the general idea is good, just needs a few touch ups.

I’m trying to edit cyclops palette (59)Extra but I don’t know what it means by red highlight.

I just made that the same color as the normal palette. I guess it’s the palette used when he does his super. make it the same color as his normal palette and the system added the shine on when you do the super in game.

what about the palette after with the hk grab, It says to add red tint but don’t know how

has anyone looked into custom levels?

say you knew what program the marvel developers used to make the stages. Then you open up stage 1 in the program and get the screen length dimensions and wrote them down.

Could you then use the proper dimensions, make a brand new stage then save it in the exact same file type as the original stages so that marvel would accept it?

that would be interesting… i’m waiting for ppl to redo the voice overs. like cable does AHVB and say’s “eat that shit… eat it all!” then does this crazy laugh . “BWAHAHAHA”

i dunno, i need some more bud so i can brainstorm.

selfboot.exe isn’t working for me on vista 64 bit

Anything I can do?

I don’t think it would be that hard to redo the voices. That shouldn’t be too complicated. Usually, the voices are triggered by individual sound files and replacing those should be just as simple as replacing the music if they’re the same format.

But i’m really intrested about the levels. If anyone has any kind of tips on how to work that, I’d appreciate it.

also, mvc2 with OG music is only like 256mb’s or so. Its not that big. What I was thinking is that the rest of the space, 400mb’s, can be used to select music and select colors.

Have some sort of menu to select versions of entire colors. Like group 1 containing all 56 characters of different colors. Then group 2, same thing but different colors. After the colors has been selected, it would be dope to select the music. Not individual tracks but rather the entire music of 1 copy. Say you could choose from hip hop\ dnb\ rock\ techno\ and each genre would have all the sound files needed for the type of genre.

The way tdc v2 is setup, I can see something like this working but you would need someone to program a menu select to allow for this to work. Its kinda retarded that I have to switch disc’s out when I want different colors or different music. Especially when there’s 400mbs+ of extra space thats just being dummied up.

Hey Paul if you are up for making me a custom Marvel when you get the voices and stage thing figured out I’ll finish getting that computer for you I told you about back at Final Round.

^–x2 go read toodle’s last post in this thread. He has mentioned this before. :tup:

What exactly happens?

hey zach, according to this having multiple tracks isn’t a problem. Sounds pretty simple but what about multiple colors, like ground 1, group 2, 3, 4 and so forth?

sure thing john. It can’t be that hard but 3d stuff isn’t my forte`. In fact I know jack shit about it but thats why its called reading right? What i’m hoping for is that I can find the program to view the stages the DL-ed some 3d renedered stuff and do a copy and paste job if something to that extent is possible.

one last thing, can anyone tell me which files are the stages themselves?

Thanks!!!

That was an earlier post by Toodles, here’s his last one:

That seems to answer the question with a Why Yes That Is Indeed Possible.

DUDE! lol. gotta have it!

Just a few random, mostly brown fingered numbers:
MvC2 base is like 150 megs.
Each characters .DAT is like 1 meg I think. I know most people don’t have colors edited for the entire 52 character roster, so if we assume a healthy 20 characters per edit collection, that’s 20 megs per person.
Which means a 700 meg disc will hold edit collections for ((700-150)/20)=27.5 people’s edit collections.
If we assume 50 megs of music data, thats ((700-15)/(20+50))=8 full reedits and music collections, plus the unaltered original.

But if you guys want it by Evo, gotta fricken get on it. Maybe Preppy could be talked into a drop spot for people to drop off their edits?

When do you want them by? Weds, Monday, Sunday?

OK, I’m officially collecting edits now from people.
You can either PM me a URL to your edits, send them via AIM (or MSN), or PM me and we’ll work something out (~my~ solution will involve SFTP via FileZilla only, so know that up front - easiest way is maybe just sending them to my zachd at hotmail dotty com email account).
