how to get messages to appear and make a attack weaker?

[ratmon]

Hi guys, if anyone could please help me with this two things it would be really awesome

1.Is there a easy way to change how good a character blocking is or damage done by specials. For example I have one that the special kills you with one hit so I wanted to make it weaker.


2.wanted messages such as "danger" to apear on characters that dont have it so I copy the air, sound, and pcx files to the character I wanted to add to but what code do I add to the cns file? Or is there something else I need to edit?

Hmm, TBH I have no idea. But what I would do Is look for a character that has the messages appear and find the code. Then add the sprites of the messages to your character's .SFF file and then add the coding into your characters CNS files.

If anyone does not come in to help you let me know and I will try and help you further.

Also  but I thought you were trying to figure out how to hack windows or something. I was gonna say hacking forum is  ---> way.

This all requires coding. Yould have add the sprites for the messages in your sff, and create an animation. Youll then have to code it to appear during a certain move or attack, or damge level.

To alter damagw amounts youll have to go into the hitdef of each moves state, and make the damage lower.

If youre interested in getting this involved in it we can explain in greater detail.

Yes please. I ripped the pcx, sound, and the air animation and added them to the character I wanted to edit. Givin them a different group. But how do I figure out what kind of code do add to appear? Also how do you put the sound with the animation to work together...I tried editing the cns adding the code that the character who had it already that said this

Code: [Select]

; Display "Danger" Message
[State -2, Create Helper]
type = Helper
triggerall = var(14) = 0
triggerall = Alive
triggerall = NumHelper(929) = 0
trigger1 = Life <= 200
ID = 929
name = "Danger!"
StateNo = 9000
postype = p1
pos = 0, 0
ownpal = 1

[State -2, Set Danger Var]
type = VarSet
triggerall = var(14) = 0
trigger1 = Life <= 200
v = 14
value = 1
but really I'm a complete noob.. So Yeah Any help would be really appreciated.

BTW thanks for helping me how to change the damage.
