maybe cross forum wip?

[verz36]

hey, I was thinking about maybe a cross forums wip, what do you guys think? it can help bring people together. if anybody is interested, post here and lets start floating ideas..

[warecus]

sounds cool if they can decide on a char and find trustworthy people not to sell out the sprites

[verz36]

Well first we need to see who would be willing to contribute. Then we can decide if a male or female character and if dc or marvel.

[HyperVoiceActing]

Well the way I see it, it needs to be a character either so iconic or so deserving of a MUGEN version that it'd definitely bring people together. And dead off hand, I don't know of any character with a big enough fanbase that'd bridge different forums in such a fashion. And there's also the issue of quality control (ie inconsistency) from the different spriters involved.

I mean I'd love to see it happen, but it will indeed be tricky

[verz36]

I can handle quality control.. ill do any resizing or fixing. just need to see who is on board.

[Superjoker]

since you are handling quality control and pretty much calling the shots,

why not donate one of your many unfinished WIPs?
or why not use one of the many formulas Sei did for us?

instead of starting from scratch? or doing a char that is irrelevant?

do you trust the community enough?

we can use your templates, base formulas, palettes, style etc.

it could be the start of something great? you could lead the new blood into the right path!

what do you think?
 

[verz36]

donating anything I have going wont be good because I don't want people to see it as if im doing this for my own purpose. im trying to get the community involve here and bring people close.

[Spidermew]

It would be good practice and might get a character out quicker.
I would contribute probably.

Personally i find it easier to sprite the male form.
If DC i suggest pulling an idea from Elseworlds or Tangent.....
If Marvel... I say we do a version of Mysterio,  or maybe one of the original Thunderbolts, like Citizen V?

[-Whiplash-]

I can attempt to help, not very good at spriting but I'm a decent coder.

IDK who you could choose to work on, I'd like to see booster gold but I don't think there is too much interest in making him.

[helio]

The truth is that I'm still learning how to edit the code and anims, and I can't help in spriting. But I'm willing to help as much as I am able if the project is focused on some relevant char.
I think the idea of merging people in a common project is great. It is supose that we are a comunity and there a good examples of great chars done by a team. You can count on me .. and my mediocre skills.

[verz36]

you don't need to be an experience spriter to work on this wip, there is many ways you can help. for this wip we talking about, it will be different. once we agree on who we going to make, we can have a head sheet, a detail sheet and a pal. a lot of this will be cut and paste. we make a written set of specials and hyper for the character, we set a main base. and then we can start working on what moves can fit this character no matter if the base its a female character or any character out there, we can start converting the moves to the base and then edit them. spriters can help in many ways not just editing the whole sprite. if they are not good with details, they leave that out to another person and so on.. so the main thing here is have a plan..

so far I see many want a male character because is easy. so some of the names I can think of are

1- mysterio which was named already
2- booster gold
3- blackbolt
4- winter soldier

 lets hear those names, post characters you guys think can be cool for this..

[dev.]

I think Mysterio would make a great forum wip. I remember another forum had Captain Britain as a wip and they were pretty close to finish him; they had all basics done if I remember correctly. This might work. If you guys make up your mind on what character you want to make, I will gladly lend a hand if I fancy the charater.

About BlackBolt we can use the old sprite by Miguel on Scruffy?

[Sinister1ne]

I've got a lot of energy devoted to sinister... However, I wouldn't mind helping as well just to break up the monotony. I like blackbolt, (I'm a really big fan of blackbolt) but I'm scared he will be another banshee on steriods. So, if we do go with blackbolt he will have to be VERY unique in comparison to banshee.

[verz36]

yes if blackbolt, we can use that and many more that I got.. as 
matter of fact I was putting together a head sheet and other things for him for my own wip but he is not that advanced and I would not mind if we all work on him.. as for unique, for sure its all about that plan im talking about..

Maybe post a model of him such as colors, bases etc, so people can follow your design.

[daraku]

ehi dudes, i vote for BlackBolt here you can see the animation Miguel did









Arkady is doing another BlackBolt, so is better we dedicate our time to create another wip

[verz36]

if we choose blackbolt, he will look different, his details on the chest will look more accurate. I got some things I was working on that we can use for him but lets see what others want. plus for a team hyper I got some things too that I was working on ( lockjaw)...

 he would look more like this...



and for an intro and team hyper, he can use this... its not finished yet...

[Sinister1ne]

Solution: So with Arkady's blessing, we can help finish up that work... and start another cross forum wip. Haha! Nothing like teamwork! There should always be a cross forum wip is where I'm getting at.... we are a team.

 im not sure what you talking about... what do arkady have to do with giving any blessing? we not finishing anything, we starting a wip here so im clueless of what you talking about...

[dev.]

That's one hard design to follow. I see a heavily edited Cable in there, Cody's head and Sagat. Let me try one sprite tonight just to see my spriting level. What move do you need?

[verz36]

It's not hard at all, there is guile in there too and white too. See for quality control, I can help shape up, resize or any other thing we might need. All we need is a group or people willing and we get started. We set a character and a plan to get all sprites to look good even if some spritters are not experience. The wip will have some new moves so we are not just going to recolor a whole base and call it a character. This will be a good way for others to learn too.

It doesnt matter.
