Well, I was just minding my own business looking up Project M on YouTube. All of a sudden, I see a leak of what is supposedly '''[[Lyn]]''' and Knuckles fighting each other (being controlled by two people in the video). While it doesn't seem legitimate, half-way it shows that these two characters, along with '''[[Isaac]]''', have their own character slots (I presume they were cloned from characters already in the roster). Interestingly, Knuckles and Lyn have their own voices and moveset, and they do not replace Sonic or Marth whatsoever.

Do you think that it is possible that PMBR could be adding more characters, rather than making the game more like ''Melee''? [[User:Hylia's Eye|Hylia's Eye]] ([[User talk:Hylia's Eye|talk]]) 16:08, 8 March 2015 (EDT)

:I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place to be asking that question, but I feel that the leak is totally legitimate. The characters have completely unique movesets that seem very well done. Also, notice that they are using the debug mode feature. That video was posted three days after debug mode was released. Do you think that they could make such well done models and movesets in just three days? Just my thoughts. [[User:John3637881|John]] ([[User talk:John3637881|talk]]) 16:44, 8 March 2015 (EDT)
::I'm curious, too! Knuckles sounds exactly like he does in his series (former voice: Dan Green); Lyn, however, has a different voice actress from her assist trophy role (ast. trophy voice: Lani Minella). Aside from cloned animations (Lyn using Pit's entrance, Zelda's double jump, and original samurai sword attacks; Knuckles using moves inspired by other PSAs for Knuckles), these moves are completely original and incredible!
- As for models, I think that they're models used from vBrawl but with extras bones and edited textures.
[http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php?Number=207340 Hacks for Lyn over Marth!]
Notice how Lyn has bones for her hair and skirt. It's similar to Roy and Mewtwo being over Marth and Lucario
(although Roy is a smaller version of Marth, and Mewtwo is just Lucario with extra tail and finger bones), but the hacks don't even compare to the Lyndis in PM!

This is my understanding of the issue. Nintendo has no legal right to stop people from downloading or playing PM. It is however in their right to block services (such as Miiverse) if they wish. Obviously, they don't want people talking about hacking, probably because at some point some idiot will hack their console, break it, and try to sue them. They can't supply a custom ban message, so they pick the "illegal content" one, because it's kind of similar-ish and might scare the younger/less-knowledgable crowd into stopping.

== Criticism/Controversy? ==


I noticed the Brawl+ page has received it's own controversy section of being accused as Melee 2.0 and the same criticism has been expressed towards Project M. Should we have a section for that on this page? [[Special:Contributions/128.187.97.18|128.187.97.18]] 01:39, 8 January 2015 (EST)

== Leaks? ==
Has anyone seen the leaks about Knuckles, Lyn, Isaac, and Sami? Should we mention them somewhere, like in the future releases? I know it's not particularly hard to fake a leak for a game that's already a hack, but at least Knuckles and Lyn have video proof and Isaac has a GIF. Also, much like Nintendo with the ESRB leak, PM requested the video of Knuckles and Lyn be taken down. I think it should be mentioned in the future releases section that at least Knuckles and Lyn were leaked for 4.0, if not Isaac and Sami, who have little evidence. <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]].

:It's not that I doubt the veracity of the leaks, but I believe we're better off waiting on this one.

:::::The main problem with the "it's a hack" thing is that it's a leak for a hack. The way they make new characters like Mewtwo and Roy is by modifying someone else's moveset (in the case of Mewtwo, significantly). It's very logical that in an early video of them, Lyn and Knuckles would have strong similarities to whoever they started from (in this case, Marth and Sonic). The voice clip thing is probably something similar, it's early on so they don't have full voices yet. Either way, it's better to wait. <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|you]]. Or maybe [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta.]] </small>  20:54, 7 June 2015 (EDT)
:::::I'm aware of the cloning process for characters, and how the development team gets their voices in, and I agree. Get this, however; I've noticed some of Mewtwo's and Roy's SFX don't match that of Melee completely. For instance, their shield stun voices from Melee are now their light hitstun voices, and for grunts when they get hit, Mewtwo (oddly) will sometimes using his Shadow Ball throw grunt. I've even tested this by replacing Mewtwo's PM voice with his Smash 4. Perhaps the video is real, but it also shows that the team cannot get their entire voice clips for the character at all times.
And on a maybe off-topic note, for the new characters, I think the team is likely to clone the two you mentioned while using the boneset and animations from Lyn's and Knuckle's non-playable models (basically, they do not rig another model over an existing characters, but more like using a .rel file, just like how they got the two cut Melee characters.)

Question about the shared voice clips.
So...yeah, Roy and Mewtwo's voice clips no longer replace the bosses. But, let's say I want to put Lucario's Smash 4 voice over its old one, and do the same for Roy and Mewtwo's old voices.

== Remove the tier list ==
I really think the tier list (or rather, link to the tier list) needs to be removed. First off, it's horribly outdated, being from 3.02. 3.5 changed most of the characters to a large degree (which, on a semi-unrelated note, also disenchanted me from PM for the most part).

I was going to add the 3.6 release date (August 16, 2015; not yet featured), and noticed that the writeups (before the bulleted changelists) for 3.6b and 3.6 sections differ a bit from that of previous versions.  It's ok to simplify them to just say "Released Month/Day/Year" like the others, right?  New here and wasn't sure if we wanted the fluff of not.

== Verification for this? ==
"The development team have also discussed the possibility of adding brand new characters, as the clone engine allows for a maximum of seven characters for the roster, meaning there are five characters left that the engine can create. Guidelines for new characters state that the character must appear in Brawl in some way (Mewtwo appears as a trophy and Roy appears as a sticker, for example) and cannot be a newcomer to Smash 4 (like Little Mac, Bowser Jr., Palutena, and Villager, despite their cameo appearances in Brawl)"
It doesn't give a source, and it's not on the projectmgame.com news blog. Is there any evidence for this at all? Because I thought they weren't adding any more characters...[[Special:Contributions/72.104.215.193|72.104.215.193]] 14:23, 29 November 2015 (EST)

== Alright, Leaked Dev Build; Knuckle, Lyn, and Isaac playable, with only Isaac being unfinished. New costumes included as well.  ==
What do we do about this? Do we acknowledge it? Do we make pages for Knuckles and Lyn? It is 100% legitimate, it comes from wiiztec himself that it's legit.
Additionally, do we note that Sami from Advance Wars and Skull Kid from Majora's Mask were planned to be in the game before it ceased development?

:I'd say mention Knuckles, Lyn, and Isaac in the article, maybe include them in an "unfinished characters" section of the character table or something. I'm ''very'' iffy on pages; IMO it should depend on whether a widely-accepted tribute version of Project M is created.

:::::I don't know about giving full pages to the leaks, but I feel like whether to cease giving character pages to the other characters and roll back PM coverage entirely should be based on whether or not it's still being used by tournaments, not whether it's still being developed. After all, Melee hasn't been developed for 14 years. Smashwiki shouldn't feel responsible to keep it alive, but I don't think they should abandon it unless it becomes very clear that it's dead.

:::::::PM was always a deliberate exception when it came to how the wiki handled fan content; that was made perfectly clear, as was that it was done because of how unexpectedly popular that the mod got. As the official development has ceased and its popularity starts to wane back into line with the other mods, I feel it'd be appropriate to pare back the amount of coverage it gets on this wiki. It may be a better idea to split it off into its own wiki elsewhere and renew our focus on the official material as things "go back to normal", so to speak.

== "Was" ==
Is the word "was" used in this article because the team stopped developing newer revisions and PM can't be downloaded though their website anymore? I believe it is still played in tournaments, Anther's Ladder, and is still downloadable. They stopped making revisions but that doesn't mean it is not meant to be played anymore. -- [[User:Ethan7|Ethan7]] ([[User talk:Ethan7|talk]]) 15:45, 7 December 2015 (EST)

== 3.6 CC ==
Ok, we all know about this one I bet. I suggest adding it onto the revisions, or making notice of it in it's own small subject.
== PM Underground tier list... ==
Should the PM Underground list be considered official? If so, my proposal is to represent it as a table similar to the ones on the [[tier list]] page, while still maybe mentioning the other linked tier lists in prose. Right now it seems like somebody just linked to the list without considering the existing content, so this should probably be addressed in some fashion.

:::I see your point, but I fail to see why the community is just passing by several completed characters. If people want PM to survive, it needs to offer something the other games don't have. "Balance" is not that thing, despite what that tier list may suggest. When was the last time a major PM tourney was played? If there was one, I probably would have heard of it. I'm aware of Shots Fired 2, but who knows what version of PM they'll use, and they announced the event before PM development was ended. The way I see it, anybody's opinion on what is tournament legal and what is not is just as valuable as anybody else's. Do you understand what I'm trying to get at? <b>[[User:john3637881|<span style="color: black;">John</span>]]</b> [[File:John3637881 Signature.png|20px]] <b>[[User talk:John3637881|<span style="color: red;">PK SMAAAASH!!</span>]]</b> 22:56, 1 January 2016 (EST)
:::I've given this some thought. PMDT only wants us to play the last "official" version. [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|So why don't we?]] Everyone's definition on what is "official" is differs when it comes to modding. You could argue that nothing is. That's part of the reason I think it wouldn't hurt to scale back on some of the PM content. I have an idea on some stuff that is unnecessary on the character pages, namely the update histories. However, waiting until Shots Fired 2 might be wise. <b>[[User:john3637881|<span style="color: black;">John</span>]]</b> [[File:John3637881 Signature.png|20px]] <b>[[User talk:John3637881|<span style="color: red;">PK SMAAAASH!!</span>]]</b> 00:30, 2 January 2016 (EST)

A new team of developers have decided to continue Project M's ideas, known as "Smash Bros. Legacy." (I may be a little late on this, btw...)

::SmashWiki focuses on the competitive aspect of games. Seeing as that, I don't think this counts, as 1. It hasn't reached anywhere Near the popularity of PM, and 2.

Well, I made the change at a time where it did crash, but now, it isn't. [[User: Bowser vs Bowser Jr.|Bowser vs Bowser Jr]] confirmed it on the Wii, so I decided to rebrand the statement as a console-only issue. I could be wrong again, but this is the way I can explain my latest edit. Thanks!

P+ is basically considered as the official update to PM [[User:Zachula5|Zachula5]] ([[User talk:Zachula5|talk]]) 19:59, April 5, 2020 (EDT)
I mean even in the competitive scene almost everybody has dropped PM for P+.

V-cancelling is not the only known Melee advanced technique to not return in PM/+. Sticky walking and Charlie walking come to mind, light-shielding mechanics, melee tether AT's... I'm sure there's more.
