pretty nice mod but too far broken. Easy spamming, and too large hitbox that doesn't sync with the animation.

Nice work tho.
6/10

one of the most fun characters to play, i had a BLAST playing her
10/10
in terms of balancing she doesn't seem too bad at all !

the meter builds up way too slowly, it rarely comes in to play

as a lover of tenshi, i can approve of this mod. i will soon get my tenshi fumo.

I see, thank you.

Install used to have a shorter max duration which was the length of the ride the fire clip. I guess I never made it longer when I made install longer. There was an attempt at keeping her file size down but 20 more alternate install themes later and it got out of hand...

the Ride the Fire install music doesn't seem to loop properly, it seems to just start back at the beginning on the 45 second point of the song. is it intentional?

Do you mind sending me a DM? I was wondering how you coded the longer charge window for Tenshi's strongs. Thanks!

I went to check but she should still have the same mystial alt and theme as launch It hasn't been changed unless there's a bug happening I don't know about.

i'm really late to this but rip the mystia alt..

It's been awhile since my initial impressions/posts, but I just wanted to say that Tenshi is still extremely fun, and I still play her regularly with my friends! Thank you very much for blessing us with this iteration of the character.

Ahhh okay I get it, ty for the explanation.

She's fine for competitive play, character has been through a balancing gauntlet and afaik is generally considered perfectly fine, I just don't like dealing with the fallout of tournaments and stuff so I put that as a disclaimer on my characters. I don't mind changing stuff if people dm me something they genuinely believe is wrong that needs addressing but I prefer to stay out of competitive workshop as a developer.

This character is really well-made, congrats man, it's a shame it's not balanced enough for competitive play, either way really great character, I hope someone makes a balanced version eventually.
VMLowell What does it you mean by flanderization?

I don't know what causes this and I've had opportunities to explore it with people who had it in the past but my best guess is something went wrong with rivals because it usually resolves itself eventually and the music volume returns to normal. It can also be caused by low volume on the SFX channel or BGM channel since we can't actually play sounds on the BGM channel I had to use the SFX channel and attempt to copy the current volume settings from the BGM channel onto that.

For some reason the install music is really quiet for me.

mubonita. es la fav de mi hermano

Alt page, the 2nd page of alts isn't full so not all of them change, default doesn't change either.

What are the numbers you can toggle on her portrait in the character select?

Is it me or the new patch with the yuuto alt has a bug where ride the fire doesnt play properly with that alt when doing the input.

I've legitimately not seen a better understanding and implementation of Tenshi's character outside of Tempest of Heaven and Earth. I almost want to thank you solely for seemingly being one of the few people not blinded by flanderization and fandom memes, but you're mod is amazing on so many levels beyond that; great design, artwork, mechanics.

Instantly one of my favorites, thank you for all your work.

The Tenshussy is crazy

On all colors:
Attack + Taunt gives you the Last Word theme from Hopeless Masquerade.
214214+Special gives you Ride the Fire, Sol Badguy Dragon install theme from Guilty Gear Xrd.

On certain colors:
Holding down durring the activation of normal install on Sans and Sacramentum alts gives you different music and different colors. Sacramentum is the tournament champion alt so there's two colors you can toggle between by tapping down during round start.

what were the button combinations to change tenshi's peach install

I should try that tech on a stage boss.

The taunt input is the easiest way for me to use Peach Install since it's mostly consistent, easy to remember, & fast to do. Would it be possible to make it so the other music plays if you push a different direction on the D-pad or maybe if you tilt the right stick up & taunt? Because I like both tracks but pushing special & attack is just so much more awkward in a fight.

Regardless, she's really fun. Her moves are cool & the visuals & music make winning with Peach Install really satisfying.

Thank you! Will redownload.

A really funny tech you can do is if you have less than 50% meter you can cancel jab 1 into taunt and cancel taunt into jab 1 again and effectively rapid jab by mashing attack and taunt. This happens because she has an alternate install theme that activates using taunt+attack but the cancel buffer lets you rapid jab.

I've been doing it by pushing both buttons at once. Didn't know pushing them in sequence was an option. All pushing them in sequence seems to ever do though, is make her instantly cancel her neutral attack into itself, which is actually kinda neat.

Oddly, I seem to get it 100% of the time if I use one thumb to push X (attack) & B (special) at once. I'm using a 360 controller so you'd think I'd be pushing B first that way but it somehow works.

@Cat That's actually a pretty common workshop bug that's usually fixed by redownloading the character. Happens a lot with any character.

@D YellowMadness plinking from attack to special gives an extra 5 frames of cancel time but the input window is a bit strict to help reduce accidental inputs putting you in install while trying to play the game normally.

9/10 times, Crow's Claw doesn't activate when I do the input when the HUD says it's available.

There's a weird bug where the palette after Aya's crashes the game when selected!

Munophone was removed for performance reasons, it caused lag for a lot of people. You reminded me that I need to add a training mode install toggle. I'll do that later.

what happened to the munophone? cant practice meter combos anymore...

Thanks bro, i love your Tenshi, she is my favorite character along with Youmu by Cyctorn

@Snarck I'd recommend joining the Rivals Extended Workshop discord server: https://discord.gg/rp6Ce66mGc

There's tons of resources here and you can just ping me(same name) if you need help with anything.

You can also start by following this youtube series by Equinox Doodles (Kris/Bubbles dev) https://youtu.be/-plXqjjQ0OA

Can I ask you for help to make Touhou characters by myself from beginning?

@Akuji There's currently a bug with rivals affecting characters that use the small sprites setting that makes them tiny. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

So apparently some reason Tenshi is so tiny now when I use her in game.

@NTJavelin the music uses your in game music volume setting, and at least from all testing we've been able to do is roughly 1:1 with the normal game music.

I love this character. Probably my main in workshop, and looks amazing.

I do still have the simple problem that I've seen other people bring up, being that the songs during Peach Install are too quiet. The volume of the game is starting to get too high to pay attention to things like vcs, yet I can still barely hear the songs. Especially while in an actual match, with so many sound effects happening a second, it's like there's no music. I'd love if the volume of these could be raised.

I downloaded this character but forgot I had done so and never used it. Got my ass kicked by another player online using her. 15/10 absolutely outstanding spritework and GFX

I hotfix patched fair, it should feel better again. The reason it got so destroyed was due to competitive feedback on the move being too good for tournament play. I removed the vertical speed boosts from the move and the ability to control how far you go, but it no longer stalls your momentum or forces you to land out of short hop. Hopefully this is fine now, I'm just treading a really thin line on character balance it seems.

I have to say, I like Tenshi, but the new fair leaves a LOT to be desired. The fact that it removes all of Tenshi's vertical movement means that she can't short-hop it when she probably should be able to, instead just going into the landing animation. I'd almost say just remove the movement factors on it altogether if you don't want to use the previous version, but leave judgement to you, and hope that the next update makes it feel better. As it is, fair is just feels *bad*

you can do a cool combo with tenshi this is so good

@Lightbulbs99 that's actually a bug with the other character. Tenshi's graze detection area is that big green ball. That Sakuya is forcibly setting visibility of all article 1's without checking if its another character's article or not. But it is pretty funny I can make a workaround for it on my end.

Hey I just stumbled on a bug with this character, thankfully it's nothing game breaking but rather a silly thing that happens.

if you use this character https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2237984605 or any variation of her, Tenshi suddenly becomes this big green orb thing as if she got edited with MS paint for the fight, the orb seems to be more of a layer over the character as she seems to fight perfectly fine (with of course not being able to properly see her attacks now)

I have joined the discord and will be looking

@Rioku Maybe something's wrong with my game. I'll check it out and see. Thanks for the answers tho!

@BurntPotatoFries you should check out the Rivals of Aether Extended Workshop discord there's definitely some people who've expressed interest in working on a Koishi over there.

@Towerdepths @Pan I should probably mention that due to an in game limitation the sound uses the SFX audio channel instead of the music one. So if either SFX or Music are turned down you will get quiet music. We can't actually play music through the music channel so what I'm doing is just reading the volume of the music setting and adjusting accordingly.

I can't replicate quiet music on my end unless SFX or Music is turned down. If both SFX and Music are truned up and it's still doing this I'd really appreciate as much info as I can get since I have absolutely no idea what could be causing this other than that.
