Hey the animation for the drive transformation isn’t working correctly for me any troubleshooting tips? I see it working for other people just fine.

my only gripe albeit a somewhat petty one is the tracking shots curve when they home in instead of a straight ricochet like xigbar's do

yeah i couldnt fix that for the life of me 😫 also couldnt make them bounce correctly cause they stopped tracking after the first bounce -.-

[@therecusant]

We wanted to change the second formchanges reticule to look like that but the game only allows one generic one for both shooter keyblades so we had to settle for what you see here in order for it to fit both Ansem and Xigbar

[@mrmaelstrom5264]

@@therecusant honestly im perfectly ok with that. While it may not have the same feel as what was shown in previous titles, you cared enough to make something out of it, regardless of what would be missing. In the end, it's still very cool.

[@martaeviouspoellnitx8498]

This is amazing. i kind of wanna see what the other members of the original organization 13 moveset would be like zexion's fighting style would be pretty tricky, im guessing to make.

Thank you ! Next showcase is being worked on already 😄

[@Jamo3K]

I was thinking when the full Shotlock was happening “wish you could focus the arrows on one target like Xigbar did in the KH2 fight”and it immediately did, definitely top 3 forms. I am curious how magic works in this form? Is it still the same as Sora’s arrow gun form? Great job as always guys 💚

[@therecusant]

magic has the custom magic i made and you know from other videos but the animations for it use appropriate double arrowgun and magic launcher stuff. should have shown it in the video probably ... certain spells will still use the character specific animation though.

[@Jamo3K]

@@therecusant oh that makes sense. I guess getting used to seeing them from the short cut menu made me forget lol. What’s next, are we deciding like the poll after the Marluxia video?

[@therecusant]

Thank you ! 😊

[@DrakeDraco2000]

Love that you brought back the rifle from KH2. Combined with the railgun from BBS and the bow from KH3, -chef's kiss-. I was really hoping you had the arrow rain skill in there too and was not disappointed. I have two suggestions for this form: Reload should fully restore Focus. Perhaps taking longer to reload as an offset, or only giving the max if you're completely out of Focus. Or maybe have a "precision reload" thing where it fully restores with a perfectly-timed prompt? If that's possible? Just, the idea of reloading multiple times in succession when each one is worth about 1 Locus shot (maybe more in Critical Snipe) seems a bit... odd. The other is that the explosive shots on Critical Snipe need more... visual distinctiveness? This one might be more of an ask since I know you already used all of the shot assets in the main combo. Maybe a recolored or scaled-up shot?

[@therecusant]

I’ve actually been thinking about that full reload myself tbh. It does feel weird having to use it multiple times in succession. The idea of only being able to use it when focus is empty is a great one though! I’ll look into it! As for the explosive rifle shots, they SHOULD have more distinctiveness and I will eventually update the explosion they cause

[@RandomLap]

@@therecusant I won't even mind if his actual normal attacks take up focus gauge, so it makes full reload not as broken

[@DyxoXinoro]

Ngl, when I read "changes based on vicinity" I thought the close range attacks on Critical Snipe was gonna be based on the shotgun style attacks he has in Days.

[@RandomLap]

Really good! only things I would like to change is in critical snipe, I felt like his sniper animation does not fit (like, when he shoot the sniper he pull the gun way too high like it's a cannon, maybe could have use the animation at 10:20 instead?

This man and everybody contributing to the KH3 MOD community should’ve worked on KH3

LETS DANCE

[@ethanstewart5108]

I know it'd be a lot of extra work but I'd love to see model/voice swaps for the true org. members when the mod is feature complete. These are more than likely the best movesets for these characters we'll ever get in terms of KH3 modding so it'd be nice to actually get to use them on the appropriate characters for fun

[@therecusant]

With our current modding knowledge we can’t just do a model swap and call it a day because most members have very different heights and skeletons. These animations were made specifically for YX skeleton. So a model swap would have to be shrunk/enlarged if the other characters height is not the same as YX’s. The only other way would be to remake every single anim for every single org member which I don’t think anyone in this world has got that kind of time 😅

[@ethanstewart5108]

@@therecusant yeah that's super fair!! They're so close to the original animations that I'd honestly just assumed there was some kind of work around you had found! Thanks for taking the time to write an explanation :)

[@lynnbracken2926]

Would you like for me to do either some cheesy Xigbar one-liners or quote some of his lines from the games

[@JQueezyy]

Xigbar was one of the most easiest bosses but also one of the most difficult bosses as well 😂 All he does is shoot arrows at Sora, Terra, and Aqua Which can easily be blocked and reflected back towards him But the thing that makes it so difficult is all the teleporting and how many arrows are coming at you You have to be on your p’s and q’s and time your blocks correctly, or else he’ll punish you with 20 arrows to the heart

Just tried both Xigbar's and Luxu's weapons and they're both incredibly fun to use! And seeing how this is custom for my comments time for ANOTHER OFF TOPIC QUESTION. For some reason the form gauge names are stuck to their original keyblade names on my end. Like the Sharpshooter's forms still being called Hunny Shooters/Launchers or the Ancient Keyblade still being called Dark Form etc. It's not really the end of the world for me it's just...Idk it just looks cooler?
