Thanks for your comments!


@Doj: "The arm of the end of sheet looks too small"
Yeah, I think too. I gonna fix it, thanks.
Sure, the clothes need more details, I'll do it in version 2. For now, I want to go fast


@Whaat & bashscrazy
Please, be patient ^^ Right punch is coming soon (running punch is the right one).
As I said, special moves are based on the right punch.


========:MOVELIST:=======
(I will modify it with your ideas and tips)




D>A: Super ranged right jab (like Bat)

DVA+AA...: Random strong right punches (like Deep's DVA)

D^A: Super (dragon's) right uppercut

DVJ: Pressure gloves (like Henry's palm, Matt claps his gloves together and produces a short-ranged pressure wave surrounding him: Useful when you want enemies go backward)

D>J: Bulldozer jabs (running forward throwing punches: left, right, left, right, left ...)

DJA: Matt EX mode (without gloves, without helmet, without shirt: faster & stronger)

D: Avoid an attack (sidestep)


As you can see ... It still remains a lot of work!!!

Good morning everyone,

Finally, I made him move.

STANDING


WALKING (like a boxer)


RUNNING (like a weird one)


Well ... as a boxer doesn't run, I didn't know how to do it. Plus, I didn't want him to wiggle his arms as the runners typically do. With gloves, this seems weird
That's why I did it like this.
I'll make the arms and shoulders move a little up and down, but right now i don't know how.

Now, i'm dealing with the jump, running attack, and jump running attack.
As a boxer ( noble art) doesn't run or jump ... It will be difficult to do something realistic, so i'm planning on a funny jump running attack.
I really need your opinion and ideas for those moves.

I hope you like it,

C ya!!

First: Nice D:
Second: Well you could make him boost a little as running? That would be boxer styled? But well, as long as the game is LF2, i think you should stick with the one you made.
Third: He doesn't have to jump at all, it can be fixd from data, so maybe his dash (running+jump) attack could be somekinda boost + punch, but different from running attack?

AWESOME Idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The problem is dash attack is very important in LFE. With it you can hit your opponent from an upper or lower position

dash attack (Click to View)

You know what I mean?

HIM
Î
\________You

So if i replace it, I have to do it with something equivalent...
And jumping is very important to escape...

It may be difficult but i will try! (Your idea is awesome!)

Second: Well you could make him boost a little as running?

I don't understand... You want him to run faster or to do a quick move forward? (teleportation like)

I guess i get what you mean, but i think it's not a big problem, he can use his arm to punch upwards to reach jumping/dashing enemies also if you add somekinda special effect (i know it's not realistic/boxer like, but this still is LF2), it will be even easier.
Example:

Smthing like that :/

Quick move forward (not like teleport, but still fast). It's smthing between dash and running, it's hard to tell D: and too lazy to sprite :3
E: You could explain it like this:
It's dash (run+jump) without the running, you can do it from standing.

On the other hand.. boxing just a fighting SPORT, where people fight in a small RING. Which means that in a reallife situation, he might just as well jump or dash to escape, it is not as if boxers can't jump. Feet positions and steps are very important in boxing. So please don't leave the feet out completely. But you could make the jumps and dashes a little less effective than for the normal lf2 characters.

Boxers work with counter attacks a lot. Some ideas other than combos:
- a speed dodge mode that can dodge normal punches and kicks? Set the bdy so that hits can only be landed under his belly button and make the sprites so that it looks like he's dodging all the rest. Press A to strike. Most balls and some moves will still be able to hit the lower body.
- a mode that makes him about to walk while defending. Not sure how to make this though.

Oh yeah, the right arm is the perfect position, while the left arm seems to be a little bit too much away from his head.
Running, why aren't the arms moving, is he afraid to lose these gloves? :P

i suggest making jump a dodge move.
you know steve fox from tekken? make him dodge like that.
basically means:
jump=dash to the side+duck
plus attack=dash back and hit the opponent
instead of running he could also dash forward/backwards, though that may seem a bit unrealistic for a boxer (idk honestly)
since he wouldnt really need defend then, defend could be a little "upwards look"-state where he stays in one frame for a moment + attack or other key combinations make him punch upwards etc.

so this char would have pretty alternate controls (and would probably fail without hex-ai )

I know what you mean, and both of whaat and you are right.

Replace the jump by a dodge movement (basically I wanted the "D" to be a dodge move, but with J is better) and the normal >>JA by some kind of special boxing move.

But I think it will be hard ... I need to start DC in orden to really understand what I'm dealing with ...

@Neocrypt: I don't like the ideas of "Modes", you have to switch on and switch off... I don't like that kind of gameplay.
About the standing position: this is a type of on-guard position, the left hand away from the head, so you will punch your opponent faster and your hand is in his way to hit your head, so you can block attacsk easier. (and looks cool to me)
And for the running position: I don't know ^_^ that's a kind of protection (I have to do it better that's right)... and Moving his arms like a normal runner smees weird with gloves XD

I just want to say I like the current animations a lot ~ Marshall
