These animations are so gorgeous. They have so much emotion and expression. it mixes alot of the old "Sonic 3 and Knuckles" vibe with the modern Knuckles vibe. It's great. I think in the prototype patch of PM his taunts weren't all done. now that i see them, they're perfect. I hope things change. or at least these animations can be put to use some how.
Man this makes me think of how great Knuckles really is and the potential he had if we would have got him released in time before project M finished. And so many skins he could have had such as. Jet Set Radio Enerjack (Archie Comics) Chaos Knuckles (Archie Comics$ Echidna Tribe Cowboy hat (Sonic the Hedgehog movie) Sonic Adventure 2 with the metal claws and all other gear.
I think PM CC Knuckles has most of those animations, except for the 3rd idle and the Side/Down taunts. It's really a shame that we'll never see a proper release of PM Knux :/.
LOL yeaaaaa. I actually went back to the twitch a couple days ago and watched that entiiire stream of knuckle animations retouch. It was epic! If you still do something similar to this I would sub in a heart beat
What was your reasoning for not being able to at least release the .chro files? Because if its out of respect, how are you breaking it in the first place? The animations are yours, were done in your time (mind you, after the official announcement of Project M's disbandment) and could be added to any model. So again, my question is, how is you releasing your own personal animation files (which you worked on independently) a violation of respect for Project M? Was polishing up Ridley although he wasn't an official character a violation? Then how can this be considered one? If you don't like sharing with the small Brawl/PM modding community we have left, simply say so. I'm sure this comment will get ignored though. Most great ones do.
I just can't stand when people make great things, share with people and then get upset when they did like you for teasing people with videos and not releasing things. A lot can be done by the rest of the community to finish these characters.
Is it true that Zeus has some japanese PMDT members so they're able to have Knux/Lyn? I think the way Zeus has Lyn is pretty creative, with 2 aerial modes
It's a shame that this cannot be released to the public to enjoy in-game. Would have been pretty awesome to play. Shame on you Nintendo for thinking about legal action against a mod that thousands of people enjoy. Mods are a way that fans of games like this to expand their imaginations and creativity onto a game like Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Mods I see are like Super Mario Maker, except for any game they desire. Everyone enjoys Super Mario Bros., but a lot of people would like to see what they and other people could create.
It's true. Nintendo was astonishingly heartless towards this mod. Would have loved to play the completed Lyn with the better Jab and N-Air from the "Baby Lyn v Baby Knuckles" build.
This is an interesting one actually. There's a MUGEN based fan-game for DBZ called Hyper Dragon Ball Z by Balthazar. I based the FTilt on the same back fist move that Vegeta does in that. I like that game's spriting and animation style quite a bit. The FTilt was a move that went through a few revisions, we were trying to come up with a bunch of ideas for it but none really satisfied us so I threw this one together by my own accord and it ended up sticking.
I wonder how Knuckles would work out if he had all remade *Sonic Battle* moves. I know that some are remade from *Sonic Battle*, but I wonder how Knux would play out with all *Sonic Battle* moves.
I don't think you could make a full moveset with nothing but Battle moves. Sonic Battle is even more simplistic than Smash, meaning you'd have less to work with.
I love this. I'm sorry to be mean, but I have to point out that you seem a bit... bitter. You seem upset. I could be crazy, or maybe it's because Project M being discontinued involuntarily is sad. Regardless, amazing job!
I'm all for Knuckles being expressive, but I'm not a huge fan of that mouth animation where he shows so much teeth. When fighting, it would make sense for Knuckles to be far more composed. Nonetheless, these animations are great.
Depends on which piece of official artwork you're examining. Knuckles has had many different "original expressions", but they have been predominately composed.
Do you mind if I use these animations for something? A mod for Smash 4 Wii U specifically. I wanted to changed PM Knuckles quite a bit, so I probably won't use all of them.
Seeing this is incredibly bittersweet. I can only imagine how it must feel for you guys.
Really awesome, I love his expressions!
You should make a video on this :)
Seeing him in motion is so amazing. This is Knuckles in Smash Bros. You've literally made one of my childhood dreams come true. Thank you for this.
I love it! He's so expressive.
ripa9 It's the type of animation I'd expect for Smash 4. I mean Sonic was expressive in Brawl too but the bar was raised in 4
Very impressive! A perfect representation of Knuckles in smash, I don't think Nintendo could top it.
Woulda been great. Ah well... in a perfect world, I guess.
Thanks for all the time and work put in on M regardless. It was a great ride
Dude.. This is so freaking Awesome! ugh I'm sad that PM is "finished" with their work :( this would've been awesome to have
can it not be downloaded?
no he said he's not releasing this knuckles
literally the best thing to watch right before bed. thanks for all the hard work Silentdoom!

this really helps me appreciates how much animation has to be done just to create 1 new character. thanks
I really like these animations, I'm really happy you decided to take time to finish up Knuckles properly, thank you for doing this!
Man this makes me think of how great Knuckles really is and the potential he had if we would have got him released in time before project M finished. And so many skins he could have had such as.
Jet Set Radio
Enerjack (Archie Comics)
Chaos Knuckles (Archie Comics$
Echidna Tribe
Cowboy hat (Sonic the Hedgehog movie)

i know this comment is pretty old but forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=215887

I love the eye animation with the spot dodge, great work.
Lol the frames when his teeth got sharp caught me off guard
...how am i just seeing this now? huh.
i wondered what the taunts were for the longest. this is so smooth ughhh why cant pm have him
I know it's kinda late for a change but I just wanted to point out that Knuckles' eyes aren't conjoined like Sonic's
LOL yeaaaaa. I actually went back to the twitch a couple days ago and watched that entiiire stream of knuckle animations retouch. It was epic! If you still do something similar to this I would sub in a heart beat
This was absolutely incredible!!!!!!!
These animations are all godlike....makes me sad knowing this won't ever be official. :/
Think we could see a finished Knuckles get uploaded to Brawl Vault ?
The only other guy that can make Brawl mods this high quality now is MK64DS.

it did get ignored. how unfortunate because you make great points.

Yeah, I think. It's on Brawl Vault, and I think their entry was never reported.
curious what was the up special?
Spring.
FeelsBadMan I guess this is the best P:M closure I'll get
"Knock knock it's Knuckles!"
This being official will never matter to me, it just sucks I won't be able to use him ever.
This is so sick man

as soon sm4sh animations/model importing is possible i want to port many of my/others brawl mods to sm4sh
maybe this should be 1 of them (if im allow)
Hey Doom, would you happen to know where I could find the render for Knuckles?
What was the inspiration for his f-tilt? it looks so familiar..
Reminds me of Wario F-Tilt
At least the Sm4sh version.
Balrog?

Fair point.
Were you also involved with Lyn's development?
Hey SD, Wavedash Games is accepting animators according to Reddit, just thought you might be interested...
absolutely gorgeous. does it work for regular brawl mods outside of project m?
Yes but you can't play it
+Bleal Leal so no then?
Basically, Zeus has a legal version of Knux tho
Project M and Knuckles
aye knuckles got TAP
this is sick
I love this. I'm sorry to be mean, but I have to point out that you seem a bit... bitter. You seem upset. I could be crazy, or maybe it's because Project M being discontinued involuntarily is sad. Regardless, amazing job!
There's literally nothing in this video that could make you interpret this
+SilentDoom I was more referring to last video.
wow! you're good, can u do Tails next?

Can you just release a ISO with this changes?
WSBZ01 x2
Is there something weird going on with his eyes during the intro animation? Knuckles looks like he is on some serious drugs dude!
Also, if knuckles was completed, would the push-up taunt have the ability to be held down, like mewtwo's levitation taunt?
And would give fire effects on his attacks for a while when completed
Knuckles my boiiiii
This makes me sad.
Too bad he's an assist trophy now in Ultimate.😞
Do you mind if I use these animations for something? A mod for Smash 4 Wii U specifically. I wanted to changed PM Knuckles quite a bit, so I probably won't use all of them.
