Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Sagat W.I.P.

[Sir Ghostler]

I'm currently working on sprites and I'm making quite some progress.

Thanks to Alex Sinigaglia for helping me with shading the standing hard kick sprite, he did a really good job. I slightly edited it also.
New:


Old:


I've looked at the edit Alex made and used it as a reference when shading other similar sprites such this Standing Light Kick sprite:



I'm also working on the walking animation again. After chuchoryu worked on the shading and added a fifth frame to the anim, I've been editing the sprites to make them look less like SFA and more original.

[Alex S.]

I've checked the CVS2 Morrigan sprites (I think Drex made them) and compared them to Armentis' SF3 Morrigan sprite:

 

With CPS3 sprites (SF3 sprites), a respective character's sprites are bigger than their CPS2 (Alpha 3, Darkstalkers, MVC) counterparts.

So, I'd have to rescale the sprites, clean them up and add new colors and more detail, and like I said, I'm not really a spriter.

 

With Kratos, it wouldn't be as difficult to make a sprite set for him as most of his sprites would be edited from Urien.

 

I probably will start a SF3 Seth W.I.P. but I just don't know when, and that's after I get chuchoryu's permission to use his SF3 Seth sprites. And then, I don't know when all of SF3 M. Bison's sprites will be finished so I could have some spare time after finishing Sagat.

 

I'm mainly focusing on making SF3 characters that I really like or that I really like the idea of them being in SF3 style and Morrigan isn't on that list.

Those CvS sprite were made by Li-Kun, and only that SF3 stance is "finished" (no, it's not) by Armentis.

That scaling, for how accurate or not it can be, doesn't take into account that there was a change of spriters/artists for each game. So Hulk would probably be different from that.

 

I am one of those guys (sorry Werewood) that wants to suggest you to work on one character at a time, if not you end up like Chuchoryu. I hope you do not go the Chuchoryu route.

 

Is there someone going to make SF3 Vega/M.Bison? From the poll he (Ink) made in MFG it seems he's going to make Demitri.

I've decided. SF3 Seth and SF3 Kratos can wait. I'm just going to focus on one character at a time. I might have a side project to work on when I get bored of just working on SF3 characters but it wouldn't receive as much attention. I also intend to take feedback and criticism that each released character gets and improve them based on that feedback.

 

chuchoryu said he would sprite a SF3 M. Bison, SF3 Vega (Claw) and SF3 Balrog in order for me to code all of them. I've also told him that I'm working on each SF3 character one at a time.

[Sir Ghostler]

So, I've edited the walk anim.

Old Version before chuchoryu edited and added the 5th frame:


Chuchoryu's edit:


New Version I made, without the 5th frame to make it easier to compare to the original:


I edited the legs, changed the shading a little bit, some of the detailing and the shape of them. Please give me feedback on the anim so I can try to improve it more. Have I improved it at all?

[Sir Ghostler]

I'm working on the new face shading for Sagat. It should look better than the old shading.

[Sir Ghostler]

ink from Mugen Fighters Guild has begun spriting a SF3 styled Demitri semi-based off of this sprite:

Demitri is added to my SF3 W.I.P. list. He will be worked on the moment all of his sprites are finished.

[Sir Ghostler]

 

Sagat's new Standing Medium/Hard Punch animation! Please give feedback and criticism.

[Trinitronity]

Hmm...the punching arm looks kindy shaky to me, as if the arm uses the wrong axis for a second.

[Alex S.]

Walt and I are fixing it. :)

Who else is in your SF3 W.I.P. list?

[Sir Ghostler]

Who else is in your SF3 W.I.P. list?

 

Confirmed SF3 W.I.P.s are Sagat, M. Bison, Balrog, Vega and Demitri.

 

Maybe SF3 W.I.P.s are Kratos*, Seth, Blanka, Gouken and Oni*. (*The sprites for these chars do not exist yet)

 

Big thanks to Walt and Alex for improving Sagat's Standing Hard/Medium Punch.

[Sir Ghostler]

Working on new shading for Sagat. As he now has four secondary/purple shading colors, all sprites will need to be edited over again.

[Sir Ghostler]

Big thanks to Alex for making me some stunning, fantastic, absolutely gorgeous palettes for Sagat.









Thank you again Alex.

I've nearly finished adding the new shading to all existing sprites and I've added walt and Alex's new Standing Hard Punch sprite into the .sff file and finished the animation.

[Sir Ghostler]

Big thanks to GarchompMatt who also made some fricken' awesome palettes for Sagat.

 

Sorta kinda almost SSFIV colour 9


Real men wear pink


Foxer shorts

 

Thanks again Matt.

 

I'm adding them into the char now.

[Sir Ghostler]

Big thanks to Shao_kun. He made a wicked CVS styled palette for Sagat.

 

 

Thanks again Shao!

 

The pal has been added into the char. For anyone else who would like to contribute a palette, here is an indexed image with the default palette:

 

 

While I'd prefer SF3 style palettes, any style palette is accepted.

So many pals.....

You gona add the Pals Selector as Rajaa did?

[Sir Ghostler]

So many pals.....

You gona add the Pals Selector as Rajaa did?

 

The Palette Selector is already coded into the char.

[Sir Ghostler]

Big thanks to Flowrellik for making me 14 excellent 3rd Strike Styled pals.

Jab: SFII(Default)

Strong: Pepper Rage

Fierce: Ryu's Swimtrunks

Short: The Good Old Days at Fighting St.(Sf1)

Forward: Tropical Fiesta

Roundhouse: Seabound Training

Start+Jab: Alpha Zero (His SF Alpha/CVS days)

Start+Strong: Inverse Tiger

Start+Fierce: Jade Thai

Start+Short: Chinese New Year

Start+Forward: Eye of the Tiger: Fist of the Dragon

Start+Roundhouse: Chaos Mirror (Svc Chaos Mirror color)

Secret 3P: Kain

Secret-II 2K: MB-02

My favorites would be the SF1 and SVC Mirror pals.

Thanks again bro. :)

[Sir Ghostler]

I've been making steady progress on the sprites. While the new face shading is almost done, the forth secondary color shade is implemented in around 50% of the sprites. I've also been adding more frames to some of the Jumping Normals.

With the palettes, there are over 20 of them. I have them all sorted by who made them in the char's palette folder. While a random assortment of pals will be pre-installed in the char when downloaded, they can be easily swiched out for others with the use of FF3.

[DJ HANNIBALROYCE]

fist of the dragon and kain looks SICK!

[Sir Ghostler]

New anim for Tiger Hook.

Chucho's old ver:

My new ver:

It ain't finished yet but I wanted to show some progress on it. Feedback and critisism would be appreciated to help improve it more before it's finished.

[Sir Ghostler]

Big thanks to H Mr. Tron! for making two good palettes!

Jade Trunks

Bold Default

Thanks again Mr. Tron. :)

I'm still working on the Tiger Hook animation. I'm trying to make it more fluid as well as fixing the shading.

[Sir Ghostler]

Alright, a good chunk of news.

I've almost finished all of the normal attacks. They just need to be slightly adjusted. So far, the hitsparks, hit boxes, sounds and power gained have been set.

I've decided to add in Tiger Knee as the Close Standing Strong Kick attack instead of a unique attack.

Some screenshots:

I'm having trouble with the Tiger Hook animation so I'm leaving it for now. I'm focused on the finishing the normals and moving on to the throws. There probably won't be any major news for a little while.

[Sir Ghostler]

Thanks again to Shao_kun as he made three more CVS pals for Sagat.





Also, one new screenshot:

[Sir Ghostler]

Added a SF4 Japanese voicepack to go with the others.
