Megaman X WIP Credits:
waroneday - Coding, minor sprite editing
Jesuszilla - Coding
YoungSamurai5 - Coding
AxKeeper (Inactive) - Providing original base sprites for Megaman X, no continued work from there
Empawk - Spriting, sounds, creative management
RamzaNeko (Inactive)- X armor hyper combos animations
Daeron (Inactive)- Intro and win animations
GTF (Inactive)- Run animation
supaman2525 - Sprite attack edits for specials and basics
IHighGamerI - High resolution energy blast animations
Mach3 - Sprite edits, sounds and coding
daraku - High resolution graphics effects
Nightmare Seth (Inactive)- Get hit animations
Rolento (Inactive)- Sprite transition edits for basic movement
Balthazar (Inactive)- Sprite transition edits for basic movement
!E (Inactive)- Standing idle single sprite edit, which influenced the look for Megaman X's head
WizzyWhipitWonderful - Sound effects  and voice rips manipulation
jweezy34 - Mark Gatha voice rips
A New Challenger - Big Portrait
A Secret Bro - Making the sprite base for a mini portrait


My current ideas for gameplay, concerning character movement are:
Forward Dash (Forward, Forward)
Backward Dash (Back, Back)
Double Jump (Up, then Up again while in mid-air)
Super Jump (Down, Up) - Cannot double stack with double jump
Air Forward Dash (Forward, Forward while in mid-air)
Air Backward Dash (Back, Back while in mid-air)
Wall Slide (Back, Back while next to the wall in mid-air)
Wall Climb (Hold Back during Wall Slide+Press appropriate direction of the wall. For Example: Hold back+Left to climbing left wall)
Roll (Hold Down+Forward or Backward, depending on direction you want to travel

During Wall Slide:
Punch
Kick
Buster Shot
Jump Off Wall will transition into a regular air state, which will allow him to perform default air attacks (punches, kicks, specials, etc)


[spoiler]For anyone working on my project, you may experience me sending you practically the same or similar messages repeatedly until I get a reply, to reassure myself that you got my message. I understand at times that this may be annoying and I have no intention to bother anyone.[/spoiler]

This is an open source project, the only conditions being that no one uses any part of this character for closed source characters or hentai characters. If any part of this character is used for a character, consider that character now open source. The material in this project is for open source projects only!

Hmm, the animation on those last 2 animations is rather nice!

Yeah, these sprites are looking nice. It'll be nice to have X in MUGEN or in a fighting platform at all for that matter. Do you also plan on making Zero? Just curious, nice job. :)

We have 2 Xs (Chaotic's and Magma Dragoon's) but neither are any good.

Thanks, and I am in need of spriting assistance. Do you do MVC style spriting? The fastest way to contact me for Mugen purposes is to PM me on Mugen Fighter's Guild. I will try to check up on this thread more often, though. Now that there is some feedback.

I never finished spriting Symbiote Spider-Man. I was going to consider revamping all the animations, attacks and such, but then realized it would take forever. So I decided not to. Not to mention, while I WAS working on him, his coder backed out.

No Zero is planned at this time.

Both are my inspiration to make my Megaman X good. Without their attempts, I most likely wouldn't decided to work on him.

If I could sprite, I would have made Forte by now, so sorry that I can't really help on that front other than give feedback on the sprites themselves. :(

Forte already has been made, btw. You can just edit him if you can get permission. He's in the IMT database.

@JZ: Yeah, Bass over at IMT was sprited really well. So well in fact he looks like an official work. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you asked JZ to code your own version of him.

@Empawk: Nice! Those X sprites are really good! Great job.  :)

Thanks, as we speak, a Nightmare Zero ground punch is being made and a dash punch is being made also. Once I get both, I will animate it and let you guys see it. We also have someone working on Z Saber attacks too. :)

That's correct. The light colored X sprites are the original beta appearance ones that I first edited from AxKeeper. The walk cycle will be redone if we need to use it. We plan to make a run instead.

It took a while, but I think I finally got a decent idea for the controls, concerning X's multple angle buster shots:

Multiple Angle Buster Shots:
Press Z: Diagonal Up Buster Shot
Hold Forward+Z: Forward Buster Shot
Hold Back+Z: Vertical Buster Shot

Charge Buster:
Hold Z (2-3 seconds and it begins charging the buster): Charge Buster
Press Z: Release charged buster shot
Title: Re: Megaman X WIP
Post by: empawk on May 21, 2012, 08:07:16 AM
Jesuszilla, can you code multiple angle buster shots?
Title: Re: Megaman X WIP
Post by: Jesuszilla on May 21, 2012, 03:46:57 PM
Yes, it's no problem at all. Just need proper diagonal buster effects (because using angledraw would look ugly).

So by proper diagonal buster effects, what exactly do you mean? Like you need me to draw the energy blasts diagonally?

If Z is heavy attack, then the default shouldn't be angled.

How about this?

HP - standard buster shot, chargeable
DP+P - Angled charge shot. LP = Crouch shot, MP = diagonal, HP = vertical
We could do that and I thought about that, but then I was like, there won't be room for his basic attacks then.

I want his basics to include:
3 different angle buster shots (standing)
3 different punches (standing)
3 different kicks (standing)

Ideas Basics For Standing & Dashing Controls:
Press z, z, z: Rapid Fire Buster Shot
Hold z (some seconds worth of time): Charge Buster
Press z (release quickly): Diagonal Buster Shot
Hold Forward+z: Forward Buster Shot
Hold Back+z: Vertical Buster Shot
F, F, z: Dash Buster Shot
F, F, y: Dash Medium Punch
F, F, x: Dash Light Punch
B, B, z: Backward Dash Buster Shot
B, B, a: Backward Dash Light Kick
B, B, a: Backward Dash Medium Kick
B, B, b: Backward Dash Heavy Kick
Press x: Light Punch (Press X again to perform another light punch with other hand)
y: Medium Punch
a: Light Kick
b: Medium Kick
c: Heavy Kick
x+y: Throw
y+z: Throw
a+b: Throw
b+c: Throw
Z Saber: Alternate attacks when basics can't reach, the Z Saber moves will be used in place of basic punches and kicks

Yes.

Also I'm not fond of the idea of using Z-saber just because... it's X. He can be awesome on his own without having to resort to Zero's weapons.

I'd like to pitch an idea I was going to implement in Forte (regarding multi-directional shots):

QCF+P: Pull out X buster
HP: Fire shot (can be done up to 3 times)
Can control direction of buster shot in 5 directions (B,UB,U,UF,F) (because down would be utterly useless). There will only need to be 3 unique animations (for switching between forward and back, he can just turn)
any K: Cancel

Whether or not you want to implement other weapons with using the X buster is up to you; though it'd be nice to have ideas of what other useful, UNIQUE weapons to use.

Also what I'm going to need is basic animations added to SFF (that includes walking) and attacks, properly aligned. I'll be glad to align the initial stance sprite and turning animation (since this is important to get correct). I'll also need a basic palette done, nice and organized (since this is original, it should be easy  :P).

Also, Zero-Sennin should be joining us on the project.

It's impossible to tell any details because Mediafire has heavily shrunken the image down to where the sprites are indecipherable.

Try downloading it and see if it still acts funny. I set it up for download and never meant for it to be viewed virtually.

I downloaded it and viewed without any issue.

Things are shaping up quite nicely, though I don't like the expression on his face on the multi-directional X Buster sprites (looks too happy).

daraku has joined the sprite team as our GFX guy. He'll be handling effects for our MVC Megaman X. He'll be spriting the effects in CVS style. It should look really good when he's done. I currently don't have any examples of his work for you guys. Maybe he'll post it when he has some. :)

I'm not fond of the new stance. Not only does it look jerky, but it looks a bit too animated for X. Not to say his stance should be like Mega Man's, but I do think X is a bit calmer than that.

EDIT: also holy hell those FX are very nice
