[EXPANSION] Mega Man Powered Up [Release v1f]

[NemZ]

The intention is for v2a to be the full re texture using NemZ's textures

Can't wait to see how that works out.  That was the first set where I pretty much had do it all from scratch because I couldn't find a good map pic to go on.

The sprite offsets for the MM1 health/ammo could do with being raised up by one, since they look wierd with the very bottom of the sprite clipping into the ground.

I know this is a rather large bump, but it appears that this expansion did something to the Laser Buster. The Laser Buster's flashing is unable to be seen on the actual player sprite (the HUD is fine) when this expansion is loaded, so instead of players flashing green in 3rd person view, they stay with the default colours.

This is what I mean.

Ah crap, you're right.  Apparently I forgot to include

Code: [Select]

#DEFINE LASERCHARGE1 106
#DEFINE LASERCHARGE2 107in wcolors.  Ah well, v3b is going to require some small rewriting anyway so we'll probably pop out a v1f at that point.

Wow, I found another thing.

Attempting to add a custom bot WAD AFTER adding the Powered Up Expansion PK3 causes whatever bots added after it to be unusable.

[Messatsu]

Can you go into more detail?

[Geno]

Well, after I loaded the Powered Up expansion with the launcher, I added several other extra bots (also with the launcher).
When I went to the add bot list in Offline Skirmish, all the bots from the default game, the extra ones inserted BEFORE MMPU, and the MMPU ones appeared on the list, but NOT the ones I added after PU.
I was also unable to use the ADDBOT command to add them.

And after removing MMPU, the extra bots all reappeared.

I`m pretty sure this happens with ALL bots, but the ones I experienced it with were Rokko Chan, my Dalek bot, and geminibro`s Honey Woman.

Fascinating! How do you manage to get a stable internet connection down in the cave you live in?

Beed, look in here:

viewtopic.php?f=34&t=6152&start=10#p266408

Specifically, where Mendez starts talking about Flash Stopper.

Myroc, are there any plans to change the MM1 weapons for this mod somehow? I'm just wondering if it was ever considered, but I really wouldn't mind either way.

[Beed28]

Ah, I remember just quickly skimming through that post (I can't remember why), so I must have missed the Energy Balancer.

Reporting for cookies!!

-Wily castle nomber 2 has a "thing" in the skybox, you shold move the textures a bit, maybe reducing a bit the skybox can solve this.

-Also, I noticed some skyboxes are cuadrangular, ¿is that intended?

Anyways, congratulations!!! the new skyboxes make more apealing some levels, like wily castle 1 :3

[Messatsu]

Oh, on a related note: Two small changes I forgot to tell Myroc in the changelog

- Weapon energy cannot be picked up if you are full on your current weapon (unless you have the Energy Balancer)
- Gravity Hold and Wind Storm cause a special death animation for the player.

Also, the inner pits in Bomb Man's stage are still blue instead of using the skybox, which is now mostly black.
