So, a while back, when I was getting started, I made a God Rugal and profited from it .Then I made another character, started a third one, did some stages.But then I went into lurker-mode.NAO, with this new mugen version (and other motivations for me), I've decided to remake all my previous characters (err there's only two) and finish the third one, which I'm not gonna post crap about it so none pressures me and stuff HAHA.For now, God Rugal, since I'm a Rugal fanboy.Finished making the basics, so now it's in "punching-bag" state. I'll begin coding the basic attacks and stuff this weekend. Also, I'm aiming to make every FX of the characters hi-res and colour-modificable, just like many other creators out there.I'll leave you some pics (to keep the mods from dumping this ):ALSO, how would you optimize this sprite (and its subsequent animation) to look kewl and stuff? I don't know much about this graphic stuff, so a little help would be great.Suggestions, comments, critics, etc. are welcome as always .
God Rugal 3.0 eh? I'm guessing he be more stronger and cheaper than the other God Rugal? Also, is he going to have anything different?
Actually, I'd prefer it to be less cheap and more balanced.And yes, the idea at least is to add some stuff.

But work fast, or I'll pressure you with your 3rd WIP.

Just give him his Rugal spin. NAOI never liked the Dead End Screamer much despite liking Rugal, but I figure that move could be improved looks-wise if it involved more obvious Gato-like neck-snapping and less actual silly spinning. With Gouki's killer intent thin going on, I'd figure he'd go for the blunt, brutal approach.
I'm saying try not to make it so cvs2 accurate..because warusaki has that belt lol..jk jk.But imo try making him different then all the other rugals out there. Like add dead end screamer if you can. Or change up his sgs. also adding that combo he had in kof were he would feed the opponent some punches then end off with a genocide cutter..i forgot the name of that move though!!
Well, after having to remake almost all my CMD and CNS files, I've managed to make some progress on this guy. Things should get easier from now on. Oh, and please don't expect an AI in its first release. First, I want to have a solid character with nice FX and good gameplay.Btw, does this Reppuken look good enough? I mean, the "hi-resed" I did myself to it, etc.
What about G. Rugal eyes and hand colour separation?That should be great, I had done some frames - the basics only.
Finished the basic attacks (standing, crouching and jumping).Gonna start up with the specials in these days. Except for the Reppuken which I already made .Hero. said, October 27, 2009, 10:55:18 pmWhat about G.

Maybe I'll think of something that looks good enough.

HOLY.FUCKING.SHIT.AWESOME! if need help, just ask (i received your pm about fx, but actually, im pretty bad in that department, lol)
Moar hi-res FX.Genocide Cutter, as before, works like this:weak kick = 2 hitsnormal kick = 3 hitsstrong kick = 4 hits
I was thinking on spicing up the God End, since it's God Rugal's signature move if you KO your opponent with it, like him and Shin Gouki do when they finish up with a SGS. Any ideas? I was thinking on putting a big "R" on the background, or something like that.
Actually, a few months ago I made a edit of G. Rugal (yours) but I dont release it never. It contains colour separation, Special win by G End and more supers, Kaiser Phoenix, G Rugal Destruction, DEad End Screamer, more intros, etc etc...Yo hablo tambien español Lotf, si quieres que te enseñe sobre la separacion de colores, solo mandame un pm
Why not spicing it up for real and completely change the end if the move is about to kill the opponent, a little like Warusaki's Captain Commando, which Lv3 will "summon" his NxC friends if he KOs his opponent. On the last hit, make the BG black and G.Rugal disappear, leaving only the opponent at the center of the screen, and do whatever you want with him from there. (dunno, think about multi-hits very fast paced à la Melty Blood)
PotS said, October 30, 2009, 07:05:55 pmMake P2 explode MK style from all the Orochi juice put into him. YES!!!!1
KoF95 reference with G.End victory: he tears into his chest screaming like in his original Omega Rugal victory pose.Makes more sense if it's the final round, so he can destroy his shirt and not have to worry about getting a new one for the following round.Then again, he already has the "ten" kanji in the chest as a victory pose... unless he draws it with his own hands by tearing into his chest.Edit: fixed unfortunate typo.
how about he throws p2 off the screen like he does gouki in his intro or p2 explodes off rugals hand like normal but then he catches and gigantic pressure p2 into 2 walls
I'm thinking for the god end just make the ending of it like how it is in his intro with gouki. Throwing him to the other side of the screen instead of him blasting upwards.
How about making him stay at his God End pose? (Where he just leave his arm afloat.)FadeToNothingness said, October 31, 2009, 09:35:32 amI'm thinking for the god end just make the ending of it like how it is in his intro with gouki. Throwing him to the other side of the screen instead of him blasting upwards. That works too.
this is something i wanted to do with Asura: after the orochi pillar and P2 (does whatever u decide with him), Rugal gets some in a rageing pose, a la Orochi Yashiro, and screams while the envshake idea engineering: somehow, use the blacknoah technology, maybe converting the p2 body into a metal statue, but a la magaki style, while Rugla is still holding himidea engineering2: Fatality lol
Marancv said, October 31, 2009, 02:34:48 pmidea engineering: somehow, use the blacknoah technology, maybe converting the p2 body into a bronze statueOr at least doing it against especific opponents, like Akuma and Guile.

I would only need those EDITED SPRITES . Haha so for now I'll work with the existing sprites.Btw, finished KaiserWave yesterday, the idea is to finish all special (rugal has alot ) by this weekend.
Loona said, October 30, 2009, 08:27:37 pm...he tears into his chest creaming like in...Might want to fix up that post there, Loona.
There's are just suggestions. I think it'de be cool to see his hair, eye, and teeth color split seperately ... he'de be more palette friendly ... I'de also think a move where he does the wall slam on each side and ends up in the middle only to hold the character over his head and then finishing them off with his cvs2 super would be badass.Edit:I'll do the seperate sprites for you if Manarchv wants to help that'd be legit.
he looks like one of those guys who'd kick yer ass with just his pinky finger....you punch him in the chest to find out you broke yer arm from the impact....not a dude you'd wan't to fuck with...looks classy too....awesome
its like you can give any sprite to marancv, tell him how to modify it, and he will do it like a machine.
Ness - The Avatar said, November 04, 2009, 12:22:32 amI can do color seperation dude. I'll help? Sure, that'll be excellent. Just tell me what you need from me.Ness - The Avatar said, November 04, 2009, 12:22:32 amI'm not leaching either.I wouldn't care at all if you or anyone did.
I'll need the copy of your character ... no ... I'm not going to host the character or some shit. If you're doing the hi-res effects similar to pots ... like where the colors are all grouped at the palette that'll work ... i'll even seperate gouki's gloves from his skin ... eyes color etc. just for fun ... dude ... and i wanna help with the sound effects etc. for your rugal because ... i want this one to be the best. warusa is the most accurate but this will be a badass potsish g rugal ...
yeah.. you only need the sprites Ness. maybe the act file also. Also, i think only you find funny to color separate sprites.
Then as much he'll need the sff, or just the sprite pack for working with. I'd like to help, but I'm a bit busy with two bitches by the moment.Good project LotF, good luck with it.Have a nice day!!
Ok, sent the SFF stuff to Ness, let's see what he can do .And fucking exams are a bitch D:. So no big update for now, just that I'm now hi-resing Rugal Execution and God Press effects.
Okay I shall be starting on this shit tonight. I have to rake the yard and go to an interview then I have sexy time with a lady friend but after that around 10 I'll be able to start ... I'll get like his stance and walk anamation done and you tell me what you think kk?
filtered KFM?? ROFLbut...where'd he go ?? anyway--- BEHOLD OF RUGAL´S SICKNESS!!Spoiler, click to toggle visibiltyI didnt added the ripp in his chest bc first i wanna know what would be better, if the Tenma kanji like in his other ripping suit winpose, or just a blooding injurie, a la Orochi? i prefer the second, but hey, is not my Rugal..
QuoteI didnt added the ripp in his chest bc first i wanna know what would be better, if the Tenma kanji like in his other ripping suit winpose, or just a blooding injurie, a la Orochi? i prefer the second, but hey, is not my Rugal..The blooding injurie a la Orochi by a LOT.Looks more badass and stuff .
I was going to ask if it would be possible to have a version of this move that just ends in hits, a la KOF 98, but it's your call, I guess. Still, Rugal's sprites don't look all that great with transparency - use an effect around him with alpha trans instead.Also, ONE-UPSMANSHIP TIME:Pretty much just shading fixes regarding Rugal's manly chest. Also, I edited his face in the end of the pose to look more like his original KOF '95 look. And also:I know both GIFs are too fast, I'll remedy that soon.
A few more frames and delays in the animation so the chest-ripping looks slower and more painful and that'll look as badass as the original.As for that dash special, perhaps the hard attack button could make him use the grab, and the weaker button could do the 98 dash-through version?
The effects look pretty bright, maybe adjust the palette a bit so the gradient transitions more softly.Also for the skull effects, if you haven't done those already, vyn made some pretty nice looking ones.Good luck with this project!

And as for the second... Does anyone really use the Ground Smash super? The one where he charges at you. I'm seriously thinking on removing that and replacing it with the rush special from 98. This guy has MANY specials D:

And this is how the Orochi Pillars and God End should more less look, maybe I'll add some more FX for its release:Spoiler, click to toggle visibiltyI haven't decided yet as to what to put as "HYPER FX", though D:And I swear that in action, the skulls look nice .Ness - The Avatar said, November 09, 2009, 09:54:26 pmIf you're adding new sprites to the .sff you may want to send me a new copy of the .sff mang.I'll send you a renewed SFF this week. There are no more Rugal sprites, just FX.
Just to let you know that this guy is still very active. It's just that final evaluations are coming up and are chewing up my time. For the time being, the crowd-pleasing obligatory SGS AND the hyper fx I'm gonna be using blue = lvl 1 hyperyellow = lvl 2 hyperred = lvl 3 hyperred + potrait = supah lvl 3 hyper@Marancv: Where's my pay-free edited winpose .

QuoteI didnt added the ripp in his chest bc first i wanna know what would be better, if the Tenma kanji like in his other ripping suit winpose, or just a blooding injurie, a la Orochi?Meaning that it's missing some frames to be complete. Specifically, the frames where he stabs himself on the chest with his hand, making that scar .

Marancv said, November 18, 2009, 08:40:27 pmthe frames are there, just play with ticks at your tasteI'd swear it had more frames. Nevermind, that winpose's been added if you defeat p2 with God End.Also, finished coding minor stuff such as powerup, dodge (stuff like that) AND all moves that are custom-state intense. I now hate coding Gigantic Pressure-esque moves . In fact, I'm almost done. Just missing to add the BONUS stuff . Extra stuff, as of now:- That dashing move from kof98- Return to Nothingness special of Orochi, because I think it's awesome .- Any suggestions?Some screenies (also showing lvl2 hyper fx):
You're right in that the pose lacked the "ripping into chest" part, though using the timing in Marancv's GIF will almost deliver the promised effect, though whose version of the pose you use (mine or Marancv's) is entirely up to you.

you should make an :orochi state:" were he bends down like wild iori does and you can start racking up combos right there and then he could do orochi's special, so what do you think ???just imagine it could be kof's answer to shin lv2 akuma

Wouldn't really fit rugal to be all hunched over if it never happened to him in the games.
Ok, I'm almost done with this guy. I'm just missing some fx here and there, add the Orochi full-screen hyper, and I think that's it, then it'll be the "God Rugal RC 1.0" .Btw, is there an official name for this move?
