Topic: Castlevania: Symphony of the night HACKED! I bet you thought I had quit? ;)

The glitches aside I would prefer the New Richter sprite to show up after the flashback fight.
Since you're using Mem hack for alot of the RAM modification isn't there a way to load the new sprite in place of the old one by swapping it in RAM?

I had thought of doing that before; it wouldn't be much work but I am not sure if I want to go that route yet or not. I liked the idea though.

[Inccubus]

I definitely like the idea and it would make things more consistent with the artwork.

that was an epic prologue, reminds me of the first time i played Rondo, i had my ass handed to me several times before i got the timing down, this is got my hyped to see what else your SOTN has in store

That new Richter Sprite seems way out of place, the original is much better. Hell even the alternate Saturn sprite fits better.  Those fire columns dracula uses now are really awesome.   Good to see you back at the Dungeon, the Best CV forums around

For those of you complaining about Richter's sprites, ironically Serio has redone them.



If anyone wants to insert these in game please let me know. If no one wants to help they will be staying as is. Most of his frames can be simply copy and pasted in, but some do not come out right in tile molester, and Serio had to hex edit those in. Due to the OBVIOUS time consuming effort this took I will not even attempt it.

Awesome! another sprite page!

I think it looks out of place is because Richter palettes are too dark.

Here's an idea Esco. For the whole hack and not just the prologe, keep the original Richter sprite in the 'final battle' scene. But like in the sega saturn version, use these new richter sprites for the rest of the game when you confront Richter while playing Alucard. You could also have it accessable in the file selection when you want to play as Richter and imput in the password 'DRACULAX' just like in the saturn version. But do keep the new vampirekiller weapon you gave Richter. It's better then that short one he originally had.

Is this better?

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

Yeah that's looking a li'l better, what with the more true blue.

[Omegasigma]

I agree with Jorge, he looks more like his classic pallet now

[Inccubus]

I think the dark blue shade should be a tad darker, now that I'm looking at it again.
I sampled the colors from an original Richter Sheet and derived the lighter and darker shades from the main blue.
I'll update the sheet in just a sec...

And just for s&g's; CV The Bloodletting Rival's colors:
( Kinda looks like Juste, huh?)

good god.. so much sprite sheets of custom Richter Belmont sprites in different colors.. x-x but from what I have seen, the colors that Esco had put up are all messed up, compared to Serio's original color scheme. so I decided to recolor the sheet myself, to represent Serio's original color scheme and fixing the kicks and whips attacks color schemes as well.



so there you have it. and no blinding pink background either! enjoy!
