Needs sexy clouds n thunder n lightening
bats would be sick but they are hard to find (prob would have to make em by hand)
leaves can work
Purple flames? I expected white for some reason. Maybe white with a slight purple hue or glow?
I think diss used Squirlz to animate the aurora
Rain I guess?

I want to use sexy flame animations, not Particle Illusion flames. I'll try looking for stock footage.

Watta wrote:I think Diss made that aurora with squirlz, but that's just me guessing though lol.

Yep, he used Squirlz.

Watta wrote:Ghost idea sounds kewl, I don't think we would need leaves falling since it's already so dark :Fudgeyes: 

Leaves blowing from left to right to give out a creepy effect.

Yes, you know what to do next, Gen. :PunkSmirk: 

Genesis wrote:bats would be sick but they are hard to find (prob would have to make em by hand)

I'll try too look for some in my OMK sprite rips folder. I think i've seen some there. If there aren't then I guess we have no choice.

I honestly don't know what it's suppose to look like. Maybe you guys could do some research on that? The only anime (that I remember right now) that has those spirit flame balls is Shaman King, and even knowing that, I still don't remember how they looked there.

To be honest, i'm starting to dislike rain in stages. It's so overused.

Yeah, I don't like the rain, but we could still keep the lightning and shit to give it that "storm's brewing" feel to it with leaving flying.

This might be my chance to shine with BGCtrls :Shieet: 

Too bad, i'll be the one to code the BGCTRLs this time. :batface: 

Spoiler:

So it's settled, we'll be collaborating on this stage. We'll be known as Wattapachenesis.

Wattapachenesis


Amen  

Lmao

Well what isn't overused? Snow?
Fog = Overused
Fire = Overused
Water = Overused
Rain = Overused
Leaves = Overused
Sun = Overused
Moon = Overused
Trees = Overused
Clouds = Overused
Air = Overused
Colors = Overused

Well dude, c'mon, think about it. In all seriousness, rain is such an overused stage element.









Well, maybe a few rain droplets won't hurt.

You know what isn't overused?

Spoiler:

But seriously, I agree thatt rain would look ok.

A rain transition can't hurt at least

You know what we could do that's NOT overused? A hydra.

We need a hydra. If ya get what I mean Mark :Sponge: 

Spoiler:

Mark should make Kitsune spirits (a la Unknown's death in TTT2)

Perhaps we should implement the easy stuff first THEN think about other shit. I'm saying this because over thinking usually makes us lose motivation (which is exactly why I haven't released anything in months).

I expected Mark to say no (on the count of who the hell even knows how to make that?)

I was waiting for you to say "I'll make that with AE" but I guess that idea's scrapped now.




What do you think should I do, upload the PSD then give you the base stage, or give the base stage first then the PSD? There's a difference between the two since the PSD will take some time to upload unlike the base stage.

Uh, I'll look into it, but no promises

Your call. You could do both THEN give us the base and psd.

lol You know what, i'll just finish up the base stage THEN upload that and the PSD at the same time.




So you guys, what's the plan? What's gonna be happening in the stage while the players are fighting?

Hmm ghost dudes appearing and disappearing i guess?
Occasional leaves blow by
i assume some clouds moving
Maybe we can find a way to make some wind sprites? when the wind kicks in some leaves will roll by quick?

- Leaves rolling? LOL That's where you guys come in. I hate BGCTRLS. It makes me lazier for some reason. Or maybe we can go the easy path and animate them using a video editing program? Oh yeah, the leaf sprites, maybe we can use the petals from Watta's Tengoku no Hana stage.

- As for the thunder, I was trying to make the flash sprites on the shrine, but they look horrible. It's incredibly hard on this particular sprite.

- A little drizzle of rain does look good.

- I've only found 2 particular places for each ghost where they can appear and reappear. There are 3 ghosts by the way.

- As for the flame ball sprites, maybe we can just use the flames that Iori's holding in one of his supers? We can borrow the one in Quickfist's Iori, sprites by Froz. (But of course, if you guys don't like the idea of the ghost flames, then it can be scrapped. You guys'll be the ones to make the call if that's alright.)



I really want to add more stuff in this stage, but I can't think of any.  
Oh yeah, should we add a transition from day to night?

Nah man, no transitions. It would take forever to do it properly and we would end up scrapping it.

For the leaves, I agree. Just take my ones and recolor them.

Ghosts idea sound cool, and so does the light drizzle of rain.

Yo I've had this idea for a interesting thing for the stage. We could add that pulse animation made with camtasia you did on Mothercore with some scary as shit ghosts photo and make it appear every now and then.


I say upload which ever one gets the stage in our hands faster tbh. Your choice really :)

LOL I can do it, all I need is tome ... oh wait, I don't have that kind of luxury.

Could you elaborate it a little more? I'm having a hard time imagining it.

why not do it like how Margatroid does it and make it go from all beautiful, then with a bolt of lighting or flash go all evil and shit. or not.

Spoiler:

Good luck on this guys.

You see, Margatroid does that because he makes his stages source accurate (Those transitions happen from the source game, OMK.) and for me, I don't really like that kind of transition.










I also hate OMK.

Ahh I see, do you're thing bro.

I've never played it, doesn't really catch my attention.

Like everything goes normal. Then the stage goes black for a couple of seconds, and then boom with that pulse animation of the scary picture.

Dude, I honestly can't picture what you're saying. :Cosby: 



How about this, I give you the stage, you make that thing that you're saying. I can't do something that I can't imagine.
