There's no end to esreveR sprite threads...

[esreveR]

Dammit, you guys! No responses again?! Not only that, but I've noticed quite a few of you guys never bother checking the tiles for rare/unused animations (That Bradley doesn't have its armor-piercer-death, you know...). But I digress. Here's some random shit I haven't updated in ages because Majhost sucks.



Why Run-N-Gun is so much more interesting, albeit less realistic.



How about playing a Rebel mowing down hordes of PF Squad members? Eh, maybe?



Hey, remember these guys from Uncharted 2?



That dark Metal Slug from MS1, which Ignition Entertainment (And presumably the developers themselves) liked enough to put on the front page of some really obscure MS Anthology site still sitting around with barely any views (I view it though, but the sounds are admittedly rather annoying).



Metal Slug Type-B. You had better fasten that seat belt of yours or you're not jumping out of this thing intact. (For those of you that don't get it, there's a Type-B Slugnoid in MS7 that pretty much allows for limitless jumping height. This is a Metal Slug variant similar in the respect it puts the Ostrich to same just as much, if not even more).



Spankin' new versions of friggin' old animations.



So it's been ripped a bajillion times and every time the guy thinks he's so clever. Yeah, well, I'm going to admit firsthand that this is definitely not clever at all.



Raise your hand if you want an Arcade-style version of MS2M. No hands? You guys all suck.

Oh right, Eri's not even in it there, that was Red Eye. Eh, whatever.



Paheal idea + Metal Slug sprites + Photoshop edits + Metal Gear Solid parody = ???...no, fuck that, PROFIT!



I'm especially proud of these because way back in First Mission Eri was so valued she was a fucking unlockable! Take that you Fio whores!\



They suck. That is all.



WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE

Now imagine that you're going about your usual business mowing down Eri clones and one of these buggers randomly runs by without even making any sort of effect except distracting you and getting you killed. That would be pretty awesome if you ask me.



YOU CAN'T RUN 40MPH FOREVER...WELL, OKAY, MAYBE YOU CAN

Too bad us players can't do that anymore, because I remember someone did that in Gunforce 2 and I was like, "Wait, really? You can do that?" Just don't sit around there for too long or you'll be run over by the train, or worse yet simply fall offscreen and die for no other real reason. Which isn't really that much worse, now that I think of it. In fact, it's practically questionable whether it's worse or no-MOVING ON...



I don't know about you, but I remember R-Type Leo having a very similar scene where you fight the bionic computer thingy called the "Major" which appears as a bubble thing like this. It even spawns little blobby things in the last phase of the fight which are extremely annoying. And it even blows away to reveal an escape route! Too bad the escape sequence isn't quite as crazy as MS3 though. But come on, that was ages ago. And the giant...um...jumping crabs with dicks are still decent midbosses.



I can just imagine "Fear of Approaching" by Go Sato playing here, because I was trying to achieve a similar environment to that massive fusion core that that space station had in Viper Phase 1. Complete with nodes firing machineguns and (not-so-hovering) tanks.

Sadly, that's all there is so far, and it has been that way for a while because I've been trying to figure out how to win Advance Wars without playing lucky lucky Tasha every damn time.

And luck isn't even part of her stats, which makes things even stranger. Especially when I win against that one NRA asshole with the shirt logo thing with so much ease the war ended in two days. And I beat his War Tank's ass in with like two infantrymen, to make it just that more absurd.

[Ngamer01]

I have to note the reason you may not be getting comments anymore is because you put so many animations in each post that even broadband chokes trying to load your thread.

I'm sitting near a max commit charge trying to load this page.

[Davy Jones]

mh, I have DSL and no problems with my internet connection.

Yeah, but I don't see what point there is in that, and I'm super-lazy and have a crapload of new material to post and stuff.

http://www.majhost.com/gallery/esreveR/R...cecrew.gif
No animation, just the background. I want to use it with a game maker, but the chars are interfering. If it's cutted together and you have no backup, it's also ok.

*saves shooting mechas*

Damn, what have I been thinking all this time? That's simple as heck! I'll get to it immedia-FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF *EPIC FIREFOX CRASH*

Dammit, it took me thirty minutes to start this thing up again! And I'm not even exaggerating! All my post data is gone too...boy, am I peeved...

Well, anyw *FIREFOX CRASHES AGAIN*

Okay, shit, this has got to be a fucking joke. Third time writing this over. I've wasted an hour of my life on this shit. Give me a break.



It would've been called "For the guy with the bitching Revy sig", but ImageShack decided to truncate it, much to my dismay.



Hey! Did you know nearly every Psikyo game has a sprite viewer? Hey! Did you also know I used it wrong for every one of these images? Also, holy shit, Reverse plays Space Bomber. I kid you not. I lead a sad, sad life indeed.



Wait a minute here! This is Strikers 1999, not Raiden Fighters Jet! In other news, Null is such a great ImageShack username...Hell no! What the fuck! Why am I named Null?



Look! It's possibly one of the cheapest units in Days of Ruin! Now in what I think is the Lazurian Army design in paint scheme (Boy, would it be embarrassing if it weren't...wait, is it?)! Mmm, Tasha...



Oh ho! Don't say I didn't warn you! Filthy Rubinelles! I'll kick all their asses! Especially Greyfield's, because he's the asshole who killed my innocent brother! And I'll even do it alone! Yes! Alone! With just this handgun and ten bombs! And these boots, mind you! I am totally not kidding! This is a personal score to settle, even if it's against over nine thousand mooks, too!



Interesting fact: If concept art is to be trusted, Eri is going to look quite a bit different in Metal Slug Zero than she is in the arcade games. As such I made this, and gave her dual machine guns as a nod to some deviantART guy who drew something similar. It was especially inconvenient because the MS0 site happened to cut out midway through the making of this. Furthermore, according to Enomosiki's translation, it appears it's not going to be up again anytime soon.











Hey you Metal Slug Wiki-goers! If you're still alive to read this, I'd like to hand you these images so you can use them for your weapons articles, if they even exist at all! No, really! I'm trying to be nice! ...Sheesh...do you guys even give me credit for all those boss pictures?



So I was obsessed with Tasha for a while, and then I got Garou: Mark of the Wolves...well, I don't know if this girl speaks Japanese or just really damn bad English, but regardless, Bonne Jenet is awesome, and I nearly forgot about Tasha. Of course, Jenny isn't the only good fighter out there. There's also King and Hikaru, who are both girls who dress as guys, which is awesome, and then of course Eri rules all of them. Also, this was as far as I got before the last crash, so yay?



A guy who changes his name so often I'm not even going to bother with requested animations of Ralf Jones, threatening that he would not care if I did not do so. Obviously, with that kind of collateral in mind, you know I got my ass onto this right away.



Gaia Crusaders is seriously awesome. I played two robotic being who were still organic enough to eat food and have reproductive organs, one of which is pretty pretty and pictured, and the other of which was a boss that had previously mopped the floor with me(!!), kicked the incredible hulk's ass, and shattered countless living furry statues. Killing guys wearing masks and looting said masks as they sprout legs and attempt to flee was pretty cool too.



More recently than not, a lad named Shinryu had annoyed the crap out of us over at MSDB. He was either an incredibly stupid noob or an incredibly clever troll, and ban requests were coming from pretty much everyfuckingone (And yet he's still not banned...more or less so we can laugh whenever he does post, but...). I decided to make my own better-looking renditions of the sprites he used in his incredibly lame comics, and get him raped by my awesome Gretel-with-Eri-programming-and-clothes wearing a strap-on. Go figure. Also, first Firefox crash checkpoint! I think I'm actually getting somewhere!



We all know who has the bouncing tits for SNK (Well, she wears red and has an infinite number of fans...both types of fans, mind you...), but Capcom only has Psylocke, who is unfortunately more associated with Marvel regardless. Whatever, both are pretty darn hawt. Though I ripped Psylocke only because I like Capcom's graphic style more for some reason. Oh, only if I could rip from CvS...bah. Actually, SNK has better animation, but...aw, screw it. I might blow my mind if I go on too long. Or at least lose your interest. Which has probably happened already.



Sengoku 3 may be Gaia Crusaders' spiritual sequel, but I kind of prefer Gaia Crusaders because I don't have to worry about destructible scenery and throw attacks aren't killing 99.9% of my combos. And don't get me started with the fact M-98S isn't there...regardless, though, Sengoku 3 has some pretty awesome stuff, like these bombs here. Look at that animation! It's beautiful!



Byakki's pretty awesome, being a boss who's eventually playable like Okuni (Who actually has bigger tits than even Mai, though I still prefer Kurenai myself...) and summoning badass demons like this. One question though, if I stick my dick in this one, is that skullfucking?



I think one of the things that annoys me a great deal about the original Shock Troopers is that the animation of many projectiles is too hard to see in order to admire - Take this Buster Shot for example. The thing's going so damn fast you can't admire it, especially because the animation plays this slow in the game. They could just speed up the animation, or something, dammit.



Explosions that emanate from the Hyper gun of the same game, which is way too powerful in my opinion. That and it also makes you wonder what kind of weapon fires shotgun-like blasts which explosions somehow emanate from. I mean, is that a shotgun, or a grenade launcher, or...?



I was indifferent about the change to pre-rendered graphics in the second game. Sure, pre-rendered graphics look a bit worse in general, but they make more sense for an overhead run-n-gun, and besides, Angel being rendered in any sort of graphical style makes it all worth it. However, I hate how they put some of the effects from the original game in this one, they don't work together at all. As such, I've ripped the 'normal' bomb-style explosion from the game and put it here, although ironically it's wielded by the girl who looks like a man, not the default character.



This wasn't ripped by me, but it was animated by me, so I guess it kinda works? It's the nuke from Faust's insta-kill attack in Guilty Gear.



And Justice, my favorite character from the game (Seriously, she (!!) is a giant mecha-lizard-thingamabob! What's awesomer than that?). I have no idea if I'm animating these correctly, nor what Justice is doing in that snazzy black palette, and I can't even remember the name of the guy who ripped these. Other than that the site they were from is awesome and apparently Russian!



More Garou ripping, this time the big ol' explosions Kevin makes in his super attacks. This took me way too long to rip. Just like how this post is taking me way too long to write.



Incredibly old, but still awesome, rips. These are the VA explosions from Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness.



Chun-Li's lightning kicks from Marvel Versus Capcom. I was asked to rip this animation from Street Fighter III, though I have yet to do so since I must obtain the CHD first. Besides, Marvel Versus Capcom provides more compatibility with other Capcom fighters, if you know what I mean.



Shoryuken not included, because let's face it, projectiles are the cheapest (And admittedly, most effective) tactic there is against an AI opponent.



These rips are back when I could get ToggleMAME to run Warzard correctly, but lately I have only been able to get my usual MAME to run Red Earth as an interim, and that took effort on its own. ToggleMAME's being stupid now, because it refuses to recognize a Warzard CHD directory sitting right in front of it. I hate command-line programs, dammit. On the left is Hydron, my favorite fighter boss character (If it were female I would fuck its brains out, even as it isn't, I wouldn't be afraid to cuddle with him...), and Blade, who is my third favorite (Fungus from Monster Maulers comes second, but that game is rather obscure and strange, so meh). Blade's pretty awesome, too, able to shoot random-effect projectiles made up of all the other bosses and shooting mirrors to suck you into and shatter with you inside for massive damage.



And Kenji' who's actually playable and a very badass ninja, really.



And as a ninja beetle, which would still be badass if it weren't for the fact this is a joke form intended to make you as vulnerable as possible.

AND HOLY SHIT I'M DONE THANK GOD I'M GOING TO BED NOW DAMMIT

[Cobalt Blue]

all those metal slug rips... reminds me when i wanted to make a working sprite of that mech in the original Metal Slug Gallery...

[esreveR]

Hey guys! Guess what? I'm posting even more sprites for you to view and possibly to lag your computer down as well!



ACTIVATE THE RUINS! Because your invasion of Earth may not fare well otherwise!



Interesting edits I made of the Ptole R-Shobu. I am especially proud of that last one, because it's much like one of them SNIPER CHOPPERS from Raiden!



Metamoqester is awesome...you fight crazy-ass monsters, turn into monsters yourself, and, as you can see here, there's a good bit of nudity of you choose that Yukihime girl! Sweet!



Clearly, however, the developers got their inspiration from Monster Maulers. Here's Fungus, who is currently tardposing as a taunt attack. He's still awesome though.



Gunner robots from the same game. These guys aren't bosses like the previous one, but they come in good numbers, so be careful.



And here's a "monster" from Metamoqester - A badass Nazi mecha with a hot officer chick inside. I'm totally not kidding you.



Hey look! CPS3 ripping is back! Unfortunately, I can't get toggleMAME to work still, so it'll take time to get real work done...Also, first JoJo rip!



V-Five/Grind Stormer is a pretty awesome game. Just about every Toaplan game is pretty awesome, actually. This projectile type, dropped only by one type of enemy in one very short section of one mission, is pretty cool, too. Although stationary most of the time, it will chase after you momentarily when 'damaged', so you need to shoot them to coax them into chasing you to one place (Since walls of them are dropped) and then avoid them entirely while going the other way. Very interesting.



It looks like a Geth. I must have sex with it.







Hey look! Big weapons! Now I just have to do the special ones...



MECHA THAT TRANSFORM INTO PLANES! Yeah, Hyper Duel is worth playing. Go get it.



In an era where chitin plates are bred using stem-cell research to make armor, some baddies in a war said, "Why not just use genetic engineering to make the whole damn thing?", and thus the Hell Golem model was born. After coming out of an artificial womb prematurely (And very angry as a result), this thing makes a tough final adversary as you descend through the atmosphere of some planet. This is the second form, which flies circles around you and slices you to pieces with a laser scythe. And shoots loads of chitin spikes, too.



Ah, Dimahoo! A rather enjoyable game. Here's one of those bomb fairies you come across when you get enough of those crystal things. Be sure to grab the bomb, of course. I pretty much ripped this solely because of the female nudity.



FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I hate this plane. Damn asshole in 19XX killed my carrier crew, blew me up a gazillion times, and nearly blew up the planet while he was at it. Hate. Hate hate hate.




Um, yeah. No one else made it, so I did.



An avatar for a forum I realized was completely dead shortly afterward. What a shame.



M-98S sure is hot.



I surely wouldn't have made it out of this alive without that full special bar. In other news, I posted this in MSDB's "Describe your 2009 in one picture" thread.



Kurenai is so much better than Okuni. Seriously. I'm ready to dodge your bricks.



More M-98S. I clearly have an obsession with her.



Rob, who is effectively a male version of whatever the heck M-98S is.



Lots...



...And...



...Lots...



...Of...



...Video game...



...Mugshots. I don't know, I was bored and wanted to rip SOMETHING.



I got the blue screen of death and lost the PSD to this. Now I have to rip it again.



You know how the Brits named their early jet fighters after mythological creatures, like Vixen and Vampire and Goblin and such? Well, this one's named Gargoyle as a reference to that. I think it's a pretty awesome plane.



A new supersonic low-altitude missile, designed to fly under enemy radar in order to drop nuclear warheads over targets. It's powered by two rocket boosters and a nuclear scramjet, so when the scramjet fires up it can fry pretty much everything it flies over. Not to mention the sound would blast eardrums and the sonic boom alone would flatten houses.



Ivo said it looked like the Horton Ho IX, so I made that too.

And lastly, come visit the fabulous Republic of Whats-Its-Name! Because personal freedom is win.

[Gors]

Saw the first three rips, then quitted seeing the rest.

It's hard to criticize a ripper (since you don't have to worry about pillowshade and such; you just need to capture them so everyone can use), but I gotta say you're bad at making posts.

Really, it's nice to see your work, and they're well done. But you post a ludicrous amount of them, which lags my computer like there's no tomorrow and I don't have patience to see every single sprite you've ripped (Principally those animated mugshots. Waiting different faces to appear is boring). I suggest using less animated gifs and more static pngs for them, so people can see any character at any time.

And those lists are not useful and only helps polluting your post. Come on, who'd want to know that you're into organic suits and Eri Kasamoto in a effin' SPRITE DISCUSSION topic?

I'd like to see your work, not an animated page-stretcher, please.

[Cobalt Blue]

it really got old and pushed people away when you started to believe people cared about you being somehow obssesed by pixeled tits.

you're a great ripper but ugh, really, there is a place for general discussion and a place for artwork.

[esreveR]

All I can say is that update this page sporadically, unlike at MSDB, and there my sprite thread is pretty much my blog (General discussion topics turn into shitholes in five minutes, and weird stuff like that only brings more people). Also, it's kind of contradictory that this place has a higher priority and yet I don't update it as often, so I should change my thinking. I thought what I was doing would work, but it didn't, so I'll shut up about that.

Also, yeah, I'm weird. It's kind of a given. The MSDB community is clearly different than here.

Also, edited the last post. I'll, uh, keep that stuff on MSDB only.

Edit: These enemies from Sengoku 3 are rather cool.



They actually turn into skeletons before attacking you, only to grow their flesh again or whatever. Cool effects.

Edit again: This is funny.



I initially started out trying to make a mobile version of the Iron Iso tank, and then I realized that by moving the turret forward a ways I'd get something like the original concept for the thing (Which looked a lot like a Jagdpanther by the way). I like it.

Edit: Dammit, I swear I lose like a quarter of my work to system crashes or something. The previous two images' PSDs are gone (Sadly), so I'm going to have to do them over. Also, all my Chrome tabs are lost, so that's a pain too.

In other news, having spent pretty much the entire day being grounded and re-organizing my saved pictures folder to weed out repeats and erase as many useless ones as I possibly can to free up hard drive space. All these things make me want my M11X to come more and more.



That giant blobby thing in Kingdom Grandprix was pretty awesome, but this monster (Which is a giant spider with rocket launchers!) simply blows it out of the water. Apparently there's a shitload of unused sprites with it too, but I haven't ripped them. Stuff found in the tiles include a different type of baby spider (Likely they would've given her weapons instead of the usual shooting kind) and various baddies you faced in the level (Drill beetles, Beholders, etc.) stuck in her webs and dead or dying. Weird. I wonder how much else is unused in there.

Sorry about the really weird pixelation, CPS2 games all too often have really strange pixel aspect ratios so I tried to account for that and it didn't come out perfectly.

[Blazefirelp]

You are one incredeble Animator. I really enjoy looking at them. I could look at them for hours on end, Provided they are new. Realistic Special Effects Animted FTW!

[esreveR]

Super Demolish Walker R,
"DRIBLING-R"
has appeared!

I didn't even bother to check this thing's tiles, so I have no clue what may be unused there.

[Gors]

wow, this thing is huge :o isn't it difficult to rip something like that? I mean, I have trouble even when I rip SNES graphics...

[esreveR]

wow, this thing is huge :o isn't it difficult to rip something like that? I mean, I have trouble even when I rip SNES graphics...

Two words: Kawaks shot factory.

...Okay, that's three. Fine. But yeah, as long as it's a CPS1/CPS2/NeoGeo game I can rip just about anything from it. I could probably rip from the CPS3 if I could get that stupid ToggleMAME build to work, but it still will not recognize a completely legit (Okay, kind of legit) Warzard .CHD. It's driving me bonkers because I know I've gotten it to work before.

Also I made flags and logos for the Rebel Army and Gobligan Empire in vector art, and chances are that's not the end, but I am not posting them until I've got a whole lot of them just sitting around. Not to mention, making vectors in Photoshop is kind of a no-no (Illustrator is wayyy better, too bad I dun have it).

Oh, I nearly forgot these silly Goblin-filled grandstands...



Edit: Commander Evil told me to make a Technical, so...



...Well, I kinda did, but the AA turret didn't have any good Rebel sprites to go with it so why not just bolt on one of these? Okay, so it looks awkward. Whatever.

[Cobalt Blue]

it looks more like the truck was parked in front of it.

[esreveR]

it looks more like the truck was parked in front of it.

I would have made it bob with the truck but for some reason objects on the truck's bed never seem to bob either. Weird.



Um, yeah.
