Cool, I really like the way you did the Sentinel boss. It made a lot of sense and it looked fantastic coming in and out of the background.

 

[Smart Kitty]

Nice video!!
I wish you good luck with your cool mod

Trexrell44 Thanks buddy. And its all done by code

Some more updates to the Ahab stage: now there is an extra front layer some changes on the floor.

Plus, I've animated it finally and I will record a video soon.

 

[O Ilusionista]

I want to share something I did and I really proud of how it looks

An idea I wanted to do has been around for a long time and I managed to do it now: working with palettes in the scenarios. The color of the scene changes according to the element in use - each element works differently - and, if there are 2 players, you face more enemies.

Only at this stage, the Elemental does not randomly change its palette (which makes it change power) when it rises after a fall.

Oh, and now the select screen has a little slide effect on each character

 

[DCurrent]

Nice O Ilusionista. Aren't stage palettes fun?

DC

 

[O Ilusionista]

Damon Caskey indeed! OpenBOR never ceases to amazes me

 

[Bloodbane]

Aaah, so that's how it looks. Good 

 

[O Ilusionista]

its on my plans to make a full screen white fx which will quickly fades.
What amazes me is that all this change is native by the engine, you don't need to use any script

I really liked the result

 

[oldyz]

So for the changes, when elementals appear, you have a background entity that changes the palletes/colors, or there is away to actually change the background/fg layers without script or entities spawning?

there is a level where its supposed to re-color from nighttime to daylight that i needed to fix, & this might be the best option....

 

[O Ilusionista]

oldyz I just change the background palettes (all parts of it shares the same palette) using the command "setpalette", with no scripts or entities

thanks , i will test this

 

[16-bit Fighter]

Great job for always providing various stages!

The flame seems weird to me because its core is red instead of white.

 

[O Ilusionista]

16-bit Fighter yes, I need to fix the palette.

Now Black Cat automatically escapes fatal falls from holes (if she has enough energy) and should receive another trick soon.

You do some awesome work!

That's hot! Kind of like Jean's rescue in the X-men sega game.

 

[O Ilusionista]

Trexrell44 yeah, kinda like that Other characters already does the same (the flying ones) and Quicksilver can recover when falling from the truck.

A new boss is joining Avengers United Battle Force - Chrome. Thanks Jhfer for the edits.

One thing I found weird about official games is that they just tended to make the Acolytes generic enemy characters, such as Chrome at least twice. Nice to see more Acolytes get their dues as proper bosses in this game. I wonder if there’s even more Acolytes, or perhaps other boss encounters against what were in previous games demoted to generic enemies like Krakoa and Living Monolith, down the line?

Miru yeah I like to give a chance to forgot characters, and they even haven't gave Chrome a good change in the comics too - he died very quickly to save Magneto

Living Monolith is someone I would like to add someday if its possible. And Exodus could be a very difficult boss too.

Great Neptune's Trident! Namor has a new riseattack, where he calls a water geiser to attack the enemies. The old riseattack is now his duckattack.

 

[O Ilusionista]

How it sounds? I've made just the fence and the pillars semi transparent, not the lower area.
(notice that his legs are covered, but not his torso).

I decided to add this type of effect only on stages where the view is blocked a lot, like this one:

But not int stages where the frontpanel is low, like this

 

[O Ilusionista]

While I don't consider myself a spriter, I really like the result of this NPC I did for the underwater stage.  She is a very obscure Inhuman called... wait for it... Mermaid https://comicvine.gamespot.com/mermaid/4005-47400/

I had plans to add Shark Girl (Iara dos Santos) as an NPC, but her edit was too hard to me to edit and esn23 gave me a easier character to edit
