Title: Alucard not Playable on DoS?
Post by: dark_soul on December 19, 2007, 12:20:06 PM: hey guys, i found some kind of hint that if i defeated the boss rush mode or something i could Unlock Alucard on Julius mode, how the hell could i do that? i found a walkthrough and im NEAR at defeating the game itself but i saw the unlockables and didn't mention not a single word about alucard...how to do it?

He's in the room where Arikado gives Soma Mina's letter and the Talisman.

Yes, it must be in Julius mode. There's a little cutscene where Alucard explains why he's not dressed like Arikado.

Is he holding an RPG??

Post by: Long John Silver on December 20, 2007, 07:39:29 PM: Yeah. I did some messing around and replaced Soma with Alucard. The game still thinks it's Soma, but it uses Alucard's graphics, voices etc.

Not a romhack, just a simple memory hack+savefile.

Post by: dark_soul on December 20, 2007, 08:39:25 PM: wow! cool! w8, if i play alucard he has RPG settings just like SOMA? or, he's just like BELMONT that runs around and kill stuff?

You do know they mean RPG as in Rocket Propelled Grenade, not Role Playing Game, right?
Title: Re: Alucard not Playable on DoS?
Post by: olroxshade on December 22, 2007, 04:12:33 PM: Serio, Alucard's graphics are weird at the time of use a two handed sword?
Title: Re: Alucard not Playable on DoS?
Post by: Long John Silver on December 22, 2007, 05:28:57 PM: Yeah. Al has only animation for his normal sword, so it looks all weird when he uses anything else.

Yoko however doesn't care at all, her weapon is hardcoded.

Julius freezes after he uses a weapon and tries to brandish it.
