Which means its guts might be ripped and datamined for me to look at if / when the files become available for modding. So up until then, I will work on content that does NOT entail desired stuff new to Ultimate.

First of all I've thought about it, and I'm taking Super Smash Bros. Feud updates back to public! As long as I don't make a download available till Ultimate drops, I should be fine.

So speaking of Ultimate, there's a part of it I got VERY inspired by! Stay tuned for that!

Next up! I redesigned the game's title logo! As seen in the OP the blandness, gradients, etc are GONE and I made something more streamlined! The word "FEUD" is divided in half by a slash graphic, to symbolize two sides in a fight.

So now I'm working on restructuring and rewriting the code for the fighters. Now, all common stuff like walking, running, etc. will be in the main fighter superclass, and all fighters will use a subclass with their name on it with specific stuff like attacks / specials / attributes. The way I was doing it previously was starting to get too convoluted for even me, the coder, to read. Not good.

I've also started to implement my own programming for a collision detection / movement / physics system. The usual Rigidbody/collider system didn't meet my needs, so I'm using Unity's built in "Raycasting" system to code a custom system. There's a few kinks at the moment but for the moment it works as intended!

Next up, when I need a break from coding, I'm taking a step ahead and setting up models / textures / materials up in advance so that when I'm ready to start working on them, I can just drag and drop them back into the project in a jiffy.

While I will not comment on roster specifics at the moment, I CAN announce that 4 fighters have been cut from the returning roster of official games.

In case you're interesting, I have a Facebook page and a GameJolt for SSBF! I will soon add these to my OP!

I also have new snapshots I will be adding to the Imgur album. Just bear with me!

I began working on a test stage and some animations. Later I'll start to work on my first character and his physics, collisions and actual attacks. Until I get an .OMO viewer for Smash Wii U, for some veterans, I will be using Brawl animations and recreating them in Unity. Others will have to wait, and a few veterans will get completely remade and will look nothing like their "official" counterparts. I began a debug menu, which I will port over to the new project. Just need to fix the music playback system and then get cracking on being able to spawn fighters, items and stages when needed / requested.

I had to restart the project because some things in the original one started to get buggy. I started this on Unity 4, I'm on 5.3.2p4 now.

I kept code and assets from the original files. In this "new" version (if you can call it that), I will import assets only as I need them instead of rushing to cram everything into the project right away. Maybe then, after I'm done working, if new assets I need are released / ripped / made, I can put them in later. I want to release a demo of this thing, and I'd like to pull a Sakurai and not leak content (as little of it as possible till I reveal it.

I redesigned my test stage, and I'm showing it with lighting/shadows.



My plan is to whip up 5 fully-playable characters, 2-3 complete stages (not including the test one) and create the demo first, put it aside, then after more work, make a first trailer.

So until I have more, see ya!
