I can combine this with my specular shader as well! The TEV node is not finished yet, but it's very promising!

With the specular shader, and now the TEV color mixer, I'll soon have the best way to create and render models for Melee within Blender.

:D

Still, this was a neat experiment! I may expand upon it if I ever get my laptop fixed to create it in newer versions of Blender.

The only use cases I have thought of for this are video production (which I have no clue how viable it may be compared to other easily-accessible media) or as an option to visualize them in Slippi Replays within Blender, but I feel a gecko code in its playback player would be much easier than this.

That's pretty cool! However, the Melee community already has pictures and in-game gifs of the attacks from forum posts or sites. There's also HSDraw if you wanted to make new ones to show moves from different angles with or without interpolation, so people would use those instead since it's easier.

After about an hour of tinkering I was able to fake hitbox interpolation to a certain extent. Probably not worth it, but it's still cool.

No hitbox interpolation tho. Wish I could do something for that. 🙁

Post-release I can definitely consider sharing some in-dev stuff, but ofc not everything. Dev blogs on content that's already been released is something I can consider doing.

These are good options to consider!

Option 1 would likely be handled by the Akaneia Build BSky page once it's ready. They've been doing that for a long time.

Options 2 and 3 sound fun! I would have to obfuscate the new fighters' names, but I could look into in-dev stuff from released fighters.

I did this for the Sonic reveal on a whim and it attracted a lot of people to the voice chat channel to watch the trailer live. It was fun interacting with everyone and seeing their reactions to the reveals! I would definitely do it again for this next one!

I don't know if it would be called 0.93. It's just what number would be next after 0.92. I'm basically guessing.

Being real, it's coming when it's ready. I can't reveal a single thing about it, so no previews! Sorry! Also, I don't want to ruin the surprise!

But the day the m-ex Discord server's icon turns into this, you'll know it's coming.
