Mayor Mike Haggar by Acey

A few spriters had started to make Haggar but never finished. I decided it was about time that someone did and in the process used sprites from some of my predecessors. My biggest delay was making all the sprites match the same style and when you're taking sprites and shrinking them down, you have ALOT of clean up to do; in the end I ended up replacing most of the older work anyways.

Considering that Zangief was made based on Haggar and replaced Haggar early on in SFII there are a lot of similarities between the two. Capcom wrote it into Zangief's history claiming that the two are rivals who often steal moves from each other. With this in mind I would like to point out that Haggar is not a Zangief clone, and I hope you all fell that way too.

Haggar Stage by x-boy

x-boy has been one of the greatest people to work with in Mugen, I just wish both our natural languages were the same, but never the less he has been kind enough to let us use this stage he created in the SMvC project for Haggar. My favorite part is walking to the right and watching the statue of liberty as it changes from night time to morning.

Nice, only two minor complaints.

The standing HP animation could be a lot smoother, and both Haggar and the opponent are sort of pulled back after the Flying Lariat hyper.

Also, he totally is a Zangief clone... He's just supposed to be, so it's okay. Making a Ken without a Shoryuken and Hadouken so that he wouldn't be a 'Ryu clone' would be equally as stupid. They're similar characters, no worries.

Agreed.

Haggar has a justifiable story-related reason to be a clone, so it's okay!

Fighting games all come with their own clones.

If it matters, the only thing that differentiates him from Zangief is his pipe.

That, and his appearance (obviously

).

Also, Haggar's voice is PERFECT!

I can honestly say I have been waiting for Haggar for a long time and I finally got something decent thanks to Haggar and X-Boy much respect!

finally the holy trinity is reunited again! (Cody-Guy-Haggar)

Thank's Acey, i now beginning understand how much work is behind this little char

keep going!

Spidercide · « **Reply #18 on:** May 05, 2009, 05:33:45 PM »

Great release Ace, have a suggestion I notice when Hagger does his Lariat and SPD he doesn't say anything and there are no wind effects during either move even though they were prevalent in Zangief's. You should consider adding them.

Acey · « **Reply #19 on:** May 05, 2009, 05:40:04 PM »

Yeah, I still have a lot more vocals and sounds to add, I think I had the important ones in for this release though, the whooshes would have been good ones to have.
