Nope. Supervegeta's still in the process of ripping the sprites from the video. And due to work and other personal interests I haven't done anything yet with the sprites Supervegeta already provided.

And recently I've been just playing mugen for fun again. When looking for certain characters I've been disappointed with what I find. Silver Samurai and Wolverine are two of my favorites that I couldn't find a great version of. There were some ok ones but that's about it. I already started on a Silver Samurai. Wolverine may not come until later but I think I'd like to make a Wolverine too. Plus there's some bleach characters I'd still like to get done like Kenpachi, Uryuu, and Yoruichi. Belmont still needs a lot of sprite cleaning after the screenshots are taken (which is something I'm stuck doing myself) so he's sort of on the back burner and won't be worked on right away. He won't be worked on until late 2014 at the earliest.

While I am a huge Castlevania fan, the LoS series is just too far off to be considered a Castlevania game imo. I wish it were Alucard, Richter, or Simon you had chosen.... But this is an ambitious project and interesting. I hadn't seen this until just now, or I would have commented on it long ago. I wish you luck with this and will keep an eye out for progress.

How about Sander's Wolerine? Has it just not aged well?

Personally I love LoS. Plot is a little weird in the first game because it's nothing but Gabriel being an idiot and blindly following instructions and killing everything on his path. I like Gabriel though, mostly just because the whole reboot thing of him becoming Dracula. Anyways, Just to clarify you know I'm not drawing these animations right? They're made by the LoS developers. So it was either Gabriel or nothing because as far as I'm aware there aren't any other games that have these types of animations. I mean LoS Mirror of Fate sorta has these same attacks but I think their preview clips use the regular 3d models and don't have as many abilities.

How about Sander's Wolerine? Has it just not aged well?
I'm out of the loop on good Wolverines. I didn't notice the author name Sander in the mugenguild database for a Wolverine creator. Then again I might've overlooked some because Wolverine has been in several Capcom games and wasn't categorized on one page on the database. I'll have to check Sander's out, thanks. Hopefully it lives up to my expectations because I've been dying for a good Wolverine and settled for Koldskool's. Which now that I look at it is an edit of Sander's? Either way I think I'd still like to make my own Wolverine, or at least edit someone else's.

A bit of news on this project. Back to ground zero it seems because I found something new today. So no coding or spriting done yet and back to the drawing board on sprite ripping.

As I was looking through the game files for Lords of Shadow 2 I found a folder with all the video files for the sketch animations. They're in a bik format which is viewable on PCs with the appropriate program. This means top notch quality instead of youtube ripping. This is for Lords of Shadow 2 though, I don't have LoS1 anymore but it's probably the same. But this means LoS2 Gabriel/Dracula is now a good possibility. I also have the DLC Alucard animations. There's not as many animations for him but he is a possibility. Here's a few screenshots from the new videos.

Alucard:



Gabriel / Dracula:



Things were still just in the sprite ripping stage before this but things are on pause now because of this new info. I'll have to get LoS1 again and check out if it also has the same format. If so supervegeta will have to scratch his current progress and start over. I think it'll be worth it though if LoS1 has the same format of videos.

Very nice.  Those new sketches look Way easier to work with. 

Seems like it might it be worth keeping the old already finished rips around, just in case they turn out to make good basis for specific moves.  I mean once the new sprites are made it might end up being easy to position certain ones over the old animations with minimal tweaking to get some additional content. Just a thought.  I'm excited for this project.

Thanks, but I already got them.

And looks like yes LoS1 has the video files available for easy viewing. Here's a screenshot.


One thing I prefer about the LoS2 animations though is that the lines are much darker and more solid. The LoS1 animations are still a bit rough and pencily so it's gonna take a lot more work to convert those into simple sprite form. Eventually both LoS 1 and 2 Gabriel will be done. Maybe LoS 2 Alucard too.


One thing that would be nice is if someone out there would be willing to rescale some of these animations. There's a few here and there that have the camera zoomed out so they're not the same scale as most of his other animations.

Here's a rough draft of Alucard's stance. Mostly just needs the floor shadow removed and then it's ready to go.

What software did you used to convert the video to images ? I have BIK PLAYER but it haven't such options

Supervegeta uses Media Player Classic to play the videos, I use a random spin off of bik player that's bundled into one of my random PS3 related toolsets. Neither one converts them to images, we just stream the video and use Screenget to take all the screenshots for us. Then sift through manually and delete the unnecessary ones and then I go about cleaning them.

This is the last animation I'm cleaning for a while. Just wanted to show this rough draft for one of Alucard's slashes. It's missing startup and end frames but you can see the attack itself.
