(http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/4349/darkmanwryyy.gif) Now it's official. Darkman will be joining the mayhem!
The progress so far:
All sprites are DONE! However I'll still make some minor adjustments to some sprites.
I also want to add a new special move, since by now I've just sprited two (a common projectile and a paralization projectile).
Feel free to give any suggestions.

Tank mode: Dark Man transform to Dark Man form 1 with treads instead of legs, that shoots at and tries to run over Mega Man. His speed increases as he receives damage. Like Rush drill hyper maybe but with life/time bar
(http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/d/da/Mm5dark1sprite.png)
Dark Man form 4:He transforms into form 4.He uses an electromagnetic barrier around him like Dark Man 2, but it's launched to the sides of the screen when he jumps, and returns to him after landing. Only for a short time
(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/f/fc/Darksprite.png)
Dark man form 3: He transforms into form 3 and can paralyze enemies with a ring shaped beam, and his right arm is a rapid fire weapon

Totally have to have special intros vs. Megaman and Protoman where he's the fake Protoman and Protoman unmasks him.

I've already sprited 'em all. The #1 Darkman (tank) will do like the Rush Drill, #3 Darkman will shoot a barrage of shots and #4 Darkman will create a force field (like Chun-Li).
...and there it is.
Awesome, I was hoping you'd come through on that.

I've sprited a intro where he starts as Protoman (in a darker pallete) then morphs into his true self. I was thinking on a special intro Vs. Megaman just like in Megaman 5. I've asked Chaotic for permission to use his Protoman sprite.
I'll post some sprites later.

Darkman is from Mega Man 5, he frames Protoman from kidnaping Dr. Light, and makes you wonder the whole time if protoman's swaped sides.

Him tossing the enemy around?
Reason why I suggest it is because in the MvC background he's lugging around sandbags so I thought it'd be a good idea to kinda rely a bit on the physical side.
Post by: G.P.O.A - GatlingPunchRalf on September 13, 2009, 02:30:59 AM
Maybe one of his intro could have him start off with a cape, similar to the one his MMBN3 incarnation has! YAY!

While I was reading this topic I found this sprite made by me some years ago:

It's Darkman.EXE
It's not really perfect but I was pretty bad with spriting back then :P
I don't know what the sprite misses but IIRC Darkman.EXE had just one sprite in the original game :-??
well, I decided to post it in the case that you were interested in using it for something.

It's hard to see on the dark forum background but the rugged outlines were intentional, as I was trying to mimic the Marvel Vs Capcom 1 Portrait style. I can always clean them up if necessary.

Be my guest! :thumbsup: You could always study the MvC1 portraits a little more, if you want (you know, pay attention to all the subtle details and such).
No offense, of course.

Still, as I said here and on a PM I sent you (that was a bit of jumping the gun on my part ???), some subtle details could be added.
Well, maybe just the "gritty" scratchy lines that can be seen near Mega Man's neck and shoulders, or some such.
Edit: Come to think of it, did you intend to leave the pipes, connected to Dark Man's brain, without black outlines? I think they would look better with those.
Edit 2: On second thought, the pipes' outline color is fine as it is. :thumbsup:
Post by: Magma MK-II on November 02, 2009, 07:48:32 AM
Dunno if I'll use it, it'll depend on how the portraits will be in the final template of the project.

I would be surprised if one of Darkman's hypers calls for a dozen of those amazing lightning bolts.
Actually I'll use it for a special move, something like Goenitz's Kokoudeska!
Now the only thing I have yet to improve now is the defense stances, where I'll use the shield idea from Megaman 5.

No, something like a barrier rotating around him:

Post by: KudosForce on December 03, 2009, 08:14:41 AM
By the way, will he have a special intro where he "appears" as Proto Man (complete with the off-key whistle) and changes to his real form, when fighting against Mega Man and/or Proto Man (in Proto Man's case, he would get shot by him, just like in MM5)?
Post by: Royal_Squat on December 03, 2009, 04:34:25 PM
He definitely needs to have the barrier from that. 8)

Yeah I think that having an Intro is a good idea. It really adds to the game when Character have special intro for each other. Like when Evil Ryu fights Evil Ken, It really gets your blood pumping. :thumbsup:
Post by: Magma MK-II on December 04, 2009, 08:00:15 AM
My idea would be him appearing as Protoman, then the real Protoman appear behind Megaman and shot him, making him show his true form.

In the video he just falls down, unmasks Darkman, then jumps up. No line. Either way is cool with me though.

Darkman #3. Very simple, just a barrage of shots.
Why does his body totally change in these sprites? It looks kind of odd to me the way it hapens

Its because in the game, there are several differnt version of dark man you fight, one with a bazooka arm, one with tank treds, one red and spikey and the other one is normal i think.
And sence its a hologram robot, his base from dosnt have to be anything humane looking. The inhuman apperance of Dark Man is like a reflection into the dark side of humanity, a cold mechine willing to mask itself as something friendly only to distory you.
Its actualy pritty deep if you think about why the character was made.

I mean I understand that, but it is just the way it changes doesn't look right to me. I think it needs more of a flash, like the other sprites that MDMKII did.

I didn't see anything wrong with these kicks, they fit Darkman just right. I mean Darkman is a twisted robot and is sort of like the Yamazaki of Rockman. So he doesn't have to apply any force to his kicks.

I am going with this line of thinking with Darkman. The new strong kick still fits the zombie-like line of him. I've tought of adding a last frame, where he falls back after the attack.

Not too bad, but I think the upper part of the metal chest part needs to be reshaped a bit, and possibly the shading.

Yes, Jill Valentine's effects for Darkman #1 hyper.
I was watching Megaman: Apon a star, ep 1 on netflix this morning.
In it when mega man gets to Mt. Fugi, he's attacked by a bunch of Darkmen
One of them did a flying psychocrusher flying head first in like this blue fire ball kinda like that above, but this one had legs.
It was the second one to appear, the first was actualy the tank form, it shot at mega man, then mega man shot it in the head and it fell over.
Maybe you could do a lv 3 hyper thats like a super psycho crusher with darkman that has legs, in honor of the anime?
Post by: Magma MK-II on February 26, 2010, 09:38:47 AM
I'll take a look at it, and I may do a special move like this. He already have three hypers, and I think that's enough.

Awesome, but the cape loses the "W" when it's thrown. was that intentional?
The w is only on the back, it is present in the second frame.

It's because I used it as a base. I also took your idea and used Gambit for the cape. It took me two days to finish it!
Now, I believe spriting is 99,99% done. I'll go through all the sprites again and revise anything I might have missed.

lol.
I'm sure what he means by that is Airman is most likely going through some internal beta process.
Post by: Magma MK-II on March 31, 2010, 10:42:38 AM
While I understand your enthusiasm (and share it), a creation like this will probably take some time to code. How's that going by the way, MD?
A good question. I have focused solely on spriting him, agreeing with Laspacho to send him the sprites so that he would look for someone to code Darkman.
By the way, Darkman's sprites are 100% done! :w00t:

The progress so far:
All sprites are DONE! However I'll still make some minor adjustments to some sprites.
I also want to add a new special move, since by now I've just sprited two (a common projectile and a paralization projectile).
Feel free to give any suggestions.
nice work, dude. :thumbsup: =D>
by the way, are you going to post him in the M.U.G.E.N releases?
i really wanna try him out on mugen.
Post by: O Ilusionista on October 25, 2020, 12:28:06 PM
I've sent him all Dark Man file and he will be taking a look.
I made him feel free to choose to just set up the SFF or go programming the character. @Magma MK-II has already left several references and there is only one stroke that I want to program myself. And his voices I take care of later (I already have ideas).
Time for this character to finally see the light of day :)

(maybe I will change the last one)
Power sets 1 - 4 done:
Power Set 1 (default) - Dark Net
Lokcs the target for a while, leaving it open to combos
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EpxVWljXcAAVaEZ?format=png&name=small)
Power Set 2 - Tank Mode
Jumps foward and then dives over the target. If the movement hits the enemy, it passes over him on the ground.
Always change to the green palette while executing the move
(https://i.imgur.com/wG0cBQa.png)
Power Set 3 - Shooter Mode
Jump back and shoot some projectiles (1-3), depending on the button pressed.
Changes to the purple palette while executing the move

Power Set 4 - Proto Mode
Dashes forward (and diagonally too, depending of the button pressed).

- New special - Power Slam (DP+P)
- Removed air throw
Gonna add Electromagnetic Barrier with Grey color as a set?- Power Set 5 - Shield mode added (absorbs projectiles and damage upon hit, while rotating around the player)

You can throw the shields if you input the same command again.

Since Dark Man is already a different char from the others in some aspects, I've decided to make his AI a little different:
• Instead of rushing towards the target (as all other characters does on the game), his AI makes him to back dash, moving away from the enemy. while controlling the space with his projectiles. For sure, if you stay close to him, he will execute the normal grab/combo routines.
• Right now, the AI will randomly choose between the Normal Power set (Dark Net) and Proto Power Set on the start of the match - and this influence how his AI works. But I will improve it even more - I will make the AI always starts with the Proto Set and, if he loses the first round, then change to the Normal PS (since its harder to fight against).
I think this will make his AI pretty unique.
Post by: O Ilusionista on December 25, 2020, 11:08:38 AM
He is almost done, with 5 power sets and some hypers. We just need to finish the last power set and polish things here and there.
The movie shows a Lvl 8 AI battle (this is why he is kinda spammy), then me against Bass (AI) and then 2vs2 AI battle again.
