256-color views for SCI1.1 - a modest proposal of sorts

Can't reach imgur at this time, so I'll just use attachments.

Let it be known that diagonal walkcycles are hard.

Really hard.

Like holy shit guys.

Edit: but dammit I persevere!

[troflip]

Thank you for persevering!

It's looking good... the only adjustment I think it needs is the background arm/hand doesn't swing forward enough.

[MusicallyInspired]

Wonderful work!

[Kawa]

Diagonals are the worst.

Looks like front bit of his body has gone through a meat slicer. That's quite a straight edge!
Maybe a little background arm too?

Like I said, the worst. But then, how many revisions have the other directions gone through, hmm?

[troflip]

All the more need for this view, then..

[MusicallyInspired]

Yeah, needs a left arm there. Has referencing Sierra's diagonal views helped at all?

[Kawa]

I'd like to mention that I've put a conversion of the DeluxePaint Comic font in the stash (check my sig) to appease the Viewlords while I'm still gathering my courage to improve that goddamn diagonal.

Not really I'm afraid.

Quick experiment in alternatives: using SQ1 Roger as a base, who seems to have the least swagger -- just a bit too much chest if you ask me.

[MusicallyInspired]

That looks good!

[Kawa]

That looks good!

Fairy wall, then. I'll do the diagonals next, just to get that bullshit behind me.

Pokaaan~

Sorry 'bout the delay, guv.


bonus: in Main.sc SetUpEgo, instead of

Code: [Select]

  (send gEgo:
    setLoop(-1)
    setLoop(stopGroop)
    setPri(-1)
    setMotion(NULL)
    state(| (send gEgo:state) $0002)
  )do

Code: [Select]

  (send gEgo:
    setLoop(-1)
    setLoop(Grooper) //These two lines allow the "standing" loop.
    setCycle(Smopper -1)
    setPri(-1)
    setMotion(NULL)
    setScale() //Reset leftover scaling effects
    scaleX(120)
    scaleY(120)
    state(| (send gEgo:state) $0002)
  )

Huzzah! Looks great! Into the template game it goes...

(only thing, the first loop, he looks a little... bouncing back and forth. he's got some mad swagger)

Would be nice to have a female character too... ;-)
