Damn, very nice! :tup:
Intersting take on the spiral LV3…PM me when you get the chance I have a method set for the actual Metamorph color shifts that looks promising…
I apologize for my noobness in mvc2 color changing before I start!
I am tryin to edit the colors and I started with magneto just because I have been reading this forum and zachd’s website and it seems that he is easy so I figured it would be a good starting character to learn the basics of editing the color.
I see the different palettes for the different colors (lp, lk, etc) but do not understand what the lp (extra 02) palettes’ purpose. Are those palettes used for different action animations the character performs during the match? (like cyke’s kick, mag’s waves around his c.fp and crap like that) I saved the full pdf file by eidrian but do not fully understand how to make the edits correctly (I’m sure I could figure out by trial and error but I would prefer somebody shed some light for me before I go wasting assloads of blank cd’s :-p I WILL DO IT!!). I just dont want to have a whacked up color edit due to colors changing when moves are performed~plz hlp<3
Hit me up on AIM if you’re still on I’ll explain what is necessary…
Various thoughts on move edits: Psylocke seems the easiest to edit well. And most of Cable’s specials are pretty easy. AHVB seems a little more difficult. Tron’s rings look pretty glitchy easily, so be careful with her. The Shoto fireballs look nice customized. If you’re going to do Megaman’s buster, you can pretty much reuse that for the Mega Buster - the different projectile size is a fair differentiation point. And you’re not using Mega Buster anyways. Coloured rocks for Doom look pretty great.
Doom is a lotta fun to edit. His outfit design is very simple, but can be spiced up. I saw one edit where the inside of the cape was burgundy, while the outside was black. Wish Cyke had different colors for the Optic blasts. Change one, change them all, unfortunately.
My biggest (and only problem) is getting NullDC to operate on my computer.
copy pasted from other thread:
there is a lot of updates pending for palmod that cover a range of different aspects of the coloring issue. so that’s why i haven’t done anything for this stuff. everything is going to be idiot proof.
eidit* here are bins i made for an event a few weeks ago. i made it in like 2 daysish.
the reason it’s a rar of all the bin files is cause i dont want to take a million PNGs cause all the characters have edited extras and follow a code.
LP = Blue
LK = Red
HP = Black
HK = Green/Yellow
A1 = Light Colors
A2 = Dark Colors
The characters that are in there:
Cyclops
Psylocke
Doom
Tron
Ruby Heart
Cable
Dhalsim
Juggernaut
Storm
Magneto
Iron Man
Sentinel
Captain Commando
Servbot
Very nice, Magnetro.
CDRWIN is being a pain in the ass, it’s not recognizing my CD-R when I press start.
i don’t think it’s supposed to, just use CDRwin to make your image.
Word. Go to the drop down menu and make sure you’re selcting to build an image and not build and burn.
Word thanks guys, I got it to make the iso, but now the site isn’t working, can someone fill me in what to do next?
-Change the file from whatever.iso to data.bin
-Start up selfboot.exe, and then drag the data.bin file into the selfboot window
-Start up DiscJuggler or whatever you’re using to burn, and selct the “burn disc image” option
-Select your whatver.cdi file that selfboot converted for you
-Click on the “advanced” tab, set the mode to Mode 2, and the TOC to CD-XA, and uncheck the “add post-gap…etc” checkbox
-It’ll give you some message about only being able to burn at a certain speed or a certain # of megabytes or whatever, click OK/Yes
My disk is going straight to CD player when I power on the DC, so obviously I did something wrong, I’ll check it out in the morning 
I’m rewatching the FRXI footage now… I had been pretty turned off by some of those mixes, and rewatching it it seems like editing Captain Commando’s corridor (his AA assist) is probably a really bad idea. It’s black here - that extreme shift in contrast is really offputting (remember - that covers about a 1/3 or more of the screen). Also, if a move is “sparkly” – why? Fix that so it blends. 
On tape one you’ll see what I mean with green and red sparkly tornados from Storm. (I think there were 4-5 mixes used over the course of it all, so you’ll see other stuff too.) It’s generally a good mix, but Marvel is full of visual cues so I think it’s imperative for a tourney-caliber mix to not be jarring or really distracting. At a tourney, people are trying to win games, not watch you break the crayon box. :lol: Not trying to harsh on anyone, just – random thoughts while I’m watching the footage.
Depending on the color scheme, wouldn’t that look better? I thought the black corridor was nicely done and it fit the black themed Cap commando. I never realized how big the corridor was on the screen before, due to the pale blue. The black stood out and I personally, really saw how big the damn thing was. I know some characters can be distracting, tough (Dominatrix Cable and Gimp Cyclops comes to mind). After the initial noticing of the new colors, they don’t distract me while I’m getting my ass whooped. Unless it’s just a horrible mix, like the one you had Fugee replace on the left TV.
Regarding the black corridors…ppl just have to learn how to properly blend colors in a negative fashion…just straight black and no sort ov blend/shading just makes the damn thing look like a mess…
People…don’t make your projectiles look like crap…seriously…if the colors on your mix are not on par and will fuck up the visual cues ov the game during tournament time…don’t even bother using it…just stick with your music mix and OG colors…
Look better? Sure, but all sorts of things might “look” better. It’s a flare of coloration, and it takes my eyes a second or two to readjust back to normal game colors, at which point I was getting hit. Consistent colors (such as Rambo Cable) work better that way because they’re not flaring up onscreen and distracting the eye. =\ I like to block, but that requires that I can see what the hell is onscreen.
Ok, so I’m not getting something, all I’m doing is burning what files I have in my ‘data’ folder on to the disk. Can someone help?
Thanks to this one paragraph, I have successfully burned my first Mix.
