Need help resampling/editing commands in cmd file!?

[argyone]

Hey Guys,

Maybe u know the problem...
Sometimes i download a char and i like it expect that some moves are veryhard to pull off..
so i tried to resample/resign the moves in the Cmd. file.
Now for example ive downloaded akuma by Mr.Anatsuken and i really like the oni he did.
when i look into the cmd there are moves like this one :

[Command]
name = "Shinbuu Messatsu"
command = x, x, F, a, s
time = 30
[Command]
name = "Shinbuu Messatsu"
command = x, x, F, a+s
time = 30
[Command]
name = "Shinbuu Messatsu"
command = x, x, F+a+s
time = 30
[Command]
name = "Shinbuu Messatsu"
command = F, DF, D, DB, B, s
time = 30

what i like to do now is to change it lets say :

~D, DF, F, ~s

so i looked through the cmd file and saw that theres already another move which is executed like that.
i thought i just have to change the move to lets say

~D, DF, F, ~s, s, a, x

and give the shinbuu messatsu
~D, DF, F, ~s

when i did all of that and saved the char via ff3 i opened my mugen and what happened?
exactly : nothing ! now oni does no move at all when i press ~D, DF, F, ~s...

so anybody know a tutorial or can explain it to me step by step?
im not new to mugen but im more the "mugen user" than the great editor.
it would be very kind if someone could explain it plain and simple , step by step so i can start resampling some chars.

its like all the time ive tried to editing moves (since i ever know mugen) its not working when i try to change the commands.
is there any specific thing i have to do when i trie to edit the cmd?

i hope you all have a great day and thx in advance

To make things a lot easier i would suggest finding commands that outright aren't in use, and if possible differ more from other commands that exist

The fact that he now does nothing means something else is probably a requirement. Anyway, bit of description

Mugen reads the CMD from top to bottom. Below the [statedef -1] line this becomes important. A changestate with a simple command like "a" that is listed above a changestate for a more complex command like F+a will be read first, mugen will register the whole command, but it finds the changestate for the A part of it first, so that triggers. More complex command changestates should always be listed above less complex ones. So for example, If you had HCF+A, qcfx2+A and qcf+a the changestates should be listed in that order as well. You may be experiencing something like this at the moment. To prove the attack works at all with changing the command, pick something that doesn't exist in the character yet. Reverse dragonpunch is extremely uncommon, see if that works

B, D, DB, a is the RDP command.
