Nik Pi Jade's color is very good like this, do you want to go back to mega's original color? Will it be possible to improve the colors on the character selection screen?

He doesnt want to go back to the original MD color... He wants to go back to his first palette update he did in the first version.

About Jades palette, it feats good with old umk3 sprite, but bad with new converted sprite from this hack, because sprite convertation was made through the ass

Is Jade's palette of your screenshot the original one of the official MD version? Or the one of your first modification? Anyway it looks very very well because it looks almost exactly like the Arcade version

This is was modified savestate by me as concept for hack of my good friend. But, he stopped his work, and I get my palette to my hack.
As I said, this palette feats great with sprite from vanilla umk3, but not good with this new sprites  :-\

Well, i think Jade's palette of your first rom was very accurated, and doesn't look bad at all. I was looking carefully at Ermac's palette and despite it looks cool, i think it maybe need a little little adjustment. But its only my opinion and it already looks very well.

Yo guys! I mostly done updating, and tomorrow or later- I'll post new version! I just need to done some VS screens.

extra or hidden UMK3 fighters

Jhonny Cage could be added ? .... he is always left out in the Mega Drive / Genesis versions of MK3 and UMK3. ( could share block with Sonya as hidden ) plus + ( cyber smoke could share its block with human smoke as hidden ) / ( ermac share block with chameleon )

Quote from: Nik Pi on October 26, 2022, 10:30:17 AMHello everyone, I apologize for the late answers, but I want to clarify the situation:

1) I'm not going to make UMK3 from scratch on a new engine. Excuse me. I said this, I think, a few months ago..
2) Nemesis_c is in an awkward situation... I can't tell you any more. He does not give the code without the consent of r75shell, and he does not give me his contact :|
3) The hack is stopped (for obvious reasons). But, don't despair. After all, you have a version with graveyard music! Maybe someday I will be able to find a person who can disasm a rom like or an original game and start my work, but I don't know..

Anyway, I'm busy with other projects right now, and studying. Please stop constantly asking about hack updates. As soon as there is news, I will definitely inform you immediately. You can be sure)

I want to say that you should not lose hope, but also not pray for a new version. I did everything I could (with the exception of the r75shell letter, but that will be later), and I am proud that I somehow extended the life of this gorgeous project

Be healthy and happy. I hope for your understanding.
can cyber subzero be added ?

cartridge_rom: if it were possible to add Johnny Cage, Baraka and Raiden it would be practically Trilogy, missing only Kitaro and Goro, the problem is not having the source code :'(

cartridge_rom

I comment it because human smoke and chameleon are inside the original game code ... it was intended to add them but with the rush to launch did not finish chameleon and remained in the hidden code.

Regarding Johnny Cage is the only character that was excluded from the original MK3 and UMK3 update (because of problems with the actor) but was finally added very late in the "mix" of Trilogy as with chameleon.

These fighters are possible in MK3 / UMK3 as they are in the original code... just add Cage who was removed from the original game.

The rest of characters like raiden, baraka, goro, kintaro ... do not belong to this title ... it would look like a Trilogy as you comment

Hopefully they will share the source code, cheers

cartridge_rom: I didn't know that Johnny Cage's code is already in the game, but even so without the source code I think it's difficult unless you have a lot of hacking skills, it would be great to have him in this game

This hack is about making UMK3 as close as possible to its arcade version. Its not about making it MK Trilogy.
The only character that was originally included into the original rom files is Chameleon, there isnt anything about Johnny Cage because he wasnt intented to be part of the lore at this point of the story, thats because he was dead.

The only thing this hack needs is to bring back the first Jade's modified color palette, nothing more than this
