Title: The Riddler
Post by: ColdPyro on May 20, 2009, 08:32:24 PM
I talked to acey awhile ago about putting freeze and riddler in the project.
As of right now riddler has alot done all basics are almost done still gotta convert whites cane to the riddler staff I could really use a coder and maybe if someone wants to go over the sprite work i got too touch it up a little for the best outcome that would be awesome.
----------------Update-----------------------
new
Ive decided to go back and kind of redo the riddler want it to look as good as i can get it so i made my own base so far all i got is the stance concept for the new riddler and im probably going to add some of my old sprites too this just have to edit them a little bit.
I could use help with spriting and I need a coder so please if anyone wants in let me know.

wow he looks great!  What kind of attacks would he have?  All I remember is that he threw clues at Batman

Post by: ColdPyro on May 20, 2009, 09:07:20 PM
Still working on some ideas going to take things from the comics and the animated series and yea the movie
figured hell have the brain drain move staff attacks like how he can use his staff for the brain drain to daze the opponent he can maybe use it to shoot lasers or something just an idea hell have stuff from the animated series like the hand and minotaurs as maybe assists. And of course most hypers will be riddler challenges if it can be done like picking the right answer to a series of questions and if the wrong thing is picked the riddler will explode.

Basic attacks will use his staff
Specials will execute specials from the staff
-brain drain
-lasers
-rapid riddler staff attack
Hypers will be mostly riddle based
-Different riddles still not sure how to make this work correctly because im sure someone will figure it out and then everytime the cpu executes a riddle you would know so maybe combination riddles or something
-minotaur assist (2 different minotaur hypers
-hand of fate

Great use of the staff in those ideas.

Post by: Master Bison on May 20, 2009, 11:00:56 PM
He looks fantastic!

Some suggestions on his appaerance.

- He should have a question mark on his tie and hat maybe?
- The face needs a little bit of work-up so maybe he looks like TAS Riddler.

Other than that, great! May I ask who you're using as a base?

The base is White (KOF) and I agree on the question mark on the tie. Don't remember him ever having one on his hat though.
Title: Re: The Riddler
Post by: Master Bison on May 20, 2009, 11:18:16 PM
You're right he doesn't have one on the hat, just the tie.

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/45/Animated_Riddler.jpg)

He should look more or less like this when he's done but it looks like you're on the right path. He just needs some work on his face, that's all.
Title: Re: The Riddler
Post by: ColdPyro on May 21, 2009, 03:23:03 AM
hmm thought the face looked alright but im open for ideas if someone wants to go over my work and change the face maybe an assistant spriter for this that would be awesome and yea i been thinking about adding the question mark i got a few sprites with the question mark just when i started this wip i was going for the whole Batman Hush story riddler where he doesnt have all that its more basic but as i went on I thought it would be awesome to have different pallets for different versions of riddler.

Post by: Magma MK-II on May 21, 2009, 07:29:37 AM
Excellent work!

An idea for a hyper: you can take the example of Faust, he have a super where he summons four boxes, a ghost will come from one of them, then Faust slices the opponent. My idea is to have Riddler summons the four boxes (or six, one to each button), and depending on the button you press, a different box will open, with a different effect of course!

and you gotta make one with question marks all over his suit, for the old head (like me) who's been waiting for the riddle.
Title: Re: The Riddler
Post by: Alexziq on May 21, 2009, 10:10:11 AM
The shirt/tie area needs just a little work. It looks like the lines from Whites puffy shirt just had the detail removed, and colored. I have the same criticism of Joker for the DCVM project that his vest looks tucked into his pants because the detail was overlooked just a tad (still a fantastic character though)

I think for this kinda project that the detail is important.
Title: Re: The Riddler
Post by: Megabyte on May 21, 2009, 12:58:40 PM
Someone asked about attacks, and think that's a good question. I do have a suggestion...why not use "The Batman" as a base for attacks for Riddler? He was kinda a good fighter in there...just a thought

His pants change shading from a frame to another, is misaligned (easy fix) and the soulder from the staff arm moves weird...

Sorry thats not likely too happen that might only be seen in a intro or ending or maybe a hyper like how scruffys batman has all the different batmans in the hyper there might be something like that with riddler alt attires im thinking right now with the win pose he will be standing there making a shhh like pose with his  finger over his mouth then maybe in every win pose the attire will change maybe. --Mr E-- haha just watched batman forever he has alot of awesome stuff in that

thinking about starting over kind of on the riddler and creating something from scratch im working on something right now and it looks alot better then what i got im still going to probably keep the get hits some of them that i got and edit them a little.

side note thinking about making a private forum for everyone working on the batman project so we can all help each other and trade ideas that way we can probably get stuff done and create something better
Title: Re: The Riddler
Post by: A New Challenger on June 09, 2009, 02:40:12 AM
New one is a step down rather than an improvement.

Scratching doesn't mesh well with Capcom style, especially not pillow shading. That's a fine TAS Riddler, but you'll probably want to be sticking to bases for a full char.

Look for bases wearing suits - Matrimelee has a few, as does AoF. White wasn't a bad choice, but his animations are really limited. Good luck.

I agree, I am more fond of the first stance you had going there. ANC listed a few great bases to pull from as well.

Post by: Alexziq on June 12, 2009, 02:40:18 PM
Personally I think you were on the right track with White as base. No one has really released a decent character edited from him. I think you should take a look a Jay Highs edit from a year or so back, and make it look like this. I'm sure I could help get permission for this. If you need any help, just holla

Took a cue from the tie and palette on that old edit Alexziq posted. White top, Eagle bottom. Kain from MotW would be a great third base for extra kicks. White alone won't work, he's missing numerous basic motions, as he was a boss character originally. All the same, he's probably the best top you could work from for Eddie.

(http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7237/riddler.png)

Good luck. I wouldn't worry about the other WIP using White. Riddler outprioritizes Clock King, and that fellow would be better off using Clock King's newer 'Long hair and trench' look, anyway.

Actually no, Clock King is not for this project.

Just to avoid confusion there are 2 new Batman projects. IMT's of course, and Spiderbat, Super_Joker, Spooky, and I's. I'm sure there are others as well. So there wont be 2 white bases in your project. While the newer Clock King may look better to some I think the version were tackeling is more based on the animated version. Its still in early developement so I'm sure it will continue to improve visually.

as far as i know they dont share the same abilities, havent had the chance for reading all of the terror titan issues though.. i wanna base my clock kings moves on the animated series version, when he had that time field generator..

coldpyro! dont change his look just because i use the same base! you started your wip months before mine! and i dont wanna make him too similar to white, i started to rework all of his sprites (he will have a sword).. btw i like your riddlers new look, just the shoes look odd, the old look was great too! i say if both of us will change a few things, they wont be too similar!

I hadn't been aware that you guys were making a TAS game until after I posted that. In the comics, Clock King had rarely been seen in his other incarnation, as opposed to popping up a ton lately in his newer one. It wasn't intended as a dig, so apologies.

All the same, even if you guys did both use straight up White, there's room for over 9,000 Shoto edits, so why not?

Sorry to say, but I'm not too fond on your new design. I much prefered what you had earlier.

Like ANC and Batz said, take some ideas from this edit and continue to use White and add in Eagle's legs. I think that it is the best way of continuing.

Post by: A New Challenger on June 15, 2009, 12:37:35 AM
Number 2 is fine, but you need some more contrast in those greens. Having them bleed together like that isn't quite Capcom styled. All the same, that's just a palette thing so it can be fixed in post.

Good luck, glad you liked the redesign.

He might as well have cane swipes for most basics, but if he really wanted to give him say an LK, he has King, Yamazaki and Rugal as ready bases.
Title: Re: The Riddler
Post by: Tenspeed on July 27, 2009, 12:07:30 AM
methinks yamazaki would be the better choice of the three, as he has "dirty" looking kicks, and the otehr two are more martial arts. riddler doesn't strike me as a karate champ.

the classic riddler the jim carrey riddler and hopefully if he is in the next movie maybe even add something from that but that stuff prob wont be in his 1st release im more worried about just finishing all his basics and all that stuff right now I still could use some help with the breathing animations and taunt breathing animation im no good with making breathing animations and he needs them

Instead of going back and redoing it, why not make the standing pose the intro and have the second set of sprites to be for battle.
