WOAH MY FIRST HACK THREAD HERE ON SMWC ヽ(゜∇゜)ノSix years of nothing from me lol

Alright, this thread was supposed to be out during C3, but I procrastinated a tiny bit. Thanks Counter Strike Global Offensive

Also, I'm well aware of Rosalina's "unique" hair style. Unfortunately for right now, I do not know how to add separate graphics for right and left. If anyone knows how to do this, please PM me about it. It would be great if I could have that small feature to be consistent with her character.


If you're wondering, this would have been her left side view lol.

Anyways, I've always liked Rosalina (if you couldn't tell by my layout but idk) as a character since Super Mario Galaxy came out. Playing Super Mario 3D World got me inspired to make a hack featuring her. So I started work on it in late October. Only a few of my friends knew about this, and I'm glad they kept quiet for this long. The only way someone would have known about this, is if they checked this thread. Anyways on to my hack!


Story: The Lunar Cross has begun! Once a year, the skies of the Mushroom Kingdom are filled with beautiful shooting stars. These stars are very special, they hold a unique power to grant wishes. The remains of these shooting stars fall to the earth in small little star bits. Tonight, the Mushroom Kingdom is holding a giant festival for this occasion. Everyone is there, Toadstool, Mario, Luigi, and all their friends. But their celebration is short lived, Bowser and his army decide to ambush the castle. He swiftly kidnaps Mario, Luigi, and even Toadstool! Now with no one in the way, Bowser can collect these star bits for his very own, for reasons no one knows. However, he left one thing out. During the ambush Rosalina was thrown deep into the castle. Bowser had no idea she was there! Now, you're on a quest to take back the star bits, save your friends and the whole Mushroom Kingdom.


Screens: So for right now, I only have the player drawings done. This took a long time, and it was also my first player drawing. Its not easy, especially drawing a girl. Trying to draw girl's hair in a 16x32 box is not easy. Please tell me what you think so I can improve it in the final version.

Rosalina's walk cycle

Rosalina's jump

Rosalina's falling animation

Rosalina looking up

Rosalina climbing

Fire Rosalina

Rosalina's back

Rosalina's Pose

Item Carry

I tried making her look feminine when walking and falling. So I think I did a decent job on that. But I know there are areas that I can improve on.


Extras: Now I forgot to add something in these screenshots. There will be a Luma sprite that will follow Rosalina throughout the level! Special thanks to Suika Ibuki who is programming that sprite for me. I've seen the beta sprite, and it looks really cool and adds a little character to the game (no pun intended hurrhurr) I would have posted more, but I'm posting this from my work right now and I don't have access to any of my files. I should have something out by tonight, most likely a video showing off Rosalina better.

If anyone has anything they want me to improve on Rosalina, or they you would like to suggest something I should add, tell me and I'll consider it! For instance, I'm still not sure what I should do for small Rosalina. So if anyone would like to give me an idea of what I should do for that, I would appreciate it. I was thinking of the Luma changing colours when you're small. But I don't know very much ASM haha.

Anyways, thank you for your feedback and have a good day! ヽ(゜∇゜)ノ

Special Thanks!: Suika Ibuki, Eevee, Izuna, CidYoshi, KTB, SRH and anyone else that I forgot to add. Specifically people on IRC. You've been here with me throughout this, so thank you! ^o^

Hey!! Finally a Rosalina hack!! And she looks as preaty as she could in 16 bits!! :D

The animation looks ok (to bad for the issue with you have. Oh well), and the luma idea is genious!! This is good enough to present it. I hope you show us more in the future.

Keep the good work!!

Read my posted story here!!.

The Best Hack EVAR!!:



This layout good as my stories is made by Kagami

This is looking pretty great. I was wondering when she was going to get her own hack :P

If you are having issues with the 16x32 player size, you could always apply the 32x32 patch to give you more room.

Yeah I thought the Luma sprite would look pretty cool. Also yeah I agree, hopefully I can figure out how to make opposite player sprites.

Thank you Light! I couldn't believe no one made a Rosalina hack either.

I know about that patch, Im still pondering if I should use it though. It would definitely help with the flying animation, and the hair lol.

Wow, even though you've only re-skinned her, it looks so nice, soft and very nicely done~

I'm looking forward to see more from you! #ab{:LOL:}

Suika Ibuki - 25107
Ohh glad to see you finally made a thread for this ^^
I already said on PM but i think those new graphics are a way better than the first SMB2 Peach reskin one.
All i can say is keep up the good work. And sorry for my delay with this sprite request.

Whoa, your player graphics look really pretty! My only nitpicks at the moment are about her mouth. It looks.. weird, but considering you don't really have space, it's okay. The story is really good.
really looking forward to what this will turn out like, but from the sound of it i can probably expect something very promising. definitely keeping myself updated on this~
Thanks for all the feedback guys! Means a lot! SRH I know what you mean, probably going to change that soon haha.

As far as the mouth goes, you might be better off going a slight bit doujin-style and maybe removing the mouth completely or making it a slightly darker shade of her skin color. There are tricks you can pull off with a 16x32 sprite that can make a character's face look good. There's no way she's going to look like she does in her original game(s), haven't played any Mario besides SMW/SMAS so...

Otherwise this does look very promising. I'm pretty sure there's some ASM that can be made that allows a different tilemap for left and right. I always thought that simple X-Flipping can take a lot off of character design because you're so limited with things. That being said, being limited to 16x32 tile space is also very limiting....
This really seems like good stuff to me. Finally a project seeming unique and creative and at the same time focusing on keeping up professionalism and consistency.

I also agree that mouth could be removed like in doujin-style, as it was done in other princess graphics used here and there.

Good stuff :)
Didn't read much into the comments or anything, but is she going to have a face eventually? It's probably difficult to draw, but I bet it'll look much better. Good job with the sprite otherwise my friend.
Rosalina doesn't look like she's looking up in that pose actually. She seems to be more staring at someone due to her hair covering most of her face.

Other than that little complaint, I've never seen a hack starring Rosalina before either, so I'll look forward to see how you'll design this hack around her!
Hmm, although I think the overall appearance looks great, there a few little things that bother me.

First off, her eyes--err, eye is a little too small. It's not a huge deal right now, but I think you should make her eye a little larger like it is in Galaxy.
Secondly, this is just an opinion, but her pose seems a little out of character. I'm not sure if it's possible to pull off, but maybe you could have
Luma and Rosalina posing together, like this: http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20141104201248/fantendo/images/5/59/RosalinaAnarchy.png
If for plot purposes you're unable to do that, something like this: http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140206231314/ssb/images/8/8a/Rosalina_Super_Mario_3D_World.png
Or this one, minus the cleavage (I just searched Rosalina, no judge pls): http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/19700000/Rosalina-pics-the-leila-club-19700198-405-861.jpg

Another thing I noticed is that her falling animation is a weird transition from her jumping animation. Maybe have her arms flailing like this, but obviously straight up

Alright so thank you all for the feedback! I never thought this thread would get THIS MUCH attention. Its kinda overwhelming haha.

I really do appreciate it though! Im definitely going to take a few of your guys' advice. Such as changing the mouth to a more "doujin" style. I'm also going to change a few of the animation frames as well.

Yeah I know about the eyes, however I tried making them bigger, and it looked kinda weird to me. I'll keep working at that though. Also for the posing, I'm not 100% positive about that. But we will see.

I'm also thinking of implementing her classic spin attack, however I'm still debating about it. Considering how its just a cape reskin, and the cape power-up is kind of over powered when spammed.

EDIT: Here is a video I just finished today showing off of her animations. Do not worry about small Mario being unchanged, still deciding what to do with that.

GRAPHICS CHANGED:
Rosalina's mouth
Rosalina's eyes
Rosalina's swimming
Rosalina's carry
Rosalina's punching net

Watch the video here!

Please tell me what you think of the changes, or how things look. Thank you for the feedback!

EDIT 2: The audio is all messed up for some reason. The file on my computer doesn't sound like that at all. Sorry about that.

Holy buttfucking fuck, those are some nice player gfx!

Though I must be honest, something to me seems bothersome about how light the brown hue of the lines in her hair are compared to the black outline. Try seeing if darknening it (and possibly the yellow too) could help balance out those colours more.

This looks like it's gonna be really awesome though. Can't wait to see the next update.
Also, hit me up you need an extra hand drawing tilesets cause this looks well worth the time for me to chip in. =)
My layout has removed you.
Surely if you've gone as far as you have already with this, you also plan to make new land GFX aswell, yes? I surely do hope so, because this seems like a very interesting project! Do keep up the great work though, and please continue providing material for us to enjoy.
Your layout has been removed.
To answer both of your questions. Yes, there will be custom grass graphics. I just wanted to make a quick custom level to show off the player graphic progress. Although I'll probably look for custom graphics first before I draw them. I never realized how hard pixel drawing is haha.

Face thank you so much! I'll definitely keep you in mind! Yeah, I'll try and change up her hair palette a bit.

Thank you so much both of you for the feedback!

Sorry about the late reply, though I know you wanted more opinions than my own, I just forgot about this. Yeah that's definitely a good step in the direction. My nit-picky observations come from being in the FE hacking community lately, where if 1 pixel is out of match, it's a pretty noticeable mistake.
Anyways, I looked online a little and I found a sprite sheet of Rosalina that may or may not fix the eye problem you had; instead of using 1 pixel of blue on the bottom and another pixel of white on the top, they used a darker shade of blue instead of white on top. Only 1x2 as you had it, but it certainly made a difference. Try that out and see what you think.
Just to reiterate because it's easy to misinterpret things: Light shade of blue as the bottom pixel, darker shade of blue on the top.
