Final Fight

First topic message reminder :

I am James Shain and I made a really crappy addon called the final fight a few years ago and I thought it stunk so I've remade the addon. I'm looking for testers. this is my first real addon so any help would be nice.

Sorry for yet another update for Final Fight, but all the new blue walls (made by WLHack) have now been added. This version is the same as ffnew3a.zip mentioned earlier today (a few posts ago) but with the new blue walls included.

Here's 2 screenshots from ReadThis.

here are 2 sets of unlocked doors. they may both be used but we haven't decided yet.


here is the new look for the ReadThis! section of the addon:

Great stuff! I really like that chaingun >_<

I really hope its fast paced and the music is good
ill play Final Fight today.

you guys might check out the final fight story in the epic poem section. people are saying that I wrote a great story.

as of right now the story for the addon is finished(written by me) and is being added to the readthis! section. the story has been updated in the final fight story thread. the first post now contains the whole story.

BIG UPDATE:
ok folks. I've written the rest of the story so now the endart text is being added. also to note is that we are thinking of a release date for early august but that could change. levels guide is also done and the epiodes should now have the right names.

The helpart and all endarts are now done, also new episode names. Please note also some minor changes to some episode 1 levels.

well lilmanjs, i got a thing to point out on your mod.
on espode 1 level 9, where the end espode thing is, when you step on it, it makes you go north, not towards the night sky. so consider moving the level so youactually move toward the night sky.
secound, the secret to leave the level has 3secrets for 1 walls. you only need 1 secret. creating more causes the player to be unable to get 100 percent secrets.
lastly, i suggest you put in inside the credits all of the peopel that helped, like brian.

I'm listed in the ReadThis credits as Schabbs. But yes, the credits document file hasn't been updated yet.

I have fixed the night sky thingy and taken the extra secrets out. Also updated the credits in both helpart and the doc file. A new zip has been posted (same filename as the one posted yesterday).

well who here is waiting for the addon to be finished? also if you know people that play wolf3d addons, and/or a member of another wolf3d board could you guys try to spread the word on this addon?
thanks,
James

Definetely a nice and fun mod.
Especially love the music score, so 80s-early 90s....remind me all the old dos/nintendo classics at once..what a nostalgy.
Just gets you the mood to keep running and shooting as hell

well wouldn't you like to know that the music comes from various mega man games(mega man 8 is what most of the music is, and various mega man x series games) also the music comes from a boss battle in sphyon filter 2 and a really old pc game that I love and still have, jill of the jungle. I'm glad you like this addon. it will only get better as it nears completion.

It's great indeed
I didn't play the many megaman games (tried them all, but they are just oo hard - too challenging games, I get killed really fast).
Still, I care less about the game music is from, and if I can recognize the specific game it was taken from, it can be megaman, street fighter II...whatever...
But it's easy to recognize the 80s-early 90 style of the music, and that what brings all the nostalgy of the old 2d platformers

that's true. well I hope you keep playing this addon and I hope you like the final version.

Brian has posted about FF twice in the wolf3d dome news.

HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS PEOPLE!(if you are wearing hats) the new elevators have been worth the wait.

what do you guys think of the new elevators?

Looks great! WLHack ist da leet! wish I could have his talent or at least his help speaking of help errr.. I don't know if I can even ask of you the help after all I don't think we had the chance to talk and stuff but do you think you can help me with some graphics too? (and for those who didn't realized I ask that of WLHack) I just need some help with the mac graphics, I just thought you wont have any problem helping me with those because 1. you are very skilled and 2. They only have like 12 sprites which is not too much of work (that's only my opinion) so if you can help me I would really appreciate it (REALLY REALLY! ) just PM me here or at the DHW forums, I'm Etzem btw, or you can just call me Razi (shortcut to Raziel)

Raziel A.
Totenkopf Soft. ;]

a sad update:
well there is a problem with the numbers and they don't fit where they should which sucks so either the numbers will have to be redone or the status bar will have to be redone. a good thing is that the elevators work and look nice.

hi whlkac.
nuff said. (sorry no pressure)

Latest update on the status bar problem is that Toni has fixed it.

Some minor mapping changes have been made to e1m1 and e1m2, and a few new sounds added (Doors/huge gun etc).

This is all in the latest version at http://www.belowe.com/ffnew3f.zip

stained glass replacement:


Grey Stone Eagle Replacement:


so what do you guys think of the new stuff?

i like the stained glass for some apperent reason. :3

so the time that the final fight will be released draws nearer. sometime next month we think it will be released.

I am pretty much done with the e6 edits, but am testing them on all skill levels now, which takes some time. I'll send them to Brian, unless more stuff gets added to the game in the interim.

here is the download link once again for the music pack that I made. on the dome there should be a plugin that you can download for winamp that will allow you to play the imf files.

Here's the latest Final Fight update. This time, ack's levels - episode 6 - have been revised.

http://www.belowe.com/ffnew3f.zip .

so right now all that is needed is the files to get the new look for the readthis! section, the rest of the brown weave walls,purple weave walls and the title screen.
so what do you guys think of the addon in its current state?

going fast. next time ill play ff is when the final comes out though... been very busy making maps for the mmorpg and smielys war.

I've just posted another Final Fight zip. It has the following changes since the last one:

I have been playing this mod for the past few weeks off and on and it is a very enjoyable game. The last two eps were run through first due to knowing the mapper then I worked up to one. I must say that the mapper of episodes 1-4 did a fine job. This mod has renewed my interest in playing again. thank you.

Welcome to the forums, Barbara. I'm pleased you like the mod. The first episode was done mainly by James but I modified most levels.

Episodes 2 thru 5 were originally creator levels but I have since heavily modified them. Some are completely new.

Episode 6 were originally creator levels too but have since been heavily modified by ack. The Boss level is completely new.

Most of the new graphics were supplied by Toni and the music was added by James. Title screen is still to be done.

Anyways, the final version should hopefully be done within a month.

some big news: ack has made the last level edits. so now all that is needed is the new title screen and to finalize the credits.
