Oroku_Saki said on September 1, 2011 at 3:20 p.m.

WTF! There's semen everywhere, going to download them right now.

Chryo said on September 1, 2011 at 3:22 p.m.

Before the whiners come in. Yes, those are 2D backgrounds, they still offer some variety while looking ok, and they help people with old PCs/non gaming laptops run the game at decent FPS too.

I can run the game maxed out but I might get one of these backgrounds for the training stage. I'm just bored of the default white and stripes and every dude I fight online ends up picking it. I don't really use the floor lines for spacing anymore so whatever.

Capcom should give us DLC stages along with DLC costumes

jimk23 said on September 1, 2011 at 3:28 p.m.

:( I wish we could do something like this for the consoles...
This is nice

jimk23 said on September 1, 2011 at 3:31 p.m.

This stages are

jimk23 said on September 1, 2011 at 3:33 p.m.

This stages are waaay better than the default ones btw.
I wish capcom would release better stages( I want the grass plains)

MrPavy said on September 1, 2011 at 3:34 p.m.

I wish Capcom Would bring back Classic Stages It would be sick seeing Balrogs Vegas stage in 3D

doesn't work if you just do a 2d pattern as BGI. it just looks not right when the camera moves. nice as WIP, but needs to be modeled in 3d.

Sorry it's kinda off topic but

Can you mod char on steam for ssf4 ae?
If so can anyone give me the path to where the char directory is located?

Thanks

BTW: Awesome background,I would say better then the original ssf4ae backgrounds.

NINJA said on September 1, 2011 at 3:57 p.m.

jimk23 - Yeah sure, anything to diss Capcom's job. LOL It could be a turd on a rainbow background that you and more people would say that anyways.

These are horrible. They can be even more bland than the first SFIV ones. And I thought that was impossible...

FreeMarn said on September 1, 2011 at 3:59 p.m.

stupid question but how i would do this if i bought my version on steam i dont know where to find the game files haha

#14

Chryo said on September 1, 2011 at 4:05 p.m.

@FreeMarn, Keep_It_Flashy

Try

Steam\steamapps\common\super street fighter iv\resource\battle\chara

Steam\steamapps\common\super street fighter iv\resource\battle\stage

I don't have the Steam version (region locked so I had to buy it from Gamersgate) but it should be something like that.

kara said on September 1, 2011 at 4:09 p.m.

DLC in bound?

#16

RandomJohn said on September 1, 2011 at 4:12 p.m.

Looks pretty cool.

#17

akumous said on September 1, 2011 at 4:38 p.m.

Regardless if they are 2D or not these are well done and the characters look great in them. It is a bloody shame Capcom is neglecting the one thing the fans wants the most, EXTRA stages that are reminiscent of the games of old. instead, they are just bombarding us with extra costumes.

#18

TheCoolSage said on September 1, 2011 at 4:47 p.m.

Wow! These stages looks pretty cool, somehow better than the stages Capcom made.

#19

JasonLee said on September 1, 2011 at 4:54 p.m.

Cool? Sure.

Better? Not even close.

Nice evil Ryu fighting at naxxramas lol

#23

BisonBetterBeGoodInSSF4 said on September 1, 2011 at 5:11 p.m.

the majority of these stages are better then the ones we have now in SF4. could be due to the fact that theyre new? or just because theyre better. i especially love the one with Ryu and Oni in the forest temple. reminds me of Alpha Generations.

#24

Aluppoj said on September 1, 2011 at 5:18 p.m.

I think people are missing the fact that these BG's aren't even rendered! So by default they are WORSE than the ones we already have!

That being said... They look cool, and I'd give my left nut for a 5 stage dlc pack!

#25

Keep_It_Flashy said on September 1, 2011 at 5:32 p.m.

@ Chryo

Thanks man, I have been looking for this for so long.

Thanks again

#26

zombiebrian said on September 1, 2011 at 5:44 p.m.

idk i prefer that they are static tbh. 1 cause i like the training stage for that reason and 2 if your running on a low spec pc its gotta be better

#27

boobee_cakes said on September 1, 2011 at 5:51 p.m.

This just gave me an idea.

Why has no one modded SFIV to have parries, get rid of Revenge meter to have a more traditional meter system, speed up the game, etc. Pretty much "fix" the game to those that hate SFIV.

For the red and blue flash, the yellow flash from EX's can used for the parry.

The focus attack or something similar can be used for the parry animation. One of Ryu's taunts is similar to his parry stance for example.

I like SFIV series, but it would be a cool thing to do, similar to how there's a mod for Smash Bros Brawl, to make it more like Melee.

#28

zombiebrian said on September 1, 2011 at 5:53 p.m.

@29 or you could just go play 3S

#29

boobee_cakes said on September 1, 2011 at 5:55 p.m.

*Correction*

For the red and blue flash, the yellow flash from EX's can be changed in color to blue and red and used for the parry.

L45R said on September 1, 2011 at 6:29 p.m.

Yes...hope the console versions will have this somehow...The Old Cemetery & Courtyard by the Sea our my favorites.

#31

exspes said on September 1, 2011 at 6:56 p.m.

To quote Chris Hu "Das mad chit, das gatlike" :D The one in the first pic with Hakan and Blanka is my fav, lots of depth (everybody loves depth) and lovely colours. Looks like a stage from MK with the faces and blood and stuff :)

#32

hursh said on September 1, 2011 at 7:07 p.m.

damn honda looks sick with those tats.

#33

Psycho said on September 1, 2011 at 7:41 p.m.

I think this mode is suppose to be for old pc's, it removes the rendering of the backgrounds I believe.

#34

CBX said on September 1, 2011 at 8:19 p.m.

wow capcom needs to take a note from these mods most of them look better then the actual stages we got in the game

#35

denaycous_dee85 said on September 1, 2011 at 8:19 p.m.

PC is banging!!!!!!! How come my console version look like this??? FREAKING AWESOME MANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! }8O__________________

dommafia said on September 1, 2011 at 8:37 p.m.

A LOT of people here are commentating just based on the pictures lol... these are not 3D stages.

#37

pip said on September 1, 2011 at 10:32 p.m.

These stages are not better than Capcom's, they are just in 2d, so that people with low end computers can run the game more smoothly. They replace the stages background with a 2D pic to add diversity instead of being forced to use only the trainning stage background.
The increased FPS is around 30-40 FPS.

#38

R4HU1 said on September 1, 2011 at 11:33 p.m.

too sick

#39

Aluppoj said on September 1, 2011 at 11:57 p.m.

@40

They (the people) don't understand that. They see the pictures and say "Whoa, better than Capcom!", like retards.

Yes people, they look cool... But they're just STATIC IMAGES! like a screen saver! Certainly NOT better than what we already have!

A real stage dlc pack would be amazing! But I'm blown away by how quick ppl are to down Capcom on the hard work they put in!

I feel like I could post a BG image of a TURD and you mental cases would say "Whoa, better than Capcom!"

Pathetic.

doshu said on September 2, 2011 at 12:04 a.m.

Oh my, I made the news it seems^^.

Well, glad to see that my work brings joy to most people :). It really all started because I have a crappy PC and I didn't want to spend all my time playing the game with no background (just try it once, it's...dark and gloomy).

So yes, those are all stages made to be like the Training Stage, except they add new a new background image. The original stages, being in 3D, will look better, but that's not the point hey ?

Anyway, as I said, for those just wanting to change the Training Stage, just check the AE mod wiki often, I'm putting all of my stage online day by day (around 40 stages - 21 from the mod, all the rest being not seen yet).

http://aemods.pbworks.com/w/page/4488...

And if you have any questions, just drop by the forums here or at Shoryuken :)

PS: I'll write a tutorial on how to build that kind of mod sometime soonish.

seforin said on September 2, 2011 at 12:42 a.m.

Im happy this guy got this stuff going.

but I wish he would have spelt my name right

it's

S-E-F-O-R-I-N

NOT

sephorin :p

(I thought he was going to take these and use the full 3D stages. not flat 2D planes..Zipped up all that work for nothing :S)

doshu said on September 2, 2011 at 12:45 a.m.

Sorry Seforin, seems I wasn't carefull enough. I'll correct that right away :).

@angelrebirth: I love you too ;)

#45

doshu said on September 2, 2011 at 1:56 a.m.

By the way, it might be a good idea to precise in the news the nature of the mod (2D stages, not 3D) and the aim it was built for (low-end PCs). It might avoid some bitchin'^^.

Also, 2 of the news' pictures are from stages not included in the mod, but recently made available as single Training Stages. Wouldn't want to deceive anyone with that...

#46

capcomdointhingsright said on September 2, 2011 at 5:59 a.m.

Character specific stages have been the bigggest casualty in Street Fighters transition to 3D

On a different note... Anyone notice how the 'new' stages in UMVC3 are looking set to be some of the most bland in the history of fighting games?!

#47

Nago said on September 2, 2011 at 7:17 a.m.

@49
Bland stages for a cashgrab "update" of a game that had 0 effort put into it in the first place?! Shocking.

#48

kidvid711 said on September 2, 2011 at 7:36 a.m.

aww. I expected too much. I thought the 2D background would at least move.

Skins mods is what I'm mostly interested in.

#49

Stompnik said on September 2, 2011 at 8:50 a.m.

I would buy for those! New BGs are desparately needed!

#50

Stompnik said on September 2, 2011 at 8:50 a.m.

"Buy those" is what I meant...lol.

#51

doshu said on September 2, 2011 at 9:11 a.m.

Nope, no movement possible with that kind of stage. It's as static as it comes :p.

As for more new backgrounds, just check the wiki I gave the link for before, there's gonna be a lot of them coming soon.

#52

Aluppoj said on September 2, 2011 at 11:26 a.m.

@doshu

Just to clarify, I'm not "Bitchin" about your mod. I think it's a pretty cool idea. And for what they are, they look great.

However, I am "Bitchin" about the low IQ tards that believe you've created NEW rendered BG's for SF4. Then they say that static "screen saver" images are BETTER than the Rendered 3D BG's that Capcom provided!

#53

Mrb20028 said on September 2, 2011 at 11:28 a.m.

Maybe Capcom should make DLC stages that I know some people would look forward too. I love the stage on Street Fighter Alpha 2 where it's storming. That would be nice to see in 3D.

@Aluppoj

Sorry if I offended you with my choice of words, I wasn't aiming at nobody in particular.

As for the 2D vs 3D stuff, well, it all depends on personal taste I would like to say. I know some people who doesn't like a few of the original stages (like "Crumbling Lab") and who asked me to just change those stages. I've "met" also one or two other guy saying that they prefer those 2D renders to the 3D ones.

As for me, I would definitely go for the 3D ones if my PC was up to it. But I'm new to the game, and maybe some people who are not are just tired of seing the same stages everytime they play, so they end up wanting my mod rather than the 3D stages...

Finally, I would like to have half the skill needed to do 3D rendered stages, but I don't. So I'll do what I can do, 2D stages ;)

#56

Aluppoj said on September 2, 2011 at 2:38 p.m.

Again, for what they are... They look great. Nice job. I'd love to see what you could do with a fully rendered stage! That would be cool.

I wish Capcom would do some stage dlc!!!!
