Project: M Smash Boards Migration And You

[hamyojo]

Smashmods is a terribly made website, this is true (I didn't make it). Once you're actually ON THE FORUMS, though, you shouldn't be missing the old forums very easily unless you just refuse to scroll donwn.

Yup, I concur~

 

[MaxThunder]

if it's possible, the project m section could be where it is now but have several subforums structured roughly the same way they were on smashmods...

 

[Mr.Jackpot]

Dude. You read my post totally out of context. I was talking about having a P:M workshop seperate to vBrawl.

Most things that make this a totally different game are in the code set which we can't touch.
We edit the HUD which is similar If not the same and could be used in vBrawl. SSS can be used in vBrawl. Characters don't have edited bones so they can be used in vBrawl.
The stages are the only thing that we mess with that are exclusive to P:M. All their changed collisions and what not.

There's no custom SSS, I think you're thinking of CSS, which can't be used in vBrawl because it only contains Project M characters. The HUD is made with all Project M BP's, you'll have to manually create your own BP's of the old vBrawl colors and switch them out if you want to use it with vBrawl. The custom gameplay affecting stages in the PM workshop are designed with PM competitive play in mind. I see Project M tailored PSA's coming after the first release with the full roster. Project M and Brawl have some cross-compatibility, but are very different games and should be treated as such.

No new Stage Select Screen? You make me laugh.
But otherwise I suppose you're right.
Though I wasn't considering BPs. Who posts that PAC anyway? Except maybe in the case I'm about to mention...
I was thinking icon placement and size.

Imagine smashmods as a filing cabinet. It wasn't the most organized, but it worked for our needs. Everyone is flustered because the people who own the cabinet decided to upgrade up, and dumped the entire cabinet on the floor. As it stands, all the papers and documents are scrambled together on the floor while the cabinet owners (who promised to fix it up) continue the upgrade. This wouldn't be a problem if people didn't need any of the documents currently on the floor. Thee end.

All I want back from smashmods is the PM Workshop. Most stages, characters, menus, and music hacks are effected by Project M's development, and if we combined that with the brawl hacking forums, they would have to adapt to us coming in, and they would have to deal with the [P:M] tagged hacks they can't use. PM is pretty different from Brawl hacking wise. Sure character textures usually work the same way, but everything else is pretty much separated.

Also, I'm glad a brawl mod got it's own forum section alongside the rest of the smash brothers games!

 

[shanus]

We are working on changes to include stuff and introduce more organization here. It's obviously a work-in-progress, so please be patient. However, we are very excited to finally have a section on SWF and are looking forward to hopefully even greater community involvement with the ease of one consolidated smash forum.

Thanks!

Man, I didn't realize we were swapping forums.... What a shame, I was about to post something I created in the P:M workshop.

Anyways, I think we should have a Project: M workshop thread. Everybody liked on the old thread, so why shouldn't we have it here? Even though vBrawl and P:M are somewhat similar, that didn't warrent a deletion from smash mods and a note asking us all to post in the "General Hacking" sub-forum in Smash Mods.

Plus, wouldn't different stages be enough for us to have a workshop anyways?

Also, now I know why everything was so quiet this last week. Seriously, never noticed the announcement that we were moving.

 

[standardtoaster]

This section does seem insanely clustered. I think the fact that everything says [General] has a lot to do with that.

People could just not tag them when posting a thread. I don't know why everyone keeps making them [General]. <.<

 

[GunBlaze]

First time here and everything seems so cluttered. I'll get used to it. I guess the only reason I'll be going back to Smash Mods is SD Remix.

 

[B.W.]

The only thing I'm really going to miss from SmashMods is the "view todays posts" button, and the fact that, as far as I can tell, you can't embed videos on SmashBoards which mostly sucks because the project I was working on made heavy use of embedding videos in the first post.

I love the fact that P:M is on SmashBoards though because we are no longer seperated between the two forums. There will be a lot more discussion and possibly even more players coming to P:M and that's always good news.

 

[Shun_one]

This...will take some getting used to. Glad for PM moving to Smashboards though.

Yeah just when i was getting used to smash mods. Back to lurking smash boards.

I definitely agree on that view today's posts link. That link was the best... so true about this getting more interested players though. And that's the positives that outweigh the negatives of this move.

Definitely need the individual character discussion sections again though. That was core in their developments.

 

[Little Nemo]

Go to top, press "quick links"
Drop box
Press "Today's posts." which is at the top.
A winner is you.
Dunno how it'd be on the full layout though. Stupid phone forcing me on the mobile layout.
EDIT: It's on the desktop layout as well.

Also there's already a section for character discussion. All but unreleased characters have their own subsection.

According to when I posted this, this is false.

Yay you're here!
I converted the OP of the HUD thread to SmashBoards btw, just don't have anywhere to post it yet.

They have them.

Wait so PM was being discussed here the entire time that we were using smashmods? Why didn't I ever hear about this before? And where is all the "discussion" that happened here while smashmods was up?

see the social thread? notice how it's 2k+ pages? That's where all the discussion was.

 

[Dubforce]

Oh wow. Thats intense. Why did people even bother having discussions in such a manner (meaning one thread will all that info must have been a big cluster eff) when the smashmods forums were there?

 

[#HBC | Joker]

I know a lot of the people here were also on smashmods at the same time.

I was only here because I frequent smashboards because this is just the forum I frequent. I play brawl and whatnot, and I got into following PM cuz it was here. I think that's what they're going for with the whole move.

 

[MaxThunder]

the social thread was the only PM thread on smashboards until now...

 

[Yurya]

The sooner we move the sooner it becomes normal.

I meant for just P:M related posts, not all of today's posts on SWF as a whole. It was awesome just having updates for the current/new threads regarding P:M but I suppose I could just subscribe to the forum...

They have them.

I see now, I was late. Wanted to start off with all the info from Smashmods so people can look up answers to answered questions, but I'll probably do that anyway in FAQs for some characters.

 

[Little Nemo]

Oh. Oops.

Pretty much this. I don't give a damn what the rest of the forum is up to, I only care about the posts regarding Project: M.

 

[TheDevicer]

I just hate the way the forum is set up. We desperately need to have correct sub-forums up. Threads get glanced over simply because of how many we've got going.

Hopefully we can fix it soon. Moderators aren't really set into place yet either.

Once everything is cleaned up and really going, it should be about as good as Smods was, and with a much larger userbase.

 

[MaxThunder]

you kinda should have figured that stuff out before you started making the switch, though...

At least the PMBR is consistantly inconsistant http://youtu.be/Aip2aIt0ROM?t=7m53s

 

[hotdogturtle]

I'm still waiting for that demo 1 patch. Only 1 more week!

 

[Little Nemo]

Why the Egoraptor link? xD
I was thinking the same. :/ Oh well.

If you didn't view it on your phone it'd lead to when he sayd "Did I just say that out loud!?"

 

[Vashimus]

Well, Hamyojo is not one to think things through.

GASP!

 

[Little Nemo]

I did not think to look for a time tag thing. Sorry.

 

[Mithost]

As soon as we get some sub-forums going, the forums will pretty much be back to normal.

 

[shanus]

i know you guys really want the forums back properly set-up, but please have patience. We are working on it

The Kirby icon makes this post passive aggressive.

 

[shanus]

haha unintended

 

[TheDevicer]

It's kay. Monk's and SB's avatars in Smashmods made everything they wrote look hostile. We've currently resolved input lag. And it's your damn fault it took so long.

Anyways, I can't wait to actually have some level of normalcy. The PM fan texture projects will likely navigate to KCMM as things stand.
