[Mod] DBZ Allstars

yeah I was thinking that too, but then again, he is Goku, he can fly and push himself from the sky
BUT I agree it is better for a classic dash attack

sure you did get back to work maaaan I miss you creations!

YEE! Now that I'm off uni, I can continue to work on Vegetable. I like that Gotenks counter. I'm guessing after the launch he will either fly up and smash down or tele up there and smash down?

[Harlequin]

What is still left to do on him?
Thanks man!

The idea of the launcher works like Deep's Launcher, where the player has some possibility to combo into it, but nothing is triggered automatically

[GeneralA]

Cool ideas there. I am following this. Reason I don't post is that there aren't ideas I can contribute with. Keep this up dudes!
Also, looking forward to see some work from PF; That would speed up the process XP.

[Harlequin]

Pf is working secretly

[Harlequin]

Walking on some fresh new walk - for non other than everybody's favourite character: Krillin


also the basic attacks update with the new stance




early run + run attack (yes I recycled the very old Goku's running for that haha)

[Harlequin]

Running Attack for C17- I can't wait to animate his hair to that haha (just imagine it swinging forward at the landing!)

[Harlequin]

First fast concept for C17 - yes I know he has black hair haha, it was just a test

also guys, get a bit more active in here

[Apocalipsis]

Damn, you're making progress really fast now.

Regarding the animations, they look dynamic and fresh. Would like to see some with finished sprites, though.
Also, C17 looks good. I like how every sprite is in a seamless style.

Are you going to release a beta with 3-4 chars? That would be cool.
In any case, keep up the good work.

[Harlequin]

thanks Apoc

yeah about finishing these sprites - my plan right now is to get out all animations fleshed out, then colour them and at the final part shade them. While I can work fast, it really occured to me that it is more the constant work that gets me to realize my/our dream of a great dbz mod.

I'd totally go for a beta release - yet I love jumping from one character to another right now, as it is great to work on many chars at a time as I dont loose motivation on any character at all. So when there is the Beta release, we both are probably surprised who happenes to be the first finished characters

on a different note, I started on a early concept of C18, and probably need your feedback tomorrow, as your female template rocked hard!

also see how a small movement in the arms could drastically improve the animation:

first:
now:

[Harlequin]

On a way different note:

I really think that this Mod could live up the LF2 scene again. Therefore I try hard to make progress. At some point when there is enough progress done we all could advertise it around on other forums (not just LF2 based ones obviously - but gaming forums, dragonball forums) so people will want to mod for LF2 again and talents come and join what we love on LF2. Showing some youtube videos then would definetly hype LF2 I hope.

[bashscrazy]

minor movements always help!

I learned that while making Vegito. My favourite animation for my Vegito character is the super saiyan

I mean look how impressive that is
The hair, earrings and clothes are moving so beautifully
(im so opposite of modest )


That elbow attack will look sexier with 17's hair swinging around. That's going to be the hardest part of cyborg 17 and 18. Their hair's aren't as static as the other characters.

[Marko]

I dont like krillin's second punch... it takes too long, you might fix that. also i find bit silly arms in walking frame cuze he looks like he's waving to us.

everything else is perfectly awesome keep up with posting.

[rhino]

Im soo lurking in here

I liked everything, except Krillin's run, make all the runs dbz style (open and sharp palm that swings back n forth thingy)

Combos and everything looks nice to me, just my opinion is that, whatever moves and stuff are done, just give it to coder for being done.. It will feel much more nice to you too

And yeah dude that vegito transformation is SICK..

If you manage to pull it through like that it will convince me.
On a related note: Once you have these rough animations on characters done you can already publish sheets that can be scripted into the game (polished/fully sprited/improved sheets can simply replace the old one). I've also drawn very crude pixel pen frames for my character first at some points to simply get the animation down and then script it in game, leaving graphical polish to be done later.
