Bye Brawl, Hi there Smash4. Regular Streaming?!? Cap is Better than Iron Man

[drogoth232]

Yeah, I'm having internet connections for some reason. Just now too

Gonna restart my computer and try again.

Should be back up

 

[Draco_The]

Yup, working now.

 

[drogoth232]

Had to get off for reasons. I should be on later. If not, I'll just be uploading the videos of yesterday's stream and whatever I got done today.

 

[drogoth232]

Here's uploads of yesterday's stream:

Hey, LargeLeader/Drogoth/etc! What have you been up to other than studying and having a hard time sleeping?

I don't get it.

Oh, come on ;~;

[Draco_The]

Oh, I guess it's one of his textures?

 

[drogoth232]

It's on his dogtag. Very low res for obvious reasons, but it's visible.

 

[drogoth232]

Sorry about the lack of a stream today. Had to write up a lesson plan among many other things that take up time. Mostly it was my father who came down from Delaware to visit for the week+weekend. I'll definitely try to stream next week, unless I have something come up.

Wait... a lesson plan? Interesting. I'm definitely interested in your streams since you now have seemed to find that spark again... mostly.

Intern Teacher life is rough man. Waking up from 12pm and now have to get up at 5 am.
I have no idea what I'm going to be working on during the stream, so I'm gonna set up a RNG thing to determine what.

Well good luck either way then.

[drogoth232]

Remember on KJP's thread when I said optimizing Raiden from 60k down to something reasonable was impossible?

Spoiler: I LIED

 

[drogoth232]

Stream will start later than usual and/or be cancelled

Big House 5 hype

 

[drogoth232]

To make up for the fact I didn't stream today, I'm going to try and record stream sessions 1 and 2 and have them uploaded on Youtube.

Future stream related:

Spoiler

It's about 1/4th of the way done, but will be very close to done when I use the symmetry modifier and fix some UVs up. Wont' include a cape arm thing because there's no way to cleanly rig it without looking weird in some animations. I know people say "but who's gonna notice?" I am. I'm gonna notice.

Might be used in a future stream lesson. I don't expect many people to even use it because of its limited applications, so I might not use it at all.

I should have another stream video up sometime tomorrow (introduction to PSA coding) Probably during the night. I'll also try to stream on Friday as well. If not, I'll record more of me doing stuff (went from the intro coding video to 3).

 

[drogoth232]

What if they updated Roy's Melee Taunt?

Spoiler: maybe something like this would happen

Friday stream is cancelled at the moment because I have an exam coming up. If I stream, I'll be sure to post on here before starting.

 

[drogoth232]

Update on mercenary Roy

Spoiler

And something new I've been working on

Spoiler

and in game proof of concept to see of the filesize was too large or not.

Spoiler

 

[DrewSchwag]

Love the mercenary Roy

 

[drogoth232]

Waiting for someone to make UV adjustments to Roy's back, make texture edits, and then I'll release Roy along with (hopefully) bandana physics.

Isn't Mercenary Roy just Awakening Roy, but without his main colors?

Pretty much. But I'm going to be changing singer colors to match awakening Roy

 

[drogoth232]

oh hey, new blog post v: largeleader.blogspot.com

 

[drogoth232]

Yay, stuff I did for the PMDT app that didn't go anywhere because lolwe'regettingshutdownbye

I swear, I almost got accepted. I think. Maybe.

Spoiler

Spoiler

And stuff I did for fun. None of the below are finished.

Spoiler

The bottom two are the same-ish. I mostly worked on making sure the legs looked believable for a run animation. I'll fix the upper body in about a week or so.

Spoiler

Spoiler

 

[Draco_The]

In the first animation I think that you should try moving the feet a bit. Those movements are too sudden for the feet to stay glued to the floor.
The second animation is very nice and my favorite from that bunch, although it took me a while to realize that he was grabbing his knife lol
The pose she does in the speed booster animation seems kinda awkward to me. Maybe because I'm too used to seeing her with the arm canon behind. IDK.
And in the run animation the feet should already extend after leaving the ground (frame 48 in the second gif).

 

[drogoth232]

I don't think I directly animated frame 48, the actual work was done in the gif above it. All I did was set the tangents to auto so it looks smooth. I'll be doing more work on it in the coming weeks/months.

 

[drogoth232]

plus

have fun speculating.

I gotta say, that looks really fresh! Also I'm hyped for that Mercenary Roy of yours: I've gotten over not having PM Awakening Roy and for once I want to see a Roy that has a bit more "bulk" so-to-speak in PM.

(I'm almost glad(?) you didn't get accepted into the PMDT or we would not have you working on Lyndis)

I have Awakening PM Roy the Art Tuesday one

Thanks but no thanks. I wont touch it until it gets uploaded on the vault by it's original creators. Til then it's Mercenary Roy for me.

No reason to wait for mine unless you want the official version which arguably looks better. Plus textures look a bit off, which I kinda wanna work on. I'll probably custom make awakening roy some time in the future and have it optimized for Brawl. Idk.

I'm working on Lyn?

First: Eventually when BeX is compatible with PM 3.6 Official I want to collaborate with some one on making a custom build with it. I can probably start to learn the EX engine, but with how 11 grade is shaping up, not anytime soon... maybe over the summer?

Second: Maybe that or a very WIP Bayonetta. Or I must be smoking one of Big Boss' Cigars...

Ah I get it

11th grade was pretty rough for me. But it ended up easier when i look back at it.

Maybe I'll work on Lyn. Maybe I won't. We'll see what the future holds.

I just thought of something:
If for some reason using the leaked assets to finish any of the forbidden 4 (aka the characters in the dev build) may put the PMDT at risk again for any reason, you can always salvage the concept and start from scratch. You may even end up making a better model then what they came up with (though it's very high quality as it is). But as always, we have to wait for the dust to settle and work at our own pace. Plus the characters this time around will be more balanced as the intended global changes to the core cast have not happened yet in 3.6.
