C. K.'s Mecha-Koopa Pack 10

The Trails in the Sky trilogy is quite good!

- Adds Anelace Elfead and her S-craft follower!

...is the primary thing. But there are a few other changes!

- Casual Koopa is now 3, 7
I decided it was silly of me to keep restatting Literally Myself to be the stats i actually play. I can commit to just being those stats

- You'll notice this is now a lua pack!
Presently, this is only for one thing - if you use 3D models, all of my characters that have models now have custom trick animations thanks to Simpler AnimaL! If you don't play with 3D models, the only change is that tricking left/right will use neutral instead of lookback, on account of how the lua works.

That's all for now! I miiiiight go on another break - I want to get to the Other trails games - but I'm also conscious that I'm closing in on my projected final goal of 17 characters, at which point I'm likely to call the pack completed. So that may happen! at some point!

Adds Profreshional! Stats are 3 Speed, 1 Weight. He also comes with 4 new palettes - Grizzco, Kaiju, Crowned, and Pulse.

This could be it for me for a while! I really wanted to get my main promo image to stop having that one-character-sized hole in it, and now it's filled. I do want to make more 3D models, which you can find here https://mb.srb2.org/addons/c-koopas-3d-models.7847/ , but those are way less commitment and I think I might even want to take a break from that. I don't think this is the end of the pack forever, though! I will be back eventually. Probably. I think. All I'm saying is I'm not putting up the FINAL UPDATE sign just yet

Okay so here's the thing. Let me level with you. I've been working on 3D models for my characters and followers, and I'm just about to release the first batch. You won't see it right away, because it needs to be approved, but it's on the way. Which is cool! However, I beefed it when making one of my very first followers, and it ended up using two freeslots instead of one, which is Really Inconvenient for 3D models! So this update just fixes that. Once the separate 3D model post comes out, I'll link to it! And while I have the opportunity to fix this incredibly minor thing - one of Mikoto's rivals has been changed from Cream to Maria. This one's for you, singular Alouette fan on the SRB2 message boards

Hi!
I'm pretty tired! I have other hobbies id like to try and more university things to handle, and even within ring racers id like to try different things. I've been sitting on the mole knight release for a while for sake of waiting until I have another character, but it's been long enough i'd like him to be out the door. He's animated! That's cool! This is not the end for this pack, but it does mark "I'd like to take a break and not be arbitrarily holding onto my already finished work"

here he is! big fan of mole knight. shovel knights a great game

Say hey!! This half-update is being pushed without any characters because I noticed some errors and rough spots I really wanted to fix ASAP. And so they have been! The list, as best I recall, is as follows:

Guy Shishioh used to have the thing where the default asym kartmaker is lacking wheelshine in a few places. No longer!
Guy also had rough color issues as a result of a really unconventional startcolor - everything on him that Should've been white was recolorable. Fixed, and his colors have also been tweaked to be more natural on palettes outside his default.
Mazinger Z's palette has been tweaked - previously the Scrander (the wings) would have its details disappear on many palettes. Also, its wheels used to be very dark green??
A few characters - I believe this was Mazinger Z, Jean, Guy, and Fiend - just didn't have their SSIGs. Now they do!

Additionally, we have four new followers! King Crimson and Fiend Scythe are both associated with existing characters, and I wanted to give them the time they needed - Fiend Scythe has a massive hitconfirm of some 40 frames, and King Crimson is semi-transparent! This update also includes Muu Kunosoki and Alexis Kerib.

super tiny hotfix because i'd forgotten to put fiend's SSIG into the properties file. sorry!!

Smaller and faster update! We did it! I'm about to have my schedule shift a lot + I'm at exactly the right number of characters and followers to have a really pretty promo graphic right now, so this is where I'm sending out version 6. More still to come with time!

This update adds:
2 racers - Baron von Bats, Fiend
1 follower - Bat Wand

And also, we're doing away with the double versions! Turns out I never needed to have a lua version at all! So it's all folding back into soc. Now, I MIGHT move the whole pack to being a purely cosmetic lua pack, on account of I want to try some cool looking stuff with followers, but we'll see. For now, this should make files easier!

It's another rebrand!! We're going full variety pack and doing whatever we want now. Mecha fans, I've not forgotten you, take Lilith as a sign that more is coming. Also, King Crimson follower will happen at some point, comma, probably! Keep tabs on this space if you're interested! For now, this is the biggest update I'd like to do for a while - future updates will probably be smaller, and maaaybe more frequent in return.

This update adds:
4 racers - Diavolo, Tsumugi, Jean, Bowser's Mech
5 followers - Mega Mushroom, Mini Mushroom, Cosmog, Minior, Ashnard

tiny hotfix because i forgot to remove some excess generated death sprites. sorry!!!

It's the Gaogaigar update! I like Gaogaigar a lot. Comes with 2 racers and 1 follower.

Guy Shishioh, 8 speed 8 weight
Mikoto Utsugi, 3 speed 6 weight

Mamoru (Amami-but-his-last-names-not-part-of-the-follower) with a hurt and hitconfirm animation

Barring any change of plans, the next update will be a small one as I briefly pivot away from the mecha content. We'll be back, though!
