A2MBXT - Graphics

[Frozelar]

... I forgot it was bad to have pure white/black on SMBX images like that
(I never did figure out why it matters, though...)

Well anyways, if we're gonna be using the red one, then here's an attachment in which there should be no pure white anymore.

[Money]

Does anyone still have MoneyMan's large archive of SMBX graphics that got lost in the Talkhaustrophe?

I don't have them, my hard drive crashed and I lost them. I can't sprite on this computer because it uses a trackpad with no clicking buttons. Sorry.

I remember someone actually putting them into the game. Was that lost?

I lost your SMB3 Lakitu Graphic.

Thanks, but

The jumping one could be a beggar/hobo version to balance it out.

I'll hold onto it anyway in case we can't get another graphic.

[SAJewers]

OK, I ended up doing this:

Menshay: Could you post a copy of the SNES version of the itembox, that's formatted correctly & ready to insert into the exe?

Things we need to/should change:
npc-75 (Jumping Toad) (We have one, but still taking submissions)
npc-205 (Geemer) (We have one, but still taking submissions)
npc-249 (SMB2 Mushroom)
npc-273 (Swap Mushroom. Does nothing except in 2 player mode)
npc-208, effect-111 (Mother Brain Glass)
block-598 (Jelectro)
npc-290 (Airship cockpit. Maybe)

Not sure if we should change these, probably not?:
block-4 (SMB3 Breakable block)
block-188 (SMB Breakable Block)
block-226 (SMB3 Big Breakable Block)
effect-108 (Metroid destroy effect. used for some Misc enemies)
effect-63 (Zelda destroy effect, used for killing npc-125 and most things Sheath kills)
effect-10 (some smoke effect, can't remember what this is for)
effect-71 (star effect that appears when SMB3 Bomb-omb explodes)
effect-76 (dunno what this is used for)
effect-147 (again, dunno what this is for)
effect-148 (star effect, part of Kood's Bombs)
background-87, effect-55 (SMB Brown Door)
background-104 (SMW Big Red Door)
background-107, effect-59 (SMB3 Door)
background-141, effect-103 (SMW Ghost House Door)

[Willhart]

That list is missing some of my never replacements, like the locked door and Larry Koopa. I've been editing my posts in order to avoid double posting.

[SAJewers]

Fixed. Just double post, as I seem to keep missing them.

[Menshay]

Is this fine?

Wasn't a Mother Brain glass replacement already proposed a couple of pages ago?

[SAJewers]

Not exactly. See this and this on how to change hardcoded graphics. They need to be gif as well, and I need a mask.

As for that Mother Brain Glass replacement, that was submitted to go with a Mother Brain we're not using (since we already have one).

[Menshay]

Better?

Would've preferred if you kept the naming convention that Extractor.exe used, but that'll do i guess.

EDIT: Sorry, my mistake, it needs to be .bmp. I thought everything was .gif. I'll just convert it.

EDIT: Do we wanna change the look of the Hearts in the HUD For raocow/Kood/Sheath? What about the battle mode stuff, like the attatched? The Font?

[Demolition]

Are we going to change the default text boxes? I think they should be stark black.

[raocow]

stark black is a bit much. A neutral grey is always better, I just don't know if it would look out of place in the game.

[Doctor Shemp]

If you mean pure black, don't pure black and white mess things up? Unless text boxes work differently to normal graphics.

[SAJewers]

I've lost who submitted this, but I do have this.

[Willhart]

You can use the glass if it fits.

Also the hardcoded replacements can't be too much bigger than the original. Hopefully that itembox can fit in the game.

[SAJewers]

Can we fix this? It's kind of annoying me.

What is wrong with it?

[SAJewers]

Outline on Demo isn't correct/looks wrong to me. Compare with Iris:

[docopoper]

I like demo's sprite more, she has a higher light to dark contrast.

[SAJewers]

I dunno, that Dark blue on Demo almost looks like Black to me (the main reason I posted that, I actually thought that was black).

[Frozelar]

I would have never noticed that in a million years if you hadn't mentioned it. Although now that you do, I kinda see what you mean. I feel like it's such a minor detail that it shouldn't really matter, but that's just me.

[Pheonix]

Alright, here's a jelectro replacement.

Just tried it out, and looks a lot better than I thought it would have.
