hey ricky, i got project m to work at home.
do different characters have different timings for short jump?
i was having a really hard time getting it with toon link, but when i tried with falco it was like 90%+
Just a reminder ill be late. Won’t be there til ~11 or so. Make sure you stay so I can kick your ass. If you’re drunk it’s on you, I won’t be drinking so if you can’t beat me drunk and you plan on drinking then rescind all chance of gaining honor now.
Yeah, every character has a different number of prejump frames, which means some short hops can be held down a lot longer. Try with Ganondorf or Bowser, you’ll probably never miss a short hop because their prejump is crazy high, whereas Fox is pretty tough because he jumps almost instantly (Falco has higher prejump than Fox). I don’t know where toon link is on the list (since he was a Brawl character, not a Melee character)… you can probably find a list of prejump frames for all the characters somewhere on smashboards. But yes just like wavedashing is different for each character, so is short hopping, but it’s inverted… characters with awkwardly slow wavedashes have super easy short hops.
You’ll get it, though, short hopping just requires a bit of practice with how long you hold the jump button, eventually you’ll find a way to press it that works 100% for you. You may also consider getting a new gamecube controller if you’re going to spend some time with the game and you don’t like those old ones?
Example, Smashboards sells them directly: http://astore.amazon.com/smashboards00-20/detail/B0017KIBAI
Also Mike, if you’re curious to read up on techniques, you can get a brief overview of various stuff here: http://www.reddit.com/r/SSBPM/comments/1whpb8/guide_project_m_techniques/ or take a look at ssbwiki.com, they have a great set of gifs of what various techniques look like + more in-depth explanations. Not every technique in that list above is necessary to learn btw, most of them are only useful for certain chars.
