QB Battle 21.7

Megaupload: App + Media (update) + Extra chars
Sendspace: App + Media (update) + Extra chars

Added the fanmade Tifa Lockhart (thanks to the pics gathered by Okami31):


Since Tifa is one of the most popular game characters, I tried hard to convey her "FF gameplay" into here.

All the problems that resulted from changing the compiler version should hopefully be solved now...

Coming next: If I can't get anything extra done, at least Black Widow.

Edit: Replaced Rebellion Risty's profile with one I translated into english in the What is QB? page.

Edit2 (06-14): Fix to make Tifa's MP work properly: Megaupload / Sendspace

Edit3 (06-17): Patch to avoid 2P Echidna's disarming glitch, and a correction for one of Nyx' moves: Megaupload / Sendspace

Edit4 (06-23): Patch to avoid 2P Claudette's parry glitch: Megaupload/Sendspace. QG Yukimura Sanada confirmed for this next update.

  2. Since we already have Ivy from Soul Calibur, I think it’s fitting that my next character should be the slightly less busty, ninja vixen TAKI.

    Taki fights with dual Kodachis, so like Elektra she should be able to parry and slash and even kick and slash and similar combinations. Unfortunately I couldn’t find a proper pick where she uses both kodachis at once but she does do a twin blade sort of move. Maybe one of the pics where she’s slashing and the other hand is on the second kodachi?

    Also, I couldn’t find a weapon dislodged pic so you’re gonna have to get creative…haha…sorry…

    As a ninja she should move behind the opponent due to her agility (she doesn’t teleport in the game but she does jump high and in an arc, usually falling behind the opponent’s back).

    Ivy didn’t have named moves so there’s no pressure in getting all her moves named…her fiery moves can be just “unblockables”…I believe her charged up moves are called “Possession” but I’m not entirely sure…the “bomb” one would force the opponent to jump…


    By the way, is it a hassle for you to save my pics from flickr? If so, what site do you recommend that wouldn’t censor as many pics as photobucket?

  3. Yay, Taki, that's a lot of pics for her, well done! (and that was fast, too)

    As for downloading the pics from Flickr, don't worry, I just use Bulkr to get them all in one fell swoop :D

  4. Oops, Tifa could actually use Materia spells even with 0 MP, what a silly mistake... A new patch above fixes that.

  7. Hey, don't scare me like that... Just kidding, though :)

    Btw, 2P Echidna seems to glitch out sometimes, I'll be posting another patch later.

  8. Hi leecherboy,
    I have noticed a little "mistake" in Nyx's book.
    But first, i want to apologize for my bad english.

    In the character sheet, at Extended Range, Nyx can uses two kind of Thrust (high n°54 and low n°60). But, Thrust High does only -1 damage, and Thrust Low does +5 and uses to end as a fire attack.
    So I started to "read" the matrice. Thrust High (54) is just a simple extended range thrust, but Thrust Low (60) is definitly not a thrust. It is a magic attack.

    If Nyx uses thrust low (60), let's see what is the result with all opponent attacks :
    50 > P.47
    52 > P.47
    54 > P.47
    56 > P.59
    58 > P.47
    60 > P.47
    62 > P.59
    64 > P.35

    P.47 : Firebird (+5 fire damages / and +3 if opponent wears clothes)
    P.59 : Extended Range Fireball (+5 fire damages)
    P.35 : Extended Range Body Wound (score 5 / crit 9)

    So, in my mind, Thrust Low (60) should be renamed as something like "Magic", and Thrust High (54) as just a "Thrust".

    But, just changing the name cause another problem : restrictions. If "Thrust low" become "Magic", you can still use this magical attack even if you're restriced to. (P.35, critical : do no Magic for the rest of the combat). So you will have to change this too.

    But (again), this can solve the P.61 Extended Range Dodging useless restriction, witch is : " Do only Extended Range and add +2 to Magic that scores next turn". Nyx didn't have any Magic at Extended Range (it clearly appears in the game : start a game with Nyx, choose 52.Dodge for both characters, no extra damages for the next move, even if you strike with a P.47 Firebird -witch have +2 at close range). Awkward.

    Regards.

  9. You know, you're exactly right, good analysis. Plus, the original translator did have that move as "Magic", so that's pretty much it.
    The newest patch fixes that, and the glitch I was talking about.

  10. I just had a program-closing error in a fight between Aldra and Claudette from range...it happened twice when they parried...dunno if this helps:

    This is a nicer off-balance pic for Catwoman if you wish to update it...

    "Sure, I'd appreciate it if you could scan the characters and cards I don't have (though a couple of people have offered already to do the same, but I guess they're busy with some other stuff)."

    Well I am too; I still haven't got to it, but I'm out there somewhere, will try to get back to you at some point. It might be easier if I could talk to you by email.

    "Though... what's that about "Indy battlebooks"? Is that an actual thing? I'm not sure I've heard about those :D"

    I was referring to Darkchylde (which you have) and Witchblade (which I think you don't). There may be a couple others too, its' been a while since I looked at them.

  14. Oh, for a moment I thought you meant "Indiana Jones" :D If it's the ones that aren't strictly Marvel, like Vampirella, Shi and those two, I think I have them all.

    As for e-mail, feel free to contact me at the one in the "About..." section of the app (sorry for the hassle, but I'm sort of paranoid sometimes :p)
