Adding Blaze in Rocket Viper 2.4.1

So, i know this game is old, but i just discovered both versions of it and one thing grinds my gears: why the second game doesn't have Blaze, like the first one? So, i was looking for a way to add her to the roster, but i lack the skills and tools to do so. Does anybody could help me making this dream come true? I'd be very grateful. Viper Rocket Blaze is the best Blaze ever released and it's a shame she isn't in the second game.

Also, big thanks to NED for the attention and his help.

Any place where to DL the old version that have Blaze inside?

@NED,

There's no version of Rocket Viper 2 that had Blaze in it. She was in the much lesser known Rocket Viper 1.


Frankly if you're going to do this right you have your work cut out. Aside from the technical issues you already mentioned, that Blaze sprite set is not the best quality work. It's missing several of Blaze's key animations and the transition frames are rather awkward. Even with corrected offsets she's always going to have some jerky movement.

OK, so I will definitly not recommand to swap her from the older game.
@Soichi Isurugi The idea was interesting, but it's big move, with massive problems. And considering the low quality of the character in the early game, not the best choice.
 
Here you go, it's a terrible hack job but I moved and changed everything that needed changing, haven't tested it past level 1 so any problems after that you'll have to figure out yourself.


 
I was playing here. Played to the 3rd stage at the extreme difficulty to do "stress test" to the system, and she works great! The only bug is: you can't hit the button to see movelist or the game crashes. Also, she does not have her special from the first game, but i see it was a completely different system, so i understand it was a pain to port her. All these little things aside, Blaze fits like a glove in this game! Thank you very much for your work, @danno! This game is just perfect now!
