Resident Evil 4 Remake - Valley Dynamite Ganados Exploit(?) MegaPhilX 2023-03-29 | I found this weird "exploit" in the valley area. I don't know if anybody else saw this...If you run all the way to this spot where there is a dynamite ganado and you drop on that small roof and hang out under the bridge, you can get into a situation where the dynamite guy(s) will keep throwing dynamite above you and kill most of the other ganados who try to reach you. You won't get hurt by the explosions.This doesn't happen all the time though. Seems it happens only when there is more than one dynamite ganado up there. I think if there is only one, the other enemies have the time to make it to you. I ran all the way there right from the start of the battle. I tried multiple times and sometimes it doesn't happen as shown.Another weird thing is that you can activate the rotating switch from underneath the bridge (seen at the end) so be careful where you are when you press X.This is on PS5 version, Hardcore NewGame.
Star Wars: TIE Fighter - Original 1994 Release Intro MegaPhilX 2022-11-25 | This is the intro of the first version of TIE Fighter before the Collector's CD-ROM version released in 1995. This was the first version I experienced as a kid. Even though the Collector's CD-ROM version had new fancy "3D" versions of some of these space scenes, I still think this original version had better pacing with the music and everything.megaphilx.com

Devil May Cry 5 - How to Dodge Urizens Piercing Tentacle Attack MegaPhilX 2022-10-15 | Urizen's second form where he decides to get up and attack you even while surrounded by tentacles is one of his more difficult forms because of this single tentacle attack, which gave me a lot of trouble. So here is a strategy to help you dodge this annoying attack.megaphilx.com
猫飯店 Delivery Service [Animation] MegaPhilX 2022-10-07 | On Pixiv:pixiv.net/en/artworks/101533467I wanted to make an animation of Shampoo riding her bike. Not too sure why considering a bike is such a pain to draw. I used a 3D model of a bike as a reference. I ended up animating every detail of the bike, like the gears, the chain, the wheels, etc. wen I could have simply created sppedlines to make it simpler. And then there are the pedals which we difficult to properly draw.Only after drawing and animating the entire bike did I draw Shampoo herself. I started with her legs because they have to match the seat and the pedals. The rest of her was easy. I hope you enjoy.If you are interested in commissions, here is more information on my prices and terms:http://megaphilx.com/index.php/home/art/commissionsAll my stuff:megaphilx.comhttp://megaphilx.com/index.php/home/art/illustrationspixiv.net/en/users/16156310twitter.com/MegaPhilXhttp://megaphilx.deviantart.com
Devil May Cry 5 - Bloody Palace (V) Stage 98-101 Completed MegaPhilX 2022-10-07 | Total Play Time: 2:50:18Final Extra Time: 0:23:19Probably my best attempt at all the Urizen forms. Performance against Vergil was pretty sloppy but in the end, I got the job done.Keep in mind you don't get your health back after Stages 98 and 99 so avoid damage as much as you can!Overall strats:Change your controls to these to allow yourself to use and charge moves with both Griffon and Shadow at the same time while doing other stuff:L1: GRIFFONR1: LOCK-ONX: JUMPSQUARE: SHADOWCICRLE: CANE / NIGHTMARETRIANGLE: NOTHING (You can put Shadow on Triangle if you really want to be able to command him while riding on top of Nightmare but it doesn't happen often...)D-PAD: DEVIL TRIGGERL2: AUTO-ATTACKR2: READ BOOKDon't hesitate to summon Nightmare when:A - Both other familiars are stalemated or when your best familiar for the situation (usually Shadow) is stalemated and you really need himB - When an undodgeable attack is coming (for example Vergil's Judgement Cut End and you are badly positioned to get out of it) You gain i-frames when you trigger DT and it shortly makes you invulnerable to Urizen's attack that knock you away.When you see Shadow is about to get hit by a powerful attack (Vergil's Helm Breaker or Final Urizen's punches and kicks), preform a dodge to the side. It will instantly cancel whatever attack Shadow is doing and will teleport him to you and out of harm's waySame thing with Griffon. If you see he's gonna take big damage, do a double jump to cancel whatever he's doing and get him instantly to you.Watch what is going on and dodge whatever is coming your way.Read your book when you have nothing else to do and you need the Devil Trigger energy.If you can afford it, revive your familiars without summoning Nightmare by getting close to them. This will save you some DT energy.Stage 98 (Urizen (sitting)):WATCH THE LASERS! Way too often I find myself distracted looking at my familiars while failing to notice the sweeping lasers are going to hit me.Send Shadow over there and have him spam Skewer (Lock-On +) Back to Forward + Shadow Button) on the boss. Skewer deals a lot of damage so I use it a lot.While Shadow is attacking with melee attacks, keep the Griffon button pressed to charge Blockade 3 (The vertical pillars of lightning) and periodically unleash this attack on the boss.Summon Nightmare when you can't revive your familiars quickly and you'll be done with this fight in no time.Stage 99 (Urizen (standing with tentacles)):Get close to him behind his back if you can. Watch out for when he does his tentacle attack where he spins around though.Spam Shadow's Skewer or whatever melee attack you prefer with him. Remember to do a sideways dodge with Shadow to get him out of harm's way if necessary.Watch out for the boss's long range blue tentacle attack. It always goes after V and it's difficult to dodge. He will always do two of them near the start of the fight. To dodge it, run toward it and jump toward it just before it hit you. After that, look out because it's going to come back behind you again. Jump again toward it in the same fashion to dodge it.When you see Urizen charge his big tentacle attack where he slams into the ground sending his tentacles overhead, just run to this left and jump as the attack lands. If you do it correctly he'll never hit you with this and you can rack up the damage while he recoversSummon Nightmare if needed but for this particular fight, I like to summon Nightmare shortly after breaking Urizen's crystal. After Nightmare appeared, jump on top of him to ride him (Promotion) and perform Illegal Move + Domination (Lock-On + Back to Forward HOLD CIRCLE). This is Nightmare's laser attack. If timed correctly, it should take a good chunk off Urizen's life bar and maybe kill him before he can regenerate his stupid crystal.Stage 100 (Final Urizen):Not too much of an issue until the end... Try to always keep some DT to have Nightmare save your ass when the boss is near death.Again, use Skewer to pile on the damage and try to dodge with Shadow to avoid him getting punched. This battle is easier to follow since there is less mayhem going on so you can focus on dodging with Shadow.WATCH OUT FOR THE LASERS IN THE FINAL PHASE! When you see him creating them, run all the way toward where he is, that way you won't have to deal with those stupid lasers.Stage 101:Dodging with Shadow is important here because Vergil can stalemate him almost instantly.Sneak in Shadow+Griffon combos when Vergil is recovering from an attack.Summon Nightmare when Vergil is in DT, when Shadow is stalemated and you really need him or to get out of a bad situation.DT is important here because activating it makes your familiars invincible. So read that book whenever Vergil is busy doing something else. (Fighting your familiars or doing his attack where he's flying around)
Cuphead - Cala Maria in High Seas Hi-Jinx - S Rank [Expert] MegaPhilX 2022-07-21 | Another one of my favorites because of the music and her dancing animation during her second phase. This fight can go wrong in many ways particularly during the first phase while dodging attacks from her minions and herself at the same time.Some things to keep in mind:Try to perform your parries during the first phase. The second phase doesn't always hand you opportunities and you want the second phase to be over as quickly as possible using your super.Phase 1:Ghost attack - You'll easily dodge this if you are moving up or down as they rush towards you. (Problem is if there are other things in the way when trying to dodge them.)Water Fountain - To be able to dodge whatever she throws at you during this annoying water attack, hold R1 to increase your movement speed and keep moving left and right to lure the water jet away.Mines - try to keep in mind where they blow up to avoid their spread.Sea Urchins - This is your best opportunity for Parries. Look for the pink ones.Yellow Fish - Keep moving in circles. Watch out for when the fish slips out of her hands.Red Fish - Another good opportunity for Parries. Watch out for when the fish slips out of her hands.Phase 2:Use your Super when all the electric eels are around her.Keep shooting at her and her eels while moving in circles. If you keep moving, you'll have less chance of being petrified while a projectile is coming towards you.Phase 3:Stay to the very far left side of the screen and try to position yourself so you'll slip past the obstacles when you get petrified. The green skulls move very slowly towards you the further to the left side you are. Use whatever remaining Super energy you've got.VS Grim Matchstick (Fiery Frolic)youtu.be/u3xrgK7NbNY
Mega Man Unlimited 9th Anniversary Wallpaper MegaPhilX 2022-07-14 | I wanted to do something special for the 9th anniversary of Mega Man Unlimited. This is a time lapse of me drawing this new Mega Man Unlimited wallpaper. I haven't drawn most of these characters in years so it was interesting to draw them with my current skills and tools. My skills have definitely improved and Clip Studio Paint's continuous curve tool makes it so much easier to draw proper curves and clean lines. I also use Blender to made 3D models for certain parts of the drawings. Like JetMan's jet body and NailMan's nail body. I find it less time consuming draw these mechanical parts more accurately without revising them all the time.Happy Mega Man Unlimited 9th Anniversary!

FireMan Stage [NO MISS] [NO DAMAGE] [BUSTER ONLY] MegaPhilX 2022-05-27 | [BUSTER ONLY] = Can only use the Mega Buster[NO MISS] = No shot can miss an enemy. If a shot dings or goes off-screen without dealing damage, it's considered a miss.[NO DAMAGE] = Mega Man can't take any damage.Stay tuned for strats after the successful run.There are two problems with this stage. The first is obviously the room with the fire tunnel where you have to do very precise movements to get through. The second is having to deal with inconsistent enemy movement like the Tackle Fires floating downward and the Killer Bullets near the end. FireMan himself is the easiest thing about this stage, as you can simply jump+fire repeatedly and you'll dodge his attacks all the time.megaphilx.com
IceMan Stage [NO MISS] [NO DAMAGE] [BUSTER ONLY] MegaPhilX 2022-05-26 | [BUSTER ONLY] = Can only use the Mega Buster[NO MISS] = No shot can miss an enemy. If a shot dings or goes off-screen without dealing damage, it's considered a miss.[NO DAMAGE] = Mega Man can't take any damage.For some reason I wanted to put myself through the pain of beating this stage No Miss No Damage, so here we are. Stay tuned for strats after the successful run.One of the most difficult stages in this game but for all the wrong reasons. You'll be failing runs constantly to things that are out of your control like falling through Foot Holders, Foot Holders flying where you don't want them to, missing shots on Pengs and of course everyone's favorite: Big Eye not allowing you to proceed to the boss.The boss himself is always the same so as long as you keep your cool and execute precisely and quickly enough, you can beat him relatively consistently.megaphilx.com
Making of Shampoo Fighting Stance Animation MegaPhilX 2022-05-25 | This is a montage of everything I went through to create this "simple" animation. From the first animation sketch to the final full-color version with colored lines and voice by Waka.Fun Facts:- There are 10 drawings in this animation. 5 of which are minor variations of the other 5 to make her do this fancy move with her right mace. - The eyes and mouth are animated on separate layers.- At first, I didn't want to color the lines and planned to keep the lines black to keep things simple. However I ended up coloring the lines while waiting for Waka to send me her voice clip. It looks so much better.- I originally didn't place to make a background either but I ended up drawing one to do the animation justice.- Her maces are drawn from a 3D model I made.This is the original video:youtube.com/shorts/RWTuL90wevw?feature=shareWhat if we had a Ranma 1/2 fighting game with modern graphics?I wanted to animate Shampoo in a fighting stance. It took me a long time to polish the pose. I also spent a lot of time doing the animation sketch before doing the final lines and colors. I also wanted to add a little variant to the animation so I made her do a little fancy trick with her right mace.I hope you enjoy.Voiced by Waka.Music from Ranma ½: Chonai Gekitou Hen - Shampoo's ThemeOn Pixiv: pixiv.net/en/artworks/98583963megaphilx.com

FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE INTERGRADE - Yuffies Shinra Box Buster SOLDIER Training Top Score MegaPhilX 2022-01-06 | Here's how I did it. You have to destroy every single box.- Notice at 1:42 I trigger a time bonus box through the right wall using Windstorm. It's kinda critical to getting all the boxes in this big room before moving on to the final room.- Use a Throw+Retrieve combo and an Art of War ability to destroy the 1500pt boxes. If you have no - ATB, repeat Throw+Retrieve multiple times - For Magic boxes, use Ninjutsu- For Physical boxes, use Throw+Retrieve as quick transportation or a simple Square Square combo- Use Lv3 Banishment to take out all the 1500pt boxes in the final room- For elevated 1500pt boxes, throw your shurikan, then use Windstorm. The Windstorm will trigger where the shuriken is.

Mega Man X4-5-6 READY Sequence HD Remake MegaPhilX 2021-10-05 | To me, Mega Man X4-5-6 still have the best stage start sequence and my favorite sprites. This is a re-creation of that READY sequence in Clip Studio Paint EX. I took the liberty of doing a few changes to the READY thing for example it changes from normal text to italic, like in the Zero series. I also scaled up a background from Blaze Heatnix's stage and re-drew on top of it. I also re-drew X's sprites in the same way as I did when I made X's victory animation: youtu.be/jZ5mTJRgzuYI've always liked the concept of Blaze Heatnix's stage and always thought it was a shame they didn't animate the background much so I did just that.megaphilx.com

Omega Weapon [No Invincibility Items] & more... [COMMENTATED] - Final Fantasy VIII Remastered MegaPhilX 2021-08-07 | Go to 33:30 for a NO COMMENTARY attempt - More information further in the description00:00 Intro and Character Setup 04:54 Triggering the Boss Fight05:45 Battle Using No Invincibility Items20:17 Battle Using Invincibility Items33:30 Battle Using No Invincibility Items (Close Call Edition)50:18 Bonus: The EndPreparing:Junction 100 Deaths to Status Defense to avoid LV5 Death if your characters have a level that is a multiple of 5.Boost your HP to 9999.Boost your speed and strength as much as you can using junctioned magic or character abilities. You can refine Ultimas, Auras, Full-Lifes, etc. from various items. Use Aura to get Squall/Zell/Irvine to use their limit breaks as often as possible.Have Lion Heart equipped to be able to use the limit break of the same name which will be your best move to deal damage. Unfortunately whether Squall uses it or not is random...Equip the Defend command on two characters (Defend is learned by Brothers and Cactuar. You can't teach Defend to other GFs unfortunately) To boost my speed further and get as many actions as possible without the boss being able to do something, here I have Auto-Haste and Auto-Protect on everyone. To teach GFs Auto-Haste, use an Accelerator item. You can get Accelerators by modding the Kiros Card.To teach GFs Auto-Protect, use a Steel Curtain. You can get a Steel Curtain from refining 20 Adamantines using Eden's GFAbl Med-RF ability.You can get your rare cards back from the CC Club members in the Ragnarok in endgame if you completed the CC Club side quest. This allows you to farm powerful items and abilities.To get Megalixirs:guides.gamercorner.net/ffviii/items/megalixirFighting the boss:The boss' attack order goes as as such:- Always starts from LV5 Death (Kill any character whose level is a multiple of 5 (Bad news if you are at LV100))- Meteor (Non-elemental magic damage to random characters)- Megido Flame (9998 DMG to everyone)- Gravija (Ineffective if you are at 1 HP) -Terra Break (More often than not will kill everyone who is not defending)- Ultima (Heavy non-elemental magic damage to everyone)- Light Pillar (Kill one character)- Start over again from MeteorThe boss might insert random physical attacks and LV5 Death into this mess every once in a while. Not much of a problem if you have decent Evade stats.Start off by casting Meltdown on him to maximize all further damage. (I don't like to summon Doomtrain because it takes longer.Use the boss' wasted turn at the beginning as an opportunity to cast Aura on your damage-dealers at the beginning.Use the item command to consume a Megalixir after the boss casts Meteor in preparation to survive Megido Flame which deals 9998 damage (You have to be at full 9999HP to survive). Use the situation of having your characters at 1 HP as an opportunity to trigger your limit breaks if you're not under the effects of Aura.Keep dealing damage but prepare to use Defend before the boss uses Terra Break. It will make the character invulnerable to physical attacks until he/she takes another action. Gravija always comes before Terra Break so remember this as your cue to use Defend. Heal up you dead character after Terra Break to survive Ultima that comes after. Defend won't protect you from Ultima's magic damage.Light Pillar kills one character so be ready to heal up as well.Have your support character (Rinoa in my case) in standby if you know a character will die so that you can quickly heal.If you really don't know what to do with a certain character's turn and Squall/Zell/Irvine is not on Aura, cast it so you'll have more opportunities to deal damage and take priority over the boss' actions. Or wait and see what happens.You can use a simple Phoenix Down or Life spell to bring a KOed character back if you know a super strong attack is not coming too soon. You can use the low HP of the resurrected character as an opportunity to perform a limit break.megaphilx.com
Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - Selphie Casting The End on Omega Weapon MegaPhilX 2021-08-05 | It deserves it. Rest in peace.The End is the rarest spell in Selphie's arsenal and the strongest spell in the game. It is only available through Selphie's Slot limit break. Basically it does what its name implies. It ends things. Even bosses.It took me a while to get the spell. You have only 1 out of 256 chances to get it if your crisis level is high enough. I accidentally skipped the spell once in a previous attempt. It seemed to have helped to put Selphie in Poison and Darkness status and leave her HP really low. (You're supposed to be under 11.2% HP to reach Crisis Level 4) Oh and another important thing: You have to be on Aura when you select Slot to benefit from Aura and maximize your chances. After that it doesn't matter if Aura runs on as long as you don't exit the Limit interface.For the record, I also fought this boss "legit" (without using The End). It's a pretty intense fight and the boss can kill you quite easily with Megido Flame or Terra Break. You are kinda forced to use a Hero or Holy War item to render your characters invincible to survive the attacks.

1st Sumeragi S+ Rank [Hard] - Azure Striker GUNVOLT MegaPhilX 2021-04-01 | It's only the first mission. I have no idea if I'll attempt the other missions for an S+ rank... The scoring system in this game is pretty merciless. You have to avoid triggering checkpoints in order to increase your score enough to get an S Rank. I use the FEARLESS Kudos Style which means if I get hit once, I lose all my Kudos.
