Well, if I wasn't so horribly distracted, I could finish it today. The latest you'll have it is Tuesday.

If you do change his name, I recommend the name Virgil. My reasoning for this is actually kind of complicated.
The final boss in FFVI was the Tower of Kefka, right? Well, three tiers of the tower are based on a portion of the epic poem, "Divine Comedy", written by Dante Alighieri. The story is about two men, Dante and Virgil who travel through Hell, Purgatory and Heaven (Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso). Hell is represented in Divine Comedy by Satan trapped up to his waist. The beasts, machinery, and humans of the second part of Kefka's Tower are a representation of Purgatory, which was the second part of Divine Comedy. Finally, Heaven is the last part, where Dante speaks to God himself (represented here by Kefka) and God tells him the meaning of life.
Back to my point, Dante and Virgil were the main protagonists in this story, so why not add to the symbolism? I strongly suggest Virgil instead of Vincent.
Just thought I'd update you on Vincent.
Basic movement sprites are completed.

yeah I see your point, and I am very familiar with that story
I suppose the reason why I didn't do that was because of the whole Devil May Cry thingy thing thing lmao
but yeah I suppose Virgil will be much better regardless
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - RajaHibiki - 08-09-2009
Yeah, I understand what you're saying about DMC. It's unlikely most other players will get the reference and will probably immediately connect it to DMC. But I still think it would be better.
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - SSJ Rick - 08-09-2009
yeah, you're right....f**k WHAT THEY THINK! lmao j/k
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - RajaHibiki - 08-09-2009
hahahaha, damn straight!
Well, like I said, the latest you'll get Virgil is Tuesday, and you'll probably get it before then. I'll let you know when I update it more.
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - SSJ Rick - 08-09-2009
iight then bro
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - RajaHibiki - 08-09-2009
So whose next on your list?
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - SSJ Rick - 08-10-2009
well I suppose its either Demo, or Marcus
Marcus is the Narshe Guard, and Demo is the cyborg, I figured to make everyone's lives easier you can use General Leo's body (I find that the perfect uniform for him), I say just switch the blue & green in his outfit, give him a bionic left arm and a bionic right leg anf there we go :p
I suppose u can alter Leo's hair so its not like a Mohawk n a little longer
I figured his weapon of choice would be ninja blades, like what Shadow uses (just bear with me here), his bionic arm has a blade compartment on his wrist, so a thin short blade would come out of it :p
RE: FF6 Hack Idea: The New Resistance - RajaHibiki - 08-10-2009
I'll give that a shot as soon as I'm finished with Virgil, but I'm changing comps AGAIN on Tuesday or Wednesday, so I'll only be giving an example sprite for the time being. Unless you wanted to do Demo?
Actually, I'm having trouble with one of Virgil's sprites too...do you think you could do the sprite of him being hit? I'm not very good with those ones.
