MM8BDM Discussion / Is there a version for GZDoom?

« on: September 18, 2020, 09:42:35 PM »

After playing megaman 8 bit deathmatch for a while and finding out that GZDoom is able to apply non-western characters (i.e. Arab, cyrillic, hiragana, katakana and Kanji), is it possible to make a GZDoom edition for Megaman 8 Bit Deathmatch?
If so, how?
If not, why?

If so, what does that mean for mods of megaman 8 bit deathmatch (goes off-topic, but could be relevant to this topic (otherwise another thread in the projects & creative or help & editing should be made)?

Update: since Zandronum also is open source, can a new version be made that allows users in multiplayer to use non-western characters (unicode)?

MM8BDM Discussion / What happens after releases of versions 6 and 7 and some Qs re: megaman X?

Hey guys,

MM8BDM is developing well it seems. From seeing the ending of MM8BDM V5 whereby a fight against robofluenza comes and predictably in the chapter after the introduction of gears, much of the development has been going forward. After megaman 11, should the next chapter be: megaman 12? Lets find out, statements about the megaman 12 chapter for MM8BDM are speculations for now on, but we can predict some stuff.

Just like normal megaman games, megaman 12 will have 8 Robot Masters. After defeating three, you fight bass. And after stage 3 you also fight bass according to fantendo. It will be on four difficulties:
Newcomer, veteran, seasoned and nightmare. On nightmare mode, there will be significant differences and I predict that developers of MM8BDM can use features coming from that difficulty to the game.

Speaking of the final boss for this chapter, I'm sure it will be Zero. You likely fight him with protoman, as Zero nearly managed to defeat megaman.

The release date of this game is planned in beginning november 2023.

What are your thoughts on chapter 12? Will Zero become a hard boss? And is it better to wait for the traditional megaman franchise to end and then make chapters based on these games or should an extension be developed that adds 8 chapters of megaman X (Zero is allied in X series, enemy in traditional series as he's created by dr. Wily)?
