SN: Sorry for this request being late as it took some time as looking for both of these new characters (Ruby and Orihime) that Jacob wanted for his next request. Also, there were some issues with an error that prevented the chosen characters to be successfully loaded up and ready for battle.
I first thought it was certain characters (like the JUS versions; especially the cell-shaded anime chars). Apparently the problem wasn’t any of them, except for the type of screenpack that I was using that can only handle the characters that’s capable enough to handle the processing of its own.
Now we have one more Christmas special left, before ending them for this month of December as we’ll be heading for New Year’s. Plus, I have one request to do, before the time of 2024 comes.
Hey, Jacob and everyone! And also, Merry late Christmas! 🎉🎊🎄🎁 Here’s a real intense, yet sweet simul with these kickass heroines of their own franchises: Lumine & Noel (seen from each Christmas specials by Jacob and Blaine), facing off with both Ruby & Orihime, requested by Jacob Smallwood.
Since, we already have introduced Lumine from Genshin Impact & Noel from BlazBlue, it’s time to introduce to both Ruby & Orihime.
Ruby Rose is the one of the main protagonists from the American CGI cel-shaded anime web series, RWBY (pronounce as “Ruby”); who is the founder and leader of the Team RWBY.
She’s the daughter of Summer Rose (deceased) & Taiyang Xiao Long; also a huntress (like her older half-sister, Yang and their friends, as well as their sister-in-arms: Weiss Schnee & Blake Belladonna) who have been trained from the former Beacon Academy (now dysfunctional).
She wields a High-Caliber Sniper-Scythe called “Crecent Rose” as her primary and only weapon of choice. She first appeared in her trailer aka the “Red” Trailer.
Orihime Inoue (井上 織姫, Inoue Orihime) is one of the main protagonists and supporting character from both manga and tv series: Bleach (ブリーチ, Burīchi). She’s a regular human that lives in Karakura Town and ex-student of Karakura High School (空座一校, Karakura Ichikou).
Also, she’s one of the friends and love interest (later on) of the central main protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki (黒崎 一護, Kurosaki Ichigo) that later becomes his wife and they had a son together named, Kazui Kurosaki (黒崎一勇, Kurosaki Kazui).
Okay, now that we got those two introduced, let’s go ahead and talk about what happened; especially this match. Originally was using Old Gamer’s redesigned HD remake of his MUGEN Infinite Character Arena (MICA) and reusing MIMCHOU’s Merry Christmas! Stage (the same one from Blaine’s older Christmas specials: #4).
Only this time with the Winterfest music from Fortnite (can’t keep on using Mariah Carey’s Christmas song, like thrice as already gotten a Copyright Claim; being yellow).
Besides, it’s upbeat and catchy enough for these ladies’ Christmas 対決 (Taiketsu, showdown). I gave it a shot and I ended up getting a character error for one of the characters: Inoue Orihime (TYBW) JUS By Mounir. I was pretty confused and couldn’t understand why something like this happens? I try it again as I already have the 4GB installed and using it. Yet, still no luck.
Try a different approach as substituting Mounir’s JUS Orihime with Rakion’s JUS Nolle Silva and gave it a go. Same as it was and it was starting to bother me. Trying to find what was wrong between each one of them with the sff file of their sprites in FF3. Just to find with number of issues detected.
I don’t know? Thought these two look fine to me and they shouldn’t be giving any problems with the screenpack that’s 1.1 and also using the 4GB patch exe. Decided to go back and give JUS Orihime a chance. Only this time, testing her by doing a single match for each one. It worked once in a while, but other times a character error shows up before the match begins. And this time, the character error for this time was OHMSBY’s Ruby.
I been trying this out a couple times where the JUS and also the anime-style characters on single has worked. And yet, it suffers a character error when retrying with each character.
