Content Provider lucky1 Posted April 22, 2017 Content Provider Posted April 22, 2017 Did you get a flicker free dump ?
Content Provider malenko Posted April 22, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted April 22, 2017 no, cant seem to snag one. Been redrawing every frame by hand anyway.
Content Provider lucky1 Posted April 22, 2017 Content Provider Posted April 22, 2017 That will not work. Did you test both modes ?
Content Provider malenko Posted April 22, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted April 22, 2017 I'll retry. Why wont redrawing everything work? the majority of the animations are pretty terrible. The display flickers on the actual DMD as well.
Content Provider lucky1 Posted April 23, 2017 Content Provider Posted April 23, 2017 The scenes that are generated dynamically with e.g. player number or score would not be displayed correctly because they would be replaced. You can only replace scenes which are always the same like the logos you already did. The other scenes could be colored by using a appropriate palette.

You can only replace scenes which are always the same like the logos you already did. The other scenes could be colored by using a appropriate palette. Almost none of the scenes in SFII show anything dynamic. VERY stop and go gameplay, make a shot, stop and watch a scene. Its why everyone hates it The only "dynamic scenes" are car crush scenes (1 scene that has 3 animation parts), barrel crush , millions circle shot, torpedo shot count, guile shot count, and Vega rewards, planned on doing pal swaps for those. I am pretty sure the Chun Li skill shot loops, so I'll only have to redraw the main 10 frames.
Content Provider malenko Posted April 24, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted April 24, 2017 So after checking over the capture file again it turns out the section shouwing the portrait with an X over it *IS* dynamic , "X number of fighters remaining" so they'll have to be palette tricked, but all the "death" animations are not, so I took a break from drawing the street fighter logo 26 times and started E honda's sumo torpedo
Content Provider malenko Posted May 2, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 2, 2017 E Honda's Trigger is 100% done M Bison's trigger is 100% done Ryu's trigger is 100% done Capcom / Street Fighter logo is 100% done I do not think its possible to redo the "result screen" at this time, I need to mask the amount of fighters defeated and remaining, and redraw the rest of the frame.
Content Provider malenko Posted May 2, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 2, 2017 this is taking longer because Im not just picking colors, Im redrawing the bulk of it. for example, this is Ryu's in game animation: And this is my redraw:
Content Provider malenko Posted May 3, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 3, 2017 And Guile's trigger animation is complete!
Content Provider malenko Posted May 5, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 5, 2017 takin a break till monday
Content Provider malenko Posted May 8, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 8, 2017 The "defeats" done now include: Balrog, Bison,Blanka,Guile, Ken, and Ryu. I tried something different with Blanka, and instead of his win stance you get his "knocked out" animation. the 32 pixel limit made both of his win stances (repeated back flips or hand raise) too hard to made look good. Much like Guile, I got 2 special moves in!
Content Provider malenko Posted May 10, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 10, 2017 Just Chun Li is left for the "defeated fighter" animations. Then I need to try out this BETA firmware for gottlieb and see if I can use masks for the dynamic scenes. Attached is the 2million point Yoga Flame shot
Content Provider malenko Posted May 10, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 10, 2017 CHUN LI IS DONE!!!!!! That means all the defeated fighter animations are in the books!
Content Provider UncleSash Posted May 12, 2017 Content Provider Posted May 12, 2017 Is there any way, to use that in the VPin Version? My wife loves Street Fighter!

Content Provider malenko Posted May 16, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 16, 2017 The plan for now is to release it for Vpins and beg for donations to make me want to color and share more pins, T2 is next. For now, its nearing time to start these:

Content Provider lucky1 Posted May 20, 2017 Content Provider Posted May 20, 2017 The dynamic scenes like defeated Honda can be colorized using ColMask mode. In this mode you have the palette devided into 4 blocks of 4 colors. Here is an example of what happens when drawing a rectangle with block 1 2 3 4 using the palette 0 (vga) The upper left square uses the color 1-4 which are also used by the rest of the picture. Upper right 5-8, lower left 9-12 and lower right 13-16. You can see that the content from the machine stays the same but the colors in the area change according to the block you selected the color from. Of course you are not limited to the rectangle tool. You can also choose the area with the fill tool or even a single pixel. That way you should be able to colorize Honda no matter what is written on the left.
Content Provider malenko Posted May 21, 2017 Author Content Provider Posted May 21, 2017 I finally figured it out. I think a better way to explain it is "make the first color of each block your masking color" , the other 3 colors are then used for shading.
