ECX: Revival

[Sting]

This is only a alpha vid of the new addon ECX Revival.
This means a lot will change but we show you some features we going to have for you.

Like Vegeta's new attack.
Its the similair attack from the series that he used against Nappa.

Also we added some plugins that raven made once.
We are thinking to use them and to make it a bit more realistic.
All credits goes to Raven for the great plugins.

Vegeta-Saiyin is a known character from my first projects and yes he comes back also in Oozaru style.
This is 1 of the things we still need to fix some stuff.

We show you also a powerup transformations from vegeta and goku.
Also on this part we are still working on it.
The diffrendses between powerups and real transformations lies in the time and strength.
A real transformation takes at least 15 sec where a power up takes max 15 sec.

There is something else but its a bit of a secret if you see it ok secret revealed if you dont see it well its still is a secret then.
Its still alpha and nothing what you see on this vid is 100% good.
In time we will come with a better teaser and also a lot more to see.

Next release will be a beta teaser that will come out in 1,5 month arround 30 october.
Where you will see more characters, more new weapons and new features releases on vids.

not am other pack for ecx rc2

 

[Spunky]

As if ECX weren't enough. :/

 

[Skyrider]

I may be mistaken in this part, but don't you need permission to use its ECX name?

 

[Spunky]

If they just called it ECX, sure. But they've appended their own thing to the name, making the obvious separation between the two projects. So in my opinion, no. But it couldn't hurt to ask for permission anyway.

 

[Tenzo]

I may be mistaken in this part, but don't you need permission to use its ECX name?

I believe he needs it.
And as Spunky said; can't you people get enough of ECX and all sorts of esf1.2.3 addons? it is getting annoying.:]

 

[skizer]

You're totally wrong with your opinion.

Alone the fact that they've called their project ECX: REVIVAL.. says everything.

Sure, its nice to see that the community try to make such projects bec it seems like they rlly liked ecx.. but to ask is never wrong.

They use sprites from ECX, plugins from ECX.. call their project ECX: Revival.. lemme guess.. ya it would be better if they would ask at least and give credits @videos etc if they gonna use our plugins etc. :yes:

P.S @string, the lightning around the bodys are to big, make it smaller

 

[Spunky]

Oh well yeah, they should ask to use Raven's plugins and stuff, of course. I was only talking about the name. ECX: Revival clearly declares it to be a separate project.

Oh and an opinion can never be wrong. Just so you know.

 

[skizer]

The project is called ecx "revival", that means more or less a revive of ECX.

He use the hud we've made, sprites and plugins.
Dont you think people would get in mind that we are behind that?

Its just logical that name1 and name2 are two seperate projects, but dont you think that if they are called ecx and ecx:revival, that they could have a relationship ?

If they just called it ECX, sure. But they've appended their own thing to the name, making the obvious separation between the two projects. So in my opinion, no. But it couldn't hurt to ask for permission anyway.

You answered directly after skyriders posts, so it looked like your opinion is about the whole project
Not to forget, that the name is a important part for a project.. "revival"

Enough chip chap..

@Sting, please contact raven for the permission etc.

~greets skizer



I hope you get my point

 

[Spunky]

Then you know what they should do? Give credit to the original team. By doing so, any confusion with who created the mod goes right out the window. That, coupled with their own website.

I've seen plenty of "revival" projects in my day, none of which have been mistaken for the originals.

 

[Skyrider]

Or just another name for the addon.. And not taking any stuff from the ECX team ^^_.

 

[Greenberet]

ecx revival is an addon for ecx so they need ecx to play it.
so i dont see problems here because of the sprites and name

 

[Sting]

Well Skizer makes his point in the name. But I gonna tell you why we choose for this name. Greenbaret said the project was official dead. So it means there wasnt come any updates and stuff like that. ECX wasnt completely finished. Transformation to ssj4 has never been released. Also a new special was comming for goku..... his instance transmission. But never released another version.

But now that ecx died we try to revive it and give it a new form.
And yes we will use stuff from ecx. Did we ask permission??? Not yet but we will ask Raven for that.
Like I said this is only a Alpha version and still many will be changed.

Also we going to ask permission to other stuff from other creators that we going to use.
At this point we are making new sprites.
We also going to try to make a new hud and new weapon icons.
If we going to fail in this part then we ask if we can use ecx his hud.

Another thing whats important here is that we arent pro's.
Infact we are beginners... so this project is not only to bring something out but also for us to try to learn something. Some gains experiance in spriting and some gains experiance in coding and we all try to learn something there.
So in other words we use this project to learn and in the mean time we release something.

And for the credits we will release a beta vid with all the credits to everyone.
Because we also using maps from other people.
Still we have something in mind about that as well.
But you will see it in time.


@ Skizer thanks for the tip about the lighting.
I will change the range.


1 other thing tho.... did you saw something odd in this movie what doesnt seem right???
I think the more experiance people will/should see it tho.

 

[Viper]

Why don't you guys learn to friggin code and make your own addon?

 

[Darth Revan]

Why don't you guys learn to friggin code and make your own addon?

Trust me i am lerning to code but not in amxx but in c++ that way we can make our own mod instead but i suppose we could make an addon for 1.3 when i finesh my course also plz dont flame us we are only doing this untill 1.3 comes 100%

 

[Spunky]

If that's all you plan to use that knowledge for, I'd suggest just waiting for 1.3. Otherwise it's going to feel like a huge waste of time when 1.3 is released. Just my two cents. But if you still want to do it, best of luck.

 

[Sting]

Well its like Madman/Anubish said why all the flaming??
I mean why not learning amxx??
Raven, Greenbaret and Lod started with an addon based on amxx and look where they are now.
And we arent pro's in programming so what makes you think we can code a addon for esf1.3???
I think this is a good place to start and to learn.
And maybe 1 day we can make an addon for esf1.3.

 

[Spunky]

When did I flame you? I'm not trying to discourage you, just telling you my point of view. Oh and I thought you were learning C++, not Pawn? Which one is it?

 

[Plakman]

if you get permission i'd say go for it.
if you can manage to be better than bigpack then congrats.
but for now alot of work is needed to be done.
so i think it's a bit early to show this addon due it's progress and permission.
also i'd suggest to add something new to the game.
almost evrything was ecx... except the powerups, it's the tool ecx made... cci?
i have to admin that the goku powerup looked kinda cool
and the dust trails.
but really with how many guys are you?

At the moment we have 5 people working on the project.
2 spriters, 1 modeler and a coder and coder/fx.
You say if we can beat bigpack well I think we cant give an opinion about that because people has diffrend taste. Some will probs like it and some dont.
Then again we arent in a competition here with any mods/addons or other plugins.
But it will be a lot diffrend then bigpack and this is going to be a super bigpack or is it a small pack

You asking for new stuff because what you have seen was also in ecx....
Well I say yes part of it what you have seen is also in ecx.
Thats why we call it ecx revival
But dont worry there will be new stuff in it.
New kind of transformations you havent seen yet.
Also has to do with the special FX.
And dont forget the Oozaru transformation.
Nappa and gohan will have rage mode.
It will be a similair form of the kaioken but its still going to be diffrend.
I think you have to watch and see (when its done ).

We have some new specials in mind but we also going to need a little bit of help with that part. There is something else we after at but thats something special and not many people will know about.
And thats the part that people going to like or dislike.
But can tell you this dont think you ever have seen this.
At least I havent seen it before.

I admit that you are right and it was early.
We just started and allready major things going to chance.
Still we have questions open about posibilities.
We going to ask them soon.
But all with all you see some (big/small) changes in ECX: Revival.
We do our best and thats the only thing we can do.
