► GENERAL INFO
As the name implies, this mod allows players to control Guizhang in the 70 Man Battle (time trial mode only). His models, full moveset, and even voice grunts were all successfully swapped with Ryo’s, making it a close to perfect character mod. I tried to keep it as close as the Guizhang CPU you see fight alongside Ryo in the story fight, with a few liberties taken here and there.
This video will hopefully serve as a guide, teaching you everything I know about Guizhang’s Diving Swallow Style, showcasing each move in detail and sharing some of my observations.
► WHERE TO PLAY
At the moment, the mod is Dreamcast-exclusive, so it can only be played on Dreamcast emulators or real hardware. That’s mostly because the combat system is in its pure state on DC (with none of the inconsistencies the HD remaster introduced) and I’m also only familiar with Dreamcast modding. Mod is also based on the Shenmue Undub Definitive Edition, meaning it features Japanese audio and English subtitles (not that it really matters for FREE battles).
I may create a PC version for the HD remaster if there’s enough demand. Let me know if you’d like to see it happen!
► HOW TO PLAY | Short Version
I’ve provided a custom version of Shenmue Undub Definitive Edition with my mod built in. All you need to do is download the build (there are actually 4, more info below), turn on your preferred emulator and run my GDI image on it. I’ve also included a VMU save to unlock the 70 Man Battle time trial in case you don’t have it; download that as well and put it in the folder the emulator checks for save files.
There are 4 different builds for this mod. In short, build 1 (modded moveset) and build 3 (vanilla moveset) are the ones you want to consider. It really depends on whether you want to use my custom moves or not (the ones I showcase in the video). Build 2 and 4 are just variants of Build 1 and 3 with music stripped out (meant for speedrunners).
