why dont we support the mods that are making something new and original out of the game

Besides a lot of shit other people have said, ST is a mysterious…some say cursed…chunk of coding. Weird stuff piled on top of CPS-1 era SF2 code duct taped together. It was somewhat known even before HDR got the green light that changing one thing in ST would cause three other weird changes in completely unrelated areas of the game. Capcom keeps trying to port the damned game, but it won’t put up with that shit…with every port having something different/wrong/broken.
I bring all that crap up because…holy shit…good luck. You might get something that looks kind of like ST, but the spirit of ST demands it exists only in CPS2 form.
Well, my intention wasn’t really to duplicate ST (since we have ST for that… and failing that, HDR). It would just be interesting to see “The SF4 that many people wanted all along. (ie. nostalgia version)” Of course, some people wanted SF4 to be 3S-ish, but going from SF4 to ST is a much shorter trip than SF4 to 3S.
And yes, I also think that SF4 art style is ugly. But unlike some people, ultra-low-res games are also ugly to me. (despite me being rather old and playing those games as a teen.)
Actually, I didnt have any intentions at all - I’m not really a SF fan. I just thought that this would be a pretty obvious mod to make and wondered why noones attempted it yet. But I guess the “why not just play ST?” argument is a compelling one.
As long as I can throw for 50% of your health and bison can cross up touch of death I’ll be happy with an ST mod.
