Super Smash Brothers BOR (Name Not Final)

zero · Post by **zero** » Wed Aug 25, 2004 7:04 pm

Well, this will be my first project for beats of rage, and my first time doing 2d animation for a beat em up, (not as easy as i thought).

anyway what i've been working on is a zelda mod for beats of rage, i started a few hours ago, this is some images of link(remember its my first time).

if anyone would like to help out with this please let me know.

i meanly need someone that can help with making the charecters, backgrounds, wav files, and who can do touch up work on the ones i make, ie add better shading, and minor details, if ya would like to help with one or all of the above aim me and let me know.

that's pretty good zero!

personally i couldn't do jack shat!

if you can keep up this quality then this will be a worthy addition to the BOR mods!

I say it's a decent start. However, a kickboxing Link doesn't really fit his style. I suggest giving him a sword and replacing the punches with a sword slash.

yeah i agree with melancoly....wheres the sword as well as his shield......looks good though. im glad someone is finally doing a legend of zelda mod ive been waiting for this

but i dont quite remember link's tunics being such a bright green? any idea on what the other playable characters are going to be? multicolored links with different special weapons(bow n' arrow,boomarang and etc) or Zelda,Shiek,Zora Link,Goron Link,Fierce Deity Link or maybe Impa (not the old feeble impa for the nes zeldas but the one from OoT) . just some ideas to throw at ya. can't wait to see being able to beat up some moblins beats of rage style hehe

Nope, it was Ralf from kof (i think).

Yeah i was planing on doing that, the link your looking at atm will most likely change a lot before i release the demo.

Thanks

Yeah thats something else that i will fix before the demo release.

for the 4 main playable characters, i was thinking of having Link, Zelda, 3rd and 4th not knowing at this time, i dont even have a name or story to put to it yet

, but i might use some of the characters you said as the 3rd and 4th playables.
anyone have anything else they would like to see added to this?.

Well, i was doing some thinking, and i thought why should i spend all that time drawing link when smash brothers has a perfectly good link, so will ripping the animations from it for my new link, i started thinking again, and what i thought of was that i could make a beats of rage mod much faster if i used all the charecters from super smash brothers, but then it couldn't be a zelda game, and so now its going to be a super smash brothers game (dont have a name for it yet).
but this is the way the story is, you play as link, mario, samus and fox, the rest of the characters from it will be bosses, and then the will be clones of ie mario and link etc, and other caracters from the game too, cos they have been cloned by bowser, and he has also turned the other charctors evil with his new mind controll thingy, his plan to controll all the nintendo stars, and make an army out of them by cloning them.
Ok the story might not sound very good, but if anyone else can come up with something to go along with this game would be nice.
now heres some gifs of link.

let me know what you think.

im having a problem, i cant test out my character in beats of rage, cos i cant make a .pak file thanks to windows xp

, is the a work around this?.

ninja · Post by **ninja** » Thu Aug 26, 2004 8:27 pm

Hmmm, you can test it by using the BOR.EXE that comes with the edit pack, but im not sure how it will run under xp. I have win2k and installed VDMSound so i would have sound support in the "win-dos" that comes with NT based os's. You could always grab a 98 boot disk and boot to that and load drivers for your sound card and test that way, or if you have a 2nd pc, just drop 98 on it and do your testing on there.

I can play beats og rage on my xbox, but i cant make a pak file for my mod, so i cant test out my mod, is the another program that can make pak files for BOR?.

Try getting in touch with vicviper74 or kungpow12345. They know their way around these things, and I'm pretty sure they're both using XP.

As far as a tentative name goes - how about "Ocarina of Rage"? Or possibly "Rage From The Past"?

Keep up the good work. Please don't get discouraged and quit. This has the potential to be a fantastic mod, and I really look forward to seeing it.

I have Windows XP and you need install the program VDMSound.
Then run the BOR Packer with this program. No more errors.

See ya.

where can i get VDMSound program from?.

ok, seems like i just found out that i can test my mods out on my pc without making a pak file (i'll still need to get a program that can make pak files so i can get my mods to work on my dc and xbox), but now i've run into another big problem, i keep getting "Unable to load file 'data\chars\link\walk1.gif (may be out of memory).
anyone know what might be going on here?.

djray · Post by **djray** » Fri Aug 27, 2004 8:04 pm

Hmmm, whever this happens to me it usually has to do with the character .txt, take a look around it and try to find a mistake somewhere.

It means that the program can find the frame walk1.gif of link animation.
Maybe you have a different name in the text that the one you have in the link's folder. Make sure that you have the animation walk1.gif in the link's folder.

See ya.
