...And I'm now done with all of the drive moves (at least the launching animation). I updated my post on page 13, so go follow that link and download the new folder.

If you're going to do the drive section, then do you want me to make more like that? Do you want me to shorten the chain a little more? I can easily get it done in about an hour, now that I have all of the shapes and sprites I need.

Well, Zeron's already gone to bed, but just in case you wanted to see, ZR, here's my 5D with effects image: http://www.mediafire.com/i/?6pe5td9nlk6kvkd I had to fabricate the portal bit myself, hence the long waiting time.

Do you want me to work on that first instead of the astral? I'll make a sample and show you, but again, it'll take just a little bit. EDIT: nevermind, here's the astral (without any snake heads, tell me if you want otherwise): http://www.mediafire.com/i/?149g457c6oagcew

@shtkn: I just used layer opacity in photoshop. The opacity was around 60-65% each time. As for the placement, I just used the frame data hitboxes to guide me. I don't have Jin's sprites, though, so I wouldn't know what to do for him :/ @Zeron: here are the two Mizuchi edits I have, the astral one is going to take a while. ver 1 (laughing): http://www.mediafire.com/i/?1972781d4449m85 ver 2 (hit): http://www.mediafire.com/i/?ib3h36um2gq17cd

@KayEff: That can be changed in paint, so that's not much of an issue. Zeron, do you want the chains to appear around Hazama for the Astral pic? Also, what part of Mizuchi do you want me to pair with an effect (e.g. the start-up or the flashy stuff after it connects)?

Oh, yeah, yeah, just give me a second. EDIT: here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/i/?6if0y1tmyriiz14

...If you're interested I have this collection of Hazama's moves with effects. Some of the moves don't get justice with just the sprite alone, so I did some work in photoshop to combine the move with it's respective effect. Some of the moves have multiple choices so just use whichever one you like.

@Zeron Here's the complete set of Hazama's sprites. If you want me to just upload the pictures for the moves, I can do that as well, but it will take me a little bit to compile it and upload it to mediafire.

This is a forum for fighting games... Damn it, I love it here.

O_O WUT. You're not native to/born in Canada?

Hazama subforums: as turbulent as a middle-eastern or African country.

I think we need to push now more than ever for people to take airdashers seriously. I'm sick of people saying that BB is a shitty game. It may not be the complex, polished mess that was Guilty Gear, but BB is about all we've got right now as far as airdashers making it stateside. And yeah, Scottie's right, I'm hella hype for UNIB. I'm also hype for Aquapazza possibly coming to consoles as well as P4U. Hell, I'd even play Daemon Bride if anyone cared enough to put it on one of the cabs.

I have a plan to send a message to the EVO organizers: Step 0. Acquire copy of BBCS:EX and bring your PS3, the game, and your stick with you to Las Vegas on July 6-8, 2012. Step 1. Show up to EVO anyway as if BB was actually a game in the official line-up. Step 2. Organize a bracket and play the damn game as if it was a part of the official line-up. Step 3. Set up a stream. Step 4. Get more views than MK9 and GemFighter x Turdsandwich. Step 5. See the look on the organizers' stupid faces. Anyone who's with me, say so. #occupyevo

The timing is exactly the same. I've done it on the CSX cab we have at UFO, at least in arcade/story mode.

@Pozer, I posted what has helped me with getting down the TK loop in the Hazama general thread where you posted. Now, with your question in this thread, could you be a little bit more specific? Do you want to know stuff about character changes, new midscreen combos, movement options/gimmicks, etc? I don't know where to start.

I think the most important visual cues are 'traces' and the position of the character you're hitting. I believe I've said this before, but every C move that Hazama has (besides 6C) has a 'trace' to it. It's mostly just for flare, but if you wait until these 'traces' disappear before your next move comes out, I guarantee you'll be getting the timing right. Also, by the time you input 2C after 5C, the opposing character should be airborne at about the height of Hazama's neck/shoulders. While doing 2C, you can advance input 9214 (I do it 963214 just to make sure I input the 2 correctly. It should feel like you're making a 'J' with the stick) and as soon as the 'trace' of 2C disappears, press B while holding back. As for connecting 5C after j.214B, just watch your landing. And for the dash, if you input it just as you land or a few frames after and then press C, it should come out right. Really, the loop is all about patience. Nothing about the loop is too particularly fast, so as long as you pay attention, you should get the timing down in no time at all.

Really? Right after I leave Austin, you come down here the following weekend? You have no idea how much I want to meet you. Not because I want to play you or anything, you're just like a goddamn mythical creature that garners the lust of LuminAbyss for some reason. I saw a couple cosplaying as Kurisu Makise from Steins;Gate. Good cosplay, too. But really? Lust Sin? C'mon, man, everyone knows that Motor Head is the sexiest BB song.

And you're right, but that's only half of them. Contrary to popular belief, there are actually a lot nice-bodied girls at cons. Trust me, I had my eyes on quite a few girls at the rave.

Matt and Scottie told me that, if I cosplay as Hazama as the next convention I go to, I will "get all da bitches." I am heavily inclined to believe this, cos I could probably do better than most of the dudes that were cosplaying at Ikkicon this year. It was nice being able to play at UFO, and it was especially nice to see Pozer playing Hazama again :D I can't wait to come back. I just wish that having classes didn't come along with being in Austin again

Quick Announcement: UFO closes tonight at 10 p.m. So everyone needs to go go go!

Didnt see ya. We'll have to take over a ps3 saturday and session if you're still there.

Yo, Ryuujin, you should bring EX there~ Scotty and I should try and convince Marcell to let you come over for a while.

@Sey: Nice job representing Italy in the latest EXPOSED! video, you sexy little animal <3

This reminds me. Are you going to Ikkicon, Steve?
