We already said that was a joke trailer.
The title saying
yea you should definitely change that
Thank you, not sure why sora posted that title in the first place
I am actually going to record the gameplay trailer once I can get everything ready. Have a run-through plan of it!(may change before release of trailer):
Actually side b's are removed. The op will need to be cleaned up in the near future.
Actually, Sora, I'll just attempt clean up the OP myself and send the draft to you.
Holy ****, your picture. . .
Getting screenshots aren't easy. We have to make sure stuff looks presentable.

That has NOTHING to do with anything. He didn't say the mod is finished or anything, he just said how easy it is to get previews. Which, yes, it is super easy.
Actually, I am making one right now as a side project. It's on my signature.
I know it's as easy as 1-2-3, but what I meant to say was that we have so much work on our hands, we just can't find the time to put them up.
We can already take screenshots by ourselves. The problem is setting up everything to look nice. We don't want to show something unworthy. Similar to a school project. You work and work on it until it is presentable. That's why we spit out a good chunk of info I believe 2-3 pages back. Some of that stuff is already taken away from the build. Just showing this is a wip. We even showed those emotes/stage select icons to buy us some more time.

are saying, i must remind those of us who support the team that first and foremost this project is in it's very early stages.
I'm liking this guy even more, cause all of this is pretty much true.Wow! It's nice to see things getting done for this project again. I've noticed that there's been some tension between the supporters and developers recently. While i am inclined to agree with what users such as @
Secondly i find that the team is doing a very good job at staying organized and trying to present themselves professionally even with their small numbers and lack of presentable material. Everything has to start somewhere and compared to Project M i'd say this team is having an easier time getting the ball rolling so kudos to them. I understand that you want play the latest version, but let's not forget that these things take time, especially in the earlier stages where absolutely everything has to get done. The best thing we can do to show our support is check in occasionally and see how things are going. If you don't like how somethings being done explain your concern. If you do like a development change or addition show your support. It's with the support of this community that this project can thrive and become potentially as big as PM.
To the team that is developing i have a few comments to make. Firstly again i'm glad to see an update. I haven't been around this thread since about page 4 or 5 so i've been out of the loop for awhile. Secondly the reason i'm back in the loop is because of the teaser. I feel good and bad about this. The good thing about it is as someone who's been waiting for some news of this project for months now, i've finally seen something which gives me hope. Also as a relatively small team and since your just starting out, i don't think it did much harm. In fact i want to be able to watch the Reality64 3.5 hype trailer and laugh thinking that it all started out as that little sneak peek. I thought it was cute for something that the public demanded. The bad part about it is, it was unprofessional which relative to the rest of your updates is shocking. You haven't made too many of them but when you have they are presented pretty well.
The other thing is that i can't be sure whether he was acting on behalf of the team or just by himself due to pressure from some of us. Whatever it is, I think for future reference, there shan't be any updating or leaking unless every team member is made aware and gives consent. You have a relatively small team so it shouldn't be too difficult to ask all the team members before doing an official update. Now i'm not asking for an update every day, week or month, but when there is an official piece of info you want to put on the OP, make sure the whole team is aware. That way you're all held responsible for what was posted whether good or bad. Now if you feel you have enough information to provide a steady flow of updates for awhile, do a weekly or biweekly blogpost or something of that sort. If different members of the team are achieving in their own area, update the OP as a team.
What i'm trying to say is you all need to act as a team and as a unit which means you can't be confused and base your decision based off of what x or y says. As far as i know you're modeling your developing after the pmbr which means everyone is equal. If i ask one member something, i should get the same answer from the others across the board or something that matches the original answer.
I know that was a lot to read but finally i've got a suggestion for the project itself. A while back i posted my opinion on development and me feeling that art was the only thing getting done. Well if you do have someone in charge of the art field for the project i've got something you may want to consider using when moving forward. Located here is a texture pack done by AlGeorgeRomo of kc-mm brawl vault. His work is getting fairly popular and i must say myself that these look stunning. Now i'm not going to suggest including them officially in the next build, but when you get the basic mechanics for all the characters down it might be in your interest to reach out to him and see if he wouldn't mind joining the team and remastering all the brawl characters with a 64 flavor. Including these as the official alts for all the characters would be a good move imo.
That was alot to read i know. Sorry for the lengthiness but i can see this project has the potential to become great and i just wanted to express a couple of my concerns and opinions. Good luck team and i'm looking forward to your official trailer.
Well, we're trying to keep the movesets as close to 64 as possible. I like your examples, but adding Falcon's Nair and Fair from Melee/Brawl, would just make him feel more like in Melee/Brawl, than in Smash 64, IMO.
With balancing, I believe the direction is to buff most characters to the point of being at the very least level with say, 64 Pikachu, etc. as well as making a few tweaks to the higher tiers.
I agree with what you said completely, except for the overall quality of AlGeorgeRomo's work, but that's a subjective(opinion-based) thing about art. The style does indeed work somewhat for introducing details to 64 character designs of Brawl characters, but it doesn't really fit what he was trying to do much at all(Trying to replicate a Melee art style for Brawl characters). The over-saturated 64 alternates didn't really help his case either. I just have an issue with the saturation, and how the colors seem to blend together most of the time. For example, we have his "Melee Bowser" :Wow! It's nice to see things getting done for this project again. I've noticed that there's been some tension between the supporters and developers recently.

I see what your saying and i must say I'm inclined to agree partially. While his melee remastered characters are very over-saturated, i'd say to consider that the brawl environment is "supposedly" made with a more "realistic" flavor than the melee environment. When i look at brawl, i see that the attention to detail in it's stages matches the attention to detail in it's characters which makes them blend more. With melee i find that the characters are slightly more detailed and saturated than the stages which makes them pop more against the stage background. With all retexturing projects I've encountered, in some way or another they find a way to make the characters stand out more against the background. Such is what i think he's doing here with his melee remastering project. He isn't necessarily trying to replicate melee 1 to 1 but rather, reemphasize focus back on the character as opposed to leaving the focus on the blend of character and stage as it was in brawl. That's just my opinion however which is why we see it differently. If perhaps he was trying to remake 1 to 1 Bowser than i might have to agree with you.I agree with what you said completely, except for the overall quality of AlGeorgeRomo's work, but that's a subjective(opinion-based) thing about art. The style does indeed work somewhat for introducing details to 64 character designs of Brawl characters, but it doesn't really fit what he was trying to do much at all(Trying to replicate a Melee art style for Brawl characters). The over-saturated 64 alternates didn't really help his case either. I just have an issue with the saturation, and how the colors seem to blend together most of the time. For example, we have his "Melee Bowser" :
And then we have the real thing:
Can you tell the difference? With the exception of the ripped eye texture, the retexture of Brawl Bowser lacks any sort of detail from Melee Bowser.
Anyways, sorry about the long post. Thanks for reading.
