MM8BDM v4 Public Thread - TRAILER!

[Laggy Blazko]

Also ignore the software issue. That's software being software.

What issue?

[*Alice]

Random colored pixels at the edge of the ceiling, I assume.

[Russel]

If that is what's being referred to, then that is less of a software issue and more of a badly rendered texture in general - I see this on seams in Open GL all the time.

[Messatsu]

If I had to guess, it's Lightning Bolt + particles clipping through the ceiling in the second screenshot.  Stupid software.

[Dark Phil]

It looks better and better every screen shot. I know you can't reveal it yet, but I hope that if the King tank is the final boss, you only fight it once, not three times!

All of those textures look a lot different from the ones NemZ made.

Mr. X didn't like the textures NemZ did and did his own versions. Dynamo Man's textures was his final contribution to MM8BDM. Although he didn't make the map, Myroc made the layout itself.

And before anyone asks, yes the belt does work exactly like the stage.

Oh for- I thought we were still discussing this. If you want to change how the gimmick works, fine, but it'd be nice if you didn't go behind my back in the process.

I thought that was MM8SEA.

[Ivory]

MM8SEA wasn't even his last map, that was MM8DW1. Dynamo Man's Textures are the final contribution he did in any form before leaving.

Unrelated to the current map discuss, but I noticed when I played Wily Wars a long time ago, that Megaman 1 / Megaman 2 have weapons icons that weren't displayed in the original NES games. We might consider these icons being the most canon icons for MM1/MM2 weapons, right? Why not drawing a 8-bit version of them? Some weapons like Leaf Shield have way better-looking icons (the current one uses 4 microscopics leaves)
Also there's this page someone sent me, which seems to have hidden informations about Wily Wars, like for instance Robot Masters' weakness to other weapons (like Metal to Cut or Needle to Fire for some reasons--).
They also have some weapon icons I've personally never seen before, but they seem somewhat pretty good.

[Kapus]

I'm actually not sure why Wily Wars icons aren't used. I'd love to make some for v4a.

[JaxOf7]

Rejected long ago.
Don't know what happened to the thread.

There's also some remastered Mega Man games named "Rockman (1;2;3;4;5;6) Complete Works".

And this game has weapon icons for MM1 and MM2.Why not use them ?

[Messatsu]

You mean these icons?  Yea, problem is most icons aren't really that much different than what's in the game now.  Other icons aren't terribly helpful.  A lightning bolt for Thunder Beam isn't terribly indicative on the weapon since there are multiple electric weapons in the game.  Others like Air Shooter look quite a bit like Tornado Hold (different colors).  I think most icons are okay, with maybe 1 or 2 needing an upgrade.

[Kapus]

Was fun.
