To tie in with my recent fighter packs for mugen, I have decided to work on the other side to paintowns features the side scrolling beat em up section. What Jon Rafkind has given us with his game is a virtualy easy to use character editor an level creation tool. This is my first dive into game creation and theres been some trial an error moments as well as some '' oh I see '' moments, but my understanding of this is becoming better an bettter with everyday I spend with this.
So anyway I sat down and decided that I was gonna do a Resident Evil side scroller. I have alot of ideas that will work well in this mod, Ive even had a few other ideas for some future mods. I can understand why video games take an age to come out, it took me 3 days to put Hunks character together, thats riping the sprites an putting them into there move folders then converting them one by one to be transparent so the game doesnt show the coloured background behind the sprite, Im using three different computers all with different operating systems to compile this mod, only because they each have different applications I can use like photoshop an ultimate fighter factory. The sprite process is so long that I didnt get to sleep till 7am for 2 nights in a row because I wanted it working before I went to bed, once you get into doing this it becomes worthwhile to see the out come of everything you do...
Anyway heres a video of how far ive got so far,its nothing special at the moment just a test to make sure everything will an should work.....
Resident Evil paintown mod ( POC ) - YouTube
I will be adding things to levels like breakable objects an herbs instead of apples an cakes for power ups, there will also be a load of enemy to beat your way through, all classic resi bad guys,
I hope youve enjoy'd this sneak peek into my upcoming mod....
