Failed Project

I've a plan to create my own MOD, but it seems I've failed so I decide to abandon my MOD

Please forgive me cm_blast, I can't become a great modder like you.

However, if you want to watch my failed project, you can watch it here :

And you give up after one fail? You can give you a second chance, a third one and even more. I don't think the other modders succeeded in a good mod at the first try.

About the video, the background is good but a little blur and without animation or parallax scrolling (maybe the next step?). The music is from Shinobi 3?

Thanks for your advice Vince. Actually, it was based on Sega Genesis game called "Mystical Fighter", the beat em up games but not so popular unlike Streets of Rage and Golden Axe.

Yes, I ripped the background from that game but I don't know why my background got a blur like that. Beside, I don't know if the usage of "lock camera" is limited so that's why I canceling my project (in original game, the camera will lock everytime you encounter an enemy)

I want to become a great modder like cm_blast (always making a mod based on another games) but it seems I failed

hello, keep doing your mod. I did not know anything at all to make my mod. But then gradually year after year I achieved certain successes. Only by long work it is comprehended. It was especially insulting that you work so hard, and people do not speak well for your work. But we must not stop, but move forward. Don Vekta correctly once told me that you need to create one good mod and constantly improve it. Do not jump from one topic to another, and doing so far will not be ideal. These are good words.

I am very glad that I am in this forum, I learned a lot. I also understood my mistakes. The most important thing to understand is that graphics in fashion should be only 16 bits. This is all beauty.

The blur it's because you can't have pure black on an scene.

You can avoid that (if using photoshop) by painting all the black area "0 Red, 0 Green, 0 Blue" to "1, 1, 1" (or 1,0,0 or whatever) which it's still black to the human eyes and works for the game. At least on photoshop there is a option to paint any pixel from one colour "0,0,0" to "1,1,1" even if they are not connected, so it's something easy to fix.

in original game, the camera will lock everytime you encounter an enemy

As my simpsons mod, the origianl game locks the camera if more than 2 enemies are present, but here on sorr you can't do that, so I just choose my own moment to lock the camera.

I recommend you to play my "Un nuevo jefe", mini mod "terminator", "Dune", "el día de todo al revés" mods; those are my firsts mods ever made, you can see lots of bad stuff, layers missings, no animations for the backgrounds, images distorted, blur on some areas... just play those of my early works to know how was I at the beginning.

Doing something good takes time; and read lots of tutorials around here.

Ps: By the way, I am not the only modder that creates based on original games, like the Vendetta, both turtles arcade game Golden Rage and more. Even the original Streets of Rage, check those to learn stuff.

Thank you all for your support, especially you cm_blast

Maybe I will try your advice later. If I can fix those problem, probably I will resume my project

I think you should just spend much more time with your own mod and watching tutorial videos about how to contribute stages scenes in the Maker Mod exactly?! In this failed project the background at stage1-1 is very blurry and does not contain any layers only the Scroller which is not a good move...
Ask my parther SoulFireBlaze to help you out I am sure he will do so, but you must understand that in order to make a ,,nice mod,, you have to be very patient and spend lot of time on computer!
Good luck and do not give up!

Before I started making my mod with "sonic" I've never done anything in any graphic programs, my first level was ugly, pixelated, very bad ripped from the original game, almost every level was poorly done.
But after the release of the first version, I thought I could do it better, that's why I started doing the second version.
I'm still not so good at it, but it's definitely better than it was.
The most important thing is do not give up and give yourself a time.

Thanks for your support all. However, I've decided to keep abandoning this project because I found so many problems like ripping background / foreground layer, looping music, make a right path or hole, etc

This is the best I can do. You can watch my new video in here :

Note : For some reason, my video has no sound at all if you're watching it on PC. However, if you watch it on your Mobile Phone, everything seems normal @_@
