Not needed, revisions like that typically only affect the Program Data, not the GFX data. Ya can see this in cases like multiple title screens per region, each ROM uses the same GFX ROMs, it's just the code/text that's different. Ya should be able to mess with SSF2T and all should be fine

Finally came back to this, and finished some old business!
The Stitcher is now truly compatible with CPS1 Games! It supports Forgotten Worlds, SF2, King of Dragons, Knights of the Round, Megaman the Power Battle among others!
From what I can tell it works bug free, but please let me know if adding a new game introduces a new headache. In the meantime, enjoy!

Sorry for taking a bit to get back to ya! I've addressed every problem listed as far as I can tell
The character loads development things cause he is also meant to be a Black Heart Template of sorts eventually so thought it harmless to leave the notes in for anybody that opens him in Fighter Factory
The FX are more intentional though some of them do need some redraws (the Hell Hound FX spring to mind)
The hitspark thing is funny as that's actually something that occurs with official Black Heart characters, so hey, points for authenticity!
In all seriousness, he was designed in Black Heart specifically, not general Mugen. Seeing as the Ikemen versions seems to be essentially ports of said versions with GOs bells and whistles, I don't plan to make Barnabus perfect for general Mugen and thus am leaving it as is
Maybe once I get around to porting him to Ikemen I'll make a 1.0 offshoot, but for now it is what it is
Thanks a ton for the feedback tho, mega appreciated! Even if it did make me feel a bit silly lol

I appreciate that, but considering he doesn't have an AI, not all of The Black Hearts system stuff like stage helpers and the like as well as just a ton of polish befitting an official character, I wouldn't quite call him done. It really is more of a Beta, and this thread is to garner feedback and show subsequent progress
As for GitHub, I find it comfy having separate branches for releases, much more so than Mediafire. The Code/Download ZIP thing is a tad clunky but not overbearingly so I think

Happy Halloween first and foremost! Last year, i started work on my own original character for The Black Heart, and for the past while, i've been really crunching in dev time to get out a Beta for the holiday, so here it is!
Link to the character:
https://github.com/Yoshin2222/Barnabus
BETA PATCH 1 - Address feedback from PotS as well as fixes some small snags
https://github.com/Yoshin2222/Barnabus/tree/20231114---BETA-PATCH-1
His sprites absolutely need some TLC, but for the most part I'm quite happy with how he turned out
For authenticity (or rather because I'm weird like that) Barnabus was made on the WinMugen version of The Black Heart, and the plan is to finalize him there before porting him to Ikemen like official characters were. He's lacking AI as of right now, and he could use more frames to iron him out but he's functionally almost all the way there
Any feedback is more than welcome, my goal is to make him feel as authentic as possible, and while I've tried to the best of my ability, I'm by no means perfect. Anyway, lemme know what ya think, and have fun!

Not an update to the Stitcher, but definitely a useful sister script for it
A Palette flipper. Detailed in the CPS2 video, ya need to muck with .act files to get the tiles looking correct in TM. This script simply lets ya enter the name of the palette ya want flipped, and generates a proper version you can use!
Chucking the raw palette in to TM
VS the same palette but flipped by the script

So hey, this guy is not dead!
Been working on him on and off (a lot of off if i'm honest) for a while now, so there's much more done for him now than what's in the thread. He's a fully hittable dummy, he has block sprites, Standing Punches are done and he has a CR_LP and CR_LK. Just today his forward dash was completed! Think i finally have a process i'm comfortable with so can much more confidently say he'll be updated more frequently now in between Broly stuff

Nothing about the code references the roundstate at all, either ya implemented it wrong or your State 5900 scuffs it somehow
Make sure no vars are accidentally being mixed, not sure if ya know about SwissArmyKnife but that can also help find blemishes

Small update! Adds a little flexibility to importing Program data, and adds support for a couple more games. That makes 65 games so far!
--------11/01/2023: Rev 1.3--------
######################### Improved PRG Interleaving! #########################
The script has become more flexible by introducing import parameters. They work
much and such the same as append, only they load the data to the start of the file
as opposed to slapping it on the end. This allows games like Saturday Night Slam-Masters
to have all it's program data properly read. Admittedly a bit slap dash but should get the job
done. Let me know if any bugs spring up
EXAMPLE:
#Import this data first before we interleave anything
prg_import = ["mbe_23e.8f",0x80000]
import_swapendian = 2 #Swap the endian. 2 Indicates a length of 16-bits, so every 2 bytes
######################### NEWLY SUPPORTED GAMES #########################
---Graphics Data ----
ringdest - Ring of Destruction/SlamMasters 2
---Program Data ----
forgottn - Forgotten Worlds
---Graphics and Program Data ----
3countb - 3 Count Bout/Fire Suplex
aodk - Aggressors of Dark Kombat
punisher - The Punisher
slammast - Saturday Night SlamMasters

The tile execution is pretty impressive. I just wish you'd made the different layers have more difference in color.
Couple of non-issues:
- You left debugbg on
- Likewise there are 61 unused palettes in the sff
- For the extra flavor you could've used CPS-2 camera parameters
Drat! I had a SFF showing every WIP version to send to the commissioner. Must've forgotten to remove them from the public one. My bad!
Wdym by camera parameters? Stages are definitely not my strong suit so i'm not sure what ya meant here

Sorry for the late response, i get sidetracked easily lol
Anyway, most of those games are easy to enough to add yaself. Simply add a resource file with the needed info and ya good. If it's CPS1/2 or Neo-Geo that is
Haven't really delved in to PGM yet, and those other games store GFX in different ways i don't really think i care enough to learn about tbh
In regards to the whole sprite thing, there is no bit. Ya get the raw tiles, you'd have to combine em yourself. Ya could study how games assemble sprites to get that exact data or whatnot but still
Of course it's possible, but most sound files are raw so the stitcher isn't needed for em. That's another field i want to study eventually but not rn

Was commissioned a while back to make a fighting game mockup, but because i'm extra for no reason at all, decided to mockup the fighting game in Mugen (Here is the final thing if ya curious)
The idea was to try and replicate a CPS2 stage as faithfully as i could. There are 3 sprites representing the 3 background layers and every sprite is composed of 16x16 tiles, each using one 16 colour pallete (least to the best of my ability as far as i can tell)
Good learning experience if nothing else, hope ya dig it!

Yet another update! The Stitcher has undergone some retooling, and can now interleave/append program data! This makes editing code/values much simpler! Alongside that, the script now displays the status of your ROMs files, as well as if you have interleaved GFX/PRG data already, hopefully making it more clear what ya can and can't do at any given time. Lastly, quite a few games have been added, such as Ghouls 'n Ghosts, Caddilacs and Dinosaurs, Alien VS Predator, among others! Check the first post for the Github revision 1.2! Refer to readme.txt and what's new.txt for more info!
