Sol Badguy (Outdated build)

Description
This is the final update of the old Sol build from a year ago. There is a much better upgraded Sol (by me) here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2229901990

***Also, please try Roob, my second character - out NOW on the Steam Workshop!***

Patches:

-Ver. 1.11
-----Minor hitbox adjustments, Down Special visual adjustment.

-Ver. 1.1
-----Multiple hitbox adjustments, Down Special crash bug fix.

FOOTAGE (limited, it's just combos and WIP stuff): MY TWITTER @waffles_ns

Features:
-A fully unique moveset compared to Sandbert!
-Basic colors that follow the ROAACO (if you don't know what that is, feel free to ask me through Discord DM)

Plans:
-Finishing/polishing any missing/new attacks (the optional knockdown part of up special for example)
-Voice clip RNG (not included in this build because it isn't done yet!)
-Custom VFX & SFX
-Alternate colors from GGXX
-A recreation of the Gatling system from Guilty Gear (a form of on-hit attack cancelling)
-Move adjustments to help them fit into Rivals more (each attack initially had identical frame data to GGXX/Rev 2)

Specials:
-Gunflame (Neutral Special)
-----A traveling projectile that stops at the edges of surfaces!
-----If used during a run, you keep some of your momentum!
-----If you let go of B during startup, you do a fake-out, while holding B spawns the projectile! The fake-out has less endlag.
-----Ground-only

-Bandit Revolver (Forward Special)
-----A two-part knee into spinning kick that spikes!
-----Hold B to use Bandit Bringer, a stronger spike with noticeable startup
-----Both put you in free fall if you don't hit anyone, so aim!

-Volcanic Viper (Up Special)
-----A two-part flaming uppercut!
-----Temporarily invulnerability on startup!

-Wild Throw (Down Special)
-----A difficult-to-hit command grab that leads to an untechable spike!
-----Ground-only

Notable A-button Attacks:
-----Up air is a two-hit attack with ZERO recovery frames!?
-----Forward tilt has temporary upper-body invulnerability!

Tried him out, & he's a legit 1:1 Sol Badguy

I would know, because I main him in Guilty Gear

This is damn near perfect! I love it. Only thing I'd really change is the Gun Flame sprite. (and of course the added voices) great mod!

What I think I'm gonna do from now on is that all of my characters will receive patches at the same time. So when Roob gets a patch, so will Sol and any characters that come after them

That said, things on my end are gonna start slowing down, so updates (and characters) are going to be a bit less frequent. Also, to clarify on Sol and Roob's preview images: characters 'W', 'B', and 'Y' (the rest of Team RWBY) are coming next, and they will be in order for the most part. I plan on releasing a minimum of 6 characters, and those three are characters 3, 5, and 6.

I hope you look forward to seeing who character 4 is, I think I'll have fun making them!

this is a really amazing mod but is there a way to make him slightly bigger or taller? none of his attacks have any reach even tho he has a sword

Found a glitch with down b. if you use down b, then get hit out of the move by the person you're grabbing, the person you grab then gets frozen. unable to do anything at all.

Maybe consider dust sweep for down tilt? Also, while I understand the idea of giving smashes more range than tilts his side tilt feels really short range compared to other characters, so I might suggest putting his current side smash (his Far Slash in GG I believe) as his F Tilt and replacing the f smash attack with Fafnir.
