SO, before I drop in this month's update (which is actually focused on the new version of Gejhi, being started, as well as a combo and button system rework.) I wanted to just make a quick personal update.
I recently had surgery, so my progress this month on like EVERYTHING slowed down. I had to get a small cyst removed. I'm recovering well it seems, but the process - frustratingly - slow. I'm generally able to sit more normally now (cuz it was on the top of my butt), but my sleep patter...

So this update isn't as big as I'd have liked it to be, but I'm still coming off of a commission grind. I'm still gonna need more commission grinding thanks to tablet issues I've encountered, but I'm going to try to make more time for these updates either way.

I've decided to pause the cycle for October because while I have been trying to do some work on the projects, I've ended up a failed experiment. (For now)
I was trying to rework the way the parry function works, but I've had some issues with gettin it to properly function in the IkemenGo engine. I've SAVED the work for whenever IkemenGo gets an update that will fix the issue, but I donno when that'll be. I've had to put that idea aside for the time being.

Post update: I made a quick patch to Gejhi's (and Aurumo's) AI. I noticed for some reason Gejhi's AI was having an issue with jumping, so I added a quick fix for that. I'm also aware of another small bug with the AI with certain defensive things that seem to break the AI temporarily. This will be fixed soon.

Hello all, I squeezed in some time this month between my heavy commission workload to get some more work on this stuff out.
This update is focused on Mango, But ALSO, I fixed the issue that was crashing the updated AI characters in the MUGEN Engine. I got some help to figure out the weird error message I was getting and it turned out the be a simple fix, it was just really hard to find. So the Mugen versions should now be working.
I haven't updated the AI work fur...

I have Gejhi and Aurumo Presentable, but I didn't manage to get Feliro quite that far, but he has a basic level of stuff working here.
Mango and Shiren don't have any AI yet.

Well I have a new update finally, and this one features Shiren now. Sh'e still very early in development and is still using a lot of Aurumo's older assets as I worked on top of an older version of his file, (so had to port over some update code too)
ALSO INCLUDED IN THIS PACK is a "Tag.zss" file for The IkemenGO versions to function with in Tag-mode. This is a minor tweak to the system allow for free tagging during combos, which my characters use special tag-in-attacks to keep a...

I starting working on AI again. Starting specifically with rewriting Gejhi's AI. His previous AI was rushed because I wanted to get the character out for folks to finally play with, but after some patches I made, it also seemed to weirdly effect his behavior.
SO, I'm rewriting his AI very carefully this time, and working out the kinks and weird glitches I overlooked and already fixed a LOT of the basic issues with the AI. I also have new ideas on how I'm going to implement the AI'...

Yeah, like the title says. I wanna wave the charge coming up in a couple days for current patrons. I've been trying to pick at work on the characters, but I've not been able to do a satisfactory amount of work on them yet. I've been bogged down with other stuff lately.
As I usually say, I don't like my supporters being charged when my output is lacking.

This month's update focused on Aurumo again.
Before I go over the Aurumo updates, a couple things of note are universal:
I adjusted the tag-in attack positioning of each character to reduce accidental crossups.
I had to tweak my special control code again because the recent IkemenGo update 0.98.2 changed/fixed their input reader a bit and it slightly broke my control system. Was easy enough to figure out and tweak and all is working well again after a few adju...

Sorry for the lag on gettin Shiren and more character updates out. It really feels like my ADHD has been full-blown lately and I'm struggling to stay on top of things. (long story with meds and heart issues and trying other stuff) ionno. I was okay for a while but for some reason I've extreme slow paced on everything I've been picking at.
That said, I WILL have an update with Shiren and other character updates before this month is out. I'm aiming for a big post by mid-next week.

Ey, sorry for the delays on gettin Shiren out, but stuff has came up and I needed to shift my focus a bit, so I couldn't focus mega hard on this stuff recently, but I'm gonna try to get that Shiren WIP out before the month's end.
That said, here's an update to hold over. I've been picking a bit at the critters and a bit at how the tag system works for them in IkemenGo.
I also realized that I should start including in my modified tag.zss file for my characters, as ...

I'm gonna be pushing to get another WIP critter out for you all!
This here is Shiren. I have a file started for her in the game, but only basic movements so far.
She's gonna be a "half-grappler" archetype. Good movement on the ground but more limited in the air. (weak air-jump and air-dash, sluggish mid-air steering.)
She'll have some throws that are worked into her combo strings, with moves that becomes throws when the hit connects. She'll have a special project...

EDIT: SMall change to add small and large portraits to Mango's file, instead of the placeholder Aurumo. Also Mango's Read-Me was updated.
Characters in this update are GEJHI, AURUMO, FELIRO and the featured one of this update, MANGO. Mango is mostly the only one with updates in this post. Aurumo got a small detail of perma-freeze when KOing a foe with a freezing attack.

It's been a bit since I've posted an update animation sprite set for download, so, here's a new set for Aurumo with all the frames and gif exports I made so far. It has a handful of updated animations that I finished. I have more on the way, so I'll be posting another Aurumo set next month, as I'm at the point of grinding out animation work for him.
This includes other unfinished assets in it along side the ones I finished so far!
Thanks a bunch for the support. <3

[Quick patch 11/13/21] Just posting this up at the top of this post. I noticed that Aurumo and Feliro's Omega supers didn't activate when the meter said so. I forgot to change one number in the two of them to match the changes I made to Omega meter. Feliro's move still have a sync issue when in tag team mode which I'm going to figure out for next update.

So, the last couple of weeks I've been picking at working my code a bit to play nice with Ikemen Go, which is an engine that has expanded on the Mugen 1.1b engine considerably with a lot of added features. So, what I'm aiming to do is make my characters consistent in both engines at the base level, which I have achieved. I just need to fix a couple things on Aurumo and Feliro. This code rework is actually better overall than the system I have working prior, as I've managed to convert directio...

Soooo, I'm letting October come free for current patrons again. I've been very bogged down with personal stuff going on lately and my motivation hasn't been the greatest. Among the issues, I've been going through doctor offices because of pending/unknown issues they are trying to figure out and some clues have been found.

I'm not gonna charge supporters on September 1st. This month was a quiet one for meaningful updates outside of what I posted at the start of the month. I haven't had a ton of time to grind out animation for Aurumo and Feliro, so and just waving the charge for this month as usual when I have a quiet period.
Don't want folks payin me when I don't have good updates.

This Update focuses on Feliro mainly.
Before I get into the Feliro-specific details. Some small adjustments were made to the internal mechanics for all characters. I made changes to my special buffer system. Doing cancels between moves is now more consistent with a 12-frame buffer for inputs during attacks. This was done for attack that move and have longer active periods, to make canceling them more lax without needing to sp...

So, I've been trying to squeeze in work on Aurumo's file, and I'm dangerously close to the end of the month again. Commission work's been heavy, at least with me trying to finish various commission projects.
That said, I have rough animations of ALMOST everything needed for Aurumo. Just a couple of universal animations are missing (dizzy, guard flinch frames, and stand/couch transition frames remain).
I'm did a rough for an upwards Power attack, need to do one for a downwards powe...

I've already made some more adjustments to how some of their moves work as well.

For the most part this update is a balance and mechanical tweak for these two. I didn't get a chance to add in too much in the way of missing animations and attacks, but there is a significant amount of code and testing work that went into this round to iron out how these two play out. I wanted to pump out some more work on them, but, I also don't want to withhold the work. There's always more work at this phase, so it's best I just ...
