Mega Man 8-bit Deathmatch V5B - 22/05/17!

[Mendez]

Will this new block method be used for Plug man and all other maps with blocks? I think it'd be pretty cool if we can get invisible bridges into other maps, if that's the method you're using. I always feel less confident jumping onto actors when they're flat sprites, usually because it's really hard to tell if you'll land on them or not. Hopefully that can be resolved in the future when everyone inevitably moves into using OpenGL for their rendering mode.

Ah, I Thought it is a planned for 3.0 :P

It is. They're still not correct according to SickSadWorld.

Yes, and only two core maps use yoko blocks to my surprise.

Edit: Do you hear something...?

From my tests voxels work fine, I have tested with Blood voxels and they worked fine in both Software and OpenGL Mode .

[CutmanMike]

Interesting. Might have to give them another shot but I don't know we'll have time to get them in v5b.

Hey Yashichi Hunters, get ready for a fun update:

(And no they will not just be sitting there by the Laser Trident.)

Interesting. So I wonder how you'll tell players about their updated battle, like you did with Bass? Are they just going to pop by the Light Lab as well?
Maybe have some tea and some biscuits?

Because every core map has a Yashichi hidden within it for people to find (they do nothing but are easter eggs), this means there will now be decoy Yashichi's in maps.
Having met versions of things that are actual pick ups would not work out as well due to the fact that very little actors are more then props, and enemy actors are usually just for decoration.

Because v5b will use Zandronum 3.0, I decided to look at what has changed with the new Zandronum.

And among them I found:

(click to show/hide)

Added random state duration and A_SetTics.
ReactionTime added to DECORATE expressions.
Added CheckFont, GetCVarString, GetUserCVar, GetUserCVarString, IsTIDUsed, LineAttack, SetCVar, SetCVarString, SetUserCVar, SetUserCVarString, SpawnDecal, and UniqueTID.
A_RadiusThrust can use negative ''force'' values.
Added APROP_ScaleX/Y and APROP_Mass actor properties.
Added A_CheckFlag, A_FaceMaster, A_FaceTracer, A_RadiusGive, A_SetMass, A_SetScale, A_Warp and A_WolfAttack...
A_Light can use negative values to darken the scene.

SO MUCH MODDING HYPE

[CutmanMike]

Ironically a lot of those functions we already hacked our way in the game with janky ACS but still cool!

I'm pretty sure those are revamped Doc Robots.

I still wonder why they did updated the Museum from Mega Man & Bass, in my opnion, it was perfect in V4, the Toad Man section was cool, the "Ground Metal Bars" too, and, if I'm right, it was bigger than now, I liked V5, but I really prefer V4's robot museum, does anyone agree?

[CutmanMike]

I'm sure there's more reasons but here's some good ones: https://youtu.be/yuAq5jWomHU?t=547

Personally I find the MM7 museum textures clash pretty badly with the MM&B textures but beyond that I think it's dandy.
