[Expansion] Rockman Strategy
« on: January 08, 2012, 09:07:58 PM »
Well Star Dood brought it up in my skin topic and I can't say I didn't think about it. So I'll give it a run, sadly I'm not a mapper or scripter but I can give idea's for the weapons and maps.

If you want to take a character the original picture is here -> http://baryltdf.deviantart.com/art/Request-Constellation-Droids-255003384, but be warned they are 2 pixels per square, so cut there size in half and you are good to go.
I've taken the extra step and decreased the size and recolored them myself if you wish to use them.


Here is what we will need.
Skins:
(click to show/hide)

Maps:
(click to show/hide)

And for the fun part, the weapons, I have not played the game and I assume none of the weapons are all that special but here are some ideas I think could work for them. Just ideas which do not need to be the final results.
(click to show/hide)

Some other info.
Chapter Boss: The Wily Machine
Other possible ideas: We may wanna wait for the MM8 expansion to be finished before the final version of this for more textures and weapons (also since some 8 bosses show up in Strategy). A duel against Bass could be available at some point in the chapter.

Uh... gee. You actually did start one. I didn't expect this.

I'd take a skin, but Llama would yell at me about in a few months.
Good luck, anywho! Maybe I'll help later!

The maps? It will be pretty difficult to start maps without concepts-tileset.

Think of what we have and the map name. "Africa" would likely be a jungle map.
There are little screen shots of this game, there may be some shots of a few maps in the gallery section of mechanical maniacs.

Ok, yes, some stage pics seem to be in the everything else section http://themechanicalmaniacs.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=100
Thats all there is to work with, it wasn't an 8bit game.

Can you list it by RM stage instead of the name itself? It's confusing.

Sorry about that. They are listed in the original post but here they are.

Ok, sorry for double post but I noticed there is no Beat skin out (the Kalinka one uses him but thats it), so I'll do Beat personally.

Is Goldgamemaster still around? His Eddie's download is not available.

Unless I can't remember quite well, I think Joseph Collins made one.

Just checked his skin topic, none there. Though the Kalinka skin has beat with her, but its Gold's and also no longer available.

Wait, is this dead? If not, YESSSSS.

I would most certainly like to help with this. Those sprites you have in the first post are great.
If you'd like, you can use my Fan skin for this. I may be able to improve it if necessary.

Also, let me dig out my Luna and Apollo sprites...


There's Luna.


Apollo by Drei.

I have a Cancer sprite as well, but its not as good as the one in the first post, so it seems unnecessary.

I can try to make Apollo at some point, but if someone else wants to make him, be my guest.

You have no idea how long I've wanted this to be done. I would've started a project like this myself, but sadly, skinning is my only real skill. Hoping this thing gets somewhere!

Very good for them both so far. This project is kinda just in limbo atm. Way I see it it will be much better to do the maps after the MM8 expansion is done. So skins is manly what I'm looking for.

Though as of currently what the two of us have done is the only known progress on anything but given time I'm sure this will be touched upon sooner or later.

Sounds good. If anyone wants to do Luna, be my guest for the rotations and skinning, you may use my sprite. As for Apollo, I'll see if I have time to do him. He shouldn't be too difficult. If anyone wants to do Apollo, feel free to ask. I haven't skinned in a long time and I still have a lot to finish.

I'd like to see tileset done for this map pack specifically. If there is any tileset I can work it, then I would love to make maps for this expansion.

13/14 maps (Apollo and Luna are color swaps), thats a lot of tiles. With any luck someone will offer to try.

Shall I add this to my list?  When I finish the DOS games I've got someone on standby who wants something from the zero series, but after that I'm open.  Otherwise I'll just go back to working on things currently in my 'other' list.
