Welcome to the JoJo's Bizarre Survival wiki!

Stands

What Stands will be added?

All of them, hopefully. If it's requested enough I'll make a list of Stands that I CAN'T add.

What Stands are being worked on right now?

All Stands being worked on are listed in the README.md. All finished or nearly finished Stands are listed on the Stands page.

Will "x" be added?

Most likely, most Stands can be added in some way.

I'm not happy with how you implemented "x", change it!

There are two cases here:

  1. You're not happy that the Stand isn't exactly like the original, it most likely can't be.
  2. The Stand is badly designed and I'll most likely agree with you.

Unless you have a suggestion for how I should change it, don't bother asking.

Vampirism, Spin and Hamon

Vampirism, Spin and Hamon will most likely be added but they aren't a priority right now, Spin is questionable at best.

Code related

"x" code is bad!

Agreed, a lot of the older code written (at the time of writing this, 1.6.2020.) 3 months ago is pretty bad and should most likely be changed, create an issue with the [bad code] label if you see bad code.

What do you use for development?

I use IntelliJ IDEA for code and Blockbench for my models, after making the model texture in Blockbench I add noise in Photoshop. I also use this site for model references, they're really good.

Contribution

Code

If you have an idea you think is worth sharing, go ahead and fork the repository and add it yourself, if you make a new Stand and it is added to a release you will be fully credited in the ingame mod screen. Beware that if your code is bad I will reject your pull request, please only make a pull request if you have experience in Java and modding, reviewing bad pull request will just slow development down.

Collaboration

Even though the mod's source is public I do not plan to collaborate with anyone, I prefer working alone by far. As stated above I will accept good pull requests, but I don't plan to actively collaborate with whoever made it.

Art

I will accept art contributions in the form of textures and models. If you want to contribute a texture either make a pull request with it in the assets folder or send it to novarchbugreports@gmail.com. If you want to contribute a 3D model I would most prefer a .bbmodel from Blockbench as it's what I use, I will also accept standard .java models if they have a screenshot attached.

Sounds

Sounds are a fairly small thing you can contribute, to find sounds I recommend the Jojo's Bizarre Sound Design channel or sound rips from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle, this mostly just saves a bit of time for me, as I usually have to search through YouTube videos or sound files to find one that's good enough to use. If you are submitting a Stand rush sound, please make sure it is less than 10 seconds long.
