getting larger tweaks from what I could gather.

so 2.6 only adds meta knight to the roster?
well, better than nothing, btw, what version would supposedly become the final one? 4.0, 5.0, 200.0 ?

I doubt there'll ever be a final version. At best, the oh-so-advertised "Gold" version, which I assume has all the characters ready for use, as well as releasing the stuff used in the making of P:M to the public and a PAL release. I assume, anyway.

final does mean last after all, so willingly or not, there will be one xD
maybe it's not as good as they want it to be by then, bt it'll still be a final version.

so yeah, how's the team's motivation, with ssb4 being announced and stuff, did it increase the motivation, or lower it?

The fact that they only have 5 more characters left makes me think they are still going to work on it.
I suggest everyone try Demo 2.6 to see that they do still care quite a lot as there are some awesome changes.

So far, I haven't seen many changes for Version 2.6. I'd have to browse SmashBoards and play the game some more.

But I'd like to say this now...

The new Link Boomerang Animations are kinda bad, in my opinion.

I used md5sums to figure out which stages changed from Demo 2.5b. I don't know what's changed in most of them, except SSE Jungle (smaller) and Lylat Cruise (doesn't tilt.)

You're thinking as though there won't be any more character fixes after Gold, though, which I don't see happening.

Considering how P:M is, Gold would do said fixes the same way some fighters do their patches.

'cept you don't get an extra character by paying for it.

We're still very motivated.  I personally within the last week have done more animations within this space of time for P:M than I have for a long time.  There's still a lot of stuff we have in store for the fans

Are there any plans to fix up various animations that seem a bit odd? Like v2.6 Link's Boomerang throw for example.

SDo0m. I've got a question for you. How is Zelda countereable? I recently downloaded PM to play with some friends that only play SSBM, and while they handled the mechanics pretty quickly and started doing the things they did with Fox and Marth, they couldn't beat me as Zelda, believing her Side B was too.... Strong. How do you counter Zelda? Where's her downside, because even her A attacks are quite fast and strong.

Also, I found Toon Link to be underpowered. Where does his power lays to compensate for that weak Up B as recovery? I only played for 20 minutes or so, but I felt like asking for when I play again with them.

Correct me if I'm wrong because I haven't tried 2.6 yet, but I think I maybe have an answer to your question about Zelda.

Maybe she still suffers angle issues like in vanilla Brawl and maybe the original SSB Melee. So maybe the characters that can reflect projectiles like Fox's Down B, should be able to handle Zelda well.

I hope that answers the question about Zelda, correct me if I'm wrong.

Side B can be clanked with most attacks whilst it's still 'pulsing' is probably the main thing.  The other being that Zelda, despite being overall very good now, is still light, tall, floaty and slow and although teleport cancels help to alleviate her slow speed somewhat most characters overall have superior mobility compared to her.  Infact Fox and Marth in particular are actually two of her weaker match ups partially due to this reason.

As for Toon Link, he actually has a nifty trick with his recovery thanks to aerial glide tossing (you do an air dodge then a couple of frames later throw your item so it uses the same principle as Brawl's ground glide tossing).  You can aerial glide toss you bomb upwards then Up B into it to restore your Up B whilst gaining some distance.  Here's an idea of what I mean:

Project M - Toon Link Bomb Jump Guide (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S24m-1_WCnE#ws)

Though now generally aerial Up B serves more as a kill move (follow up after a DThrow at higher %).

Pik also textured that sexy beast.

And yes. The clone engine works almost perfectly with most characters.

Regarding public release of the CE...
it is a set of very complex codes which are completely safe in the way we work with it. Only a few people are capable of manipulating it safely, we don't want the public getting confused and start thinking that PM is harmful to your wii and/or save file in any way.

Turbo and everything will be in Project M 3.0

I'm cool with seeing the CE operational, even if it's very particular about how it behaves.

Also, cool to see Roy in BrawlProject M in an official capacity. His new moves look tight, especially that Double-Edged Dance.

Tell Dantarion to make 50 clones of himself, send that clone back into the past with the time machine he built 5 weeks ago, and send all 50 of those clones to the past in order to prevent the clone engine from taking so long to be made.  ;)  :laugh:  :D

The PMBR is a group of guys (and a few girls) that are really chill and fun to work with. The stuff they can do with Brawl is absolutely amazing. We work on a set timeframe, but it's pretty casual so I never feel stressed with anything I have to do.

Clone engine? Niiiiiiiiiice. Not surprised it won't be available to the public or anything, but I'm sure that'll come with time.

What I really want to know is how it works. Y'know, the real nitty-gritty stuff. I remember ds22 saying that it would require a lot of things to be moved around and that it would be nearly impossible, so I'm curious as to what changed.

Also Roy yay. But I'm more hyped for a certain purple psychic clone to show up.

It's one of the best models I've ever seen, I think.

This all makes a great deal of sense concerning the clone engine. Follow up-questions:

* By "perfectly", do you mean it isn't just some convenient exploit that can somehow handle one character? Several can be done?
* If yes to the last question, are more planned? I don't know if it's something you can answer, but it seemed vague enough of a question for it. A few PMBR members have said he is "the first CE character", but we want to know whether or not he's the last, too (although I doubt it).

By "perfect" I mean that it has almost no glitches or bugs. The code is extremely stable, and we can clone almost whoever we want. However, the coding is very specific and complex, thus why we haven't released it. Even I don't know how the codes work, and I personally can't make my own slot with a custom character.

At the moment we do not have any further new clone announcements, due to our limitations and current projects we are working on.

That's better news than I was expecting, actually. I'm not really concerned about the public release of the codes so much, but it's great that there aren't any barriers with making stuff. This includes projectiles and the like, right? (inb4 nothing is stopping Mewtwo now)

Kind of expected that, but thanks anyway. Sorry if I/we are kind of grilling you on this stuff. It's pretty darn exciting.

I think our CE depends on a lot of the general PM codes... Which is another reason we won't release it yet. It doesn't work with normal Brawl.
We don't want to cause a lot of people the frustration of crashes due to code and module errors.

This really isn't for me since I'll be playing P:M for as long as I play Brawl, but does that "yet" mean that adaptations are being made? I think a lot of people believe that the codes are and will be P:M exclusive.

It certainly looks impressive, but I have trouble understanding what exactly makes it so impossible for non-PMBR users to set it up. If Dant and ds22 have been working for years on it, they should be more than able to explain how they got it to work.

This in particular, I do not understand the logic of. CE =/= PM. If you released it separately, I doubt even half the users would associate it with P:M.

Besides, there's been other supposedly "dangerous" codes. They didn't seem to trigger such backlash in the overall community.

That does make a good deal of sense, at least once there's a version for vBrawl. I think what he's saying is that they will release and explain, but only once they make a version that doesn't need to run alongside other P:M codes.

That sounds pretty good, though. I figured that you meant other things went wrong and the character wouldn't play, or something messed up before then. It seemed pretty difficult to change the interface to have more characters (whether in the CSS, CSPS, BPs, result screen, etc), and then you still have things like SFX and other game modes. That code must be pretty darn comprehensive.

I'm going to guess it was a happy mistake that some of the code already in the PM framework just happened to be key components in getting the clone engine to work, as well as some of the other things like character modules and CSS stuff (like the way Zelda/Shiek and the Pokémon are separated).

Buuuut that's a guess, just based on how I read nano's post and what I've seen in PM.

(On an OT note, I would also guess that your current avatar comes from some of emperpep's work. I recognize that art style anywhere.)

I'm going to guess it was a happy mistake that some of the code already in the PM framework just happened to be key components in getting the clone engine to work, as well as some of the other things like character modules and CSS stuff (like the way Zelda/Shiek and the Pokémon are separated).

Buuuut that's a guess, just based on how I read nano's post and what I've seen in PM.
Then they could just release it with the part that somehow happens to work with it? Call it the "Clone Engine + Separated Pokemon" code or whatevs. I doubt people would really mind.
Unless they somehow managed to weave the CE into the very fabric of P:M, so that there is absolutely no way to have the CE without P:M. But then, even my limited knowledge of Gecko codes tells me that we'd be exiting out of the "happy mistake" domain and entering that of witchcraft. :P

(Also, that is correct. Glad to see a fellow fan of his/her art.)

Possibly? Part of my guessing at their reasoning behind it being so integral to PM is just looking at PM's GCT through Mewtwo's GCT Analyzer. It's just one huge chunk of over 4500 lines of code (whereas, say, Brawl Minus's code is broken up into sections that detail most of what goes on). I can only guess that the PMBR either has their own little tools that make it easier, use a common tool I am unaware of, or they have extreme coders that can read hexadecimal as well as Neo reads the matrix. And woven into the fibers of that impenetrable wall of numbers and letters are parts of the clone engine that could break or not work well if not stabilized by the other patches in the quilt. Or maybe the coders just don't want to release certain parts of their work, since it would probably ultimately be up to the coders themselves whether or not that gets released rather than the whole of PMBR.

But again, take that all with a grain of salt. This is speculation from someone whose knowledge of GCT code is limited to frankensteining other people's hexadecimal paragraphs and hoping to make a cohesive story out of it. I can't even put a PM Fox in a non-PM codeset without him t-posing or freezing because I don't know what they did to make him tick, let alone grasp this whole clone-engine thing.

Also, did I use enough metaphors? 8D

lol it actually just looked like most of the codes were unknown. has anyone tried matching known codes to that wall of text? (click edit, copy the code your looking for, find) i know dusty decompiled some of the codes that way but not all of them, theres obviously ones that won't be known till the coders want them to be. mewtwos gct analyzer or gct editor just condenses all the codes it can't read into a single paragraph. even the simple codes like stock modifier can sometimes toss it off balance because everyone can add different values to get different results.

I was wondering, has anyone done any custom Character select screens for brawl? And with this new clone engine does that mean essentially any character could be made and not have to take the place of an existing character?  Also how does the clone engine work? Say I wanted to put a psa over a character that they add via the clone engine like roy, would I just add the psa over his files like I have before or will I have to go through a different process?

It will be the same as modding other characters. The files will be named FitRoyXX if you put skins over our CE Roy.

Is there anyway I could go about adding additional copies of characters to puts psa's over them? I use Scott Pilgrim over Lucas, is it possible for me to add another lucas then add Scott over Lucas i added so I can have both?

I think what means is to ask is whether or not this is possible to do over the guys P:M is putting in. Like, putting in a Sephiroth PSA over Roy, for example, with SFX and all.

Exactly. I can, say, put PM Fox's fighter files and his .rel in whatever build I have, but that only goes so far without knowing the codes in the GCT that smooth out the kinks.

You're gonna need the codes and the .rels. You'll also need to set up the CSS with new CSPs, you'll need the BP's, and everything.

Yep 50 is the max, so maybe we could have 15 cloned slots? I have 49 slots currently with all the gimmick characters and transformations separated, but I would gladly replace those with PSA's.

wrong thread? I assume you ment to put this where its related.

but yes. edit a marth .rel to use knuckles's id and replace teh .rel. it still ahs to be named knuckles

and to keep this on topic, I havent played P:M for awhile, but I still love Pit. His Up smash to Side-B to Up-b is fun. Great job on Pit guys (and gals?)

on the regards of the clone engine, is it possible to add a super character much like Giga Bowser and Wario-man to a pre-existing character. for example (given you haven't given Charizard a final smash of his own) you'll be able to use a character slot for Charizard to swap out to Mega Charizard for a few seconds... much like Wario and Wario-man

so if im understanding correctly, u can now have 50 different CSP slot icons?
because if i remember correctly, cloned characters would copy the csp's of their original base character.


or is roy using Pokemon trainers csp cosmetics? since pokemon trainer is not used in pm...

No, its not possible to switch out characters mid-play via CE and Final Smash editing.

if u paid attention to the video at the end the character switches psa
so its a work around to what u want
the code would have to be modified to be activated when final smash, and to load the seperate psa

anyways its good to know that roy has his own csp cosmetics now, i think that was one of the major flaws for the clone engine
when will we see this codes?

Roy's Down-Aerial isn't a spike, it is a meteor. He also had one in Melee, although his combo game didn't really facilitate landing it. Of note, Marth is floatier (suffers less from combos). His ground speed and ground to air speeds are also notably higher, making Roy worse at positioning by a relevant margin. And of course, because of the differing sweetspot systems, Roy has to commit further to his attacks than Marth does. That hasn't changed.

Turbo mode allows you to cancel out of each attack to make some sick combos.

As Albafika said, you gotta fill out an application on SmashMods if you want in to the PMBR.

Looking at the video, and some of the other characters.

I think some of them could uses some new, completely custom graphic models to add more flavor to them. Unless Row has one for Flare Blade, it would be pretty cool to see a custom model for the move's "Slash".

Lucario I think could use a couple custom effect models too. Namely for his Shoryuken and Super Aura Sphere. It would take Project M to the next level in terms of dividing itself from Brawl.

Well, then you don't know much about Roy.

In the game he starred in, all the girls were all over him. Like a boss, he was completely oblivious to it, and yet was still a complete gentleman toward them.

Sorry for being an ignorant, I knew Roy in Melee ONLY (never played Fire Emblem). And he was my favorite character...

Theeeeere we go, that's what I was looking for. Interesting read. I figured they were using the dummy slots.

Kinda makes me sad that 7 is the limit, and that clones are likely to be favored over adding completely new characters, but whatevs, it makes sense. Looking forward to seeing who else may be added in the future.



On a different note, has anyone experienced a "bug" of sorts with Ivysaur's Neutral B? I've noticed that if you're holding B while a time-slowing event occurs (like Donkey Kong's Final Smash), he regains a ton of health in a short period of time.

Not game breaking, but it's there. :1

Thanks for posting that. It's pretty great how they answered basically everything people were asking without revealing any content. It's good to know about the 7 character limit and legal limitations, even if they are restrictions. It lets us know what's possible.

I'm still calling Mewtwo, as the next CE character.

Pretty interesting read,I'm still curious though, If the Project M dev team is worried about adding 3rd party characters due to legal issues, then does that mean that a stage like Dracula's castle would need to be cut?

I also find the Sm4sh discussion interesting too, as there is already stuff in demo 2.6 that also appear in Sm4sh, so I'm hoping those don't go away. It really is going to be interesting what the character selection is beyond the likes of Roy and (The extremely likely) Mewtwo.

It does bear to question of, will we see more new semi clones like say Dixie kong or will we get new characters like Ridley? It's very interesting to see what direction the clone engine will cause Project M to go.

Pretty much everything that was also revealed in the fourth Smash game was revealed well after they appeared in P:M, such as Skyloft.

Besides, Skyloft is a completely different stage in P:M, fuction-wise. It's just a certain portion of the Hyrule Temple stage reskinned for a Skyward Sword look and the main island of Skyloft in the background. From what we've seen of the fourth Smash game so far, the actual fighting area isn't even comparable.

Not sure about the Castlevania stage, but it was based on the NES title, so...

I'm just worried about the Castlevania stage since Nintendo doesn't actually own Castlevania, Konami does. And also, the parts used to make the stage were taken straight from Castlevania Judgement... so meh.

To stay in Nintendo's good graces and to avoid attracting Cease & Desist letters from 3rd party companies, we are limiting our choice of new characters to those that Nintendo has already licensed for inclusion in Brawl.
What.
Did the P:M team recently receive the visit of a Nintendo official who told them they were doing a cool job?

I understand that there's no point attracting the attention of 3rd parties, but I doubt adding Nintendo characters that haven't already been licensed would change anything.  :-\
If they want to shut down the project, they will. They won't go "Oh hey, they were nice enough to care about licensing issues within our own brand. I guess we'll completely forget about that whole hacking the console and the game thing."

I agree with this post so strongly and tried to state the same thing at Smashboards in a different topic, but everyone is too damn paranoid to think straight.

They should just take the chances and try to get away with as much as possible until it actually looks like they have to back it up a bit. THEN they can worry.

I was kinda just making fun of the ways it was formulated. You stay in one's good graces only when you already are in one's good graces. If not getting a boot to the head from Nintendo is called that, then I guess Nintendo loves a whole lot of hackers they don't even care about.

They should just take the chances and try to get away with as much as possible until it actually looks like they have to back it up a bit. THEN they can worry.
Well, I wouldn't exactly say that either. The moment they "have to back it up a bit" will also be the moment when the hammer falls and they don't have to worry about their project at all anymore... :P
I'm just saying that, if it ever does fall, it won't be because of unlicensed Nintendo, but simply because of everything that's unauthorized in the very process of creating and setting up the mod.

Same idea for KCMM, really, except we have 3rd parties to worry about too.

its an alt
its pretty cool how they were able to transform from regular mario to dr mario, the method i know of does not do it simultaneously
they could probably extend it as much as to change the moveset/psa too(which is possible atm but yet again not simultaneously), but they would have to figure out a way for it only to affect the player fighting, and not other of the same based characters

This!

So you guys are going to be pretty open about the alt costumes, then? I know the reveal video showed 4 or 5 kind-of-identifiable silhouettes, but it'd be cool to see more.

You will see more in the future before 3.0. We probably won't directly announce any more, but pay attention in future Turbo Tuesdays and other announcements.

And we're going to make renders for all the alts. We use them as the CSPs.

You have to keep in mind Roy, and the possible chance for more clones in the future.

We need more CSPs, BP, stock icons, some SFX (Roy/Dr. Mario), and all the moveset data for each character.

Personally I would like to see:
Ness have Ninten (earthbound)
Lucas have Claus (even moar)
Marth have Awakening Marth (the Vault model?)
and
Mewtwo to have X&Y (if you ever confirm him  :P )

* How do SFX work for the alts? Are they entirely separate files from the base character's SFX? I run Melee ones for Mario, for instance, so I want to know if it will interfere.

Personally I would like them to get a little more creative with it and give us characters that look astonishingly different while acting the same.

ex: Metal Sonic over Sonic (I assume you were referring to something else). He could use all sorts of mechanical SFX, change the spin moves to his Black Shield, etc. He's similar enough to Sonic to make it work without it being uninteresting. Here's the Black Shield, best known from Sonic Adventure 2 Battle:
(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130719150161/sonic/images/c/c0/Black_Shield_Archie.jpg)
Honestly, I'm not quite sure which direction they're gonna go with the characters after Mario, but I hope it's like the above. Replacing textures is really easy, and while it'd be nice to have things that are well rigged like Dr. Mario's coat, I would rather have things that also incorporate other differences like GFX and SFX that aren't possible without their engine (or overriding something else).

EDIT: quick changes for clarification

Ah, okay; now I understand. You guys are just modifying the original .pac file to put in more sounds, and then rerouting it to your alt slots. Something like the example I gave wouldn't require too many different sounds, though (at least with how I envision it). Theoretically, would you guys consider making an alt character with a moderately unique soundbank, assuming you could make it work with the slots open on that character?

Im not sure if im understanding this sfx converstion
but sfx loading for alternate costumes does not break file size
because the game is loading the soundbrsar only once, but it loads dfferent sfx per character whenever the alt costume code is executed
its possible to have a complete different sfx for alternate costumes with fp 3.5.3 by the way

^ Right. What I was asking is whether or not they would hypothetically consider filling up the empty slots for the character in the brsar, and use those (if there's enough slots) to make an almost unique soundbank for the alt character. I realize you can't place in too many sounds, but I assume it'd be enough for characters that don't speak or are otherwise simple in design. (and I haven't heard of them using 3.5.3, so that's not an option as far as I know)

Considering how amazing Link has become in recent iterations of P:M, I have high hopes for Mewtwo, and it looks like he'll be done some justice.

Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: Challenger Approaching!
Post by: Mewtwo2000 on October 13, 2013, 02:07:09 PM
To avoid the glitch on Delfino, an extra stage has to be placed after stage0 in the shader. The properties of that one are just previouscolor and previousalpha. If you download my recent Rim Pikachu or Rim Jigglypuff, they got the fix in all their rim-related shaders.

Hey guys. Just wanted to stop in and say thanks for all the kind words. I got my start on KCMM, so it's nice to hear everyone likes my most recent work. Animating Mewtwo took basically all of the free time out of 6 months of my life, so it's really great to hear that people like him.

On a scale of 1 to desparate, how much did you guys need animators/modelers? I've just about got all of my examples and such done, but that 3-month failure cooldown bites. Gotta be sure.

I honest to goodness last week just went "Man, where'd HaloedHero go? I haven't seen him post like anything in months."

Glad it went to such a good cause. He looks GREAT.

To the Project M gang, you are making me feel liek a young lad again by bringing back these characters <3 Like, I wish I could give you all big giant hugs xD

If I may ask a question... And you dont have to say WHAT they would be if they will, but will Roy and Mewtwo have a Final Smash at all? Or will they just do the same as Ivy,Char, and Squirt D:

I realize tournys dont use FS's, but.. my friends and I love them because they are pretty hype to use, and it would make Mewtwo and Roy even better if they had one- even if they just copied Marth's and Lucario's ^_^

I dunno about Mewtwo, but Thany's Decloned and Melee-y Roys have an AWESOME Final Smash that would be perfect. Something Ignis Spatha, I think it's called.

When a version of P:M with all the characters comes out, I'll probably switch to it permanently. Till then, it's BBrawl for me, so I can have Roy over ROB... which luckily won't be necessary after the final P:M gets released. :3

Not that I think Smash 4 will be subpar, but aside from Mega Man and return of Sonic, I can't say there's been a lot of content I've been ecstatic about. P:M constantly exceeds the bar, so that making our own Smash (at least by changing models/textures/interfaces) seems pretty viable. If I can get P:M on Dolphin (for HD) and can put Mega Man over ROB eventually, that'd probably be enough to make me happy for a long while...

Me. Secondary if Sonic becomes more rushdown-oriented, main if he doesn't.

Bro, you trippin'. I aint' complainin' I'm just expressing my opinion. I understand Sm4sh is still a WIP, yet so is P:M. But compare Sonic's reveal to Mewtoo's. Sonic's moveset didn't change at all. And Mewtoo got some dope ass swaqq moves and his moveset. You feel me?

May I suggest some proofreading before publishing things like that on the main website? Because either my English has gone awry in the last few hours, or most sentences on that page show symptoms of Engrish grammar and syntax.

Even in Mewtwo's current and recent designs in the Pokemon games, those are smaller now. It's been changed for a long time.

I thought this was the case. I've used Starwaffle's original model, along with the copy that had armor, for a while now. This one is way cooler IMO.

EDIT: Not sure who to mention this to, but the TT video is now listed as private and can't be watched.

And I guess I'll be the stick in the mud here...

But I feel the model is off.

Nano's avatar actually highlights a lot of the model's problems actually. Such as the rig being wonky. The rim effect doesn't mesh well with Brawl's visuals. The proportions seem strange... Like his tail being too big.

It also seems like some animations are a bit stiff. And need to use the hip bones more.

Believe it or not, the proportions of M2 are more or less that of Melee's for the sake of hitbox and collision preservation.

Also the animations are fine. If you feel that they are stiff, then I challenge you to do better.

I don&#039;t like the rim lighting either. I&#039;ll probably just use the pack that I had made a long time ago with StarWaffle&#039;s model.

However, our Mewtwo has a custom boneset meaning it's our model or bust...... until the next release is out and someone ports Waffle's model.

TBH I'm kinda iffy on the rim lighting myself since it's a Mewtwo exclusive, but in the end, I feel that the Mewtwo devs made the right choice, especially since it distinguishes itself from the older Mewtwo PSAs made here.

Yes sir. If you test the rig, the tail will look bad when bending. However, Halo animated it I'm a way that it bends nice and smoothly. If I rigged it to look "better", it would screw up the animations.

Lemme just say a little thing here... people are perfectionists because they expect Project M to be the essence of perfection. That's not to say it won't be improved upon, given it's still in the demo stages... but you'd think it'd come out a little more polished since "perfection" is what supposedly drives the engine of the backroom.

Of course, "perfection" is in the eye of the beholder.

Guys. To those complaining, go ahead. Make your own Smash. It's getting annoying that people are criticizing Smash 4 way before it's even set to be released.

Not to mention it's completely fair to compare an ongoing mod that releases a relatively constant stream of demos as they progress to an officialized development group with much stricter rules than that of the modders.

The rim lighting is much dimmer than M2K's usual rim lighting.

Also the blue glow around him during his hover attacks uses rim lighting to work.

When they make weekly videos, have an official website, get themselves interviewed in podcasts and on IGN, and overally take their role in the SSBB FGC rather seriously, then yes, I think people will expect a lot, and then some.
If you create a project and act like a very serious modder, expect to be judged as such.

I'm happy with the way his animations came out, personally. In my hardly objective opinion, he is the best animated Smash fan character there is while still also requiring more 100% custom animations than any other character. Any other character that has been successfully completed at this level of quality, that is. I will rest easy with that.

On the "if you think you can do better, go ahead" subject, if you go that route, it'd be great if you proved you can do better on a different character, because people still want more and I'm to ******* tired to will another character into existence.

As a side note, after Mewtwo is released with PM, his animations fall under my regular policy of "you can use my stuff without even needing to ask as long as you credit me." If you want to improve the animations, be my guest.

Post by: Eternal Yoshi on October 16, 2013, 06:31:02 PM
When was the last time you checked the page? It was tweaked on Tuesday.

It's because the usual writers of the character pages weren't available at the time the page was originally made and when Mewtwo was revealed that the original revision read like an NES era translation.

If it has further issues, lemme know so I can take a hand at fixing them.

I'm happy with the way his animations came out, personally. In my hardly objective opinion, he is the best animated Smash fan character there is while still also requiring more 100% custom animations than any other character. I will rest easy with that.
As you should, I believe. It might even be smoother than Melee Mewtwo...

Why people are citing the animation/rigging work and saying it's only the best you guys could do (or worse, that it isn't) is beyond me. I think the PMBR should be held to a high standard, because that's what you want and it's what you give out. This seems like no exception.

On the "if you think you can do better, go ahead" subject, if you go that route, it'd be great if you proved you can do better on a different character.
That still doesn't make much sense. You don't need to have practiced the art to be able to judge it fairly. A lot of people here have been on KCMM since the dawn of SSBB hacking, and are perfectly aware of the limitations of SSBB hacking and of what great model hackers can pull off.

Really, you don't need to be a producer to be a movie critic. No offense meant, but it's just a logic biased by pride, to try and discredit the opinion of a bunchof people. An artist and his peers have never the best judges of his own work. (see internet use of"circle-jerking")

If it has further issues, lemme know so I can take a hand at fixing them.
I'm no native speaker, but I've been studying university English for 3 years now and I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with almost every sentence:

"we altered his stats that is befitting of Mewtwo" < If not grammatically incorrect, that sounds extremely clunky.
"Some examples include, but not limited to," < Lacking a verb in the second clause.
"Mewtwo struggled in approaching" < Struggled to approach?
"his organic actions" < What exactly is an organic action? oô
"adding their own finesse that will soon be unveiled" < Again, if not grammatically incorrect, that sounds extremely clunky.
"Every single attack that Mewtwo had at his disposal [...] are restored" < That should be in singular form there.
"his staple moves such as [...] have been restored to their former glory. " < That doesn't make much sense, considering those moves didn't change from Melee to P:M. There's nothing to "restore".
"perform anything out of Teleport except for Air Dodge" < Air dodges? Air-dodging? An Air Dodge?
"Incorporate this advantage to your gameplay" < Incorporate into?
"Though, the inputs are familiar" < This comma shouldn't be in that sentence.

But that's only the tip of the iceberg, tbh. It'd be best to have a decent writer take a few minutes and rewrite the whole page into something more fluent and seamless. While not grammatically incorrect, it's just difficult to hold my chuckles when I read about Mewtwo's "increased stats", "elegant movements", "deep mix-ups", and other "vehicles" scattered across random sentences.

(Also, that thing about ROB is still kind of an insult to video game history.)

The internet is tone-deaf man. What's obvious to you will not be obvious to everybody, so in order to get a joke across effectively, you need to be more explicit that it's a joke, or very heavily imply it. Otherwise, it will be lost on people who don' know you well.

It looks more like a color edit of the Superspicy Curry without the fireballs, which would make sense considering it replaces the Curry option in Special Brawl.

However, Pik did make an MGS4 Old Snake Texture a while back, so I doubt it'd be out of the spectrum to think an updated version of that would be his alt.

Liquid wouldn't make sense, neither would Big Boss, since they made Snake a composite character. Only one that really fits -this- Snake is Old Snake.

Link's is obvious, either Fierce Deity or Skyward Link. Pit's is moot - I don't see anyone making Dark Pit a thing.

I'm probably repeating myself, but if Nintendo wants to shut P:M down, that's really not the kind of consideration that will stop them. Did Stack Smash inherit the lead of the project while I wasn't looking? oô

Also, that Mewtwo page is still flouting the English language, yet nobody dares to rise and smite its insolent bravado.

Alot of people said the MGS1 suit, which is pretty cool, but would look too similar to Brawl's default IMO, but Snake's Alt has alot of possibilities and so does Link's which Is why I said I wonder. Fierce Diety Link was in one game, and Skyward Sword Link would look too similar but I don't know who they'll pick

Yeah, I think Old Snake is a better pick. He's still Snake (and not some genetic brother or something), but he's much more easily separated from Brawl Snake than MSG1's version.

Why not just an updated OoT Link? People love the game, and he'd look like the Melee model, too. That, and he'd fit better into the Brawl environment, since it's not as radical a change as Fierce Deity (who uses a giant sword and is intricately designed) while maintaining the art style (which is pretty different with Skyward Sword Link).

I can see the reasoning behind their objectives more as "not wanting to raise their flags high enough to thrust themselves into Nintendo's radar". As far as legal boundaries, however, they're already reverse-engineering Nintendo's software and distributing unofficial patches, so it's more a matter of keeping themselves from competing with current Nintendo products than not crossing legal boundaries.

Well, that would be my reasoning, but I'm not part of PM.

That's true. It's just my hope.

I think they said they won't do characters for costumes; just different forms or outfits. I personally would like Classic Sonic (assuming Metal Sonic can't work with that rule), but I don't think his proportions will work out. Plus, they'd have to remove his voice, which I don't think they can do with the alt costume engine.

This is an interesting idea, but I feel that they would go all the way with it and have no voice, just because that's how the games portrayed him.
The only costume for sonic that I think fits is the Robo-Sim Sonic from Sonic Colors.
I think it could be something that is a little more telling of Sonic's history. Colors is pretty new, and the robots aren't really that important to his story as a whole.

I guess that's the basic idea, yeah. But my point is: they are already waving their flag around to garner support for their project and promote it. If Pokemon X/Y references was all it took for them to notice P:M, then might as well cancel the project altogether when SSB4 comes out.

What I'm thinking right now is, will there also be new spectator cheers for the new characters? And if so, will you remake the standard Brawl ones? Because in my opinion SSB64 had the best cheers, in Melee they were ok but in Brawl they sound like you and your buddies had a drink too much and are watching some Brawl tournament.
I think if you ask you could get quite a bunch of PM fans to do the job. :)


Also LoZTP Midna for PM.

Fierce Deity doesn't have a shield as well as has a bigger sword, as well as the design that was picked being popular for appearing in OOT, Soul Calibur 2, and Melee.
Fox's design was probably picked as it's based off of Star Fox 64, the most popular Star Fox game in the series.

Honestly they make the most sense in my mind, and they look nice so I'm not complaining.

Bcuz Melee.

And I really like their designs. OoT Link by far looks the best out of the Link designs in my opinion.

And by the way, Pik made OoT Link, and Star did Melee Fox.

Okay. I have to slightly nitpick something here...

I notice that your all's version of Shadow Queen has red eyes... Like every other DA incarnation of her.

She only had red eyes when she struck Grodus with lightning.

Why not make her eyes purple? And have her eyes change to red during some moves? Or for the Final Smash eyes?

Shadow Queen herself is purple... And seems to be made up of stars. Why not reflect that in her eyes? It would even make her look more... Possessed. Since in Paper Mario 2. She's just using Peach's body.

Good concern, Data Drain, but the purple eyes would be too monochromatic with her dress and lipstick. They just wouldn't stand out.
On the other hand, the red eyes work with her red jewels, design-wise. It helps that red is a really fierce color, too.

Normal Peach has a similar design choice-- her jewels and eyes are both blue, while the rest of her is pink.

I suppose that's a good point...

Still, it would be kinda nice if there was some hint in her eyes that she's possessed.

I understand that red eyes are out of the norm. But it kinda invokes an image of a vampire. However Shadow Queen is a demonic witch.

Composed of shadows and whatnot.


Anyway though...


I gotta say. This completely blows my collab out of the water.

Are there any plans to release these separate from P:M itself? I for various reasons don't have any interest in P:M itself. But some of these alts look pretty nice.

If we don't end up releasing them to the vault, I'm sure you could still get your hands them somehow.

I actually just noticed something else about Shadow Queen...

Her shoulders don't seem quite accurate.
http://www.mariowiki.com/Shadow_Queen (http://www.mariowiki.com/Shadow_Queen)

But, this might be due to rigging issues. And left intentionally inaccurate. For the sake of rigging.

And I still say something should be done with the eyes to seem more possessed looking.

Not sure what though... Maybe giving the eye whites a SLIGHT purple hue? Or do something with the iris to make it look... Creepier? I don't know.

Still, as I've said before though. It looks really good other then these little nitpicks. And is the best of the P:M alts by far.

But when you compare it to uninspired things like Melee versions. It stands out big time. You COULD have gone the unoriginal route, and made the Peach alt Rosalina. But chose not to... Props to ya.

We're not trying to 100% copy off the official alt from their original games. Each model will be slightly tweaked and modified to fit the modeler's taste and to fit in with Brawl's art style.

I like the Shadow Peach render, but that Dry Bowser one isn't very flattering. Same with Mr. L.

Edit: I should probably elaborate so I sound less [censored]ish. The Dry Bowser render is just sorta awkward, and it draws attention to the less-than-flattering parts of the model. The only thing weird about Mr. L is the hands. They're really small and it kills the sense of depth that the pose is trying to convey. I dunno, just talking out my ass here.

Yeah. I have to agree.

The Dry Bowser render doesn't seem menacing enough.

At the moment. He's just standing there all like "meh".

His pose should be a bit more dynamic.


And as SJ said about Mr. L... Yeah, the prospective seems off. It should have a better sense of depth.

They are small looking because Luigi's hands aren't that big. They are scaled a lot in Luigi's animations.

Not saying they look bad. They look great. I'm just saying they could've gone for larger nostalgia appeal by going for the oldest iterations possible.

They're aiming too much at Melee than just the battle physics and all that they originally mentioned...

At first, I expected P:M to be a balance between all smash games up to now, but it's been stepping into Melee territory a bit too much... I understand about the techniques and everything, but no need to go back into textures...

But after all, what'd you expect from just the name of the project itself? Project MELEE

Just out of curiosity, is it possible with the alt-costume engine to have more than one alt costume on a given character (assuming the graphic and sound effects stay the same)? If so, what would be the limit to that?

Secondly, is the PMBR going to divulge how the alt-character engine works at any point, or would I have to reverse engineer their reverse engineering to figure it out?

"Additionally, cBliss does not have support for Team Colors with its added costumes."
Can someone clarify what you mean by that?
cBliss does support team colors very well, just not like Brawl originally does.
This is by design and not by flaw; it is to give it a more uniform setup.

Thanks for the stab though.

It was rather poorly worded, but I think what it meant was that their alt-character engine supports team colors for the alt characters as well, as with their example of being able to have two red Marios (Mario's default color and Doctor Mario's red color) on the same Red Team without the white overlay.

Question 1: We have a limit, yes. We can't add unlimited amount of slots to a character. I forgot the exact number we can have, but I'm pretty sure it's around the same as the amount that Wario has (10ish?). We may not use all of them for each character though...

Question 2: it depends on what our coders think.

The Alt costumes are great and all, but I'd honestly prefer melee alts for all the characters. Some may say "Not everyone is in melee though!" Well why not use a design that's similar to melee? An example of this is SA2 Sonic, but maybe with a better melee touch to it. I know my ideas aren't going to be used, but it's a suggestion :P

or just give sonic more actual recolors than just green and red. black sonic could actually be black (semi-representing shadow), and gold ring sonic could be light gray (representing silver). as for snake, just use his regular skins, but his head is that of TS Snake in each.

He will not have them in 3.0. We may or may not be able to add it later in the future, depends if our coders can figure it out.

The special aesthetics for Dr. Mario took a lot of time and coding that can't be easily replicated for each character.

I honestly thought this was going to be a flat "no" simply because of how tedious it would be. This would be so great.

Might as well ask a question myself: are you guys trying to make it possible to have different soundbanks for alt costumes (beyond Dr. Mario's special case)? Even if you're not, could you explain the limitations as of now?

Funny how a lot of people here seem to forget that it's what drives this whole project.

- Ganondorf has had that hilarious Down-Air animation replaced since what, the first iteration of P:M? It wasn't because the animation fitted Ganondorf best (it doesn't; it's Falcon's move), but to appeal to the SSBB FGC community. Because it looks like Melee.
- Differenciating Falco so he's more unique? [censored] that. Make it more Melee. :P

To be fair, there's really not that much that a dedicated "low-level" player can tell us that we don't already know. And we have several members that aren't terribly excellent Smash players that have other jobs (video editing, modeling, etc) that we can get commentary from anyways.

As for "Just making everything Melee," that's not really true. There's a huge spectrum of opinions on what we should be doing: "Keep Brawl stuff," "Keep Melee stuff," "Do your own thing," and most people that fall somewhere in the middle. In general, we've been in the second column for most of development, but that becomes less the case as time goes on and we further establish our own identity.

Also please keep in mind that while you may firmly be of the "Stop just being Melee 2.0 plz" camp, we have plenty of vocal people on the other side of the coin. We're able to (generally) please both sets of people, which I think is one of Project M's strongest points.

still wish megaman was a viable option for project m without getting on Nintendo's (or Capcom's) bad side. ever since melee was released I was hopin for the blue bomber (I was young and didn't know anything about copyright infringement at the time). alas, no such luck has happened. and now smash 4 is announced and I have to wait until its release to play as him. i just don't want to replace :ness: to do so. although i loved the megaman series, i also enjoyed earthbound as a child. i just cant get rid of the little guy.

"Keep Brawl stuff," "Keep Melee stuff"

...Just don't expect Falco to throw his reflector anytime soon.

This.

For me, Brawl had alot of stuff fixed that Melee just made me and my friends rage. (Biggest thing being Falcon's side-b ledge recovery spasm, which at least P:M fixed).

But there are other things that still get at me from P:M just like Melee did the same. For instance:

1. The no-backwards ledge grab (makes you think you actually landed safe on the stage, when you just fall down to your misery)
2. The insane amount of gravity you have from just plain jumping from air to platform (had so many people raging for Pit's aerial game compared on how he was from brawl) (and  if you by some mistake keep pressing a jab against someone on the edge and they shield, you fall quick since you n-air'd and can't recover :/  )
3. And, personally, my biggest foe, the Melee camera. (This thing drives me dizzy, especially when it's a big stage like temple, and your bouncing around the whole stage, when you tech skills fail as the camera tries it's best to keep up, when the brawl camera just has a wide but fair view of the stage).
4. The no-instant-ledge grab from Melee (you can just abuse the edge-guarding to the point of going from 50-100+ damage in just a few smashes since you can't grab the edge just right ((especially
with C. Falcon, when you fall out of the stage you just can't come back up with that Up-B if you don't make contact with the player )))
Things that just get your bad side of attention at the game, but small compared to how drastically they've made an almost perfect balance of a true smash game as it should have been since the very beginning.

P.S. Personally I prefer Brawl's Falco, as he actually prefers the AIR! (AKA not fall quite faster than Fox in Melee, as the logic that a bird with wings falsl faster than a fully grown fox is master logic. lol
I can understand it's part of his techniques for combos and such, but that doesn't mean P:M team can't redesign him...

my body is [censored]ing ready! the only thing more exciting than this is 3.0b, with the big fixes an all, but this is what dreams are made of. I may like brawl minus, but I started out on project m. with all the characters in, I just wish I could add one more myself (as a separate character). I would kill for an inclusion of megaman, but that would be treading on both Nintendo's and Capcom's turf; plus he was never in a previous smash bros game (even though he deserved a spot in even melee).

new mechanics will 'wow' my friends with a combination of both tactics and just sheer awesomeness.

the only thing that bugs me (and this is more of a minor OCD thing) is that there's still room for 3 more spaces. problem is, there were only 7 extra slots created after the removal of the forbidden 7. although the gimmick character slots fill 7 slots, pokemon trainer has been entirely removed (speaking of which, do the 3 separate pokemon, mewtwo, and roy get final smashes of their own?). this leaves one slot open. dr Mario is Mario's alt costume, pichu would need size-modding, removing balance, and young link would just be another link. what im asking is, do you have any plans for that slot?

in conclusion, you guys have come far into making a melee/brawl mix (with a hint of SSB64 added). now the only thing you guys need is more melee stages. maybe work on the Brinstar Depths BETA and get it to spin perhaps? idk, just spitballing. well done guys, well done indeed.

Mewtwo and Roy will have final smashes.

The pokemon, however, still won't have any.

Well, that was pretty hype.

Dunno who did the icy things on Samus's mode change, but he/she gets points for the crafty use of the frozen effects on the Side-Smash. I had to go back and check again because it almost looked like a new effect model.

Minus point for the re-introduction of Samus's glitchy SSBM bomb physics. I'm okay with regular wavedashes, but Samus's thing is kinda random and doesn't really make any sense on the timing.

I'd be willing to bet that if anything, Samus will have a custom Brawl-styled Power Suit as her alt and maybe either a Zero Mission or NES (or possibly Super Metroid) Zero Suit costume to go with it since the Brawl design is based mostly on Zero Mission, which is a remake of the original NES game. Just a guess, but if she gets an alt it seems like the most likely one to me.

Yes, I have? In fact:

Other M (http://static3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121229200313/metroid/images/9/92/Transparent_samus_other_m.png) | Brawl (http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090425215827/metroid/images/4/45/Brawl_Varia.png) | Sm4sh (http://www.smashbros.com/images/character/samus/main.png)

I don't really see much difference other than shoulders being slightly smaller in Other M's. That makes it more athletic? Pretty sure "athletic" isn't the word you are looking for here.

Post by: Dio on November 20, 2013, 09:42:24 AM
The trailer is getting me so hyped.
I honestly stopped playing Smash like 2 months ago. But I know i'll get back into it once 3.0 is out.
Im a little surprised with certain alt outfits. Mainly Fox and Link in the Turbo Tuesday finale getting there Melee/3DS remakes designs. I was hoping for something a little more extravagant like Fox's outfit from Star Fox Adventures. Maybe Link would don his FD outfit.
I mean I like the current alts but there been so many "Melee" styled mods its kinda boring to see them now. Especially for something as prestigious as P:M
But I'll cope.
Also as an EX-Mewtwo player I do plan getting my hands dirty again with Mewtwo's chain grabs.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.0 Trailer!
Post by: Mochtroid127 on November 20, 2013, 09:45:53 AM
I think Samus actually looks okay there with the Brawl design with it being based on Zero Mission. Since the Brawl Varia (and Gravity) suit is based on MZM, I figured maybe the regular Power Suit from the same game as an alt

(http://pocketmedia.ign.com/pocket/image/metroidzeromission_012304_001.jpg)

and either this or the Super Metroid version (which would basically be the same thing, but long hair and black clothes) of ZSS to go with it.

(http://static.gamesradar.com/images/mb/GamesRadar/us/Games/M/Metroid%20Other%20M/Everything%20Else/Samus%20underwear/Finished/083010_metroidotherm_obs02--article_image.jpg)

Or I suppose if they really want to be classic, they could go with the NES look and give her pink clothes and green hair, although she already has a pink costume so IDK.

Alright, so I finally got P:M working with an NTSC iso and USB Loader GX and I must say..

I'm impressed. The game feels great, even better than Melee imo. Might just be becouse all my favorites from Melee got buffs. Mario and Ganondorf for example, they feel so amazing in this game. Wolf is my favorite out of the "new" characters, lovin' his shine!

The alternate costumes are looking amazing, too! Freaking Dry Bowser.. so sexy. lol

Also, I love the huge selection of neutral stages. Brawl and Melee both had a pretty limited amount of competetively viable stages, so seeing this many stages that I could potentionally use is awesome.

That 3.0 trailer got me hella excited. Samus and Mewtwo are looking amazing, can't wait to try them out.

Unless the PMBR decides to reveal the full Clone Engine for vBrawl to use (which they said they won't at this time), then it's likely Roy and Mewtwo won't ever get a place on the Vault. :/

roy has his own moveset too. the difference between roy and mewtwo's situations is that mewtwo has bone edits and roy does not. mewtwo cant have hacks placed over (unless expertly PSA'd), but roy can.

PM was the method I used to not use items in smash anymore. modding had its limitations and some items were held awkwardly, especially by size-modded characters. then came brawl minus, where some final smashed would bork the game.

Project M's Mewtwo has it's own custom boneset different from Lucario meaning nothing on Brawl Vault will be compatible period.

Because of this, depending on how popular PM gets, PM Mewtwo will eventually need it's own entry since nothing on the vault currently will work over PM M2.

Uhm... I don't think we're going to add new entries on BV for each model with a custom boneset. Unless I'm horribly misunderstanding something, it's a rather common process and I don't really see why PM's Mewtwo would deserve its own section for that?

Nano kinda just said he'd make a tut on how to fit Lucario models to that boneset, so...

Post by: nanobuds on November 24, 2013, 05:23:01 PM
Even when ported, the animations will be pretty wacky, since some bone translations are messy.

It'll be best to just re-rig the models onto the model. But the bone edits can be used for those who don't know how to model import.

I'm curious as to why this complaint is cropping up now when the stage has been gone from the game and replaced by SSE Jungle for almost 2 years.  I mean, it's a fair complaint (though one I personally don't really agree with due to 1. the size of the main platform  2. the fact that the main platform has a bottom  3. the lack of a top platform  4. the bouncy leaf platforms) but one that was never really brought up when this stage was SSE Jungle.

I'm curious as to why this complaint is cropping up now when the stage has been gone from the game and replaced by SSE Jungle for almost 2 years.  I mean, it's a fair complaint (though one I personally don't really agree with due to 1. the size of the main platform  2. the fact that the main platform has a bottom  3. the lack of a top platform  4. the bouncy leaf platforms) but one that was never really brought up when this stage was SSE Jungle.
It's because I'm just kinda starting to get into P:M.

I was hoping SSE Jungle would be transformed aesthetically to fit one of the franchises. I like what you guys did with it. Very nice.

I like the touch with the music, too. That's certainly something the Pikmin stage lacked. I just has Classic and Modern Mushroom Hill over it instead. XD

Wavestah approved~ ¦(

we should also add a new entry in brawlvault for SDoom's bomberman, he uses a custom boneset.

it's funny though.

Project M's Mewtwo has it's own custom boneset different from Lucario meaning nothing on Brawl Vault will be compatible period.

Because of this, depending on how popular PM gets, PM Mewtwo will eventually need it's own entry since nothing on the vault currently will work over PM M2.
Idk if that is possible...
But couldn't they release a mewtwo base, FORCE people to credit or not use so people know it's from the same mewtwo, and then have people upload there hacks of the pm mewtwo?

Whatever I want to drop this topic since the Vault needs other things added that won't ever get added(like a NSFW category).

To start a new one, how about that PM Yoshi?

You probably shouldn't rebound on the topic like that if you really want to drop the subject...

You asked about a new section just for PMBR's Mewtwo, I answered that there's no reason custom bonesets should each get their own section, no matter how "messy" their ports would end up being. Not to mention, if the boneset is only really working with the Mewtwo P:M moveset, I doubt all that many people will port models on it. At least not enough to justify a distinct section.

It's not even a matter of "don't have time" or "don't want" like a NSFW category. It's that the whole notion is honestly quite silly. Really, that's about it.

Post by: Register on November 26, 2013, 10:08:05 AM
Was wondering the same thing, tbh. So if someone made Mega Mewtwo's for PM-Mewtwo, that would be categorized under Lucario? I guess nothing a simple Search function cannot handle, or a proper description for the model swap. Hope to see some creativity with him and Roy in the future.

Post by: LC-DDM on November 26, 2013, 11:21:43 AM
I find it funny how we're discussing about adding things to the Vault that just wouldn't exist.

First because it's off-topic.

Second because even if there WERE to be any changes to the Vault, they couldn't happen because there's a lack of this thing called a "coder".

I mean, it doesn't stop you from saying "Vault should have this and that", but it just makes you look much sillier.

Possibly a silly question, but what is Project M's method of getting the gameplay for the videos on the YouTube channel? (Especially for the turbo videos)

I don't believe that someone's actually playing. (But if someone is, congrats to you.)
Or is the gameplay edited on an emulator?

It's the same as Melee, however it can hit characters facing away from them, and it creates knockback on characters that are in the air.

If I recall correctly, a PMBR member said that their costume engine is different than cBliss.
This is correct. We can assign team colors to the new slots, which I'm not sure if cBliss can or not.

You know, seeing that vid with Ganon reminds me, did anyone else ever notice that Ganon is a bit glitch when he jumps out of water? Not that it's something you have to worry about very much, but I was playing on the Wind Waker stage a few months ago and noticed that you pretty much have to double jump to get out because his first jump is a little messed up for some reason. I meant to mention it a while back and completely forgot... that and I was going to ask for some buffs for him. :P

Gecko only freezes, riivolution refuses to load said costumes, hell I even used some program to build a custom brawl iso with all the costumes included, sorry if this is the wrong spot but is there a way to do this?

thats too bad i have a lot cosmetics and other stuff we use locally, its difficult to tell if something is already in the codeset or not without a text file, and often get clashes of code because of it. i'll definitely be looking forward to trying it out, but we will probably end up waiting for the full release and stick with our codeset for now. also love the wolf alternative <3 looking forward to what else is revealed.

You know how when you unlock a new character for the first time in Brawl, there's a text over the character saying "NEW!".

(http://gyazo.com/9b42f749de9e5e3bf9a789d951ee291a.png)

It's definitely too late to add this in now, but it would be cool if the "NEW!" text were over the newly released characters of 3.0. ;P

Oh well.

That's a good question. If the website is offline still even after the webmaster returns to fix the PM site, then the DL will likely have to wait until the site returns, whenever that may be.

Be sure to check the PM twitter for updates on this when it happens.

We had trouble getting articles to work for M2 and Roy hats, we we had to take that route.

It's also why Roy Hat uses Kirby's scythe.

I could be wrong, but based on that 'ground shock wave', it looks to me like he's either about to start charging it or he just released it.

Quote
Archer says that after 3.0 there will likely be only one more major release with a few more tweaks before his team considers the project finished for good. It might add even more Nintendo characters to the mix, he says. “If we come up with any good ideas for the remaining unused character slots we will probably be filling at least a few of those up as well.”

Is this news? I didn't realize they were planning on retiring it

Ness has dat BedHair.

Anyway, when it comes up is completely dependent on when we can recover from the DDos attacks and the like, so you should probably do something else while you wait for the Mirrors to materialize and such.

Kinda. Fire Peach was originally just an extra recolor... But we decide at the last minute to add the ponytail.

We also wanted to make her look more different because she looked too similar to the white Peach.

I thought I was the only one with such a sister. then again she's been taking therapy and she's not as... wait I'm getting off subject. for people who are waiting and cant stop refreshing the site, the best solution would be to replay adventure mode to pass time. even on easy, by the time you're halfway thru it, 3.0 will be ready. moral of the story: do something and stop staring at the dark blue screen, hoping for something to happen.

So uhh.... in Brawl and previous PM revisions, if there's a human in the match there's a protocol in the game code that forces the CPU to be targetting them at all times over the default way of selecting a target, no matter what the rules say. This is no longer the case in PM 3.0.

Just a bomb shell I wanted to drop that would get lost in the hype train.

If some of you didn't know, Turbo Mode replaces curry completely, as a mode in special Brawl and the item. And no, that Mario won't be an alt.

It was just a random tweet that I can't find now, but some people would probably believe it if they saw it regardless, so just mentioning it.

Also, IGN just randomly posted the trailer on their channel.

Just a heads up that the item version last as long as the curry item did but if you get hit it'll expire, so don't get hit when you get the Turbo item.

Some idiot has started saying that Nintendo sent a letter to cancel the release.  *facepalm*

This is completely false.

jiang, one of our artists, has that type of style. He touched up Pirate Wolf and Melee Falco. The rendering program we have is good, but not the best for the low-poly models that we use.

But I mean, I'd like the design to be an official part of P:M or something like that. The one I collabed with requires a size mod, and I'm not terribly crazy about that. A sexy render to go with it wouldn't hurt either.

They could probably implement it better, is what I'm getting at.

I pushed for it, but our coders didn't have time.

Since Bowser's flame is an article, its a lot more complicated to change than something simple like GFX for Dark and Fire Peach.

We'll maybe get it in for a future update. No promises though.

Gotcha. Yeah. That would be pretty awesome. Funny you mention the size mod. I started working on a machinima project about a year and a half ago (still haven't gotten around to finishing it, maybe someday :P) and I couldn't get over how huge Falco was without the size mod since I was creating my own animations which screwed everything up. Fortunately it didn't really matter because I was green screening every single thing anyway so I could edit his size later, but it was funny how much bigger he was than most other characters. Same with Krystal over ZSS.

Technically they aren't. They aren't selling any content that Nintendo owns. Nintendo doesn't own the name 'Project M'. They probably could if they wanted to, but they're only selling a name that Nintendo doesn't have any rights to currently. Besides, they probably aren't making a ton off the shirts and stuff anyway. Take it from someone who covers VG music and puts some of it on music stores, which I won't deny, I probably shouldn't be doing even though they probably aren't that concerned with it unless I were making millions of dollars, but I put a lot of work into it and so many people do way worse than what I do. I've even seen 'remixes' on iTunes that just sound like someone plugged in a headphone jack, pressed record, and uploaded some mp3s that people WILL buy since it's 100% the original version. Now THAT's illegal right there, but they still get away with it.

Although I can pick out two flaws (no colorful sword or white eyes), but I don't care because of how great it looks. I'm honestly not a fan of Meta Knight in Project M, but I'm a huge fan of the character in general. I wish the concept art was his original design. (my opinion)

Make sure your placing them correctly, and when it comes to P:M always use Gecko. I usually use Riivo, but it cant handle P:M very well, so I use Gecko for P:M

Well I never had a problem with gecko in the past. Is it still confined to having to use a 2GB SD card with Gecko or is there a way I can work around that restriction? I only ask because I have  various SD cards all 4GB or above (only have them because they came with various devices I have purchased) but the only 2 Gig I have is EXTREMELY old and maybe that's my problem?

It's very interesting to see that Mewtwo and Roy have their own "FitMewtwo" and "FitRoy" file names.

Ahh, the lack of Riivolution might be a problem. Tried the Gecko method in the past but it wouldn't work for me either, even though Gecko works just fine for other games... Probably was doing something stupid on my end, guess I'll find out in about an hour. I seriously cannot wait to try this update.

Why is there a caution sign over some characters' portraits?

There's a changelog floating around... Basically, if you use those costumes in 3~4 player matches, it can cause some noticeable lag. They'll fix this up in the future, but for now there's not much they can do. I think it was caused by the model importer they use.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.0 RELEASED!!
Post by: Gamma Ridley on December 09, 2013, 07:26:16 PM
And by "model importer they use," I presume they mean the default BrawlBox importer, which does not support tristripping or whatever. They mentioned they were working on a fix, so hopefully one of the P:M members will pick up where BJ left off and add tristripping to the BBox importer, or at least something along those lines.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.0 RELEASED!!

Is there a way to make Roy and Mewtwo work with this? (http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=16990).

Every time I choose either and select a stage, it hangs for me.

Do I need to add some lines in BeyondRiivolution.XML to make it work?

Post by: Eternal Yoshi on December 09, 2013, 07:55:21 PM
Although Riivo is no longer officially supported, you can get it to work with Riivo, but it WILL require quite a bit of extra work and XML editing.

Also Gravity is the winner in explaining the Caution signs and why they are there.

Correct; since we had to make room for Clones and Alts

I would almost~ try this method, as Riivolution is compatible with my SD Card. The one thing that puzzles me is how I'd assign the new costumes, Roy, and Mewtwo to any on-disc files or folders. I figure I just cannot name non-existent directories after them and expect it to work.

Well, I must say, Samus and Roy are hella fun to play. Mewtwo is pretty fun too, I just was never very good with him in the first place. It's been a while since I played Project M at all, so it felt brand new again. He's not my favorite to begin with, but Yoshi seems much better as well. I actually think I could get used to this version of Samus. I've tried to get good with her in Melee for years, but being a Ganondorf main, I just could never get used to her floatyness, but I feel a little more in control with her this way and I really like the dodge being changed to something faster. The Ice Beam attacks also really feel strong with less damage and more knockback to counter the flamethrower (Plasma Beam I guess) being the complete opposite. I don't know what to think about Turbo Mode yet. I almost got beaten by a level 5 just trying to figure out how it all works, but I definitely want to try it again as well. I shall be playing a lot more of this once I get through my finals this week and maybe there will be a tournament at MAGFest next month that I can sign up for. :D

Of course, I immediately tried out the horizontal Final Cutter.

For some reason, I can't pull it off. I did it once, but I could never do it again. Either there's something wrong with my controller stick, or the new mechanic is really specific...

also boxer DK looks epic, specially when comboing on turbo.

so far, mario has the most "easy OP" combo, being down-B(mash to get in the air)>down-A>up-B>down-A or B.
im pretty sure that it should be loopable if done perfectly, although that isn't as easy anymore xD

It only works in the air. As soon as you activate the Up-B, before Kirby "jumps", hold any side direction and b and it'll work.

It takes a bit of getting used to.

So how do we make Lucario costumes compatible with Mewtwo? I wanna use the Melee Mewtwo import.

Nope, he uses a custom bone tree

Loving it. Samus and Roy feel great, but there's something about Mewtwo..
His float mechanics don't make a lot of sense to me. That might just be becouse I played so much Peach in Melee, but yea. Something about it feels weird, I'll get used to it eventually.
Sucks how the alternate costumes end up lagging the game a bit, hopefully that'll get fixed in 3.1/3.0a or something lol.

But yea, amazing job. The only thing that I want you guys to change now is the CSS and the main menu, just so it doesn't look like Brawls. You changed up the SSS, so yea hopefully the CSS and the menu will get a makeover soon. That'd be grrrreat.

We honestly don't know how to update that one with the needed info with the Alts/M2/Roy.

Simply Editing the .pac isn't gonna cut it.

It's obvious that Lucario was cloned, and Lucario can't utilize the reflecting Defensive Collision properly?

Anybody else notice they left numerical space in all the characters portrait slots for cBliss?

Does this mean I can simply add the missing portrait and the game will read the character slot I add?

Example: I add MenSelchrFaceB.018 and FitDonkey08 and it will read it?

WE don't use CBliss; we have our own Alternate Costume Engine, built from the ashes of Masquerade.

Anyway, no it will not. Each costume slot has to be added one at a time and have to be done a character by character basis.

The thing is, you'd have to amend the reflection code on a character per character, and action per action basis to get it to work.
You'd also need to allocate a spot in the characters file to store the size and offset floats to, and get it to read from said spot.

So basically, you'd need to know how to add specific character and action checks, locate the necessary floats from the character file, and fix the offsets inside the code, because those will change every time you amend the code.

Well yeah, but it would more useful when the code is finished, as currently we're unable to give different multiplier stats to newly added reflection collisions.
That, and you'd need to have an USBGecko to find the memory offset for the characters defence collision offset and size floats, provided it has them (Lucario, and by extant Mewtwo, have them for Lucario's VBrawl down B).

Any character has access to a generic sword trail - look at Lucas' Samus' or Bowser's file to figure it out.  Only comes in white though.  Sonic's is a gfx - like Metaknight's sword slashes.

Am I the only one who doesn't really like Turbo Mode that much? I mean, I'm in awe at how it was done with all the technicality and such, but I can't seem to pull off much with any character. Also, whenever I do actually start something good, the CPU just gets out of it like it's nothing and ruins it EVERY time (on level 1 or 9) and if I just have another human standing there, they'll get knocked off in 2 or 3 hits, which is pretty pointless. I guess I just don't really feel like I'm enjoying it as much as I'm getting frustrated with it.

Also random 'glitch' to mention. If I ever get hit straight up, the CPU will dash dance at the speed of light and pull a regular Brawl CPU (up Smash spam) over and over and over unless I jump again or air dodge or something. Probably not that unusual, but it just looks... off when they actually do it.

After backing everything up of course.

I only moved a song (Peach's Castle) to Waluigi Pinball instead of Mario Circuit. replaced all but 2 of Green Hill Zone's songs so I could put the perfect chaos stage on it; brought in 2 songs for Lylat Cruise (Battle with Clockwerk and PSASBR: Dr. Nefarious); brought in 2 songs for Warioware Inc (Mr. Patch, Witchy World, and PSASBR: Alden's Tower Phase 2); copied the Metal Mario Theme so it plays every time on that stage; put one song on Shadow Moses Island (The Villa theme from Perfect Dark); and put in 1 song for Temple (Koloktos Battle) after I changed it to Temple of Time. I had no trouble at all... unless yer talkin about replacing the music in general. if you wanna do that, remove the brstm first, reload the folder, then put the new one in. had that trouble before; never had it again. I think it has something to do with "data collision" when one brstm is pushing out the other.

Something I just noticed that has been bothering me ever since I first saw how no one could be able to change/locate/remove it ever since it started conflicting with ports not matching correct names...but how the HECK did they manage to change the result screen name on top of the results to fit properly for Roy and Mewtwo? Let alone, give it their own individual slots to load properly? o_0

Some initial criticisms from playing for 2 days straight:

Dr. Mario's pills are spammy as [censored], Kirby's horizontal cutter is a bit odd to pull off, the ice climber's final smash on warioware needs to be lowered, I think they forgot to delete the rain bounce model on distant planet, and overall the stage selection is disappointing, considering they could've added a billion stages but opted not to.

Fighting Kirby is quite a challenge, considering that his neutral air cancels any combo your opponent might be doing to you. Heck, not even chard's tail can help me there. Also if find charizard lacking in contrast to the other characters... couple of tournamets played and he feels... left out imo.

Also, why didn't you guys left Yoshi with the extra vertical recovery he had in vanilla when he did the up b in the air? Doing side b is risky since you tend to loose a second jump while doing it and that second  jump leave's you completely vulnerable to mario's cape and spikes... or am I using him wrong?

To keep the ledge tricks that were possible with Melee Up B.  The little hop meant you couldn't do these.

I wouldn't go adding anything to the code, it's easy enough just to change the code that's present. Just remember the pokemon are now 2A, 2B and 2C, Roy is 2D and Mewtwo is 2E.

ty for that, it will come in handy for CSS edits. tho i still need to find out what code to replace the file patch with my own. its different then the normal FPC so its difficult to find in the jumble of code. (i assume its the same as the FPC 4.0 for sound effects, tho it reads from a new folder instead of rsbe making the string of code slightly different). the above FPC i posted makes it where the game has 2 partitions of replacement files. instead of just one.

Just going by memory and rumors, but I believe the SSBB announcer himself did make those. He sent several name-calling clips to the community after they had gathered a list of favorites they wanted to hear him say. I think there's a video on YT with it...
Yeah...
Here:
Brawl Announcer Does Some Additional Voicing ([url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8SqlRYW3xo#[/url])


Actually, we didn't use those, because the sound quality was too different. We borrowed sounds from other words the announcer says.

For example:
Mewtwo's uses the M from the middle of Samus (other M sounds sounded too harsh, because of the way it was modeled after the announcer's YouTube one where he emphasizes the "two," where "Mew" is softer.) So, it's M-you ("you" sound from "continue?") -TWO! (Two from, well, "two!")

They're far from ideal, but they're our best solution so far.

It's not really a matter of sounding like the announcer or not. It'd be fairly near impossible for anyone to imitate it closely enough that it would sound right (as I said, even other clips from the same guy sounded off, because they weren't recorded with the same studio setup), especially since we don't exactly have the same level of professional recording equipment.

You'd have to replace the announcer entirely with someone new, and even then, sound quality would be an issue due to lack of access to a real recording studio.

He's THE Brawl Announcer. Replacing him with someone like Rina-Chan, or whatever seems wrong to me.

Keeping the announcer gives it that natural feeling other announcers I've heard  have different pitches on the character calls but it could just be bad luck on my part.

You'd be surprised. Coding issues, like the clone engine, either work or they don't, and finding solutions just takes patience and logic.

A new announcer is an artistic thing, which means we could work on it forever and never figure out how to get it just right, and it would be extremely difficult for us to produce it with quality as high as the current announcer. Given the choice between every announcer sound in the game being slightly inferior and two of them being slightly inferior, I'll take two of them.

And they really aren't even that bad. Mewtwo's initial announcer call was kinda janky, but his and Roy's sound fine as they are, even if they were frankensteined from other sounds.

When I first heard those announcer calls, I thought they sounded a bit off.
Now that I know where they come from, I'm surprised they didn't end up even worse.

And while a bit of distinction wouldn't hurt, without the proper recording equipment and know-how, they might might as well invest their time and money on things they have the means to make more distinctive.

For instance, I didn't think someone could make Falco more generic and insipid than the SSBB devs, but it looks like I was dead wrong. I don't care if you have a maniac tournament Falco player holding a knife to your throat, but I want you to fire whoever did all those lazy copy-paste Melee movesets and replace them with the guys who came up with actually creative ideas to de-clone Toon Link, Wolf and Lucario.
Honestly, I had fun playing with those, experimenting with their new stuff and the rest of the cast that recieved changes. But then I come to the top tier guys and all I can read is "return to their former glory", "restoration", "replica", "remade to match Melee".

You're giving both tournament AND non-tournament players reasons to play most of your characters over their Brawl/Melee equivalents. Why stop applying that constructive logic whenever you get closer to the Melee top tiers. Are Fox/Falco players notably more intolerant to change than Samus/Ganondorf players?

tl;dr: Is there any point for me, "casual" player, to play any of the copy-paste characters that I've already played for more than 7 years?

You're giving both tournament AND non-tournament players reasons to play most of your characters over their Brawl/Melee equivalents. Why stop applying that constructive logic whenever you get closer to the Melee top tiers. Are Fox/Falco players notably more intolerant to change than Samus/Ganondorf players?

tl;dr: Is there any point for me, "casual" player, to play any of the copy-paste characters that I've already played for more than 7 years?

All of my this^

Wish they would make a better hybrid of Falco combining both the Brawl and Melee moveset 3: that would give him a so much better entity to what a P:M Falco should be :/

Also adding that changing that could (censored) off a ton of top tier people that uses fox and falco BECAUSE of their melee predecessors. Believe me, aton of guys at my gaming club love fox/falco the way they are. And I seen alot of pm tourney displaying just how great and technical using those two are. It is best not to fix whats not broken, and just leave that melee influence alone.

And I'm saying this, not because I disagree with you (I want this change to happen), but for all of those annoying competitive guys who spent hours and hours training with characters that are hard to master would probably just stop playing pm altogether.

Besides, there is alot for casual players now.

When I first heard those announcer calls, I thought they sounded a bit off.
Now that I know where they come from, I'm surprised they didn't end up even worse.

And while a bit of distinction wouldn't hurt, without the proper recording equipment and know-how, they might might as well invest their time and money on things they have the means to make more distinctive.

For instance, I didn't think someone could make Falco more generic and insipid than the SSBB devs, but it looks like I was dead wrong.

Personally, I think they're different enough already, although, I don't completely disagree. I used to main Falco in Melee (also not because he's top tier, simply because I tried him once and liked the feel of his movement and such) and still consider him to be one of my best characters in both Melee and P:M, but now I main Ganon and I have to say, I don't like P:M Ganon as much because he IS different. I like him, but more to just play for fun. Even though I don't usually play competitively, I would never use him competitively for P:M. Even just with the flame choke left from Brawl, I feel maybe half as good with him, Link, Mario, and Falcon in P:M as I do in Melee, but I feel WAY better with Samus, Marth, and Sheik in P:M, not to mention 90% of my Brawl mains were new characters like Snake, Wolf, and Wario. One of my friends mains Falco in Melee as well and he says that he likes P:M Falco, but not as much as the Melee version, so he mains Captain Falcon instead. I don't know. I guess it varies from person to person based on how well you know every little technical thing about your character. Also, it is called Project MELEE for a reason. If someone wants a more Brawl play styled character, why not just play Brawl? You could say the same for Melee, which is why I do play Melee more, although I feel like Project M is a nice balance between the two. Sure Melee is unbalanced (Has anyone other than Fox or Falco beaten Fox or Falco lately?), but it's not exactly likely that you'll see Brawl Ganon or Ike or even Wolf beating Diddy or Meta Knight either. At least those characters can match up with Sheik, Marth, Falco, and Fox with the near unlimited balancing and editing that Project M can have. Why not make every character as good as they can be as long as they aren't unbeatable, but with moveset editing, it can be done. I mean, look at Bowser! Not god tier or anything, but he's definitely improved even without actually changing anything other than the attributes of his already existing moves.

It's not so much about how intolerant they are to change. It's more that the better a character did in Melee, the less change they underwent, generally. Remember, this game was made for competitive smash players, but the game it's based on is Melee, so we brought back what worked in competitive Melee and went from there.

(Although, I do think it's fair to assume that the worse a character is, the more its players would appreciate change.)

Is there any point for a casual player to play the Melee tops in Project M? If you look at the character in a vacuum, no, not really. However, the Melee tops finally have an entire viable cast of characters they now have to fend off and learn how to fight, which may not be as exciting as having new moves, but you can't really say that you might as well just play Melee. It's the same character, but it's a very new game.

Still, I don't expect you'll be excited by that, and I don't blame you, but why should we take that away from people who will be, especially since they're the kind of players who started this game, and that's always been the audience we've aimed at. In short: if you want an entirely new character, we've provided that. If players want to revisit the top Melee characters in a new game, we've provided that, too.

That way, there's something for everyone, which is what we thought Sakurai forgot about Brawl. He deliberately took away things that competitive players want. Instead, we're choosing to cater to both audiences, but that will certainly mean that not every decision pleases each camp.

Pichu wasn't particularly great, but he's one of my favorite characters to troll with when I play Smash with some guys on campus. They mostly pick the "normal" characters when we play Melee (Falco, Fox, Sheik, etc) so I like to use low tiers to mess with them. Good times.

Remember, this game was made for competitive smash players, but the game it's based on is Melee, so we brought back what worked in competitive Melee and went from there.
I really feel that there's a gross misunderstanding here on that whole "what worked in Melee", which kinda surprises me considering you guys have been working on nothing but that for years now. What worked in Melee were its mechanics, the effective and coherent movesets, stuff like that. The things that you've already understood and applied to other fighters. That's what made Falco good, not the fact he's a boring copy-paste of Fox.

You can't just say "well, that worked, so no use fixing what isn't broken", that's just not how game design works. Game design is not finding the optimal setup and then sticking with it, that's Math. It's about finding different optimals every time, which is something that's been done rather successfully on Toon Link, or even Samus. There was no need to add the Ice Beam, for instance. But you did it anyway instead of just, y'know, tweaking a few numbers to balance Samus out and call it a day.

Not to mention, you really can't say Melee Falco "worked" either. He was a generic Fox clone. That's not "working" in my book.

Is there any point for a casual player to play the Melee tops in Project M? If you look at the character in a vacuum, no, not really. However, the Melee tops finally have an entire viable cast of characters they now have to fend off and learn how to fight, which may not be as exciting as having new moves, but you can't really say that you might as well just play Melee. It's the same character, but it's a very new game.
I've seen that brought forward on the website too, and I still can't help but feel this is incredibly flawed. Putting the same characters in a different situation isn't changing the characters in any way, just as adding new DLC levels doesn't suddenly make a new game, especially if those levels don't bring foward new mechanics.
In a nutshell, it's still the same Fox and Falco and Captain Falcon I'm playing. And in the frequent occurence where you'd have a match with two of the Melee top tiers, lo and behold, it's not a "very new game" anymore at all.

That way, there's something for everyone, which is what we thought Sakurai forgot about Brawl. He deliberately took away things that competitive players want. Instead, we're choosing to cater to both audiences, but that will certainly mean that not every decision pleases each camp.
But there's not something for everyone, that's the main problem. You've tuned all the regular characters to be tournament-friendly AND casual-friendly, but completely left out the second part for Melee top tiers. Pragmatically speaking, you're alienating a major part of your audience (target or not, I don't really care) from a decent portion of your cast. That's the exact opposite of "for everyone".

On those characters, you're deliberately taking away things that casual players wanted (variety, personnality), and catering those players to the rest of the cast. In a way, that isn't all that much better than Sakurai did when he catered tournament-players towards playing only Metaknight, Ice Climbers, Olimar, Diddy and such.

Not to mention, you really can't say Melee Falco "worked" either. He was a generic Fox clone. That's not "working" in my book.

While the animations may be largely identical, Fox and Falco vastly different physics and hitbox settings that make the characters play different enough in competitive play, especially in mid and higher levels while having them both work competitively, effectively making them different characters.

Keep in mind that lots of companies/franchises have been successful by sticking with what worked with minor changes, like most franchises made by Capcom back in the late 80s and 90s, such as the NES Mega Man games.

Changing movesets for the sake of changing them hasn't always worked out well for other franchises like Soul Calibur.

The reason characters like Toon Link and Samus have been changed is because they needed altercations to their toolset to better fit in the PM environment and to be able to compete with the rest of the cast better. There are occasions where simple number tweaks aren't gonna cut it and characters like Toon Link and Samus are a great example. style is a staple of Melee anFalco's Melee moveset already has all that he needs to compete effectively not to mention his Melee d PM, so there is no purpose in changing in what works for Falco.

In a way, that isn't all that much better than Sakurai did when he catered tournament-players towards playing only Metaknight, Ice Climbers, Olimar, Diddy and such.

Actually, even though characters like Fox and Falco are largely the same as Melee, playing them in PM IS a new experience while staying familiar. The mechanics and game around them have changed to the point where it's a different flavor. There are new techniques to use(Footstooling), new and improved characters to fight, and more environments and such that were not present in Melee Their Matchups and such are also very different in PM due to the larger variety of viable characters.

There's definitely things for casuals and the like to appreciate in PM though they aren't always easy to notice. For example, 2 changes that have gone under the radar that were made were:

1. Computer players no longer have a preference for ganging up on the human player in 4 player scenarios
2. Many items/Pokemon/Assist Trophy parameters were adjusted to better suit balance.

While some may disagree, keep in mind that there are players of all walks that felt that items in brawl were far too overpowered and I think the changes I did to them so far suit their wants.

Edit: If you want a Falco in PM that has what you want, I recommend doing it yourselves. You guys definitely have the tools to do so. While we may not support it, we have no problem with you editing Falco's PSA to be what you want and putting it on Brawlvault, as long as we're credited for the original PM Falco assets.

Besides, there is alot for casual players now.

If I'm reading correctly, Miacis, you're saying this guy's friends, who are happy that we brought back Melee Falco, don't deserve to keep that, because there are people who would like to play something different. Forgive me if I don't think that's as unassailably fair as you do.

I'll put it another way. Say you were in charge of the PMBR, and you decided to change Falco, and a Falco main walked up to you and asked why. The answer would be, "His moves looked too similar to Fox, so we changed him."

Say he responded, "But he played totally different, even though they appear similar. If you think they were too similar, you don't understand the character at all. I actually liked that he and Fox appeared similar but played totally differently, because it made sense to me, since they're on the same team, but they're also rivals. Seeing them use similar fighting styles in their own unique way was really fun for me. Now Falco's just got a bunch of weird stuff that you guys made up that doesn't make any sense, and we've completely lost that unique connection between the two characters."

Would you completely ignore his opinion that it's OK for Fox and Falco to be similar and that it's not inherently lazy or boring?

The problem is that you're not wrong, but we're not wrong either, so there's not really a lot I can say beyond my initial response. If you choose to disagree with it, that's fine, but no matter what you say, there's no right or wrong answer here. There is no "this is good game design" and "this is bad game design" no matter how many people try to reduce it to those terms.

Basically, you're choosing to see our decisions as "mistakes," whereas I've tried to point out that they're not perfect, but that there is no perfect answer.

As for all the Falco recloning talk, I just want to point out one major detail...

Project M was literally made from the sole attempt at making Falco play like Melee. after making him play like melee, other characters were adjusted, and thus we have PM how it is today.

While it shows, I know I have a friend that mains Falco in Melee but can't stand him in PM, I haven't the slightest why, but he still feels different enough.

Overall I guess the idea is that Falco in a melee setting is already near perfection, and needs no edits, similar to that of say Marth, while the likes of Link and Samus suck in a melee setting and thus need to be edited, thus, viability has a big impact on moveset changes.

@Haloed: Whenever I tried to argue the whole Falco De-Cloning issue. What I actually wanted was to see Falco's gameplay change in a way that makes him fundamentally different from Fox, beyond animations differences, physics differences, and a difference in numbers for their programming in their attacks. It doesn't matter how much you put a spin on it, the fact will always remain that he plays and looks too much like Fox.

I wanted Falco to become a character whose focus is based one the phrase you hear when he calls the Landmaster: "Personally, I prefer the air!". I wanted his moveset to reflect that statement. More emphasis on juggling, off-stage and on-stage aerial combos, and an ability to stay airborne for a decent amount of time rather than having him fall like a rock physics-wise. Having most of his ground-based attack and throws make his opponent airborne, and having cancels and new moves that facilitate a superior aerial combo game than his Melee incarnation, and maybe replacing a Special or two to compliment such a moveset. You don't have to take away absolutely everything he has to achieve that.

I've kinda stopped caring about it though. Not much point in arguing with those who won't acknowledge any amount of merit to the idea.

No, one cannot be onesided, you must think on both sides in order to make an argument with no flaws. We have this whole casual vs competitive debate here for what exactly? Just so one character can be changed? Really? And the rest? You cannot strip what Falcon users grew to know and love, and I personally know of 20... not one... not two... 20 people in our club that uses Falco and actually DISLIKES fox because he is different. I am one of the two guys that bring project m to that club and I would not like to see the disappointing looks of those people. And it doesn't matter who you are, it doesn't matter how do you approach brawl. NO game can be perfect, no game can satisfy anybody, no matter how perfect or well designed it is.

I am a casual player, and guess what? I want Falco unchanged you know why? I main him for tournaments. Believe me, I would like if he flapped his wings and flied or dance the gangman style for lols, but... guess what? In the end I won't longer be using him for the tournaments.

Besides, there is more topics that needs to be discussed about balancing the already existing cast than breaking an balanced character and it is best that this topic would be changed before shots are fired.

And this is just, my opinion.

While the animations may be largely identical, Fox and Falco vastly different physics and hitbox settings that make the characters play different enough in competitive play, especially in mid and higher levels while having them both work competitively, effectively making them different characters.
But that is completely irrelevant to my point. I'm not talking about minute changes in character properties and how it can satisfy tournament players. I'm talking about casual players and the quest for giving characters their own personnality. "Jumps higher, blasts stronger, runs slower" is not a what I call originality.

Keep in mind that lots of companies/franchises have been successful by sticking with what worked with minor changes, like most franchises made by Capcom back in the late 80s and 90s, such as the NES Mega Man games.
That used to work 20 years ago. Not so much nowadays. But even then, as soon as Megaman X came in, people immediately jumped onto it. And for fighting games, yeah, SC [censored]ed up their transition. Take a game like UMvC3 and you've got a game which changed things, yet didn't mess up.

Because, as I already mentionned, changes and quality are unrelated. You can make changes and not do crap, and people will be happy. Alternatively, you can not do anything, but after 7 years of the same don't expect to receive more than a lukewarm reception.

Actually, even though characters like Fox and Falco are largely the same as Melee, playing them in PM IS a new experience while staying familiar. The mechanics and game around them have changed to the point where it's a different flavor. There are new techniques to use(Footstooling), new and improved characters to fight, and more environments and such that were not present in Melee Their Matchups and such are also very different in PM due to the larger variety of viable characters.
I know it's a tradition when talking metagame to blow out of proportion small things, but we're talking about regular players, who will use footstooling about as often as you can expect. The fact that Falco is a complete copy-paste of his Melee counterpart is way more of an eye-catcher than the fact that hey, some very specific mechanics are a bit different.

Basically, what you're telling me is that there's definitely things for casuals and the like to appreciate in PM... but I won't find them in the top tiers, which only the tournament players might enjoy.
And I say this is kind of a stupid approach.

If you want a Falco in PM that has what you want, I recommend doing it yourselves.
In case it was not obvious, I was talking about the current build of the game. .-.
"Do it yourselves" is nice and all, but what I'm kinda talking about is what the game is currently offering me and how I find it quite lackluster.

Quote from: HaloedHero
If I'm reading correctly, Miacis, you're saying this guy's friends, who are happy that we brought back Melee Falco, don't deserve to keep that, because there are people who would like to play something different. Forgive me if I don't think that's as unassailably fair as you do.
Nostalgia makes a poor mistress. She makes you yearn for what you already possess, and stops you from acquiring what you could possess.

I'm sure I can find a few people in my entourage who really missed the old Young Link, and would be most delighted to see it RESTORED TO HIS FORMER GLORY, yet would enjoy the new one even more.
Following your logic, you guys have been very unfairly breaking the hopes and dreams of all [insert non-top tier Melee character here] by changing their movesets. It's a logic which assumes that people cannot aquire new tastes, and it's kinda silly.

Quote from: HaloedHero
Would you completely ignore his opinion that it's OK for Fox and Falco to be similar and that it's not inherently lazy or boring?
I'd answer:
"I understand your concerns about the new moveset. However, we deemed that this major Melee fighter deserved a more distinctive move pool, while still keeping some of his aspects that made him so unique to play. No worries, though, he's retained a lot of tricks he's learnt from the Starfox team! He just uses them in his very own way, like the rebel he is. We've put a lot of effort into making him as balanced and effective a character as possible, and I hope you'll try it before making a judgement on him. He might even grow on you."
(This is a fun roleplay, btw.)

Oh, and please don't twist my words. I never said to make him completely different. I said to make him not a [censored]ing replica, aka, you should keep several similarities between the two to still have that "rivals" connection. You know, like for Wolf. (But without the silly Landmaster think I suppose. )
Even Mario and Luigi have more distinctive movesets, and they're [censored]ing brothers.

Quote from: HaloedHero
There is no "this is good game design" and "this is bad game design" no matter how many people try to reduce it to those terms.
You're not giving any good reason for a large part of your audience to play many of your characters. You may say it's a purely subjective flaw, but that doesn't make it true.

Quote from: HaloedHero
That is entirely an opinion, no matter how much you try to spin it as a fact.
Okay, it's an opinion. It's a strong, argumented opinion. What now?

Well going into this Falco argument.

Some people are already ticked off with some changes made to the P:M versions of Brawl newcomers...

Like a friend of mine who hates how Lucario basically became Lucaryu.

Or me with Lucas... I dislike the P:M version for getting rid of some of the things that made the character fun for me to play as. Zap Jumping, PK Fire into PK Shield to air dash... Etc etc.

I think Falco mains could stand to have their character changed a slight bit too.

Maybe not ALL the moves. But look at Ken and Ryu. Ken over the years has started getting his own moves. While still being VERY similar to Ryu, Ken puts his own spin on things. He also has new specials, and supers.

Why can't Falco have this? A few different normals and whatnot?

why not balance "brawl falco" in a melee context?

he is still very similar to melee falco in most of the animations, but has some new distinctive moves, and instead of thinking of ways to make these moves fit the P:M context you say, u know what? [censored] this [censored] and lets just make melee falco.

If there's any character that was restored to argue about, it would be Ganon, :P and apparently I'm the only Ganon main that doesn't like the P:M version a whole lot. I still like to use him occasionally, but I don't feel like I could rely on him to be my main like in Melee. Regardless, I'll just let it go since there are plenty of other characters to choose from. Hell, I love Snake, so I'll just main Ganon in Melee. Works for me since I have a different main in every SSB game anyway. Just my opinion, but someone who is really good at the game is someone who can master any character based on what they're given to work with.

Anyway, wouldn't getting Kraid to spin the platform have to be scripted to go specifically a certain direction at a certain time with a loop rather than randomly like the Melee version? Although, then there's Port Town which always moves the same way, but hits the stops in a random order so... jfdklsa;jifaf so confusing!

I have a definitive answer for you Miacis.
People in the competitive scene don't want to see Falco Luigified, and since we're catering more to them, it's more or less a given that he won't be Luigified.
If you want to change Falco, that's fine, but we're not going to do it any time soon.

That sounds more like an extremely vague dismissal than an actual answer.
Are you saying that nobody in the competitive scene objected to seeing the other characters change?
How can those anti-change-for-top-tiers people dislike something that hasn't even been tried?

What was the process when changing other movesets? Did you make a some sort of poll to see if people wanted to see changes or not before modifying anything? Or did you simply change stuff for the better, then fine tuned it?
If it's the latter, why was that method specifically not used for all the top tier characters?

More importantly, how can't the PMBR even seem to understand that it's a problem to give no incentive to play some of their characters for a major part of their audience (main ornot)?

Really, that raised more questions than it actually answered.

Nice try, but you're giving me an answer to a question I have never asked. If you had followed the discussion instead of taking turns with the others, you'd have noticed what I was actually asking (and suggesting). It's a lot more broad (and fascinating, if I may say so myself) than "Can you make Falco Luigified?"

Not that "people asked for it" is even much of an answer to the why of it all either. More like a polite version of the usual "just shut up already".

Makes me wonder if you guys even really know why you've been alienating casual players from all the Melee top tiers, or if you actually believed that everyone would love the bland replicas over having original content? oô

Post by: StarWaffle on December 16, 2013, 07:43:58 AM
So wait, what's the argument here?  Why was Falco re-cloned to mimic his role in melee and not other characters from that game? 
Alienating casual players?  Stricltly catering to Tourney[censored]s?

If every character was given a toon link/wolf/lucario revamp, wouldn't that be 100% alienating tourney[censored]s and strictly catering to casual players? Since they would be getting 0 characters from their beloved melee, giving them no reason (in their minds) to migrate over or even try out PM?

I mean yeah, if you JUST look at falco, it's completely 1 sided. Only caring about what one portion of the community thinks the character should be but in the grand scheme of things he's only 1 character. Maybe a mish-mosh of 100% melee and revamps isn't the best way to give something to everyone but I do think it's the only way in this case.

I think the way they handled this project was pretty acceptable. There are compromises for both casual and competitive players. Meleeheads get their what? 4-ish/41 carbon-copy melee characters and casual players also get a bunch of new [censored] to muk around with.  

In a game where the initial goal was to recreate melee falco in brawl, I'd say the project bloomed into something that surpringly gave a lot of *new* things for casual payers.

also fyi i'd like to classify myslef as a casual if it's at all relevant.

@StarWaffle: Maybe I'm having a bit of trouble making myself understood there, or I've really missed the point of Toon Link and friends.
The way I understand it, even characters that were given revamps were designed to be enjoyable for tourneyheads, not just casuals. The way the characters are described on the website sure makes it seem that way, in any case. Was I wrong in assuming that?

I just don't agree with the assumption that there is a large enough category of people in their audience who wouldn't accept to play anything BUT a 100% replica. Without the nostalgia goggles, ie, after having tried a revamped (but tourney-friendly) iteration.
And really, I'm taking Falco as the most obvious example (since that "replication" causes him to lose the little personality he had in Brawl), but since the beginning, all I've been talking about are the Melee top tiers.

I'm not saying it's currently all for tourneyheads or that the project is even bad. I just find it a bit disheartening that there is such an imbalance of tourney attaction VS casual attraction on those characters, whereas the others have been (so I've read) balanced to be enjoyable by both.

@SDoom: Thank you for the meaningful contribution. Sure, I enjoy wasting my time here, getting insulted left and right by you people, just for the sake of being a "snarky smartass".

so yeah, any pro-tips?



oh, and miacis, really, the point of P:M was to attract tourneyheads in the first place, those are priority number one, but while they were at it, they probably though, "hey, let's do some original stuff here and there that maybe some people might be happy with", and thus they took NEWCOMERs and made them even newer, so that indeed, casual players (not even the main target) would found it interesting to play with these characters, while tourneyheads still have their favourite characters in there. While i'd like to see a de-cloned falco probably as much as you, i do understand their point, tourneyheads had a couple of mains in melee, so they just gave them those as they were, and balanced the rest of the cast around that tier.

Well wavedash timing is different for each character mainly due to them all having different jump squat times.  There might be a chart of all of them somewhere which I can drop here if I find it.

I think the main thing about the guides is that pretty much all the tech in PM is from both Melee and Brawl already.  However I do agree that guides for PM would still be useful (I personally wouldn't be too good for making them as I'm not all that great at tech skill myself but I can definitely bring the point up).

As of this time, there are no videos or anything for guides and advice for PM characters. All I can tell you is the first thing you should try to do is L-Cancel consistently.

There is THIS 2006 video for Melee's ATs and over 80% is relevant and possible for PM, so take this for what you will.

No there probably isn't that many people who will refuse to play anything but 100% melee falco BUT trying to persuade meleeheads into even trying out PM is a hard task to accomplish. If they see that any aspect of their characters have changed I don't think they would take the game seriously enough to pick it up. They'll probably see the game as casual-trash. Making the top ~4 carbon copies will cover a big portion of the meleehead's mains since like 90% of their community (probably) uses the top tiers.

Yeah I think the rest of the cast was made to be enjoyed by both casual and competitive players but they needed means of getting meleeheads to even consider picking up the game. I'd imagine it'd be impossible to sell to them otherwise.

For me it's just a compromise. Sure I'd love to have a cool new falco or some new marth moves but who cares, I get to play solo squirtle with a down special! there's enough new content for me to play the game that I don't mind a few melee clones.

I think getting as many competitive players into PM as possible is a justifiable goal since IMO they are gonna be way more loyal in the long run. I feel a LOT of casuals are just gonna drop PM all together when a new smash bros game comes out (like most casual melee players did when brawl came out) Don't get me wrong I love me some smash64/melee every now and again but Smash4 will be the default.

I'm able to get L-cancelling consistently, though (although I use Z to cancel to avoid throwing up a shield right after), and I've finally managed to get Samus's SWD somewhat consistently, but anything else, like wave dashing/landing, I'm pretty bad at. Oh well.

@ StarWaffle: That's a lot of good points... I guess I hadn't thought about the strategic difficulty of getting melee tourneyheads into the game in the first place. That reason sure seems to make more sense overall than what I've been given so far.

I just find it kind of a shame that we're losing out on some original content just because it's difficult for people to try and pick up new stuff. Then again, I suppose I'm not much of an example either (Sm4sh looks incredibly dull to me, yet I still need to try it). But yeah, tactically-speaking, it makes way more sense to have it that way.

Thanks for the answer.
(You should be doing the PMBR's PR more often. You don't insult people or take pages to answer rather simple questions.)

I didn't give any reason because I didn't feel the need to and I had already addressed the 'argument' numerous times in the past and felt it was stale.  Halo had said whatever I wanted to say and more.

Woah, 3 pages of discussing and arguing for the sake of doing so. Lol

PM was made for the competitive scene, not for the casual players. They want to make Melee players feel they are stepping on known ground when using PM's Falco. Like or or not, it works for people not too involved in the tech side of the game.

Oh, give it up, SDo0m. Come on. Even I was satisfied by his response, and you know how often that happens.

Star did a much better job at explaining his position, and he did so in a much less thorny way than the rest of you did. Even though the argument's been brought up numerous times in the past, he gave a calm, warm, and more amiable response than, well, most of the people from the PMBR who have given responses.

Most of you at the PMBR could learn a thing or two from him.

Neither you nor Halo have been able to give me relevant arguments about my concerns. The least of courtesies when unable to provide help is to leave the place to someone who can, instead of insulting the guy who asked something you don't know what to answer to.

Now that the topic of rudeness is out of the way, I'll go back and play P:M, see if I can find more of those hidden quick-tap taunts. Peace.

I'd written that response before I'd seen yours or Miacis'.  Am I not allowed to justify my position especially considering that I wanted this whole situation to be at rest at least a page so?

You have to change them back manually, try looking for a common_5 file in the resources and extract the original potraits of the stage and importing them to the project m's common_5 file. Vbrawl's common 5 will not work for pm.

Nikita DESTROYED certain characters' recoveries when used right and there were even more creative uses for it, like aiming toward your feet in other situations so that when you get hit, the Nikita lands in the opponent's face.

Now the Tranq Gun is more limited, but has undergone more balancing and has it's uses. If you want to be able to sticky foes and whatnot, you need to build up some damage first. Foes can mash out of sleep too BTW.

As a reminder, try holding the guard Button(L or R) While holding Side B to reload the M9.

Here's how to tell;

If you aren't using Wario, you aren't doing it right.

His Up+B move is hilariously OP on Turbo Mode. All you have to do is hit someone with the Up+B and you can continue to use Up+B over and over until the player or players fall into the sky. Try it sometime.

A good way to practice wavesplashing is on Hyrule Castle, just try to go down the tower in a smooth back and forth pattern hitting each platform on the way down and try over and over again. Thats how I keep sharp.

I'd suggest training it with Samus or Mario, both of their wavedashing is pretty easy imo.

Believe me, it's tough to pick up at first, but once you get used to it, you pretty much can't unlearn it, it becomes second nature. I just picked it up a few months ago. Once you get it down, it's not that hard to do. It also varies from character to character so if you're using someone like Ganon or Falco or Marth or Samus, they all handle a bit differently, but that's really only an issue if you're trying to master a specific character.

Not exactly. You air dodge into the ground, keeping the momentum from the air dodge which makes you slide on the ground without having to run. (In the case of Falcon and Ganondorf, it allows you to moonwalk if you do it right.) Ground distance varies based on the angle of the air dodge. Probably not quite the best way to put it, but I'm no expert on the subject, I just do it.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.0 discussion
Post by: BlueBrain on December 23, 2013, 03:00:24 PM
well, it's low hopping, and air dodge towards the ground in an angle without actually leaving the floor, making you slide a bit...
the difference between character really only is in how long he takes to "go aerial", and how far he slides... luigi is crazy with his slipperyness...

I realize that you don't HAVE to, but it's almost impossible to moonwalk with someone like Ganondorf if you don't. The farthest I've gotten him to go without wavedashing is about... nowhere. Literally the spot where he started. Link on the other hand can do it pretty well without wavedashing, better than anyone else as far as I know.

Lets say you dash to the right, you would want to get your control stick to the left as fast as possible after the dash. Sounds simple, but.. you'll have to do kind of an "hadouken" motion, if you don't you'll end up with a simple dashdance.
(yes, I know I'm awful at explaining.)

Help With Moonwalking (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGJeThNnbyw#)

how does moonwalking even work?


It basically tricks the game into letting your character run backwards by changing direction without tilting the stick the other direction, but rotating it instead.

One example would be, you could be facing right with Falcon, but with moonwalking, you move left while facing right, allowing you to do something like a reversed knee or something like that. It's a tricky move to pull off, especially with someone like Ganondorf. Characters like Falcon and Link (for some reason) can do pretty well without wavedashing, but Ganon has very little momentum from the start of his dash since he's so slow, so he can't go very far without wavedashing into his moonwalk. Still, it can be done, as shown by Bizzarroflame.  :af:

It's amazing what Ganon is actually capable of doing.

So I finally played 3.0. here at home.

I tried Turbo Mode, and I have to say, it feels awkward, and I find it hard to get combos going, or when I start them, I find it very hard to keep them up.

to get anything done in turbo you need a lot of practice, but you can get very quick kills with it xD

I noticed that.

For example, Lucario and Mewtwo are definitely my favorite character's to play, but...

- With Lucario, I try to start a combo, but he moves so fast, it's hard for my fingers to keep up and before I know it, I'm simply button-mashing trying to keep it going, which fails of course.

-With Mewtwo. A lot of his moves feel stiff and clunky to me instead of fluid and organic as the site claims with it's page. The moves that felt the most clunky to me were Mewtwo's Jab Combo, his Down-Smash, and his F-Smash. All of them seem to have a similar one-two action as Captain Falcon's Falcon Punch in Smash 64, and even where I managed to on-hit-cancel with them, their KB made continuing the chain nearly impossible. That probably has a lot to do with myself rather than the character though, but it was pretty frustrating.

I only use his down air while levitating. And it looks cool if you pull it off.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.0 discussion
Post by: KingJigglypuff on December 28, 2013, 02:26:01 PM
I find Mewtwo's levitation to be very useful in many aspects.

-Recovering from an attack's cooldown offstage. Ex: Normally I would have SD with a failed Down Air. But with his levitation, I can recover from my failed spike/edgeguard attempt, along with Teleport.
-Spacing by jumping, then levitating to a distant platform or the opposite side of the stage to charge up a Shadow Ball.
-Recovering from being launched off the stage.

I can never make use of its offensive capabilities though. xD

Run to the enemy, quickly face the other direction, short hop, levitate, and do back airs.

I love Mewtwo's tail whips.

I can work with just about any character I have, but I usually tend to prefer heavier characters like Ganon, Link, and Falcon, so I was never great with Mewtwo. I respect the new abilities the PMBR have given him, but he's just not really for me, at least from a competitive stand point. I didn't really care for Roy much in Melee either, but I actually really like him in PM. I'm just so used to Marth's sweet spots so I miss half of the time with Roy's.

I can use him fairly well with a bit of practice, but one thing I've never been able to get down is his counter timing. Not the most useful move he has, but Marth's feels so easy to me compared to Roy's. I like some of Roy's new moves better, the tilts especially, but I can never hit his DAir when it really counts. I'll miss it 10 times in a row trying over a ledge for a kill, then randomly hit it when I don't mean to above the stage. At least I can usually get his BAir.

This launcher is mainly for those who use the hackless method though you CAN use it with homebrew as well. This launcher makes both Riivo and Gecko OS obsolete by allowing SDHC support! The launcher also lets you install and update Project M too.

I prefer the Xenogears font myself. *SHOT*

It's more Xenoblade then gears, but I still think that it works better for like a logo, not every menu in the game.

That's an issue that was JUST addressed....

Unfortunately no one is cooperating with me to get the link with the fix. -_-

Edit: The issue was because of the Launcher, which has been fixed, so get the updated launcher on the site.

BTW M22K and I reimported all our alt costumes meaning they no longer lag.
I supposed they have been tristripped? Would there be enough space to add Roy's sheath?

Tristrip and Node Fixed. Believe it or not, a lot of our (Our as in everyone who imports models to Brawl, not just PM and kittens here)custom rigs use values more specific than the VBrawl models, and that's bad as it can inflate file size AND cause lag.

They should get a GC controller.

I'm pretty sure this works with the Classic Controller too, just like the stage strike feature (which doesn't work with Wiimote/WiiChuck).
This is false, you press the "-" button to strike stages on WiiChuk.

Did Crown Jigglypuff, Fairy Jigglypuff, and Fire Peach change at all? If I'm remembering correctly, they didn't have the caution sign, so I'm wondering if they received the same changes.

We only imported the wings and crown, not the entire Jiggly model. So lag pretty much never existed with them, since the added parts are a small part of the model.

Quote from: Roy's Melee Trophy Description
While Roy's moves are well balanced, he's a little on the slow side, and doesn't excel at midair combat. His blade, the Sword of Seals, gives him excellent reach, and makes his Double-Edge Dance slightly different than Marth's Dancing Blade. When it's fully charged, Roy's destructive Flare Blade delivers an instant KO.

30 external links for a community mod, half of them directly linking to the P:M website? 720 words to explain such a straightforward development cycle, yet not any mention of the hacking community? Part of the Smash Bros. series??

I'm not sure what I was expecting but geez. Talk about obvious advertising.

They absolutely should do that. No one has pulled off some of the ridiculous hacks that those guys have. Hundreds of thousands of downloads as well, it may as well be counted as it's own game. I believe Ver 3.02 has been downloaded like 300,000 times already and it's been out for what, maybe two to three weeks maybe?

That may be somewhat impressive in the small world of SSBB hacking, but in the grand scheme of video games in general, it's barely more than a succesful mod. You know, an alteration of an existing game, where 90% of the content was provided by studios working for Nintendo. Nintendo, who last time I checked never gave any permission for people to mod their game.

Besides, you don't see The Stanley Parable sitting in the "Half-Life series" category on Wikipedia, and you don't see random guy journalists pretending it's the best HL game. And that mod had way more thought and uniqueness put into it than P:M, sorry to say.
There's being enthusiastic, and then there's just overstepping boundaries. Player numbers does not a game make.

I thought it was already on Twitch. I could have sworn it was listed as Project M during APEX. Of course, there was so much Smash at APEX, it was hard to keep up with them all. I missed most of Smash 64, but I caught most of Melee, PM Top 8, and various bits of Brawl. Fun stuff to watch. Kage Vs. MattDotZeb rematch. Hype.

During Apex, they usually set the game to either Melee or Brawl while Project M was happening.

I finally jumped aboard the bandwagon and played Project M on my own Wii for the first time. The quality is astounding, and whoever programmed that A.I., I gotta commend you. This is the most challenging A.I. I've ever played against in Smash Bros. in all my life. At least it doesn't cheat and camp around like normal Brawl's. XD The mod just feels legit! And I gotta thank whoever decided to include Giga Bowser as a player in 3.0. As a former hacker and Giga main in Melee, it feels great to be able to pick him up and play him again. Speed and gravity are great.

Overall a positive experience.

Dude, if you're having problems with something as simple as a Pikachu spamming his neutral B I don't know what to tell you. Just jump over them if your character doesn't have a reflector Fox! <3 or, you know, shield them.
That Ivysaur tech seems pretty interesting, too. I don't see it being very useful against Mario or Fox recovering, so it's not like I'd really have to care about it. ;p

That's still a little different than Mario's fireballs/pills or Pikachu's Thunder. It's one thing to use them to approach or space yourself, but CPUs mostly just spam them repeatedly unless you're right on top of them. It's also incredibly difficult to have that good of aim like Armada, not to mention, there was a purpose to it other than just plain attacking an opponent.

dont even make me start about suicide... xD

NEVER play on Port Town. I can't help it because I love F-Zero, but if you want a serious match, go somewhere else. I usually end up trying to save the AI every time since they literally just walk to the side and jump off on certain parts. :P

If it wasn't for Foxs fast falling speed the arrows wouldn't have been nearly as useful.
F-Air Neutral B F-Air only really works on fast fallers, which was like his go to combo against M2K's Fox.

a good chunk of Rel ports do work in PM, tho some characters have special coding, (samus, kirby, etc) those characters would need to have those codes removed for you to replace them. or else you may get undesirable resuts. (even then they may not work cause a few of the codes are needed to make those players work in game)

I had an idea and i was wondering if it was possible
Say the PMBR wanted pichu playable and didnt want to waste a clone slot. Would it be possible if pikachus slot was fitpikachu00-05 and then they made a new css slot for say fitpikachu06-09 for pichu? Like just the css icon loads those costumes from pikachus file. (This could go for dr mario and younglink)
I actually had a similar idea before, but no one is really clamoring for Pichu/Young Link, so I didn't bother suggesting it.

Would be cool, though.

I hope there will be a Forwarder Channel for Project M in the next update. There's an unofficial one, but I'm not sure if it works on PAL consoles or not. It'd be nice to see a cool channel on the Wii Menu that directly loads the Project M launcher or even the game, so you don't always need to enter the Homebrew Channel (even though the launcher sometimes doesn't load :/ ).

Still, I really love Project M. Mewtwo and Roy conviced me using it as well, especially the faster gameplay. My friends and I often play it, I wonder what they will think about Project M.

I'm not really sure how the Project M launcher works but in the video, it loads Gecko OS so I'm pretty curious about the compatibility. Having a channel made by the team might be perfect.

I think it does... Because, as you said, there are some weird issues occuring with the Turbo Mode with some PSAs. The funniest thing to do is using Brawl Minus' PSAs with Turbo xD

Why would they use that when they've made their own renders for literally everything else. You've been had.

Yeah, last I remember Dantarion was messing around with using the Ice Climbers' spawning routines (I forget the technical lingo) on characters other than the Ice Climbers. I'm guessing he got it working properly.

Hey guys audiobronymixer here. And today I'm proposing a ridiculous challenge I have ever imagined. Its called : THE GIGADURANCE !!! Here are the requirements :

1. Must use full code set Project M 3.0 (Its okay to use WiFi, its just more convenient to use full).

2. Must be against Giga Browser (Hold R When you Select him and let go when you reach the stage selection,you can also use a second controller on were the CPU is and Activate him the same way) .

 3. NO ITEMS!  Not even the smash ball.

4. No time limits.

5. The player can have between 1-5 stocks.Giga Bowser however, Will have a full 30 Stocks .

6. You must fight him only on Final destination and Battlefield.

7. It's okay to use the reset button code (which is L+R+Y+A+START) as long as you don't forfeit the match. Keep Trying!!

So...Do YOU have what it takes to BEAT him?  Let me know if you think this is a crazy idea and if you did let me know how many stocks you took off of him before you died completely.

P.S. I've token off at least 19 stocks before I died completely using 5 stocks.

Good Luck . . .Your going to need it

You should also specify the Level Giga Bowser should be at. Since someone can go through that loophole and make him Lv. 1.

From what I've gathered, he's the person who was in charge with designing most of what the current Zelda moveset is. There's been some screenshots of a chatroom where he was talking about resigning because the backroom wants to turn "his" Zelda back into another of the Melee clones, or something like that. The guys on the reddit thread seemed pretty annoyed by a change like that.

You all know my opinion about reusing assets from Melee, but I just can't comprehend why there's such an urge to destroy good creative work like that. It's not really Falco anymore, when the team was trying to gather momentum for the birthing project. Now it's just legit going backwards.

Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: Vigilante on April 07, 2014, 04:30:02 PM
The one who formulated the response was Vanguard, not me actually.

Someone took something Zhime said about Zelda and misinterpreted it and made a huge deal out of it. I'm not sure why it's been taken down, since we had no hand in this. Perhaps the user took it down himself? I'm not quite familiar with how Reddit works, but at the very least, I know we haven't removed it.

Unlike what was stated in the reddit post, we are still good friends with Zhime, but he has moved to Japan for a personal project of his, and he has less opportunities to work on and promote Project M. It sucks that he had to leave, because he's such a fun person to talk to, but we understand that he has his priorities and we wish him well (and we hope to talk to you soon again buddy).

Zhime himself responded that he bears no ill-will toward the PMBR for his leave and believes in this project. His only concern was that with Ryoko and himself being less involved, there isn't a dedicated Zelda player in the BR (albeit I'd like to say that Magus is an extremely talented Zelda user).

As for concerns about Zelda... they've been blown waaaay out of proportion, and the original poster as well as Zhime even admitted to that (thanks btw, that was cool of you). We're not making Melee Zelda again. That'd be the death of creativity. That wa smore of an assumption someone made along the line of discussion. Zhime never stated that.

I hope that cleared everything up, and thanks again for supporting Project M guys.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: Miacis on April 07, 2014, 04:40:31 PM
(I'm sure Zhime will be delighted by such continuous outbursts of kindness, but is this really the place for the random 2nd-person praise...?)

Huh. Odd, I do remember talks about something with Zelda which was being changed and causing trouble, either in the chat logs or in Vanguard's post. (My bad on the name)

I didn't mean to imply it was closed by you though. It just seemed odd that the author closed it so fast.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: Vigilante on April 07, 2014, 05:49:07 PM
That's okay, you are not the first to confuse Vanguard with me, lol.

And yeah, no trouble. Zhime came himself to fix the issue, people made assumptions on comments he made and blew it out of proportions, unfortunately.

As for why it was closed, I think that the author removed it at Zhime's request? I' not sure to be honest.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch

There we go, found a link to the deleted thread (http://www.reddit.com/r/SSBPM/comments/22d8ic/zhime_resigns_from_pmbr_over_upcoming_zelda/) now that I'm on my "good computer." And a link to the pictures (http://imgur.com/a/HAoL8) too.

Edit: By an unfortunate turn of events, the aforementionned pictures seem to have ~mysteriously~ disappeared right after I posted here. No worries though, I've got this in the bag:

Original pictures: 1 (http://lpix.org/1649130/Zhime1.png) 2 (http://lpix.org/1649131/Zhime2.png) 3 (http://lpix.org/1649132/Zhime3.png) 4 (http://lpix.org/1649133/Zhime4.png)

(http://lpix.org/1649195/Zhime3+.png)
(http://lpix.org/1649196/Zhime4+.png)

Zhime does seem to want to redirect any sort of drama from his public figure and the PMBR, but apparently I wasn't exactly wrong in saying his main reason for leaving the PMBR was because of a strong disagreement over design choices on Zelda. That Japan thing certainly doesn't seem like the main thing at all.

He also does seem to do a lot of damage control in that public post as opposed to that chat's brutal honesty. There's talk about it like it's been awhile and forgotten, but unless the OP is very much lying about the date, AND photoshopped the screenshots, he was still mad enough about it just recently. At least enough to empty his basket on a random internet player.

The Melee thing seems to have just been speculation though, which is probably why Nano only adressed that specific point. At least you guys seem to still be BFFs. That sure is at least consistant in every single post.

...Still kinda funny to see talks about "no ill-will" in public, and then "stupid/biased/they won't listen to me/I'm the one being targetted" being thrown around in private.

Not happening dude. Trust me. Their aim isn't to do what the new Smash is doing if the way the movesets currently are is any indication. Not only that, giving Zelda the Phantom Slash would just be begging for a lawsuit.

Maybe they changed perspectives? Tons of projects do that. They start with one goal and modify it as time passes in order to make the project better...

No matter the fact this project is exceedingly Melee-centric, and your Twitter and Youtube handles clearly say "ProjectMelee"?  r)
Just letting you know, the current Twitter handle is "ProjectMGame", not "ProjectMelee".
As for the YouTube handle, it's antiquated, and since it's possible to change the display name, it's not a big deal.

And in case people are wondering, the 'M' in Project M does refers to Melee, but it's not a synonym to the latter, nor does it dictate our overall design goals (e.g. Lucario).


P.S.
Samus' current FTilt and FSmash have been inspired by Smash4.
Interesting trivia perhaps?

Very interesting trivia indeed. Makes me wonder if any other characters moves (like Yoshi's U tilt) was inspired by SMB4 or something .

I know. It's basic rebranding. Trying to stray away from the original name, and thus avoid being chained up to "Melee" and everything it entails.

It's just that saying it "doesn't stand for Melee" is about as relevant as telling me that the name KFC has nothing to do with Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Let's get one thing straight. They said it plays like Melee, but its not Melee. "Like" not "Is". So any fanboy can quickly assume that the M stands for Melee Which can stand for ANYTHING . But hey, at the end of the day, I sit on my couch, smoke a cig, and think to myself and say "if you like the thing, enjoy it."

Hi! I dunno if I can ask this here, but I wanted to know if someone knows how to enable screen hits (when a character is sent flying) in PM, I watched the Turbo Tuesday video about Samus, two weeks ago, and at some point I saw how Ganondorf was sent flying and made a screen hit, so I believe it is possible to enable that feature within the mod. I'm not into competitive play, so I don't care about that "screen hits are quicker than being sent flying to the background, therefore it's a matter of luck who wins when players are sento to the background at the same time" thing.

Thanks in advance :)

What’s going on guys? TheDarkMysteryMan here and today I’m here to present you with another challenge for Project M.

!!THE BOW WOW ORGY CHALLENGE!!

So the Challenge itself is small; however, it can be perhaps the most difficult challenge I can think of at this time (Maybe even harder than the GIGADURANCE.)

So here’s the rundown:

1. The player must start a team battle against three CPU’s (All level 9.)

2. All CPU’s are Bowser (No surprise.)

3. The CPU’s must all be allies (Same team) and must be against you.

4. Friendly fire must be off.

5. All players must have 4 stocks.

6. NO ITEMS! (Not even the smash ball.)

7. Time limit is the standard default (8 minutes.)

8. The battle must be fought on Final Destination (Nowhere else.)

So…anyone think they can handle it?

Sadly I couldn’t. I was barely even able to kill 6 of them.
If you think this is easy, then by all means go right ahead and try, but don’t blame me when you throw your controller across the room from the sheer anger this challenge will bring you.

I gave you guys the warning.
If you’re going to try, then good luck to you…you’re going to need it.

I made that challenge before you did, except it was on Turbo Mode. So yeah. I did it before anybody else did. And Bowsers are easy to kill. Try 3 Ness, and then come back.

I hate to say this, but has anyone else noticed when you play through classic in intense, all your skills are just...GONE!

I mean hear me out on this. I take on at least 3 CPU's on team's with no friendly fire, and come out with no problems (I know you guy's can do the same aswell. Not trying to say I'm the best or anything,) but as soon as i go into classic mode, i get my butt kicked by everyone...EVERYONE! I mean, here's an example that actually happens to me all the time:

As soon as the round starts, I would get combo's left and right, get there health at a high percentage, and go for the kill. Everything sound's like it's going fine and dandy right? Nope.

They wont die when i put them even above 120%, even with a sweetspot, they some how get me everytime i come down from getting juggled in the air for (which i always get away from, but yet, they always find a way to continue it,)and kill me at around 70%...with a sour spot...towards the ceiling...when i'm Ganondorf. :rage:

Anyone else had this experience or had something like it?

Yea, it's Brawl gameplay but it's essentionally the same thing.

I should probably add that the Momentum Cancel part does not apply to Melee and P:M since you can't attack or air dodge out of hitstun.

Trust me. I know about D.I. and i try my very best to do it, but it feels like im always too late to slam the joysticks the other direction, but it never goes for my favor...at all.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: Zikkh on May 06, 2014, 11:54:35 AM
Well you have to hold the direction before you get hit, not while you're getting hit or while you're flying. So basically say you used some really laggy move, since you know the opponent is gonna punish you for that you just hold the direction you want to DI towards as you're still in landing lag. Or when you're getting grabbed, just hold the direction you feel would give you the best chances at surviving.

Also, since you're playing against CPUs.. they can basically just always "react" to your attacks anyway, so it shouldn't be too surprising for them to live that long.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: TheDarkMysteryMan on May 06, 2014, 12:03:36 PM
I knew about DI input before impact. IT's just in classic only is where ALL of my move's and skills go down the drain. I mean, you try to go against three rabid ness's or lucas's with all of the skill and knowledge you know and survive without losing a stock. ;)

Don't worry. PM won't affect Smash 4's sales in a big way. Just the people who refuse to change and adapt won't buy it.

The majority of people will still buy Smash 4, regardless if it's competitive or not. Myself included.

Sakurai himself stated that he wanted to have Smash Bros. stay as a party fighter. So if they don't like that route, then stick to Melee/PM and leave the fans of slower play alone. While I do enjoy Melee/PM more than Brawl, I'll still give Smash 4 a try.

But let's not turn this into a Melee/PM vs Brawl/Smash 4 debate/argument.

I remembered your guys' import last night and ended up adding that, haha. She looks neato, by the way.


That reminds me though, I really hope they make her default color her red team color and do away with that dumb pink one. I figure that'd be easily done through codes, but I just swapped them manually and put Nano's PED Samus over the default and that's just as good I guess.

That won't happen simply because of Zero Suit's standard costume being blue. Wouldn't fit with the red team. Probably why Nintendo switched it to the pink costume in the first place.

That Dark Suit import is indeed pretty sick. Also, Nano did the PED Suit import right?... Along with the Light Suit that is now an official alt... Hmm...

Unless they completely disabled transforming mid-match, maybe? Then they'd be totally separate characters and you could mix and match costumes as you please.... I think.

I don't know. Samus is an odd one. She's one of the few characters that (as far as I know) has never been cloned or ported. I would think even as simple as it sounds, it would take a lot of coding. There is a really old code out there that stops her transformations, but I would also think the game would still consider them together no matter what you do. I'm surprised they managed to get it to allow you can select both of their defaults at the same time with separate players. If anyone can do it, it's the PMBR I suppose.

Saw this one when it first came out and I can't believe Fox and Falco are at the top. Sonic, Ivysaur, Pit, Meta Knight, Diddy, and Zelda should all be above them. All I've heard about those two, especially Falco, is that they aren't similar enough to Melee. I used to main Falco in both Melee and Brawl and I like PM Falco better. Ganon, not as much, but still. Also, Bowser is by no means bad either and he's pretty low, I guess the idea is that regardless of where a character is ranked, the gap isn't very big.

CT's preliminary tier list is a complete and total farce. The players that participated in making that list haven't seen/played a third of the characters in actual bracket matches due to nobody using them in mid/high level matches.

It's too early for an accurate tier list for PM anyway.

I have nothing to say on the matter, cause believe it or not, I expected at least Fox or Falco to be the highest on the list.

Mewtwo is way too low on that.
Samus is WAAAY too low too.
Bowser is way too low.
Squirtle is too high.
Jigglypuff is pretty horrible in P:M becouse of recoverys being so stupidly good overall, so she should be like at least bottom 5.

And yea, characters like G&W are so low on that becouse nobody knows what they're capable of yet.

And I also don't see Fox or Falco still being the best characters, they're still godly, but there's so many new characters that just seem to win against them really consistently.
But then again, it's way too early to even say that, too.

Thank you for answering my question kind sir ^_^'



I believe tier lists are just there to help people choose, in the end, its all about the player himself rather than the list.

Using TF2 for example, Spies were bottomtier until  2002, players begun experimenting, and they are one of the most annoying classes to deal with today.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: Mochtroid127 on July 04, 2014, 10:22:49 AM
Look at what Amsa has done with Yoshi, Axe with Pikachu, Darrell, Hugs, and now Plup with Samus, and Kage, Loki, and Bizzaro Flame with Ganon. All High-Mid tier or lower or at least for now.

Characters are 'better' based on how many options they have in every possible situation and how easily they can do what they want with their opponent, which is why you don't usually see Bowser beating Fox, but it's not impossible. It's just that based on previous results, Fox wins most of the time because of what he can do, so Bowser is considered to be at a disadvantage in that matchup. That's all tiers are. People misinterpret it though that tier mean you have to play Fox to be good.

The best players in the world can all play Fox, Falco, or both, but most of them have a different character they use a lot as well. Mew2King has Sheik and Marth and can pretty much play any character, Mango has Falcon and Puff among others, Armada (probably the best player in the world) mains Peach and has an amazing Young Link, PP has a Marth, the list goes on. These days, you're expected to be able to play one of the Star Fox characters at least as a secondary for 20XX. I refuse. Falco is fun, but I'll never main him again. I have been working on Marth and Sheik though. Long live Ganon!

Won't that be too much to handle?

I mean, even with the Brawl EX, they might still release new characters very slowly due to balance/glitch testing, its not like they will make the next version and have all slots taken, or 1/4 of it so to speak.

I would not make a difference at all if you think about it.

Can you add unlimited amounts of like, custom voices to BrawlEX? Becouse I feel like the only reason they're sticking with "adding 7 characters only" is so they can replace the bosses voices for the characters.

But then again.. there's way more than just 7 bosses in the game right? Maybe some of them don't have enough sfx files to edit or something, I don't know.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: dRage on July 08, 2014, 12:31:12 PM
I'd honestly prefer if they didn't go beyond the 7 additional characters limit (that's 5 more). We are at 41 and the game must already be a pain to balance at this point. Introducing a new character now means balancing that character around 41 matchups. Which means they need to make sure this new character does not completely dominate any of the existing characters but also does not get completely wrecked by any of them. I'd much rather have them focus on polishing the current roster up and then let the metagame evolve on its own.

Not to mention learning all these matchups in order to be able to compete in tournaments can become a little overwhelming.

Hey that's my video! :)

Honestly the codes used for that come close to Project M, but it still can't compare. The original PM plays much smoother than the versions that people have tried to make that are compatible with BrawlEx. I'm not sure why though... even with the same codes. It's just not the same.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: 3.02 patch
Post by: Eternal Yoshi on July 08, 2014, 02:47:20 PM
OK Time to answer why for real.

The real reason we aren't using BrawlEx is because it is not as stable as our Clone Engine at this point and BrawlEx also has other problems that our Clone Engine does not.

For example, 1 out of 3 times we've tested BrawlEx with PM or in Brawl, Battlefield's My Music gets corrupted and crashes the game when choosing the stage in My Music, even without codes. Even if it can be fixed, it is very irresponsible to include a code/codeset that would damage save data in any way because of how widespread PM is at this point. While you may know how to fix it, most of the players of PM, competitive or otherwise, do not, and having that in there would create the stigma that PM corrupts save data, which is something a mod creator never wants.

Also, there's a 1 in 4 chance that common2.pac/bx_fighter.rel won't load properly when using BrawlEx, causing the game to crash on the strap screen.

Not only that, but our clone engine allows for (Limited space) Kirby Hats and has more flexibility with other codes.

The cost and consequences of using BrawlEx officially in Project M far outweighs the pros of allowing custom rosters that only you guys would know how to fully utilize.

Because it's not nearly as user friendly as BrawlEx. Only 2 users can edit it cleanly without glitches and even that takes a while.

What I wonder is, if only two people in the world can customize that system, is it really that worthwhile to stick with it? You talk about more flexibility with other codes, but from the sounds of how complicated that Engine is to set up, it sounds more like an eldritch horror as far as programming goes.

Wouldn't researching ways to go with BrawlEx and improve from there make for a much safer route? I mean, I'm not saying "drop everything, fix BrawlEx, and have it in the next version of P:M." I'm talking about a longer term goal there.

Right now you have two people to work on it. Not only would the really slow process probably be faster if more people could work on it, but what if one or both leave the team for a variety of reasons? What if they happen to be huge jerks and you really need to kick them out of the team?

Our team focuses on Project M, and Project M only. We don't need a bunch of people to work on the clone engine. If we want a slot added to the roster, we ask nicely, and they add it for us.

There is no need for to move to a new engine. The coders who came up with the codes did it because they wanted too. Yeah, it may take up more time, but it is worth it when avoiding the glitches and bugs that BrawlEx has.

If they want to fix BrawlEx, then it would pretty much be the same as our clone engine. Why would they use their time to fix something else, when we have a similar product that works not only the same, but slightly better?

Adding onto that, as I was taught by my second programming instructor (I'm not fluent in coding, just the basic [censored] mind you), if a code isn't user-friendly, it's bad coding design.

Not only that, the fact it takes so long to edit it cleanly also speaks of badly designed code, and make me wonder if the people who coded it will ever go over it and simplify the coding.

To use a metaphor: "Never complete a task in 3 actions when you can do it in 1."

@Nano:

I think you misunderstand the something here. The fact the coding is so cumbersome to edit is a problem. A problem that should be fixed because it would increase your team's productivity and ability to get these updates out faster instead of taking eons upon eons.

Furthermore, having more people who can edit the code would also have the same effect: increasing productivity and allowing you to get things done faster, cause four coders are better than two.

You do need a larger group of people to work on the clone engine, cause the way it sounds, Nano, editing the damn thing by itself is 2 adventures and a half.

You're leaving yourselves tied to anchors for the sake of what, exactly?

As of now, the "1 action" in this situation is not as stable as the "3 action". That by itself is a red flag. When the "1 action" becomes stable enough to be a fair comparison, we would take a more serious consideration.

Also most of the CE related work comes from animating and balancing actually. Mewtwo, for example, took months to animate and to look good, and this was before we had the Maya method. Even with the Maya method and touch, it still takes a long time to get it balanced and animated to a level that's up to our standards. This is on top of dealing with other things both PM related and when real life comes into play.

We have Dantarion, ds22 and even wiiztec now, who are also excellent coders. Phantom Wings was just one of the founding fathers of Brawl Modding.

The problem here is you're assuming I'm talking about (or so it sounds to me) Using BrawlEX vs your Clone Engine. I'm not.

I'm talking about Project M's Clone Engine and that alone. The fact the Clone Engine is so cumbersome to edit is a problem, and means the coding needs to be optimized if it hasn't been to the fullest already, and if it has, it needs to be made simpler.

To me the fact you're all so willing to anchor down your progress with such cumbersome code is pure nonsense.

Because after some tweaking, it would end up faster (to set up), safer (for the project) and better (being more tightly programmed, so more stable). And in the long run, that could be profitable?

I don't think we're communicating properly right now. I'm not saying BrawlEx is better today. Right now, both system have their flaws and advantages.
But to me, it seems the flaws of BrawlEx are easier to fix than the CE ones.

Post by: Spex130 on July 08, 2014, 06:33:10 PM
Well, putting rising hostilities and arguments aside for a sec and moving to your point, Velen, here's my personal opinion.

Don't forget that the PMBR and such is a large group of specialists. They do the parts that they do best, and leave the things they aren't good at to everyone else, right? Yeah, there's more than 2 people at least capable of editing the engine. But also remember that not everyone wants to focus on that. The people capable of editing the engine are the people who want to be capable of editing the engine.

PW's engine is optimized to be user friendly simply because of the way it would be used, you know? Not everyone is as technical as PW, so he specifically set it up so that folks who wanted to put the work in could learn it by themselves. It's a tool set up so that people can take it and create their own result. A module meant to be loaded into a larger result with its potential stretched out per user.

Now, with that, remember that the PM Clone Engine is aiming for a different result. They don't care so much about the process so much as the result, right? This isn't an Engine where they don't know how far it will stretch. This also isn't an Engine which is going to be handled by hands who don't know how it works. This isn't a module, it's a backbone. It's eventually going to harden into a solid state where there won't be any edits from the PMBR side. And at that point, it will be most stable because it's built to work into the system around it.

Sure, I guess it'd be possible to sit the entire back room down and teach them the clone engine. It's not an impossible feat, the PMBR is collectively very smart. They could also sit down and rework the entire engine. Like I said, they're smart. But to the PMBR, that's a waste of time. They're specialists. Why take the video editor and force him to learn how to import? He's a video editor, let him work his craft. Sitting down and reworking the engine only helps those who want to know how it works. And the only people who want to know how it works already know how it works. It would only serve to slow them down, you know?

Post by: Velen on July 08, 2014, 06:55:26 PM
While it is your personal opinion as you painstakingly made clear, Spex, my problem is your exaggeration of what I'm saying. Not everyone needs to learn, hell, I think it would make Project M rather lackluster and buggy if every single person on the team had input. Fact remains, 3, 4 or even 5 heads are better than two.

BrawlEX and the Clone Engine however, perform the same function. The result is adding more characters (or slots) that can be used for new characters or extra costumes. They are two different codesets achieving the same end through different means.

The problem with the Clone Engine as it stands is that it takes a very long time and the precision of a surgeon to edit it without causing problems, according to EY's earlier answer, and only two people know how to do that by any stretch. You're dragging your collective feet along simply because that's how you want it to be, the way you make it sound.

It doesn't matter how collectively smart the PMBR is if the trappings of your own decisions end up causing you problems that make doing the work a headache.

To clarify: I am impartial, despite the above, of whether you use the Clone Engine or BrawlEX, but the fact still remains: if you having a cumbersome code slows down your progress, then you should have other people fluent in coding look at it and let them suggest improvements. Being harder to edit doesn't make it more solid.

Interesting indeed, but I honestly don't see what most of these videos have to do with P:M. Balancing for Skill does seem pretty relevant since I don't think that much effort is put into the balancing of characters to favor non-competitive skills. But for the others, I think we'd need a bit of an explanation as to why they would be pertinent to this specific project.

As a side-note, it got drowned out by large walls of texts but I'm still waiting for an answer as to my suggestion of switching to BrawlEx on the long-term.

You got your answer already in the posts of the previous page. Please read them for your answer.
Maybe I missed something crucial, but all I've seen were reasons why the PMBR does not wish to replace the CE in its current state with BrawlEx (in its current state).

I'm asking about directing development towards fixing the flaws of BrawlEx instead of having to deal with the CE being slower, less safe and less tightly programmed. (Also less slots, which I guess the PMBR won't consider a problem until it becomes one.)

Right now BrawlEx has three flaws, you said, and none of them sound like they need to rerite the whole code to be fixed. In comparison, I don't think there is a way to fix the CE's flaws without basically reconstructing it. If I'm wrong, feel free to tell me, since you probably know more about it than Nano or me. That's why I was asking.

It's a question about the better(?) base to elaborate on, not on the current state of one engine vs the other.

Also, I still don't have an answer for this:
Didn't you just say that you can't release the CE because it super-complicated and long to set up? .-.
If what is taking time is actually animating and balancing, then I don't see what the big deal is. Anyone can do that without needing to tune everything to PGM Melee standards.
Once again, if I'm taking the time to ask, it's because I didn't get any answer.

***
As a side-note: sorry to say, but why is it that when there's a direct question asked to the PMBR, it always takes three pages to get a straight, not-tiptoey answer?
I had that with the whole Falco clone discussion. With Zhine leaving the team peacefully (hah). With the whole "P:M is basically Melee 2.0" stuff. I had that with every goddam time ds22 and Dant were flipping their [censored] in Programming. Apparently mk64 also had to deal with that considering the way he was asking about Waluigi.
And now again.

This is very very irritating. Is the master credits list even done yet? About a month ago, I pointed out that P:M barely credits anybody in the SSBB Hacking community besides their "stars" and was assured people were starting to work on it.
What's the current state of things? (And will I need to fill 3 more pages to get that answer?)

Post by: Velen on July 12, 2014, 04:38:16 PM
Allow me to (try to) explain, Mia.

The first video is relevant because of the mechanics of the characters in the game, and because of what Project M's goal is: to be a more competitive fighting game, rather than a Party Fighter. This also ties into the fact some things in Melee were brought back into Project M. Mechanics most people outside of competitive play have never heard of, don't understand very well, or have never had them adequately demonstrated or explained. Not to mention the deceptive complexity of some of the mechanics.

The third video: Depth vs Complexity, is relevant to Project M because of how the competitive community, the people this fan-made mod is mostly focused toward, are pretty much obsessed with the idea that Melee has a lot of depth, and it's relevant Project M will be mostly scrutinized for it's perceived depth compared to Melee, Brawl, and Smash 4.

The last video, Counter Play, is another important aspect because it's something that is -or should be- part of any game with any competitive type of play. It's especially relevant to fighting games because it deals with options that players have to counter an action beset upon them by the opposing player or players.

would love if they actually changed so you can "Air dodge" like in brawl, but doing the wavedash/L cancling is something else, like a new method that doesnt have to be exactly like Melee. like Pressing R/L does the Brawl Dodge which is faster while pressing Z (or something else) can let you do it like in Melee that you can move and get a extra moment

Miacis-We aren't going to help develop BrawlEx. Why? We don't want to. We have more important things to work on with the project. Our clone engine works perfect for the way we need it to work.

There's your answer. I know you probably aren't happy with it, but you just have to deal with it.

You're right. I did infer that all from what EY said. Cause it's the thing that makes the most sense to me. Exactly how long does each edit to the Clone Engine take you? That would give some perspective to things, wouldn't you agree?

It taking so long to work on the Clone Engine's code means there's something not quite optimal with the way it was constructed, the way I see it. Sure, I fully admit that I couldn't do it better, but the thing is, for each new slot or thing that utilizes the CE, you guys needs to edit what's already there and add new code, and the way Eternal made it sound to me, it takes you guys a headache of a time to get it all done in a timely manner.

I mean. What would you rather have? A set of code that is easy, streamlined, and simple to edit while being coded solidly, or something that takes you an adventure and a half to edit all the things you need in, when that time could've been allocated to something else going toward the project?

As I said, being harder to edit doesn't necessarily make it more solid. It just makes your jobs take longer than they need to...and while people aren't complaining about how long it's taking to get your stuff done, I think some of you would like to get these updates out faster than your current pace.

Hello, we are sorry if our members could not provide an answer to your questions in a satisfactory way. They are currently very busy with crucial parts of the game and can unfortunately be rather stressed with the the amount of work.

We are also sorry that we do not have members specialized with public relations active on kc-mm to communicate with you but our resources are limited. I will provide you answers that should hopefully cover all of the questions that have been asked recently.

First, about mariokingds64's waluigi. The process of choosing which characters will be included in the future in Project M is very intrincate and a lot of factors must be considered. We unfortunately cannot disclose how the process exactly happens, but a lot depends on what our members are willing to work with, the technical limitations, concept construction and consideration if it will be appealling to our whole public, from competitive players to those who only play the game for fun.

As the game is a non-profit effort, and will always be, having members willing to work on a character is key to make sure that it will indeed go forward. We receive character requests every day, including other people who wish to see a certain PSA in the game. But we cannot answer questions about those in order to avoid trouble in future, as it is possible that we can be working on a character but hurdles during development might force us to drop it.

We as a team have not confirmed nor deconfirmed Waluigi, but, we will not use PSAs by third persons. A character is extremely important for the game and we prefer to develop them inside the team with possible collaboration with outside artists for their aesthetics, this way we can have a greater degree of control over its development. It is the most professional way to handle character development in our situation. We hope you understand.

Now, the questions asked by Miacis.

We wish to stay with the inside developed CE as it fullfils all the needs we have for the game. We have chosen to stay with 7 slots in order to maintain a more controlled development environment, gives us a tangible limit, makes it easier to solve the system problems without having to replace more stuff in the future and also because developing 7 characters in the most professional way is very demanding and our members work on the game only during their free time and are not paid to work. Other point is that the character inclusion must eventually end and depending on the demands of our public we might not even need to use all of the slots. Having 41 characters to learn how to fight against is already a lot to ask from the players and we must be cautious with new character inclusions.

Also, our members responsible for the engine will have an easier time working on a code they constructed then on a code they do not know completely. We have no interest in officially supporting the BrawlEx development due to the fact that we already have what we need and the advantages of BrawlEx are not appealling to us to justify a transition.

About credits, we are very busy with the game in order to concentrate a lot of effort into crediting. This way, the most convenient way to handle it is to leave to the creators, if a person feels he is not being properly credited, contact us and we will fix it. Our members mostly do not care much about crediting and are more concerned with creating more content for players to enjoy, but when they wish to be publicly known for having done something, we will make sure that the creator's name will be shown if not in the game due to limited resources but in our official website or social media channels.

We hope the answers were satisfactory, if not, we unfortunately cannot disclose more information about CE and new character inclusions.

edit: I apologize if the post sounds a lot too formal, but english is not my first language and that is the way I have to make sure the information I convey will be understood.

Ah, a pleasant answer to sweeten the sour taste in my mouth after all this. You sir, are a scholar and a gentleman. Not much in the way of new information though (as good PR talk should be?).
No complaints about the English though. I'm French, so I can sympathize. :)

***
I don't see how forcing yourselves with a slot limit is helping in any way to control the size of the cast, unless the development team just cannot stop themselves from filling ALL THE SLOTS. (In which case the problem isn't on the coder's side, but on the shrink's.)

But aside from that, old stuff. So I guess the whole matter of "why not just build onto BrawlEx?" will be left to "We have no interest in it." Disappointing, but not unexpected, as I've seen from past experience.
My question was more of a coding perspective as to why the PMBR believe it'll take less time to upgrade BrawlEx to fit instead of taking more time just having the CE working. But since no more information can be disclosed about it for whatever reason, that also settles my question into a non-answer.
I guess the whole "safety" thing isn't even important enough to get mentionned either. Oh well.

Next is the bigger point of contention.
Credits.

****
You have to understand that the SSBB Hacking community is not reduced to the PMBR. In fact, a major part of the ressources used by P:M come directly from SSBB Hacking websites. I won't lie to you, but nowadays it's kinda just us. A large number of the artists that make all those sick renders and build up the hype have started here, learned from here, and become famous here. Even if some of them don't even seem to remember it.

We are an open-source community. But we still have a bit of an obligation to give proper credit where credit's due. When you take work from someone and modify it into your own, you credit the person.
It's most basic respect. You don't see me take someone's PSA of a lifetime, botch up a few moves, and then have my name and only mine featured as the original creator.

Heck, that's not just disrespectful, that's just plain theft.

I've been led to believe you never even started compiling the credits for all the works you've used. Which is why now, it's probably way too late to start doing it, years after. How does that happen?
How do you start working on a product that you're eventually going to market (even for free), and then never ask yourself the question of who did what?

I mean, I'm not even talking about the guy who did the toe texture on Green Lucario's right paw. Glaring stuff like "Thany made most of Roy's PSA, then SDoom edited it. Guess who gets his name on it." or "Why the [censored] is Dantarion not even listed?" That list doesn't even seem to have been edited since 2012 too. (http://smashboards.com/threads/project-m-faqs-credits.331639/)

But apparently, there's a need for victims to call out for that theft for you to do anything? That's like me going around random stores, sneaking items out, then saying it's not theft unless they ask it back.
If you're waiting for the silent masses to speak up for credits, then you're really not doing things as professionally as that. That just seems more like backyard traffic to me than an honest business.

***
I was also led to believe that the list was being worked on:

"We don't have a complete listing of everything that's been made right now but we are slowly working towards making a complete master list. At the moment, we only have some character and stage models down on a list. Because this is such a big project a credits list would take a large chunk of time to create when we're still working on the game itself and things are still ever-changing. If you were looking to use a credits list to determine what's actually ours, we could probably work towards getting something more complete to you as soon as we are able.

Please let us know if you have any other questions."


**That is from the team leaders of the PMBR.**

But from what you're saying, I guess you guys really aren't compiling that list, and just waiting for people to do it for you.

And I suppose that message I got was just someone trying to smooth-talk me. Again.
This isn't getting repetitive at all.

Being busy is not an excuse. If you have the time and energy to spend advertising your game on social networks, streaming websites, be featured in tournaments and even sell T shirts, you certainly have more than enough time to give credit to the people whose work you use.

***
Also please get someone who actually knows PR to check this place more often. I'm sick and tired of your coders starting fires on our Programming section and [censored]ting all over this community every time their [censored] Engine is leaked out.

Post by: Fireball Stars on July 12, 2014, 11:42:03 PM
Disrespect is unfortunately a relevant accusation. Although I have to make clear that theft does not configure in any angle you analyze the situation.

We all do not hold legal right over any of the intellectual properties being used in the game and do not sell any of the content present in-game. If we did sell, then it would be theft, towards any of the actual legal owners of the content such as Nintendo, Sora, Sega and Konami. I will not enter in the semantics discussion about theft, as what really matters for that accusation is that the legislation does not support it and we all as modders cannot truly steal content from another modder not only because it is a derivative work but also is protected by copyright law of the actual owner that justifies free distribution only through fair use as long the actual sellable product isn't distributed along (the executable game, SSBB).

Still we do understand the concern and philosophy of the kc-mm website and also share them; respecting the people responsible for the content distributed is important and have been working on a credits list. And the current situation is indeed our fault, which on the present day we can apologize for but will be hopefully addressed by our next release.

We had one previous situation where we failed to properly adress creators of parts of certain piece, if I remember correctly one it was a case with Ivwi and the Proto Meta Knight, due to a severe miscommunication most of the team was unaware that the model wasn't made from scratch and Ivwi did not even know about it until after the model was already released.

We want to avoid completely those situations in the future not only because it is bad for the team but also to show that we do respect those we collaborate with.

In case of Thany, she is part of the Project M Dev Team since Roy's development and showed interest of being credited only on the model and the animations she made which was a collaboration between her, Pik and Sdoom, who are also members. We made sure to talk about them both when talking about Roy and its model. She has been inactive, but her work was so important for us, that we'll always be open for her if she wishes.

Clarifying: The base Thany PSA was heavily modified by many different members during the Roy development since it started in 2011, the PSA file included in PM 3.02 differ greatly from the one available on kc-mm by Thany herself. The moveset file can be considered as hers as well as it can be considered by those other PM Dev Team members.

For content produced by Project M Dev Team members, if they do not request a direct mention. Crediting the team will do to credit them, they are part of the team after all. It is an inside agreement and we should have talked about before.

Although being busy is not an excuse, it is indeed detrimental, I for instance have to work on Playtesting, PR (international and on my country), Promotion, Regional Tournament Organizing and Art and many other members have overlapping roles in the team. While I am here answering questions, I cannot be working on a concept art someone in the Art Team is waiting to start on a model or I can't be testing an important experimental build for the next release. So, administrating all of this along with my personal life, meet the internal deadlines and get my sleep schedule to allow me to work properly with members all over the world is incredibly difficult. Development teams usually don't have to deal with PR or most of these, for reference, I've been sleeping at 11 AM and waking up at 18 PM every day since the start of July.

All members feel those hardships, and we are not paid to go through this, so it's difficult to get certain things organized. As a PR person, I have been working on ways to organize the internal communication and solidify our relation to the community as someone who hears and respects them from Smash Boards, to Reddit, to international Smash Bros. forums and kc-mm.

I can only ask everyone to forgive us on this, but hopefully it all should be organized by our next release. In the mean time, if you have any content present in the official build of Project M, please contact us and we'll make sure that you will make to the credits list.

If you don't want to be in the credits but want to use any of your pieces in your art portfolio to get a job or other important things and need a confirmation from us, don't hesitate to contact us via PM'ing the Smash Boards official Project M account or through e-mail.

On unrelated details, having the game featured in tournaments is not of our influence, it's the choice of organizers and players, we cannot effectively sponsor tournaments as we have no funds to do so.

The t-shirt campaign sold at that one time was under the responsability of teespring, one or two members helped them as they had free time during that period. The campaign happened due to frequent requests by the community.

I already have really a lot on my plate (will also have to work on my course completion thesis for the next semester), but I'll be checking kc-mm more often. Thank you for openly calling us out as you didn't feel satisfied before, but I hope you understand that those faults were not intended and although it is of high priority, there are other factors of much higher priority that we must address first. Don't hesitate to remind us of this once some time has passed.

"Thany made most of Roy's PSA, then SDoom edited it. Guess who gets his name on it."

This always gets me.

"Oh my God! PM did an AWESOME job on Roy! They're the best!"

Meanwhile Thany was working for a year or two to make Roy a reality. Even if she was a part of PM or allowed them to use it (even with saying that she didn't care if she was credited or not), I'd feel that writing a simple line out would be the least I, or anyone could do for her dedication.

And then there's GoodOldGanon, anyone remember that guy? That's OG for ya' kids.

Even if (s)he was credited on say, the main website for specifically creating Roy, people all over the internet wouldn't say "OMG good job Thany, I love Roy in P:M."

It sounds like you don't know how to read walls of text.

First, about mariokingds64's waluigi. The process of choosing which characters will be included in the future in Project M is very intrincate and a lot of factors must be considered. We unfortunately cannot disclose how the process exactly happens, but a lot depends on what our members are willing to work with, the technical limitations, concept construction and consideration if it will be appealling to our whole public, from competitive players to those who only play the game for fun.

As the game is a non-profit effort, and will always be, having members willing to work on a character is key to make sure that it will indeed go forward. We receive character requests every day, including other people who wish to see a certain PSA in the game.

I fail to see how the legal definition of theft enters into the equation. Neither the PMBR nor this very website have a legal legitimacy, and SSBB Hacking in general is most certainly not following the law. Whether money is made or not, all the stuff that needs to be done to simply make hacks and install them goes against a whole lot of legislation related to reverse-engineering and bypassing contructor protection. Following your logic, a thief stealing from a thief isn't stealing anything. What about the whole "honor among thieves", especially when the theft is very minor?

tl;dr
Quote
we all as modders cannot truly steal content from another modder

Nobody should arrive to that conclusion unless their desire is to bully creators into relinquishing their work for their own selfish motives.

****
As for the credits list and it being adressed in the next release... and about respecting those you collaborate you. I wish to believe you. I really do.

Unfortunately, I have it known from a longtime PMBR member that the PMBR doesn't care about crediting as long as no individual complaint is made. And even if there was, it's not even certain that action would be taken.
Considering nothing has evolved in the past month since I first asked, and all the answers I received focused on "who complained to you about the credits?" I'm inclined to believe that no, nothing is going to be done.

You say Thany showed interest in being credited for the model and animations... and yet she wasn't credited for the model. Either I've been looking at the wrong place this entire time, or even when someone asks to be credited, nothing is done.
And apparently, there isn't even anything related to PSAers in that list. (http://lpix.org/1470378/psyduck.gif)

All this is especially ironic, considering Shanus was affirming with a lot of confidence last year or so that all assets were very thoroughly reviewed and examined before being added. I guess only the content matters and the author isn't very important after all.

***

For content produced by Project M Dev Team members, if they do not request a direct mention. Crediting the team will do to credit them, they are part of the team after all. It is an inside agreement and we should have talked about before.

What. What even is the reasoning behind that? Do content creators even know about their name being hidden from the credits, or was that made up just a few moments ago? Because I've never heard of such an agreement.

And even then, it's only just displacing the issue. If "people on the team" aren't credited, then why are some still credited? Because they thought about asking, but others didn't?
That sounds like an incredibly loopholey way to do some favoritism.

***
As for the topic of being busy, yes, I can definitely sympathize. I can't count the number of times I've had to ruin my sleep schedule too because of solving issues on this forum. And when ds22 and Dant's littly club decides to launch a vendetta against our users, it's surprisingly difficult to sleep in a relaxed state of mind.
I'm sure there more than just the two of us who are very busy bees without needing monetary compensation, though.

Even then, my point still stands. If promotion and organizing tournaments counts as a much higher priority than the most basic of authorial aknowledgement, then there's kind of a big problem in the mentality of the PMBR. If this was a sold product, it would be the equivalent of putting "more sales" over actually paying your employees. The question of crediting does not even seem to have been raised until I went and asked.
If the team screws up so early in development and you don't have time later to fix it, then find someone who can make time for it. Don't give us a vague "yeah, we're sorry we'll be working on it at some point perhaps"

***
Even if (s)he was credited on say, the main website for specifically creating Roy, people all over the internet wouldn't say "OMG good job Thany, I love Roy in P:M."
They'd obviously still be saying "(The) Project M (Team) did a great job with Roy, I love him."

That is, only if you assume people who never look at credits. People who don't care about who did what are not my concern here.

Heck, even if nobody ever looked at credits. Like, ever. Does that make it right to credit the wrong people? No.
But as things stand, just take someone who wants to mod the P:M assets and wishes to be respectful to whoever made the original asset. They cannot do that properly. So that one Roy recolor on the Vault will be credited to/collabed with... "Pik, StarWaffle, Nanobuds, Spex 130, jiang."

Or worse "the PMBR."

We're currently looking into it.

also, why does everybody keep negating PAL's existance?
We're well aware of PAL's existence. Our codes are always updating. And since PAL codes are different than NTSC/J's codes, there will need to be two codesets that need updating, rather than one. It would be best to focus on just one codeset, then convert it when it's finished.

The thing is, Raven has no relation at all to Roy. I mean, look at Raven's Critical animation Sprite. It's pretty much Aether. And considering the fact that Raven was the first person in Fire Emblem (localized in the US) to do it, I would have thought it a perfect fit.

Alas, Raven must wait for his debut.  if at all :V

I've been playing my share of FE7 and FE7 hacks, and I honestly could not recognize Hector.

Collar and elbow parts of the armor are missing. The shirt sleeves are the wrong color. The color scheme of the armor/undershirt is the other way around. Gauntlets and shoes are just painted blue from what I can tell. Belts and tattered caps are unchanged.
I'm not even sure what's going on with Ragnell. Is that a random Alondite?

Heck, the shape of all the armor parts is completely off. Were they taken from something else, or is there some official art of a redesigned Hector I'm not aware of? 'cause this looks more of a Wyvern Knight style armor than anything remotely armorknight-esque.

Marth's Sigurd costume was awesome. This looks more like "Ike stole some of Haar's armor and painted it blue." oô

Thanks for your opinion, and yeah, the initial concept artist took some liberties with Hector's design. (http://i.imgur.com/LRVEgOk.png) In the end, it's his armour with a bit of an Ike spin.

I think it's still recognizable as Hector-esque, since people on smashboards recognized him from a blurry stream feed.


There's an accurate Hector already on the vault (axe and all), I recommend you download it if you're looking for something like that.

Well, I'm sure "people on Smashboards" (?) would see anything with blue hair and armor and yell it's Hector. And anything with a black mantle and white hair would be Robin.

I'm not questioning the modeling quality though, I just think the design is completely off. Like, that just's beyond Awakening-esque of unrecognizable redesign. It just isn't Hector's armor at all.

If all you need is for people who have a very vague knowledge of FE games to recognize a mere color scheme from a blurry stream, then sure, go ahead. But that just seems incredibly lazy considering there's some beautiful stuff like that perfect replica of Sigurd's figurine.
Why even bother modeling?

Edit: Not like what I'm saying is gonna change anything considering how the PMBR seems to consider this community.

I can't speak for people like ds22 or Dant, but StarWaffle, Nano, Spex, and I are members of this community. So dude, we like hearing your feedback.

To the rest of your post: It boils down to artistic liberties. I understand the appeal of having an 100% accurate Hector alt, but many people could tell it was him anyway. The FE subreddit could tell, and they're big on FE. Again, there's a completely accurate Hector already on the vault if you want that.

Well, to be perfectly honest with you, Pik. I don't think everyone on the PMBR shares your sentiment.

I personally have a problem when two of the people who are essential to a project view a community some of their members were a big part of and basically point at it and call everyone trash. How you can still stand to associate with such people is something I find hard to comprehend.

I find it even harder to comprehend that the majority of you who were KC:MM members before becoming really involved in the PMBR don't seem to bat an eye to it, and some of you even go so far seeing the KC:MM community the same way DS22 and Dant do. For what reason? Just because of the actions of one admin, or maybe an Admin and one member? Surely you see the folly here.

-if you and the rest of the art team are okay with taking feedback, be positive or negative, then alright. I believe you. Based on past actions from others in your fold, however, it seems some would rather be free of criticism or scoff at it.

Well, if you tell me it's not 100% accurate... how accurate is it?

Really, please tell me, as the modeler of that "redesign", what in that alt evocates Hector. If there's been concept sketches and whatever, that means some thought has been put into it, right?

We agree that the color scheme is blue (if innacurate blue). Okay, what else in that armor looks like Hector's? Anything to explain why it's "artistic liberties" and not "just way off the mark."

Post by: Miacis on July 22, 2014, 05:09:58 PM
Nice sarcasm.

I see a pose and color scheme. That's about it. Try other poses. .w.

[url]http://i.imgur.com/LRVEgOk.png[/url]

Ah, well now that this has been posted, I can definitely see a bit more of a resemblance. The cape is faithful to Hector's, the collar has armor, and really, the whole armor fits together instead of looking like it was pieced together from random parts. Ike's bandana is even tied so as to not distract and accentuate the differences with vanilla Ike.
With the different facial expression, it does kinda work. Even if the armor design is still well off what you'd see in FE for armored characters. That still is way off-the mark.

So hey, I guess I'll say that it wasn't completely the designer's fault. Because there's all the things that are innacurate in the model as opposed to the concept art. And I'm not just talking about the colors here.

So... yeah, not very impressed.

Aside from the colors (herp derp, blue gold), breastplate (which is the same for literally almost every armored FE character), the pants (who'da guessed that they all have pants too?), and the hip things (which most characters also have), nothing else is really similar.

That and the pose. The pose was the only reason I guessed Hector correctly. Otherwise, it was just another FE themed design to me.

So...

-and it seems to me that you are entirely missing the point of Mia's honest critique, as you have just made so perfectly clear to me thusly.

Yeah, we get it. The pose is similar, the armor is similar. Compare the Sigurd alt to Ike's Hector alt.

Being entirely honest: the modeling quality itself is great. When you compare the two alts however. The Hector alt just comes off as something lesser by comparison despite it's fantastic quality. Miacis wasn't critiquing just the inaccuracy of a couple parts of the model. He was critiquing the inconsistency between the two alts.

I can understand artistic liberties, but if you're going to make the Sigurd alt basically a perfect replica, why not do the same for the Hector alt?

Another thing, which is something I think the PMBR as a whole doesn't understand: Everyone here who is giving you critiques treats you as a professional team because you output alts like these, especially the custom modeled ones with a professional level of quality that matches or even rivals Nintendo's aesthetics for Brawl. So for those of us with a more discerning eye, we judge it as such.

It's still pretty damn similar...

@Miacis
([url]http://i.imgur.com/LRVEgOk.png[/url])

Here is the concept sketch, in case you want to see it. It is inspired by Hector, but not 100% Hector's outfit.




I understand that it's based off Hector. But why did you guys go with a rather faithful Sigurd and then a lightly inspired Hector? Seems like a lost opportunity, at least in my opinion.

But hey, I suck at modelling. Not like I could make a better one if I tried.

Stop treating us like we're part of a collective, it's only certain people who have a beef against KCMM. I just make the damn alt costumes, lol. That also applies to other people on the art team.

I don't know what kind of politics there are relating to PMBR vs KCMM, but they're irrelevant to me as a modeler.

Agreed.
Smashboards has a completely different (more competitive) community. They're more tourney-based than the folks here at KC:MM are.

Well, you just said "we like hearing your feedback." After naming a few people who we both know really don't want to hear anything from me.

I mean, we're not your target audience. Just kind of a fertile ground to pluck your creative artists from. Our opinion matters little.

You're honestly not someone I have a problem with. In fact, I have little problem with most of the modelers animators and PSAers in the PMBR, despite how it's obviously not a mutual feeling. I could hold it against them, what I've heard said about me and this whole community. I don't, because I really don't care as long as you don't come [censored]ting on Programming like Dant and friends did.

But if you're going out of your way to go all "we" and cover people who really don't care a rat's ass about what anyone on KCMM would say (especially not me and my insolent "pressing the issues" attitude) then sorry, yeah you're gonna get assimilated into the group of the KCMM haters.

So we shouldn't make judgements and give critical feedback?

@SOJ:

I really can't take you at your word seeing as I know you're being so disingenuous with that statement, man. Come on. Could you be any more transparent?

A lot of people on Project M's Facebook and such may like the project (It's kinda plainly obvious just by looking at it), all the power to them for liking the project as is their right. Those people however are probably not very much for good, decent critical feedback though, I imagine, the majority of the time.

I can understand you guys being agitated by Mia commenting on anything related to the PMBR though, given he's done it pretty much with every chance he gets, and very much not always in the nicest or any way that isn't a jab. When you take someone's honest critique as an attack (which Pik here is (awesomely) not doing), that's a problem that needs to be addressed.

Look at the hyper accurate Sigurd and then back at the alt. That's what my beef is about. We all agree that the detail and design itself is awesome.

Looking back at it, I guess there are differences between the Sigurd figurine (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110509124504/fireemblem/images/4/49/Siglud_Figurine.jpeg) and the alt itself (http://projectmgame.com//content/images/news/altpost2/marthrender.png). I was using a wrong reference (http://projectmgame.com//content/images/news/altpost2/marth.png), so my bad about what I said earlier on it.

Jacket is open and there are new linings all over the place. So it's not a perfect replica, but still pretty dang close to it.
I still think it's a more effective costume by virtue on improving and adding detail to the existing material, instead of directly altering it.

so, 3.5 is conisdered a big update, right?

3.5 is PAL compatible?

also, are you guys working on custom server support or something for the online?

You literally asked this question a few pages ago. And I'll answer again.

Our coders are looking into PAL support. We're hoping to have a PAL release by v3.5.

also, are you guys working on custom server support or something for the online?
We're looking into it.

inb4 every character has a [censored]ty Falco-tier recovery

I personally felt recoveries were fine and didn't really need tweaking. The only one that really comes to mind is Pikachu's due to there being a weird delay between Quick Attack direction changes.

I don't feel this is needed and I hope they don't break anything by trying to fix things, but we'll see.

Diddy Kong? Mario? Mewtwo? Hell, even DDDs recovery is pretty stupid.

You sure this isn't necessary?

I think tethers also need something done to them, especially for characters that have other ways to recover anyway like the Links and Lucas.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: Turbo Mode Contest and Alt Costume Tuesdays!
Post by: AutumnVen on August 05, 2014, 03:01:29 PM
In my opinion I really like the way the recoveries are right now. I don't have much of a complaint, but yes tethers do seem a bit ridiculous at times, but for the most part I think it is fine. If anything it just makes it more rewarding for the person edge guarding to by able to take the stock of a good recovering character. :P Just my thoughts.

While the costume mostly looks pretty good, the patterns on the back and the jet hammer don't really feel fitting on it at all. They feel more Chinese than Japanese, and it ends up giving it a sorta "fake" vibe.

Yeah, I mean it could be that the pictures aren't doing the alt favors. But it does seem like the patterns are just slapped on... they remind me of stickers in Soul Calibur 5 honestly.

Also... I feel like the eyebrows are a bit off. But I don't know how much can really be done about that.

If there was one character that made me think "wow he has a great recovery" it wasn't Lucas, but I hardly ever play as him so whatever.

The changes themselves don't seem to be too drastic, so I guess I'm not as worried as I was before. Tethers being useable only once in the air does concern me though.

Since I just finished asking about this elsewhere. here:

Quote from: Nanobuds
We want to keep Sonic's team colors the exact same model. Same shoes, gloves, etc.

We didn't want 2 red Sonics, so we went against a Knuckles semi-alt.

Quote from: SiLeNtDo0m
Exactly, which is inconsistent with the other team colours. We chose to keep the team colours all a consistent model, whilst the semi alts are for his other colours.

Quote from: Me
...Okay, maybe I'm missing something that isn't being explained here.

Are these new colors replacing the old ones? Or are they additional extra slots? I was under the impression that these would be Sonic's new default colors.

Quote from: Nanobuds
New slots yo

Quote from: SiLeNtDo0m
Okay let me elaborate. Sonic will have the following colours: Default (blue), Red, Green and Purple (from 3.02) then the Tails, Silver and Shadow colours with the Shadow colour replacing his black costume from 3.02 and the other two being brand new additions.

if I may give a critique on C.Falcons alt? It'll be short.

I notice a few discrepancies that could be addressed, I think:

- The visor doesn't seem to fit into the helmet, so I think the polygons for the helmet could be edited real quick for that, and the UVs and texture accordingly. Right now from this render it looks like just a pair of large shades that Falcon inserted after putting the helmet on.

- I notice comparing the SNES official art and his pauldron here that it sports only one single thin ring around the arm instead of three, is there a reason for this?

- I really think the accuracy of the alt could've been deviated from with the belt buckle. Right now it looks like just a big void space in the middle of his pelvic region. I think adding the tail number of the Blue Falcon, or adding a the falcon emblem from his original Brawl costume, or a new Falcon Emblem would really add to it.

I personally think it's one of the best looking alts so far. What would make this even more complete would be that the alt has it's own Classic Blue Falcon model for the FS in place of the modern one.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: Turbo Mode Contest and Alt Costume Tuesdays!
Post by: Pik on September 02, 2014, 11:21:53 AM
Thanks Velen. Always good with feedback.

-Ah, I see. I kinda interpreted them as shades, kind of like how Proto Man's helmet works. (It's a helmet with a pair of shades on) It's very... 80's

-Funny you mention that, there actually is a reason for that edit. I figured it would be impossible for your arm to comfortably bend if there was a huge metal ring in your armpit, so I made it small to accommodate that.

- Hmm, I agree with this one. I can see how it looks empty without the falcon emblem, since that's how it is most of the time. In this case, I was being accurate to the source material. It had to differ enough from Normal Falcon and such. (That doesn't mean I won't edit it with a design later)

I'm glad you think it's one of the best alts so far, though. Thank you

Post by: Samusfan1 on September 02, 2014, 11:19:24 PM
I'd hate to give you guys criticism but this is an alt I've been anxiously waiting for for a long time. I understand you are taking creative liberties, but I believe the alt would look better with these changes:

- Make the shoulder pad look like leather.
- Put an engraved falcon texture on the belt buckle.
By far the most important and only necessary one:
- Fix the helmet. Make it more circular and have the visor overlap it on the sides. Also the falcon should simply be a texture rather than what it is now. The helmet is really the only thing that seriously bugs me about this costume and I really hope you redo it!

Sorry guys! Keep up the good work.

Yea, I agree. Looks perfectly fine as is.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree then. Cause to me, the belt buckle just seems too sparse. Having at least the tail number of the Blue Falcon on it, or even a simplistic falcon emblem on it would greatly enhance it and give the alt some more original flavor. Sometimes it's the little things that can really enhance something.

example of having the Blue Falcon's Tail # engraved on the buckle, as a mock up.

I might do another with a mocked up falcon emblem later. I have class to get to.

That could work. Although, since this is based on the SNES F-Zero, I think the Blue Falcon was 111 in that game rather than 07. Just putting that out there.

What if you just made the buckle a little smaller?

Or maybe just added a simple circle to it?

Yup, a slightly smaller version of the buckle with a circle seems like the best design option.

...

Both him and I are PSA modders. We should know. :srs:

Bone edits are either adding bones, renaming bones, scaling bones, moving bone placements, or moving bone IDs. All of which aren't generally compatible (and sometimes glitchy) with the respective characters without editing the character's animations and/or PSA. You either have to make your character's bones match the character you're making it over, or just make a PSA and fix the bone edits. There will never be a middle ground, no matter how hard you try.

Now stop dragging Off Topic. This thread gets enough of it as is.

Why was Falcon's run changed, exactly? It looks more generic now...
If it was changed for the sake of being "not-Brawl" I'd suggest changing it back, otherwise you lose a bit of character.

Roy's animations look better, but why does he shake? Is he cold?
And I really think that the taunt where he thrusts his sword up could just stop there, without the extra bit at the end. It...doesn't really look fitting? I get that it's from the GBA animation, but some animations just don't translate well to a 3D environment. That's why Sakurai freestyles in many cases and just makes stuff up.


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: Turbo Mode Contest and Alt Costume Tuesdays!
Post by: Zikkh on October 01, 2014, 04:59:15 AM
They changed it becouse SDoom simply didn't like his Brawl animation and just wanted to give him something else.

(Saw it on some random reddit posts, trying to find it now would take forever)

Absolutely in love with the new animations. Ganons in particular look great.
Also, can any of you guys comment on this at all?

Post by: BlueBrain on October 02, 2014, 03:04:59 AM
it does look epic though.

anyway, i wonder what that ganondorf animation is, if it ends up being a new N-B i don't know how i'd feel about it, i mean, on the bright side, it seems a lot faster than the original, so maybe it becomes actually useable in a real match, but on the other hand, wouldn't it kinda "re-clone" him, seeing how it's speed would become "closer" to falcon's?

of course all of this is based on the unknown/unproven fact that this animation is his new warlock punch.

btw, the model looks great, but his legs seem oddly placed/rigged, they bend in a kinda weird way.

Post by: Miacis on October 04, 2014, 09:42:10 AM
Ganon's B-Air and new N-B (?) look mighty fine. Nice to see more energy into those strong-ass punches~

His U-Tilt too, until he winds back. What's supporting his weight when he's returning into position? His left leg is almost flat on the ground, and his right one just kinda sliding back into place.
If you try yourself to recover from such a position, you're going to straighten up and (at the same time) use the left foot as support to pull the right foot back. Pretty certain it's anatomically undoable to do that while staying as low as he does.

Charizard's F-Air (Wolf is that you) looks more vicious which is cool, but the tail lacks in follow-through movement. Seems the wings movement is stiffer too, but that might well be the different angle.

And I imagine Pit's Shield is supposed to shrink back at the end of the new animation? Because otherwise, man, dat clipping.

And I really think that the taunt where he thrusts his sword up could just stop there, without the extra bit at the end. It...doesn't really look fitting? I get that it's from the GBA animation, but some animations just don't translate well to a 3D environment. That's why Sakurai freestyles in many cases and just makes stuff up.

More than the 3D environment, the difference is that Eliwood (not Roy) followed that fancy flourish with a lightning-fast critical-hit stab. And then a silly backflip 10 feet into the air.
Marth's and Eliwood's on-foot animations are all about style: fancy flourishes with a rapier-like weapon. Roy uses the SoS like a bastard sword and just kinda whacks people on the head with it (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140205003806/fireemblem/images/archive/a/ae/20140207033213!FE6_Roy_Sword_of_Seals_Critical.gif).
So him using Eliwood's animation, and not even attacking afterwards does seem like he's just kinda swinging his blade around in a manner that neither befits his character and sword style, nor looks intimidating or mocking.

I agree with this. Falcon's run animation looks even more exaggerated than before and just looks goofy. I don't see the reasoning behind changing animations that already look good.

These are the only animations i want changed for Captain Falcon.

1. DamageFall, because it was so much better how he was flailing around like some sort of cartoon in the air and they ruined it in Brawl.

2. Passive F&B, i don't understand why that was changed when it was perfectly fine in Melee and made it slower in Brawl. Kipping with one hand was more manly than kipping with both.

3. WallJumping, His Walljumping was faster and jumps like a Badass Ninja, but in Brawl he jumps like an old fart like Ganondorf would do.

4. Melee Taunt, I JUST HATE HIS BRAWL TAUNT! He just slouches over and does a halfass salute. It was so much better in Melee.

For his new running animation.... i don't know why that's getting changed either. His running animation was never an issue in Brawl honestly.

Like the recolors. Although, I want to know why the Red Ike Hector recolor has blue boots while Green has green boots?

Really minor. But... curious.

I like Ness's purple shirt a lot, I'd say that I hope that he gets more shirt designs but his PJ alts will probably fill up the rest of his slots. Oh well.

While the Ike recolours are fine, the new purple ones seem really boring? They're all just purple+white (plus slight red on Ness' shoes...), I wish you guys would mess around with some other accent colours more. Pink and blue never fail to screw up purple, so there's a quick idea.

And what happened to Falcon's belt buckle and scarf?

All the new colors look great, but was there any consideration for taking off the knee pads on the new Cap (or even just coloring them to make them blend with his pants) I'm pretty sure he didn't have those until Brawl.

I will agree with that drama on the subreddit that the effects were a bit overdone for this video, but I'm glad warchamp acknowledged that at least and probably learned from criticism. Something a lot of people here can learn from...

Anyway these were some cool entries, that Sopo on was probably my favorite. A small suggestion, if I may: you guys said you had over 200 entries that were submitted, why not use those to sort of bring back Turbo Tuesday and give people who weren't shown in the video a chance to be seen as kind of a way to say thanks for submitting? No editing would be required or anything, maybe just upload the raw video to YouTube with the Turbo Tuesday tag on it or something. I dunno. Just a thought.

Good idea. I can suggest that to the rest of the DT. However, we're all pretty busy getting ready for 3.5 stuff... so it will likely have to wait until after 3.5 if it'll even happen.

The Hyrule collisions are hardly different. The only noticeable difference is the Hut thing on the right of the stage.

The other stage remakes are planned to have the original collisions.

It's his new n-b.

Grounded, he uses the cape reflect.
In the air, he has a VERY short hover. Tapping B again will make him reflect as well.

trying to do only with modules under a long time, got everything covered with Methods and suchs except for 2-3 things, which is correctly impossible without a proper Module and PSA rebuilder D:

Speaking of Apex, still nothing public anounced by the big wigs regarding the death threats sent to the Apex staff?
I've heard of some miscontent in the PMDT, but... well that's not exactly action.

Or did the release trailer seriously take priority there?
When it comes to death-threats and the like, the best approach is to ignore them. Bringing attention to things like that just encourages people to continue to do those sorta things because they know they'll get a rise out of it. Also the PMDT don't really have an obligation to publicly address things of that nature when it isn't really related to them. They can't help it if some troll, person in a bad state of mind, or drunkard decides to do something stupid. The community in general has already taken action by showing their support towards Alex Strife via letters, messages, etc. I'm sure the PMDT has done something similar privately. I wouldn't expect or ask for much else tbh.

Lol, one week before SSB4. Aren't we getting a bit petty there...
I guess that's revenge for getting booted out of Apex in favor of the official SSB quadrilogy.

That's funny, cause I've talked to him constantly for the past 3 years. He actually is a very nice person to talk to. Just don't talk Fire Emblem with him and you're good.

As for the death threats: The PMDT have the most sway toward public opinion about their project. Getting supportive letters from fans of P:M is nice, and all well and good, but a public denouncement of the death threats, and admonishment of those who performed the behavior would do more toward discouraging it than encouraging it. It would show the PMDT do not approve of such actions in the name of their project.

Making a blogpost dedicated to it as well would be more meaningful than making a simple reddit thread, as I imagine the majority of fan traffic at least travels through the blog to the Reddit, Twitter, Forums, etc.

Ignoring the issue would simply let the perception about the P:M fans by outsiders fester.

You mustn't have been looking anywhere else than this very specific thread, then. Judging by your registration date a few months back, it would make sense. You probably haven't seen what I've seen either.
I think it's pretty obvious at this point that there are few unresolved contentions with the PMBR that were never really settled, so no, I'm not exactly putting on my tact gloves there. And seeing how maturely my interlocutors have reacted to my remarks, I... honestly don't see much reason to do things differently.

As for the death threats I'm... not sure how that would even work. You don't sweep things under the rug and hope everything goes away. Nobody's going to uproot the weed in the community for you if the guys in charge are just looking elsewhere in the garden.

Heck, just looking about the Reddit P:M, people still seem more concerned about setting up a P:M side tournament for Apex than the actual threats (because I'm sure the Apex staff would love to have to deal with that kinda stuff on top of the threats).
When I look at all the comments regarding the P:M exclusion decision, all I see is a lot of pent-up rage and overexaggerated indignation over a video game mod. With a situation neglected as it is, it's honestly no wonder Alex received that kinda [censored].

Post by: LC-DDM on November 12, 2014, 07:28:29 PM
...yeah I'm going to have to poke the dog here: What's the deal with all of this [censored]?

When it comes to death-threats and the like, the best approach is to ignore them. Bringing attention to things like that just encourages people to continue to do those sorta things because they know they'll get a rise out of it.

So basically, the old 'are they picking on you? ignore them lol' excuse applied to death threats. Which, last I checked, aren't exactly something to be shrugged off nonchalantly. Forgive me for sounding like Miacis here, but I haven't seen anyone worth their shekels from P:M actually address the whole 'Apex denies P:M, fans send death threats' thing except for SOJ. Doesn't matter if you like the Total Conversion or not, it's troubling.

Also the PMDT don't really have an obligation to publicly address things of that nature when it isn't really related to them. They can't help it if some troll, person in a bad state of mind, or drunkard decides to do something stupid.

Yes, they don't have an obligation... but consider that, even if that person is a troublemaker, it's trying to stain P:M's name by proxy. When you have a bunch of loonies running around outright threatening people while calling themselves P:M fans, the higher-ups should go out of their way to say "Yeah, these guys? They're not us. We don't like their flailing, it's uncool and cramping our style, bros." in the most powerful media they have - the blog. It might not LOOK like much, but it's enough to distance Group A from Group B, and it's not like P:M is foreign to that concept. I mean, if you look at christians and the KKK, muslims and Al Qaeda, it's not too farfetched. this thread confirmed religion thread 2.0

The community in general has already taken action by showing their support towards Alex Strife via letters, messages, etc. I'm sure the PMDT has done something similar privately. I wouldn't expect or ask for much else tbh.

Saying "I'm sorry about <x>" in private isn't as effective as in public, though. Not to mention that, from what I've seen, the community was more focused on trying to one-up Apex and disregarding the health, physical or mental, of the main guy Alex. I mean, there's an issue if those are the priorities and no one is saying anything against it. Or they're okay with it, which is an even bigger issue.

I mean, if [censored] like this keeps happening - retarded-ass drama because of a TC, nerdraging over a fake video of a 10-year-old girl, among other oh so intelligent instances - what do you think is going to happen? Ninty's decided to be benevolent and officially* support the more competitive side of Smash. If they see how much people are [censored]ting themselves over every little triggering thing, they'll likely pull the plug before Smash 4's lifespan is even over. Worst case scenario, they yank a C&D out their pockets and shut the sonofa[censored] down for good. Can't we just love the SMASH series in its entirety instead of fragment into each game (and TC) in the series and throw flaming bags of [censored] at anyone not in our team just for thinking differently?

*as in, official games and not a TC

Lurking this site for years has led me to believe that you aren't really a nice person to talk to :( Rhetoric like this speaks for itself.

[censored] Miacis, how did you manage to steal my thunder? :c

Overall, everyone has retards in their community, there's no escaping that. Just have to power through and teach them to do and not do things, not just shun them and hope things will automagically get better. Just... all of this from a combination of a fake vid, the Apex thing and subsequent reactions, and the convenient/poor-timed (depending on who you ask) scheduled release of 3.5 led to a [censored]storm so immense even Link can't salvage. Honestly, when did Smash Bros. become such a headache that people can only fight OUTSIDE the game?

Now both Miacis and Nanobuds kiss and make up. You can both lord it up with lightsaber battles over who has the higher ground, but leave the dark and edgy behaviour at the thread's entrance and get along, for [censored]'s sake.

And if you're not going to, then at least give us a heads up if you're ever gonna go GOLD. Y'know, so we can have all the shiny trinkets you oh so diligently kept secret in a vault of your own.

Unless you're afraid that the codes might trigger a nuclear holocaust. :V

Will there be a Tut or something to do this? The ability to add defensive collisions in module files/gct would be a HUGE boon for ALL PSA hackers and would open MANY possibilities for old and even new movesets (now only if someone can figure out how to add articles)

Amazing trailer. Wow.
Glad you guys changed Zeldas Side B up a bit.
Absolutely LOVE how Ganon's been shaping up in P:M so far. While still keeping his "stronger Captain Falcon" feel, you guys keep adding new options to his arsenal that make him feel so new and different. Loving the hover and cape, hopefully he'll finally have a chance against characters with projectiles now. lol
HD Metal Cavern looks amazing, HD Dreamland looks cool too, great job on that.
Loving those new costumes too. Dedede seems to have some pretty sweet ones, and Falcons looks amazing in motion, same goes for Ganons.

Also, just to make sure (since I used to USB Loader Project M before), is the PAL release gonna work with an unmodded Wii U? I don't care when it's getting released, would just like to know whether I'll have to homebrew my Wii U to play P:M.

So yea overall, pretty [censored]ing excited.

My only stipulation with Charizard's armored alt is I personally think the armor looks too dull, can Charizard not support a specular?

Hnnnng Justin Bailey Samus's arm canon hand looks sooo cooool uuuggghhh. Brilliant idea.

Metal Cavern's definitely my favorite updated stage, the N64 stages looked so jarring to me, so it's nice to see them finally blending in well with the artstyle of everything else. Also, hopefully the random King Bublin sound effects no longer play on Castle.

Ah, well I'm certainly glad that Strong Bad agrees with me so wholeheartedly. :)

Not sure whether I agree with the idea of dissociating the death threats from the issue of P:M not being present at Apex, however. It's entirely possible I missed something, but weren't the threats specifically meant to protest against the latter decision?

Those are some really fancy ZSS alts. And that Metal Cavern is legitimately impressive. Hotdamn, so many details.

Charizard is based off of the Lucario movie, but with our own edits. Jiang came up with the design.

I was able to reduce filesize just a little bit ago, so we are going to add a specular map :)

Honestly, I personally cannot answer your question regarding Apex. I know the basics, like death threats being sent to Alex, resulting in him from stepping down. I'm not sure who exactly was involved... I am not involved much in the actual PM and Smash community.

As for the iceburg... where exactly does it seem low-poly? I don't quite see what you mean.

That white ZSS is amazing, mainly because of how obscure of a reference it is. As a Metroid fanatic, respect. :P

I assume based on the fact that all 4 of his Melee alternates are there, Ganon will have 11 costumes since he's one of few characters that can go over 10? Or maybe his standard replaces the Brawl brown?

Also, how are Samus' alts going to work? I would guess based on there being vertexes for both Fusion Samus and ZSS that it's in a different slot altogether and since ZSS's blue costume is pretty similar to how she looked in Prime 2, that would fit with Dark Samus in the corresponding blue slot.

PSA: Everyone NOT using the Launcher needs to set their hooktype to AXNextFrame for the Event Matches to work.

That's because of a problem with File Patch and Brawl that will skip over common2.pac upon startup with other hooktypes.

Also Stamina and ASV can malfunction at times in dolphin.

The Leak maybe is real, let's not forget that Mewtwo and Roy were included in 2.6 in OTHER build by the PMDT, maybe this is the case again, because the movesets still look kind of cheap and not even 40% completed, besides Knuckles resembles Little Mac, maybe by the 3.6 o 4.0 we get any news of it

Set your stock number, then select that number of characters. Example, 5 stocks, select 5 characters. Click on the CSP to reset your selections.

Make sure Random is NOT selected. You gotta go select all your characters, even for CPUs.

It's on wii.

We had 4 stocks. Selected 4 characters. I had my first and last character as the same person but with different color... Then selected the stage and it froze.

It works when I try and go against a cpu, but whenever we try 1v1 with human players it freezes.

Because we wanted to? I don&#039;t know what type of answer you were expecting.

Based on the presumption of optimal relevance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relevance_theory), I believe the author makes it clear that they consider post-timeskip could have been a better choice, possibly (but that's mere speculation) because it would supplement Adult Link's OoT look better, or because it's a more effective representation of Ganon in his original game, as the one form you ultimately confront as player.
Through the use of the interrogative adverb "why" (1. For what cause, reason, or purpose) , the author was most certainly expecting the arguments behind that inclusion, otherwise asking the question that way wouldn't have followed the principles of relevant communication.

Any news of the recent "Leak" of Lyn, Knuckles and Isaac?

I heard about these guys (and a couple others...) more than a year ago, and have kept hearing echoes of them from different sources ever since without even having to look for them. You guys are slow.

Is it even a "leak" anymore when a member of the PMDT streamed it publicly?

Alternate rels... what exactly does that include exactly? i've been working pretty hard to figure out the coding from the last one, for a different project. its been slow going but i think i'm close to adding brawl EX to PM.  also i wanted to know, the all star special mode work. i did manage to weed out the clone engine in its entirety tho  >3< i think its mostly IC constants i'm missing that cause it to crash now.

just to recap on whats changed coding wise: you added the alternate loader, and looks like there could be changes to allstar mode. correct? am i missing any?

nah our ASL is different than Alma's. With it loading .rels, we can make any stage an alternate and not just one that is ported to the same brawl stage.

Also all star mode has been made to be a bit more stable. But that's the only new mode. For now...
But adding Stock icons needed a new code, as well as others for balancing purposes.

And no the alternate stages don't work for random stage select.

Us art guys have decided to re-think the art style of Project M. We wanted to move on to something new. To something fresh. After much debate, we decided to look into the past, to the roots of Smash. In the end, we thought a style matching the Nintendo 64's graphics would be best.
The new models will not be ready for Project M 3.64, but we will eventually have every character replaced with their new form. Be sure to watch for updates about this artistic overhaul!

i see, hmm do you think the icon code would interfere with BeX? i'm just trying to weed out what i can.  i know all clone engine data needs to poof (got that part done), IC stuff needs to go (think i have most of that) , and cosmetic things need to be removed (usually fairly basic). Also about the alternate loader you use,  is it a new add to the file patch or a separate code telling it where to look. it would be a pity to have to remove it. (altho usually FPC adds just need to be written on the end from my experience) thanks for answering the questions i have btw ^^ it helps a lot.

Yeahhhh Samus has funky shoulders.

Star somehow added two UV maps to the model, once for the normal texture, and once for the repeating Spec map, which is just this

Hey nano? i was wondering if you can help us out. You may have seen we've been working on getting BeX to work on PM. Well we have successfully gotten that to work. tho the common2 file had to be replaced with the brawl EX one. it still works and there are no errors. however, stamina mode doesn't change its textures. From what we found it seems like the sora_melee file was modified to read the textures from somewhere else? how do you guys edit the file? just straight hexing?

its not a huge deal, just means the stamina "type" is selected from the stage selection rules.

3.6 is awesome. Loving the new costumes added (especially MKDS ROB) and updated visuals/costumes for characters like Samus. Most new stages are really sick too. Balance changes are great, Roy got nerfs without making him feel a lot worse, Fox got a recovery nerf among other things, good stuff. very glad you guys didn't destroy Mario lol


..I'm not feeling the announcer at all though haha. He doesn't sound nearly "epic" enough, and makes PM feel a lot more fan-made. Hopefully that'll change at some point.

I re-formatted the SD card since that's what's helped me before, but now the game aknowledges the SD card but doesn't start up PM! I figured I would just wait for 3.6 to try again, and now, here I am. Brand new SD card and everything, and nothing is working! Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I'm thinking it might be my Brawl disc since I've had it for like 6 years and it's kinda scratched up, but I'm worried I might've screwed up my WiiU or something...

I agree with this. I like that you guys are trying something new, but I'm not sure how I feel about it yet... I'll have to get other opinions on it as well from the players in my area...

Best version so far, I love the samus costumes.

The announcer is bad, that needs to change.

I thought there was supposed to be a 64 mode? I'm assuming you didn't go through the trouble of making low-poly models for characters if you were only going to use them for one video... Especially since you guys haven't released them.

OH also I love the new effects you gave Mewtwo, they're really cool! I hope you guys eventually give him some new animations! I would also like his model to be updated, but I think you guys said you weren't doing that, so my question is is Nanobuds still importing the Smash 4 model?

Most of the models used in that April Fools video are uploaded here actually. Mario, Link, DK, Sonic, Samus, pretty much every one that was seen in that video.

Is there a working Riivolution support for 3.6?

I tried to use the same Riivo support from PM3.0 and modify it a bit but it doesn't seem to be working anymore. It hangs after the PM3.6 Intro at the beginning.

Edit: Nevermind, got it to work. common5.pac was 1KB and I guess the .GCT file was messed up too :P

Anyways, my thoughts on 3.6 "beta":
- The new announcer SUCKS, but thankfully I can change it back.
- I really hate that you can't change most of the stage's songs, as in going into Options > My Music. It doesn't even move and stays at the same spot.
- The songs it brings in the pack is OK, but most of them suck.

+ I REALLY like the multiple songs in Character Select Screen, gives me other ideas as what to specific songs I could have for it. I would really like to know the code used to do that.

I guess thats it really, everything else is still more or less the same, unless I'm missing something.

I think the real blow here is how sudden it was. One minute, PMDT is showing us all these pictures of new costumes, and then the next, it's all gone. No Awakening Roy, no Headband Puff, no future Clone Engine characters... Everything's just stopped. And will never be worked on again.

I never was a fan of pm because I hate melee, but I think this will mean the total collapse and death of brawl hacking in general, because after all, people think pm is brawl hacking itself (and it's not a really wrong thing to say because pm brought brawl hacking to fame even though it also killed it with its meleetard fanbase).

This I can relate to... considering I applied as well. Not too happy to find out this is how I know what happened to my application. PM to me, has been something I've gone back to Brawl for. I didn't start hacking because of it. Or get into it because of it... but It kept me coming back, hoping for new things like stages, characters, costumes, ideas for my own PSA's I do on the side.

I'm still upset with how I found out... and that my application was wasted, but I understand that things get stale and that they'd want to move onto something more fresh.

Hopefully people don't abandon hacking just because of that.

I have the original pf folder(untouched) of PM 3.6 that I could upload to the Vault, if someone has the 3.6 Non-pf folders. (i.e. The one I'm running is like 3.5, and the newer 3.6 probably has more codesets and stuff; plus mine's the wi-fi version, so I don't have the codeset anyways)

Speaking of Wi-Fi, anyone know if PM's servers will still be up or not. Also, if the original team is disbanded, who's to say that a new team of people who are revolutionizing hacking can't make a new PMDev team?(i.e. I think I'm the first person ever to import fully rigged models with Blender)

Ohhh boy. Guess this is really it...

Hopefully someone leaks Lyndis and Knuckles' build someday. Would be a shame if all that hard work would never see the light.
Were both of them made by the PMDT to begin with?

Can't find the source, but the leaked footage is definitely Lyndis and Knuckles PSA on PM engine.

Plus, the posted codes have:

Thank you! I had some doubts concerning the leaks.
If Lyn and Knuckles were confirmed, then I hope we'll get the Sami model someday, too! A friend of mine will love her!

It's not just a model

We've been having issues with our [censored]ty host. We'll be migrating soon, as Miacis pointed out above.

So Sami had more than the model so far, huh. Well, hopefully the leak eventually happens, in a way it doesn't harms your future projects.

Hmm. It's weird posting on the forum. I was never the type to be on forum, just cared more for the results of my mods than to actually socialize  :-\. I regret that a bit to be honest.
Well to the point. I just wanted to give my respects to the greatest brawl modding team. No rather the most successful brawl modding team. There are plenty of great modders still active and I'm sure we will create something grand from the ashes of what PM was. I learned a lot from studying PM's files. I learned about quality. Their mods showed that, and as a model rigger and creator it tested my limits. They made me as good as I am now, and I am still learning.

Sorry for the long and odd post but I just wanted someone to read it

Out of curiousity, is the leaked build the closest that Project M was to conpletion, or does there poetientially wxist a conpleted Isaac and Skull Kid assets somewhere?

Keep in mind, I'm not asking for them, but I'd like to know what the concepts for them wete because I was really looking forward to both if these characters before the announcement.

The download link is gone because they didn't want to risk a direct lawsuit from Nintendo, since they were competing at the time.(Which is why they took it down, because Nintendo knows of P:M, but, according to P:M's lawyer, it was likely that releasing the new version could cause a lawsuit from Nintendo, as, since Nintendo's SSB Wii U's DLC is the same characters, they would be directly competing.)

Neither of the assets for those two exist in any completed state.

I'd preface your speculation with a disclaimer stating it's speculation. It's alright to assume, but don't state it as fact.

You're correct. However, although it is technically speculation, it is most likely true, because according to something Br3 posted, an image showing a post in some other forum or whatnot, in answer to the first FAQ, the second answer, he says that if Nintendo had come at them with the lawsuit, it would have likely been because of direct competition and/or more issues with IPs. Notice how he uses the word "likely", indicating probable cause, but still technically conjecture.

I'd be interested in this as well, and I suspect that it does exist, at least for Isaac and Sami. Someone posted a video of Isaac and Sami fighting each other, and it looked as though Sami was quite a bit further along in development than her incarnation in the leaked dev build


Title: Re: [Official] Project M discussion: RIP

^ I've seen that too.

I didn't know if it was a further build or just a different version of the build.

To my knowledge, as I also may have explained to Nebulon, the leaked build doesn't have the versions of Isaac and Sami featured in that specific video. More updated versions of those two characters exist somewhere out there. I, too, am interested in seeing just what else was updated, even if the characters themselves won't be released.

Someone set up a github page to try to accomplish this task: https://github.com/Sarrg/Project-M-PAL

Now, I don't know if people with coding skills will actually contribute, but we'll see. I plan to help out a bit when I have time, between other projects, extracurriculars, and schoolwork.

Post by: Sirkura on December 29, 2015, 10:16:39 AM
PM used wiimfi if i'm not mistaken, so it should be working fine. i don't believe they ever made thier own servers. in fact i believe it was asked before and they flat out said it wasn't gonna happen as they didn't have the funds or means to host their own.
