Avengers "Enhanced" Costumes

Archive: 6 posts


I'm making playable "enhanced" sackbot Avengers using costumes from the Marvel kit. So far Iron Man is finished. He walks like a normal sackboy, but pressing R1 while using the L Stick, he can fly (with a cool flying sound and smoke coming from below him). Pressing circle and square fire projectiles (with a cool firing sound). Right now, I'm working on Thor. My plan is to have a button that, when you press it, causes "lightning" to come from above to strike any enemy. Right now, I'm stuck. I want to have (when the button is pressed) the global lighting go bright to coincide with the lightning strike. I've got that part done, but I have not discovered a way to get the regular lighting back without having to press another button. I just want the bright light to be a momentary flash. I may do more with Thor. I also plan to have the Hulk have grabinators and be large (duh). I would also like to use some sort of camera shake with him, to show how large he is, for when he's walking. Finally I have no clue what to do with Captain America. Maybe something related with his shield. I doubt I'll make an actual level, so I'll probably (If I finish all the characters) make a "level" where people can take and use the enhanced characters (providing they already have the costumes).

Edit (5/26)- Along with Iron Man, Thor (I solved my earlier problem- I used a sequencer and it worked like a charm) and Hulk are finished. I wasn't able to figure out the Hulk camera shake, but I found something I like better. I used a sequencer to alter the gravity to make him jump slightly higher and with more force (with him roaring). I was able to sync in a "thud" noise to show him coming back to ground. There is a VERY slight shake of the camera along with that, meaning I don't have to worry about making my own shake. With the grabinators, whenever he grabs something, I put in a yell (I may one day record me yelling HULK SMASH). Now it's time to work on Captain America. Any suggestions as to what powers I give him?

Edit (5/27)- ....AND Captain America is done. I decided to go for more practical attacks, than super. He is able to use the Paintinator, as well as chuck grenades (via an emitter). Pressing L2 or R2 deploys an "electrified" shield (one for his left and one for his right). The shield, while protecting him, can also be used to "fry" enemies. This was a lot of fun, creating the different powers for the characters.

Here are the LBP.me links for all four characters:

Yea, I have to agree with that. You should show pictures of the costumes atleast in the level's badge instead of just colors.2012-05-31 21:40:00

While pictures are great for most levels, it would not be worth it for mine. All you would see are the regular Marvel costumes. There is nothing else in the levels. These were just made so that anyone making an Avengers level could use them if they wanted to. Otherwise, the levels are barren.

Than how exactly are these costumes "enhanced"?

I gave them special powers. But getting pictures of these powers would be a real hassle, especially Thor and his lightning. The pictures for Hulk would do nothing since so much of the costume revolves around lower gravity when he jumps and sounds. Captain America is the most basic of all of them. He uses a paintinater and hurls "grenades," while having similar jump mechanics to Hulk. Trying to capture Iron Man firing off his beams (or whatever they're called) would be as much as hassle as Thor's lightning. The only thing I could capture well, would be Iron Man and Thor flying, and possibly Hulk using grabinators to pick up things. I just don't think taking pictures would do the costumes justice.
