I haven't been on in quite a while but was pleasantly surprised when I came across this. It would be fun to someday continue that project. I feel like I've missed a lot on these boards!

PS I think there might be a few mirrors hanging in there linking the downloads for that game somewhere.

EDIT: While suffering a hangover, I started recreating some of my sprites -

*Ray, Peter, and Winston - “Metal Slug” style (*peter) :-) …

*Notes:

1] I had a hard time getting Peter's hair right…And I'm STILL not “satisfied” with it (*egon) …One thing I've learned is Bill Murray's hairstyle is hard to do in “sprite form”…

2] I tried to get Egon in the picture, but MSPaint's “resizing” techniques SUCK (*egon) …

*Because the sprites I was working from were tinnnnnnnny, and strained my eyes to look at…

*Thanks :p (*peter)…But wait…There's more:



*Can't have “Ghostbusters” without the ghosts right? :p …

*Note: The one on the far left is a “rip”, NOT an “edit”…I left it in 'cause I thought it looked neat (*peter) …

Wait you're resizing to work on the sprite? Why not just zoom in?

*Nonononono - I do “zoom”, but if the original sprite is tinnnny upon completeing, I “resize it” so it's not so hard on the ‘ol eyes :p …

*Unless of course if the sprite is big enough already (*peter) …

*What I was complaining about is that somewhere in making the “Metal Slug” sprites, which obviously Egon was done first, I tried to resize the rest of the “fab four” to Egon’s “enlarged” size , they came out alot bigger…And when I tried to subtract to make them all equal , they came out VERY skewed…

*Hope this clears things up (*peter) …

*Cheers.
