SMB3-styled SM3DW Rammerheads (Update)

Postby **Squishy Rex** » Mon Dec 15, 2014 11:08 pm

One of the last of the new 3D World enemies that I haven't yet sprited. Rammerhead comes in both the pink and purple variations, however, the pink ones do NOT act like they do in 3D World. They both replace the SMB3 Cheep Cheeps and cannot be defeated by fireballs, iceballs and cannot be jumped on when out of water. Please give credit if you use them.

UPDATE: Now contains the final of the three Rammerheads. This one swims vertically through the level, just set it on a generator ad watch it do the rest. It replaces the SMB Girder Lift, so make sure you set it to "UP" or you'll have some backwards swimming sharks... Also, you might want to attach some invisible spikes or something to it, because, through trial and error there is no way to make the Lift hurt the player when touched unfortunately otherwise it would be perfect.

They look good, although I'm not sure about the perspective. It seems a little off.

The perspective on these were difficult to get a 2.5 dimensional or 3 quarter profile, mainly due to the sausage-shape of the head. Trying to get that 3 quarter look with the head while incorporating the spikes was sort of hard to do without it looking boxy and cluttered. Don't get me wrong, that idea was the first I tried to design up for this enemy, but, unless I was over-complicating things this definitely looks more accurate. Though with the third vertical swimming version still a WIP, I'll still try to improve this one if I can.

I hope that Enemy has a manageable Hitbox to Encounter. I do like that you implemented this Enemy into SMBX as it gaves us a more variety of Enemy choicements. Very good work on that.

I think managing the hitbox shouldn't be too much of a problem; 64 x 32 would work fine, I think.

I tried, both that and playerblocktop=0 as well. That usually works with most enemies, however, this platform just won't accept the changes. I believe it has hard-coded npc flags, which is a shame. If the playerblocktop=0 worked, it would be practically an exact replica of the real thing basically.
