RE: Game Boy Conversion MOD - New build 0.9.4 (Patreon)
Content
Pixel heavy update.
A lot of pixel art and voxel art experimentation trying to get right the look of the items in the original game boy rom. Some items sprites like the handgun (and other sprites that are sideviews of the item) can be translated directly into a voxel type 3d model and when you turn them around it looks good, but there are others like the shotgun or the first aid spray that where the sprite doesnt shows properly the volume of the object. In the case of the shotgun I decided for the same same route of the handgun I made a sideview of the shotgun from scratch but for the spray that is a cilinder I decided to experiment with magica voxel a tool to create voxel like models, the spray ended up a little chunky but it defintly has the look I was aiming for now it just need some refinement.
Item icons and 3d model are on the right track just need to recreate all the ones that are not in the original rom. Also I want to say: its very hard to draw a helmet with just 12 pixels.
Next are the fmv, will start with the more easy ones like the first zombie encounter and the cerverus in the main hall door. Hunters and neptune intros will probably be the last ones cause i found those more complex.
In other news next week I will post the preview of the Deadly Silence model pack with all the members of the STARS alpha team, it was supposed the be posted last month but had some problems with Barry's model but now the pack its almost done just need to fix some texture hands of the npc.
As always you will need the Mediakite Release of Resident Evil for PC and the Classic REbirth patch for the Game Boy conversion mod to work.
Whats new?
- Backgrounds: Some background and mask had been retouched to fix some minor issues .
- Textures: Some objects like stairs and forniture of the mansion have new textures to blend bettere with the backgrounds altho some have some lighting issues I need to fix.
- Inventory: fixed some transparency error with the cursor, new item icons and 3d model for items, Rebecca now has a pixelated mugshot.
Installation:
- Download the .7z file from the link I sent.
- Extract the .7z in the game folder. You should end up with a folder called mod_Gameboy in the game folder.
- Inside the mod_Gameboy folder you will find a folder called "Movies" copy this folder and paste it in the game folder and replace the files if necesary.
- Run the game and select the mod from the mod list like in the picture. You need to select the one that say [DEV] at the beginning.
- I recommend playing the game using the retro mode of Classic REbirth for a fully pixelated experience.
If you have any doubt or find any bug post them in the comments so I can fix it for the next build.
