Brawl 64 Development

News via http://supremedirt.drunkencoders.com...4-development/

I’ve decided to also use this blog for my mod of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Brawl 64.
Basically a remake of Smash 64, with updated graphics, larger character roster, more stages, etc.
I plan on, far down the road, also balancing items and final smashes, though this won’t be done until the very end.
Right now I am working on shields. Just standing still, in your shield, in Brawl your shield breaks in roughly a second. In 64, it breaks in 900 frames exactly, or 15 seconds. This might seem simple, but then 64 had a different rate at which shields recovered as well, and I have no idea how to find this value aside from learning how the game is programmed, and locating the constant for it.
Much work is ahead of me. I think the next thing I’ll do is remove side specials, should be a fairly simple task.
