Hitboxes are suppose to assume and account for motion as opposed to just covering the surface of the sprite for an individual frame. Like C.A.N'd said, this ensures that gaps are not created and the character can take/deliver damage in a consistent way.My reference to redoing them was to not only the overcomplicated boxes, but also the ones with infinite priority all over the place. Editing a box here or there or editing some frames but not others might cause the character to feel inconsistent or off. If some of the boxes are going to be cleaned up, mine as well just redo them all to ensure the same style concerning placement and number of boxes.
The less CLSN's and the more simple (neat) their placement, the better.Better placed CLSNs can be easily adjusted to characters and are easy to create.Better placed and less detailed CLSN's work smoother with other characters also (Grabs, custom states, etc.).Bad CLSN's also, like you all said, have a risk of slipping through gaps.
Yes they are meant to account for motion, Not JUST the motion of the player who is going to get hit, but also the attacking player.If you obeyed the complex method, clsn1's would basically be on the point of the fist, but you don't do that, you extend beyond/above/below as well to account for the fact that a real person would change their aim.Very rarely are clsn boxes pinpoint accurate in official games. There is a clsn viewer for the Vs games, you could look at that, capcom have some odd clsn's, but they're definitely not as bad as some of those shown here.
Ah, I understand clearly now. If a projectile were traveling at a character with 80 tight clsns who is also moving quickly (more than their width per tick) toward the projectile, they might miss each other, so clsn both 1's and 2's (1 fish 2 fish red fish blue fish) have to account for the motion to assure there is an overlap somewhere to register a connect. That all makes much more sense now... shit, I'm going to have to take another look at spawn and duke. Cyanide - Yeah I've seen you post some screenies of that. Is it some kind of memory access thing in mame?
- c.SP could get envshake when hitting the ground.- Many basics are misaligned.- symbiote slug misses at close range.- Supers (on Mugen 1.0) have the super BG displayed badly, with all 4 squares appearing.- The web explod during when Web ball catches the opponent could get a shadow.- You're better off scrapping the hitsparks and taking nicer ones (just my opinion, but I really dislike them and think they don't fit the style).
Quote- symbiote slug misses at close range.Are you sure? I was really positive we fixed that. What character were you testing against?Not ignoring the rest, I just thought we made a point of fixing all the close range missing stuff.
