Hurricane Kick problem

[Kev The Galaxybender]

Sheng Long's fierce hurricane kick, the first part of it is unblockable, the part when he leaps into the air and the knee launches forward before the kicks start. I checked the guard flags and they're set correctly but you still get hit by the first part. I even added a hit flag, but that still doesn't work. Could someone look at this code and help me fix it???

for the record, I removed the hitflag I had written in because there was no hotflag there to begin with, this how the code was originally written.

can someone please help???

You need to add the hitflags to all the hitdefs

[Kev The Galaxybender]

I did that and it still didn't work

[Kev The Galaxybender]

the only thing I was able to do is give him a hitflag = N on that first hit, the knee so it's more like Ry's hurricane kick and less like Ken's on start up

[Fallen_Angel]

Are you sure that those are the statedefs??, I remember that  if you dont have hitflag the attack doesnt touch the enemy

[Kev The Galaxybender]

I'm positive, the move would hit, and it had no hitflag, and it had a guard flag of MA and them move would still hit, and the starup was unblockable. As soon as I added a hitflag that was N, the startup (the knee) it would not miss and the hurricane kick would act as Ryu's do in some capcom games opposed to Ken's where the rising knee of the move would hit then go into the hurricane kick.

[TrunkJunky]

priority  = 6

Perhaps lower the priority of the hit?

[Kev The Galaxybender]

that doesn't work either. Don't sweat it, the way I have it, it's working fine. One has to know how to improvise

[Fallen_Angel]

can you tell me where can I download that char so I can check

[Kev The Galaxybender]

I dont remember where I got him from, but he had a few unblockable moves. His dragon punch was like that but I fixed it

[Sabaki]

Here's what I think may help, just based off of what you shown and I think you're requesting. If you don't want the 1st part to hit, you have to change the trigger. Here's what I mean.


;-------------------------------
[State 3012, first hit]
type = HitDef
trigger1 = AnimElem = 1 ; 1st animation frame, set to hit
attr = S, SA
animtype  = Hard
damage    = 45, 15
priority  = 6
guardflag = MA
pausetime = 12,15
sparkno = 3
sparkxy = -10,-60
hitsound   = S1,5
guardsound = S6,0
ground.type = High
ground.slidetime = 12
ground.hittime  = 15
ground.velocity = -.2,-4.5
air.type = Low
air.velocity = -3.4,-6
fall = 1
air.fall = 1
;-------------------------------

What you can do is either remove that entire hitdef or set the 1st hit on another animation frame, like #2 or #3, like so:

trigger1 = AnimElem = 2 

Also, check the AIR file, look for the anim, and if there's a clsn1 box on the 1st animation (attack box, red), remove it.

As for the unblockable hits, I think you fixed it already, so I'll leave that alone. Hope this helps.
