Falco feels different, but good. There's a certain stickiness that is actually advantageous to me, as it allows me to exert more preciseness and speed. I can't believe it, I think this is better than melee. All that's left is LD, it'll be perfect then.

 

[Akuma2120]

I have to say, one thing that pisses me off is that if I dash right, but hit the C-stick even the slightest bit left my character turns around to do a dash attack, it happens so often because I always dash and tap down on the control-stick to do a dash attack, was it really like this in melee?

 

[Ulevo]

If I had to choose between Brawl DI being fixed and landing detection being fixed, I'd take the Brawl DI myself. Characters still move away too easily.

No it wasn't. This is a bug, and it's been reported on www.smashmods.com

 

[Ecks]

I just tried pm using 10 frames of buffer...So I won't be doing that again.

How does pm feel on wifi anyway?

 

[ManEg]

Yeah, but I was talking about perfection movement-wise

 

[Machiavelli.CF]

Im assuming sonic isnt supposed to airdodge after up B right?

 

[MonkUnit]

You need to do upB -> aerial -> Airdodge.

 

[Zef]

I might just make a mini combo video right now...

i have so much footage i dont wanna upload every single match lmao

 

[o-Serin-o]

No unrestricted camera? I am disappoint again ;____;

 

[Revven]

No it wasn't. This is a bug, and it's been reported on www.smashmods.com

You're hitting the c-stick at an angle instead of straight down. That's why you're only getting it going to the right. It's not specific to IDAing, but rather c-sticking dash attack during a DD and the slight angle on the c-stick press causes you to both pivot and do the DA.

Dunno if you saw that on smashmods.

Turns out my copy of Brawl, which I thought I left in my brother's dorm room, has disappeared.

Fffffff**** I want to play this game so bad!

 

[Zef]

why

WHY IS LUCAS SO BAD WHY

 

[Revven]

Dunno if you all care but there is another live stream: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/melee-smash

 

[tera twin]

sorry if i'm being oblivious but what's that thing in PM where if you hold the joystick towards the ledge with sheik but still facing away, she kind of stays there. is there a name for it and do other characters have the same ability?

i'm asking because i was playing online and accidentally did that and got surprised and died haha

Just grind through it.

So much **** footage. You'll be regarded as a king. Also, Lucas is terrible. Confirming. <3

 

[UltyBomber77]

LOL I love it when the announcer in the wiimote says "failure!" But, since I use a Wiimote+Nunchuck, I feel a bit instulted as well.

Btw I'm having trouble double-jumping with tap-jump on the Wiichuck. :/ I have to push the joystick up to the limit compared to gently moving it up a little like I usually do. Sorry if this doesn't make any sense, I'm not very good at explaining things like this

 

[Machiavelli.CF]

yeah, I was going to report that as a glitch unless it was confirmed to be ok.

 

[JediKnightTemplar]

My only complaint is the lack of an unlimited stage camera in the gct. Will placing it affect the Melee camera code, or will it not matter? Also, big props to the team. My little brother is a little pissed since he loves Brawl Marth, but he found P:M Zelda so fun he quickly forgot. Awesome job on the demo, couldn't be happier with it. Also, what's with the complaints over Lucas? The new B is a bit of a gimmick but I still greatly prefer him to the Lucas in other mods.

Yes she can still wall cling but unlike in Brawl you can let go of the stick and she will stop doing it.

The sensitivity for tap jumping was fine tuned so it wasn't as extremely sensitive as it used to be (messing with some people's abilities to up tilt consistently... for instance). It is stated on the site under general changes.

JediKnightTemplar: You won't have an easy time adding it back in if you try, just sayin.

 

[ManEg]

The online installer ask you if you want team colors and other thing I cant remember; what are these things? Are they in the zip files as well?

 

[OmegaMuffin]

I just want to say that this is an amazing mod. Probably the best, and it's only the demo.

I have but one problem. I'm using Riivolution and for some reason the game freezes randomly when I'm choosing a stage. I probably shouldn't be posting this here >_> but idk where the support thread is and I'm too hyped to go search for it lol. Maybe I'm doin somethin wrong?

It's a little too unresponisive imo. When I used a classic controller or GC, i didn't have any problems with joystick sensitivity Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me...

 

[hotdogturtle]

Any stage that doesn't have a .pac is unchanged right? (I know they should be but I don't know if they have codes to modify things like that)

I need to add my Smashville texture to my game.

 

[Evilagram]

Very awesome job, still a bit off from melee mostly due to landing detection. You ought to have more of the fixed up versions of stages in that zip, like F Zero and pirate ship.

Also, jiggly's down gravity is too strong, makes recoveries really hard, and limits a lot of her aerials.

 

[Stevo]

alright so this will mostly get missed with how popular this thread is right now but...

First Impressions from a melee veteran

-Landing Detection is not as bad as I thought it would be, I got 75% used to it in half and hour. Will be hard to delete like 10 years of muscle memory though! (this still might get fixed, however)
-Wavedash out of shield is TERRIBLE, this annoyed me much more than landing detection. (I love WD OoS)
-All attacks, even say, up smash, can be ledge cancelled it seems under some circumstances (I think when you hit someone)
-DI potency doesnt seem to annoy me as much as I thought it would
-All the characters included in the demo play smoothly and are enjoyable
-The game overall is looking and feeling awesome


Great job!

 

[DarkChris126]

uhhh i need some help with my project m, see i downloaded the hackless zip file and when i try to play online, everything is fine till the waiting room, that is when it says my friend is brawling and i am brawling non-stop, then it says connection lost, and my wii freezes but silently, plz tell me how to fix.

 

[GP&B]

The online installer ask you if you want team colors and other thing I cant remember; what are these things? Are they in the zip files as well?

Characters like Sonic, Pokemon Trainer, and Lucario have very vague team colors. Installing those will give you more distinguished red and green Sonic textures.

It's Melee gravity, we're not changing it.

 

[MasterRaichu]

The demo is great guys! I played around with it for about an hour or so myself, and I'll be playing with friends later in the week. From just messing around, I think the game plays really well!

Let me know if you guys want some help hosting mirrors for Project:M, friends of mine and I lease a dedicated server. We'd be happy to host you guys.

 

[The_Guide]

I have a minor complaint about footstooling; since u-taunt doesn't really do anything in the air, it seems like one could just mash it to get the footstool without worrying about timing. I don't know if the team has put an error window, since I don't have a friend test it with. If y'all haven't, it might be something to consider, if it is possible code-wise.

 

[Dragoon Fighter]

Why on earth is Zelda and Mario not up on the project m website?

 

[Revven]

Why on earth is Zelda and Mario not up on the project m website?

Hmm...... maybe it's because the whole dev team yesterday and today have been pleasing the public with the demo?

 

[Dragoon Fighter]

I guess I see where you are coming, but from my point of view it just seems to me as silly to not have them on the website when they are on the demo.

 

[Rhubarbo]

I managed to toy around with the demo for quite some time today! I found someone else to play with online, and we were extremely lucky to enjoy 10 or so lag free matches. Gameplay wise, I couldn't be any happier! Character wise however, I do have one major complaint. What the heck is wrong with Lucas?

Lucas' only viable aerial is his nair, his smash attacks are far too predictable, and his new neutral special takes far too long to charge. Much more work needs to be done on Lucas you guys!

 

[User33]

How will character PSAs work in Project M? Obviously they won't be balanced around the rest of the cast, but will they still work somewhat normally?

 

[Kati]

Loving the demo, so I am merely curious when I ask this:

1) is Falco's reflector supposed to be able to kill? the knockback gets pretty crazy for such a fast move.

2) is there a chance that Zelda won't go into special fall after using din's fire in later versions?

Everything else is super snazzy.

Lucas Back Air and forward air are good, havnt even tried his up air much. His smashes can come in use edgeguarding and such

basically, I mostly disagree.

Maybe some fine tuning, but not much.

 

[crush]

I got a replay of the marth glitch where he slides halfway across the stage after using up b. ill probably post the video soon on my yt account

 

[Zef]

holy ****, this is gona take like 2 days...

15+ project m demo vids on the way..
