Naija sprites

[Draiden]

Great work, Alphasoldier!

The zero suit looks very good on Naija; you know, most of the enemies and bosses from the classic Metroid series wouldn't look out of place in Aquaria at all: they're already in that same large, brain/jellyfish-ish like creature vein. Too bad we can't armor her up and equip Naija with a blaster (that would make life much easier). I also noticed that the little enclosed bubble-area to test the mod out in is decorated with some ruins and foreground/background effects quite nicely.

Also, there's no way to use these modifications in the main game itself, is there?

Not yet, but I may figure out a way to add them somehow in a later patch.


And yeah, that zero suit skin is nice.

[Alphasoldier]

Thanks y'all, I appreciate it.

And yeah, I know Metroid enemies would fit in this place very well, I'm hoping that when I ever get to make a mod and have more time that I can make a Metroid-y mod, mostly for instant action, gameplay and puzzles. So, without the exploring. With alot of the Metroid enemies and I even hope to make a Metroid boss, but I think that that is going too far. xD

Hah hah.

The way/s I see all these mods working:
Make a new topic for each mod and discuss it there, maybe link to it here so people can find it (like my 'mods list' topic). This would also make it easy to avoid if it would obviously offend (as most of this topic was actually discussing. WOW, what a side track. ) Like, if there was a separate topic called "Nude Naija sprites" then anyone who wants it can click, anyone who doesn't wont. Then there could be a link here to that topic so anyone can find it even if it goes a few pages back into the forum.

The other way is the current way its being done (with sprite mods atleast) and that is that all (sprite) mods are put here and discussed here. Which means if someone wants to avoid a certain (sprite) mod but still look at other mods they can't avoid reading about the undesired mods. (I'm not saying its turned out like that, I don't have a problem with whats been said here. But if someone went and discussed how turned on the nude mod made them then I might have a problem...)

So as long as this topic is moderated to remove 'adult-only' talk, there isn't a problem. But it might be easier if touchy topics have their own forum topics for discussion, where you can be as adult as you want.

And just to finnish: A Metroid mod would be sweet! Since this game caters to a similar audience to the metroid games I think it'd be really popular. (clarification: I've never played a metroid game, but I like the "Metroid-vania" style of games like Eternal Daughter, also partly by Derek Yu)

[Alphasoldier]

Well I'd love to move all this to it's own topic, But I just can't do it captain, I don't have the powerrr!

Anyway, I think making a topic about every SPRITE mod is a bit over the top, maybe a page with all the sprite mods listed, but not a topic for each sprite mod, it's just too much.

And about being offended by even READING that there may be offending material is a bit over my leaugue, sorry man, I'm not going to adjust myself that much, keep it there or don't have it at all, I'm kind of sick that -I- have to go through all the trouble while there are enough people who like these mods.

[IceD]

Yeah, I also think it's a good idea to listen all the sprite mods in one topic. It's because there would be to much mess when we would want to make a topic about each of them alone - they're basically only sprites so it would be good just to point them out.

And btw - I love the new Samus sprite! Good job on the textures Alpha, they look preety neat. And you told you won't make it! 

[Alphasoldier]

Thanks! And yeah, I think I WILL make a Sprite Mod topic, updated by me.
Once my Li mod is done and uploaded. =p

EDIT: It -IS- finished, but I just need to make finishing touches and zip it and upload it, is not gonna take long, I'll propably update this mod with the topic link as soon as it exists.

EDIT2:
There it goes.

[Hiro]

Lol, I didn't mean that you would have to change the way you speak (...type). Just I don't want to stumble across someone's story of their 'happy time'. XD

I think having them all in one topic is fine if that's kept.

P.S. Lol, not to nag or anything, but I just noticed that that link there doesn't have a large red banner. Heh heh heh inconsistancy FTW!

[Alphasoldier]

Why should it have a big red banner, it leads to another topic with plenty of big text.

And about that happy time thing, yeah I know I was wrong there, I already said so before I even said it.
And it's not like I described it in every little detail, it's a normal thing you know.

[Hiro]

Oh, it leads to another topic... I didn't click it to find out. 

And you just said described. Past tense? What I said I meant future tense. I so far havn't seen anything to turn me off....

[Alphasoldier]

I did say that I got turned on SOME thing. xD

[Hiro]

Um, sure. Lol, I must have missed it. Or maybe its somewhere I didn't read. Given that I do plenty of reading rather late at night I could have just glossed over it with droopy eye lids. 

So, now we all understand and can just keep everything civil. Its all about the modding here people.

Speaking of which, is there a fix for that thing where Naija's head wouldn't use the modified sprite?

[Alphasoldier]

I think removing the head bone from the naija.xml file would work.

Or, when looking into Li's xml file, there is a special part for the head, that could be tried.

No clue further, though. I'm gonna look into it when I get home.

[EntiteFred]

Actually, you can make a node which will replace naija's head.  That's what I did with my pirate mod.

However, I don't know any way to replace all head animation textures (blinking, etc) with those from a skin.

Alec was working on the override for this. I'm watinig for it, since emotions are essential for my mod character
