NSR
Also known as Futuretime23
As some of you know from a certain thread, I released a patch that rebalances the entire cast (all 32 characters, including DLC and Kratos) for Custom Firmware PS3s and PC.
I'm making this thread to redirect any and all discussion of this mod here.
Don't ask for a download link, you won't get any (legal concerns) and do not post a download link, or say, a picture or a video with the download link in it. It is strictly forbidden.
Discussion of the mod (along with videos, pictures,etc) is allowed, so long as no sharing of the DL link or any forum that condones said activities is posted. Sorry guys, but rules are rules.
Anyways, said mod is easy enough to find via either Google, or any search engine you want, or even Youtube (just search the title of the mod and that's it)
Installation instructions are included in the file, as well as an overall list of changes.
Here are the changes anyway:
Feedback is greatly appreciated.
ALL PATCHES ARE STANDALONE, you do not need to download and install previous versions: just install the latest one and that's it!
Current version: 2.50 (Released on 12/09/2018)
Misc. Changes:
- Mids and Overheads are now referred to as "Mid and "Overhead" in practice mode.
- Characters will now perform their normal fatalities on Kratos.
- Sub-Zero and Shang Tsung Costume 2 now have new intros that feature previously unused audio.
- Sub-Zero Costume 2 intro duration fixed so it does not cut out early.
- The title screen has been modified to say "Trilogy Edition".
- Info on the startup screen has been modified to credit those who helped with MK9 Trilogy Edition.
- Default volume settings were changed to make Music a bit louder and the game SFX lower.
- Classic music now plays by default (modern music now plays instead when activating the classic music codes) Klassic music text was altered to say Modern Music instead.
- Desert and Bell Tower stages now play the Rooftop theme.
- Courtyard Night now plays the regular Courtyard theme.
- MK3 Char select theme plays instead of the MK9 select theme.
- Noob and Sonya Blade's name now show up as "Noob Saibot" and "Sonya" like how it was in MKT.
- A new stage has been added called Noob's Dorfen, intended for low performance PCs and unstable netcode connections.
General gameplay system changes:

- All characters now transition between standing to ducking, ducking to standing, stand blocking to crouch blocking, and crouch blocking to stand blocking much more responsively to the player's inputs.
- Entering crouch block and releasing out of crouch block now takes 1 frame instead of 3.
- Do to the changes above, random block advantage bug is no longer present and seems to be fixed.
- Input bug mostly fixed and cleaned up (present but rare)
- Forward and backward step speeds have been made more fluid by reducing the start up by 2 frames for every character. (step speed is the initial step a character takes BEFORE entering their walk speed, no characters walk speeds have been altered in this process)
