How to change character skins?

[Chip Megabyte]

So the new Chipzel and Danganronpa update says that you can change any character's skin to one of Spike Chunsoft's characters, but I can't seem to find the "Change Skin" option that they mention. Help?

[Henry Ex]

I can't find it either. It's not in any menus available to me.

I'm playing vanilla though, without Amplified. Maybe they forgot the option for people without DLC. I checked the sprite folder, and the sprite sheets are there, but no way to select them in-game that i could find.

It's in the options menu, right under Change Soundtrack.

It seems to require DLC despite not having any Zone 5 songs in the soundtrack or supporting any of the DLC content.

The Dangan soundtrack just completely does not fit the game either.

Right, that explains it then. Thanks a lot.

Maybe it's just because I really like Danganronpa, but I completely disagree. I'm so much more into it with this music, as much as I like the vanilla soundtrack too.

Eh, i find it incredibily jarring and unfitting to the game's cheery pixel theme too. It's not bad music on it's own but damn does it feel like it was made for a far more serious game rather then this, or something like that, like, there's no... boogie, no fun in it... :P Doesn't help that it doesn't even match in the slightest with the shopkeeper, either.

Everything else so far was retro-ish or otherwise made/themed to fit the game despite it's genres, this seems to be the exception. Ah well, suppose it's a option (though i wish i could decide what shows up in Random soundtrack though, to exclude some of the ones that don't work too well for me).

Agreed, the soundtrack seems more like the grab bag custom music someone made. I was pleasantly surprised with the higher detailed sprites, but then realized that they don't come with effects like electricity working properly, and well for Nocturna you can NOT tell apart whether you are in bat form or not very easily, so if you panic transform or get knocked into bat form due to low HP you might be thrown off a lot.

I dislike most crossovers because the vast majority of them does not put in enough effort to appeal to anyone that is not a fan of both already. But since it was a free update I guess there is no reason to whine, I am more than happy to have Chipzel on board and could close an eye on the other thing and its flaws...

Chipzel +1

Beat Monk as soon as i set that soundtrack, so clearly it is the best. Plus Zone 1-2 sounds seriously great!

Hi! The free update is for everyone, whether they are using only the base game, or with Amplified. There is a bug that's causing the "change skin" option to not appear for people playing only the base game. We will be fixing this issue as soon as possible.

[frumple]

Thank you very much for working on a fix.
Cheers

[dolochor]

yeah the change skin option is under change music in order to activate you scroll left and right until you find the one you want.

I barely even know what a Danganronpa is and I really liked it - it's a shame that they didn't extend it to also cover Zone 5, though, as shifting from one to the other was a little jarring.

Is it entirely music from the other game, though? Unedited? I ask because when I was playing through just now, some of the melodies in a couple of the tracks seemed kind of similar to a couple from the vanilla Necrodancer OST (I think particularly in Zone 3).

They're remixes of songs from Danganronpa

Well now they removed Danganronpa songs from appearing in Random mode. Thanks a lot GUUUUUUUUYS.
