MM8BDM v3a Released!

[OrangeMario]

Just a quick fyi for some of you, We based the Duo's theme off of the youtube video below because (I think) we felt that the origonal Duo's Theme in MM8 was not fitting enough for the events taking place in game.

So basically you based it off his battle theme instead.

Wait, what do you mean his "Battle theme"?
It was based off of this theme IMMADUO did (unless im completly missing somthing). please explain.

[Korby]

Actually, it's based on the remix U-GEN did.

There was 2 versions of Duo's theme, the normal which played when he was kicking giant robot ass and the battle version which played during the boss battle with him moments beforehand which was more fitting for a boss theme then the normal version, which that remix sounds more close to.

You probably should realize that MM8's music is a soundfont based soundtrack.

As I checked on one of those sound/music viewers for the PS1. There's a handful of tracks that shows its indeed following that way.

There's also some unused sounds in the disk itself.


And the cutscenes techinally use one huge mainstream sound [similar to like on how the wav method was] and bunch of images to make the animation. Before than, wavs were kinda the mp3s in the old days of game making and the ogg method hadn't happened yet.

The reason the music was different was because it wasn't using its soundfont stuff and it lead to possibilities for different sounding.

Duo's Battle theme simply didn't work in 8-bit.  Plus, like almost all of the MM8 original soundtrack, it was horribly dull.

[HertzDevil]

TENVMUS is the only good music serious

[Donutyoshi]

That dullness part may just only be an opinion really. I find the MM8 OST worth listening to and favorable.

I think the Oilman skin should be changed so the scarf covers his mouth like in the Archie Comics, otherwise I fear the pink lips could offend some sensitive people.

Plus he would look more menacing that way.

Not to mention one of his lines in Dr. Light's lab when the weather is snowy. Gah. On the other hand, I think his line where he complains about Frost Man would definitly fit there better.

I agree with this. He would look much better with a scarf, if you ask me.

[GameAndWatcher]

He already has his scarf, Accel.  Beed's saying that the Scarf's location should be changed.

[Accel]

Really? I haven't noticed it on the skin. I guess I should change what I was saying, to that it should be moved. It'd be a bit more noticeable that way.

EDIT: Just took a look, and wow... that is seriously easy to miss. It'd still look better covering his mouth.

[Kapus]

It could probably work as an alternate skin, like Mega Man and Mega-Hair.

[GameAndWatcher]

And also I think MM10 Slashman should be the main skin for the bot rather than RM7FC's, as it is Capcom's official sprites, but I can live with the current one, as it's not bad at all.[/slowpoke]

[Beed28]

I agree with Slash Man's bot using the other skin. Also are we ever getting bots that use these alt skins at all?

[GameAndWatcher]

Aside from outside mods?
