Streak Thunderstorm Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Yeah, good news. I've been working with an old backup I had of the engine. It doesn't have MKIII or any of the helper stuff. Anyways, I fished through the objects and coding and found what corrupted my file. I deleted the mess and started working again. Lots of progress. Hopefully I'll get something done by SAGE. I WONT BE POSTING MUCH HERE AT THE MOMENT because well, the engine is rough as hell. I can post this though: This is Platinum Sonic's new design [prototype]. Real rough sketch. I'll be refining it and adding lots of details but this is what I got so far. As far as Mecha Madness goes... I work my ass off for this thing. Hopefully the fact that it's back to life and working well will keep me motivated to get back into the old work regimen I used to have. I'm also open for any help anyone can offer. It's a big project and I really want to get it done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vexus Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Platinum Sonic makes me think of the B&B unit in MGS4... probably just because of the heels. Still, I'm glad you managed to sort out the problem that stopped you before, I've always enjoyed your project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streak Thunderstorm Posted May 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Platinum Sonic makes me think of the B&B unit in MGS4... probably just because of the heels. I actually got some inspiration from there. I also got some inspiration from Anubis from Z.O.E. The finished product will have wings like Anubis has.

Zenor Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Ah, good to know MM is back. Hope you'll be able to re-do all the stuff you've lost.. And keep progress. And by the way, Platinium Sonic is looking great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flame6753 Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Mr. Streak, I want you to save a (few) backup copy(s) every other day. Thats an order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shonumi Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Alright man, glad to see you back in business. I had a feeling you'd come back eventually, it was just a matter of when. Sticking with this project instead of starting a new one takes something else man. Platinum Sonic looks wicked too, can't wait to see it as an in-game sprite. Good luck with this endeavor, and for the love of life dude, keep your backups up to date! A second computer, your online e-mail account, neighbor's toaster, anything, just keep copies.

Password Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 I'm extremely glad you found a backup. Mecha Madness is awesome. But I recommend you backup EVERYTHING. Don't think that's overdoing it. Save when you change the smallest things. Buy a 1 GB Flash Drive. Store everything on there. Platinum Sonic is nice, but the body shape makes it look feminine.

Streak Thunderstorm Posted May 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Alright. I've gotten a few comments about Platinum Sonic's gender. As we all know, Robots have no genitalia so they can't truly be male or female, lol. However, Platinum Sonic is genderless. It has both male and female attributes.

Daniel Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 , Robots have no genitalia *pukes* Just kidding. Nice to see MM back on track Streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endri Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Oh dear good God! MechaMadness is back! Now that's awesome news <3 I can't wait to see some progress. I like Platinum Sonic's design a lot. I wonder how it'll look like in sprite form... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3DR0 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Mecha Madness is back! What incredible news! Thanks Streak, you've save my day! And Platinum Sonic looks so gay. õ__ô" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streak Thunderstorm Posted May 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Lol. I know Platinum Sonic rubs people the wrong way but I was going for that. You know.. in plenty of series there's a very feminine bad guy that kicks just about the most ass than any other. Take Orochima [Lol, anime.] from Naruto for example.

Endri Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 I'm okay with feminine enemies. In fact, I wish Platinum Sonic was female. That would be way so cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streak Thunderstorm Posted May 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 http://www.mediafire.com/?omzmtgmmdjg A little taste of what I've been doing for Mecha Madness so far. You can't attack any enemies but you can actually pull of smash moves [ala Brawl] now complete with the whole charge up and whatnot. I also programmed Sonic being hit and launched by enemies. Don't worry, it's not a brawl copy but the fighting needed to be a little more epic than it was before. Now Sonic can smash into walls and slide on the floor if he's stunned and hit hard. Double tap any direction to run fast [OMG REALLY!?] Smash moves.... Any direction+ ctrl. I programmed a little lag in the smash identifier so you dont have to press them at the exact same time.

P3DR0 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 It looks awesome! I loved the stand of Super Sonic. Congratulations! <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USC Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Yeah, really nice, the special effects especially. The whole 'screen going white for a few seconds' thing is sorta disconcerting though, and could lead to a whole lotta falling into pits. By the way, did you get those files I sent you?
