Unofficial Project M Ridley - CLASSIC RIDLEY BETA RELEASED! 31/10/16

[Wolley2xjd]

Last I read, PM doesn't use CBliss

"Download cBliss tool (works with 3.5 too) and then configure Pit's costumes so there would be 10 of them and configure their order so they would be like this:
FitPit00, FitPit01, FitPit02, FitPit03, FitPit04, FitPit05, FitPit06, FitPit07, FitPit08, FitPit09."

That's what it said.

I never said that CBliss wouldn't work. I'm just saying that I've heard that P:M doesn't USE CBliss.

[TheBrainJem]

do you delete all of pits files in his folder or do you keep them when you put Ridley's in it?

 

[Cpt.]

Ridley vs. Charizard is too cool

Anyone? Please..............

 

[AuraShaman]

Must be a nightmare to reply to all these, ain't it, Bagan?

 

[Cpt.]

"I'M TELLING YOU ZARD, WE NEED TO GO THIS WAY IF WE WANT TO GET TO THE PARTY!"

Must be a party for creatures that wish they were dragons.

Anyone? Please..............

Don't need to delete them, just drag them in and hit replace when it pops up.

 

[drogoth232]

Anyone? Please..............

You replace all of Pit's files

 

[ggmonx]

Anyone? Please..............

You just copy the files from the ridley rar and paste them into pits folder replacing the conflicted files if necessary

It was for the sm4sh sign-up. Ridley went the wrong way

I thought Bagan said not to replace them.

 

[ggmonx]

I thought Bagan said not to replace them.

I think he meant don't replace the whole folder with the ridley ones

 

[TheBrainJem]

Okay tha-

I thought Bagan said not to replace them.

WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?!

 

[WEK-Sector Pirate]

[TheBrainJem]

so I moved the Ridley files into pit's files, now a pop up came saying there are files that are the same. Do I relplace those with the Ridley ones or keep both?

 

[Hidan]

You replace those files, as the game will crash if you have both of Pit's fighter data and the new Ridley data you're adding. So when you get the notification, click yes to replace, but only do that. Do not delete files in the folder and do not just place the folder into the fighters section.

 

[Puppyfaic]

So, Ridley crashes for me on the Results screen. Everything else works fine, he plays perfectly and all his sounds and costumes work. But the Results screen always crashes.

 

[Nezha the Scout]

Im gonna watch this thread now. I have open rimlighting spots if you wish for me to rimlight your model.

 

[TheBrainJem]

Okay, last thing I need help with.

Import folders Info, Menu, Sound and SFX into projectm\pf.

Do I just drop these into the pf folder, or do I put them i to the individual menu, sound and SFX folders in the pf folder??

 

[ggmonx]

How did Bagan edit the moveset?

 

[Friesnchip]

I apologize for my scattered thought process, I have a bit of cold making it difficult to layout my opinions unsegmented due to medication slightly clouding my mind. Regardless, here are some of my initial thoughts:

Man, fighting a competent Snake is practically impossible with Ridley without camping the edge (but that was not unexpected, I suppose). Speaking of which, I'm really not fond of the movement options the up special has while hanging off the ledge, it is reminiscent of the 'woop woop' stall of 3.02 Mewtwo, with trickier motion. Granted, you lose ledge invincibility after 5 grabs now, but it is still a regrettable feature in my opinion.

Trying this mod out with friends this morning has led to a bit controversy over the pogo tail down air. My more skilled friends admittedly found it mildly annoying - but avoidable - except when used after a grounded side special leading to an early off stage death, although that may just happen anyway due to how strong the side special is, but the causal Smash players couldn't escape out of it (and loved spamming it along with the aerial down special). It seems the amount of recoil given to a successful or blocked hit makes it overly useful; maybe reducing the gained elevation afterwards would prevent further set-ups for the attack? Also, the ability to attack so effectively through platforms and even the stage itself (especially near edges) is a bit much.

I'm also in congruence with BLACKSasquatch; reducing aerial mobility just a bit might be something to experiment upon. Currently Ridley can move about very much like Puff, easily gimping characters like Fox, Falco, Bowser, Falcon, Ness, Ganon, Olimar... basically anyone with poor/tether only recoveries once off-stage.

In terms of aesthetics, I've noticed Ridley's shadow is a generic circular blob. Is that planned to change eventually? On a similar note of presentation, the down taunt scream is just too loud. I've seen your posts justifying it in other threads, and I understand your reasoning, but it just doesn't work. It seems out of place and demonstrates poor sound design when compared to the rest of the P:M environment. This is also a very minor issue, but when teetering over an edge, Ridley's animation looks a bit rushed. Maybe add a few frames to slow it down and add a bit of a flow to an otherwise abrupt looping point?

Anyway, despite my complaints (others have voiced much of what I would said myself, and you seem to be working on multiple fixes as we speak) I do have a positive outlook on the character for future patches. With that in mind, I know you mentioned releasing the desaturated textures sometime today - does that include the despiked model as well or is that not ready for release as of yet?

please...................halp mii..............

 

[ggmonx]

please...................halp mii..............

for the sfx folder copy the file and past it into the sfx folder in the project m sfx folder

 

[Hidan]

In the Ridley folder you downloaded you have seven different folders correct? You take the files from inside those folders and put them into the identically named folders in the project m files. If it asks you to replace the files, do it. (You do this for everything besides what's inside the stock and CSP folders, as the Common 5 which Bagan uploaded covers that)

 

[TheBrainJem]

done......
and the menu and sound folders?

okay, thanks everyone! (^_^)

 

[Cpt.]

WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?!

Pink Guy: "Frukanu b0ss! Ridley! He too str0ng!!!! GAAAAAA!!!!!"

Ridley: "Not even Lord ChinChin can save you now!"

But on a serious note, Ridley's side B knocks people off screen at 0 on FD with poor DI, maybe a little too much knock back...

 

[TheBrainJem]

Wait, what about the CPS folder and the Stock folder?

 

[Insanity's Bane]

Currently Ridley can move about very much like Puff, easily gimping characters like Fox, Falco, Bowser, Falcon, Ness, Ganon, Olimar... basically anyone with poor/tether only recoveries once off-stage.?

This. So much this. I know Ridley is a dragon so his air mobility has to be fantastic (logically), but it's a little too good. It also just feels off, as Ridley is at best a middle weight, so his ability to zigzag in the air like Jiggs does is very distracting. I think it's okay for him to be a floaty, but to the extent as Jigglypuff.

Also, I'm questioning the addition of the glide. Ridley can already recover really well with his multiple jumps and his up-B (albeit if it's a little tricky) and with good enough DI, you can survived a strong hit and glide back to safety to boot. Seems a little much. Also, I'd personally consider changing the up-B to something more original than just Firebrand's Bon Voyage, but as is I'm okay with it. Doesn't seem game-breaking.

As far as technical difficulties go, the Firebrand alt makes the Results Screen go black and just freeze my game entirely, even though I added the RSBE01 on the OP.

Other than that, I am very much looking forward to future updates to this mod. It has great promise and I have a lot of fun with it. Overall, aside from the above gripes, I think it's fairly balanced and with time and your dedication I'm certain Ridley can only get better from here on out.

i followed everything on the front page, but the announcer still says pit when choosing ridley. how do i fix this?

 

[Hidan]

If you downloaded the Common 5 from the link Bagan posted in the thread earlier then you don't need to place those files anywhere, since you'd need Brawlbox to do it originally.

There's currently no 'fix' because there are no Ridley announcer sound clips. I'm sure in future announcer clips will be made but for the time being there aren't any.

 

[Hidan]

Double post

okay, I did, so don't need to put stock either?

 

[Hidan]

Yes you're correct, this applies to both Stock and CSP. You should be good to go.
