Hidden character in Hunter's Tussle?

Gregorio22475 · Jul 04, 2015 2:05 PM

In Hunter's Tussle cutscene you can see something very strange near the Spooky Swamps portal. Any idea what it could be? I think maybe that enlarged bunny. Did anyone saw this before?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2l8plZvh8uQ around 00:08 if anyone's wondering

anyway, odd O_o i never saw that before, no. at first i thought maybe it was something that appeared when you went into the level for the first time (like those rocks in Winter Tundra with the gems and that orb) but then it moved a bit. i'm not sure what it is.

it disappears at 00:53. and reappears at 00:58. tongue

And it is moving so i think it may be some creature. An enemy, who knows.

It appears to be a distant model of the Giant Bunny that's featured in the cutscene. I'm pretty sure that's what it is. It was probably moved to the side or something until it was ready to be used in the cutscene (although it can be seen with the Giant Bunny present anyway). Either that, or anther duplicate of the same object they forgot to remove.

SI think I saw a youtube video about it not that long ago, and it was one of the creatures from the Spyro 2 epilogue...
*long search*
Aha, not on google - on deviantart, and it's by the guy making SpyroEdit:

It's Mr Fistus, one of the "extinct species" from the Spyro 2 epilogue big_smile

this is really interesting! but i wonder why it was made, why animations were made for that one second, and why it was used in the cutscene O_o it's just so strange.

where are those people who are always complaining to Insomniac about new games? one of them should go ask them about this. tongue

Sounds like something you could reveal with your model swapping!

Awesome! This sure is a game of secrets o.O

actually the game really hates it when i try to model swap during cutscenes. it almost always freezes mad

Sheep, just to let you know, Kly_Men_COmpany didn't make SpyroEdit; LXShadow did. But Kly has been working on some modifications for that program that haven't been released yet.

Oh, yeah, I would expect that tongue I guess it would be like when changing Spyro's state of animation, which is the closest thing to this that I've done. The game would crash when I tried to get the flying animation while in a level where it wasn't loaded, so the game probably crashes when you try to get a model that isn't there.
What kind of values are the models mapped to? Starting at 0 and up, but only going as far as the number of models loaded into memory? Or constant values for each model, from a much larger range?

Oh, whoops! Thanks for correcting me ! smile I think only the part about Kly working on more features/modifications registered in my brain earlier, so I misremembered:P

While watching the video, I thought it was the sorceress in the background spying on Bianca to see how good she is at her magic, but now that you've enlarged it, idk what it is 0_0 that's so weird tho! And I don't think it's a distant model of the bunny... When the bunny was attacking Bianca it was still there. So yeah, idk hmm

Mod edit: Fixed your duplicate post for you

I don't believe that is possible now. I recently read a comment on youtube whilst I've been on a Spyro 3 glitch video binge that the Insomniacs who developed the original Spyro trilogy are no longer with the company.
