Note to mods: I was encouraged to create a new topic (quoted below) since this one is ancient, and the new topic will be used for my future endeavors as well (assuming I update more frequently). This topic is old and can be removed. If I broke any rules, I apologize and would be happy to fix the error.
If the thread is going to initially be for the PSA then a new thread wouldn't be a bad idea. Besides you can always make sure you don't need anything from the old thread and remove it.
Then just repost your stuff.

http://www.mediafire.com/?xdwyqyx0nmmI'm pleased to introduce my first PSA hack, Asch fon Fabre from Tales of the Abyss. If you're unfamiliar with this game, here's a YouTube video that demonstrates the skills I've tried to recreate:
(Yes, it's almost 10 minutes, but only about the first minute or so relates to this project.
)
This is just v1, which mostly consists of merely special changes. I'm not finished with him - I'm already working on A moves - but I figured I would go ahead and post what I had to see what you all think. In most cases, the SFX still need work, but other than that I'm pretty satisfied with the changes I've made.
Here's a basic changelog:
---
A-A combo:
two different swings, but still basically the same as Marth's
FTilt: Lightning Blade
Asch thrusts his sword forward, causing a small lightning strike.
UTilt, DTilt: Unchanged
---
FSmash: Devil's Inferno
Identical to Marth's FSmash (for now), but with an added fire effect.
USmash: Light Spear
Shock waves propel the enemy upwards into an upward sword thrust.
DSmash: Unchanged
---
Neutral-B: Demon Fist
Asch unleashes a quick shock wave along the ground. Range is just under half of FD. Fun for just annoying people, It doesn't even stun as much as Fox's gun because of its speed, though, so don't expect to keep anyone away with it.
Side-B (ground): Rending Thrust
Asch thrusts his sword forward and causes upward shockwaves to rip through the enemy and propel them upwards. Good damage, but the knockback isn't great.
Side-B (air): Swallow Fury
Asch flies forward, slashes, then turns and does an upward slash. If this connects, two more hits follow in an upward combo, the final one having good knockback. It takes some practice to get the distance right on this, but it's pretty good damage.
Up-B: Fang Blade
Asch swings his sword normally, then launches himself upward with sword raised. By continuing to hold B, Asch can combo into Havoc Strike (though it generally won't hit the same enemy you hit with Fang Blade).
Down-B (Ground): Guardian Field
Asch generates a field of light around him to keep foes at bay. Its primary use is a defensive skill, and it's got a pretty good amount of lag afterwards.
Down-B (Air): Havoc Strike
Asch descends rapidly with energy in his blade. Can be used as a spike, but it's difficult to recover from.

Grab/Throws: Unchanged
Taunts: Unchanged
FS: Unchanged (but I know exactly what I want to do with it...)

I love feedback. Seriously. But please, if you tell me that he sucks, tell me why he sucks so I can work on fixing him.
