Title: Various questions
Post by: Incredible Bulk on September 22, 2016, 03:41:18 PM
I'd say the post here because this is just several questions going to different places

First question how do I go about finding a character that gets small like Antman and get him to work? And one that grows in size like Giant man?

What are skopes?

How do you install mods?

If I wanted to add more variety to the regular game like adding more variety of cars, civilians, thugs in the the game where do I find them and how do I put them in the game?

Is there a list of suggested powers and attributes to customize a character either specific DC or Marvel character or generic type of character?

Tommy has Ant Man and Giant Man meshes on his site. He also has keyframes that allow size changes.

http://tommyboymeshes.freedomforceforever.com/index.html

There is a master mesh list that is somewhat out of date, but still useful:

http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=48991.0

And if all else fails, request something in the Requests forum. I know there is an Ant Man mesh by Texas Jack that changes size (It should be on the Master Mesh List if it's still there), and Sick Alice has a current Ant Man that has the movie version as an alternative: http://catman.freedomforceforever.com/index.html


A scope is a mesh that has been altered by Nifscope or Blender. Usually, it means that a mesh has been combined with pieces from other meshes. This lets you make a character that hasn't had a dedicated mesh created. You can also use Nifscope to edit keyframes, or to hide and unhide pieces on a mesh, like one of the Versatile meshes (Tom Versatile, Female Versatile, Taskmaster/mistress).

The mods usually have installation instructions. If not, ask.

You can add a variety of skins to the built-ins in FFv3R by creating a directory in your Custom Characters directory with the character's name and a sub directory entitled "Skins" (just like a regular character-but no .nif or keyframes), and put the new skins in that folder. This will make some of the  built-in characters different each time. I have a skin for the Thug with Bat that is a clown costume. It's always funny to see him show up.

There used to be "recipes" at Alex's Freedom Fortress (http://www.alexff.com/index.php), but they don't seem to be there now. Some people have created a bunch of hero files that you ccan download and use, although I'm not sure where to start looking for those. Alex does have EZFX, and add on that will give you all sorts of special effects that you can use to build characters from DC, Marvel, Image, Harvey, Quality, and other existing or defunct companies.

Oops! Forgot Omin-Man. Check out Alex's place:

http://www.alexff.com/index.php

Look in the skins and check Renegade's stuff. It's on the "other" page.

Well Bulk! I can help out with the mods section if you dont find any help, I recently learned myself and its pretty easy (but trust me you have to be precise!)
And hero files, as daglob mentioned, can be found on afganants website (if you cant find his site, it is on heroforce too)
As for cars I think theres a discussion on that, but new thugs and or enemies can be found at a variety of sites!
http://www.alexff.com/
http://forceofparadox.byethost31.com/
http://freedomforceuniverse.com/
http://heroforce.freedomforceforever.com/

Those sites is where you'll find a bunch of premade skins (alexff usually has then but Courtanal 6's skins need you to get the base meshes first)
And check out Benton Grey's site or the mods section (a list should be pinned to the top) for all of this great community's mods

If you are using alternate Skins for the built-in characters for FFVT3R, then you want to make sure that you convert them to dds format. Otherwise they may not show up in game.
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: Cyber Burn on September 23, 2016, 06:27:23 AM
On a side note, I would also recommend that you check out the Freedom Force Resources Yahoo Group. You may find quite a bit of useful information floating around in there.
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: Incredible Bulk on September 25, 2016, 06:10:41 PM
 so I definitely want to add more variety of villains and thugs into the standard game so how do I convert them to DDS? What folder do they go in? Do you have a link for the Yahoo Resource Group? And I wanna make a custom Superman what attributes do you recommend that we will more fits him? And finally is there a way that I can give a description for a character? For example if I was going to make Aquaman is there somewhere where I could put a brief description that says that he's king of Atlantis?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: spydermann93 on September 25, 2016, 07:38:29 PM
1. I use Paint.NET to convert skin files. Free to download and easy to use.

2. It usually depends on the type of Superman that I'm creating. I have several types of hero files sets with different forms of balance, so they all differ.

I guess my usual combo is: Classic Superhuman (Concrete Material Type), Temperature Control, Solar Powered, Heavy Lifter, and Heavy Hitter (he loves using those streetlights :P)

3. Descriptions can be added in your mod folder's Lang/Eng/strings.txt file, but it will only show up for Built-in characters.

Okay, this is the long way to do add skins to the built in characters, but it's what worked for me after several failures. Please note that this is for FFv3R only.

Find your Art.ff file, and make a copy someplace safe. I suggest a folder someplace like My Documents. Change the extension to .zip and extract the files. This should give you all the built-ins in their own folders. You can then go through and erase all the .nif and .kf files, and under the skins erase the standard folder. Copy (or move) these character folders back into your Custom Character folder, and you can put new skins in their "skins" folder . The game will look for these folders and add the new skins to the list when you look at them in the character creation section.

Before you actually try this, let people look at what I've typed and make any corrections, additions, or elaborations. I'm not perfect and I have been known to make misteaks.

Just a side note: I have a sub folder in my Custom Character folder named FreedomForceCharacters that has all the built-ins complete; skins, keyframes, standards, everything. If there is no .nif directly under FFC, it will not show up in the game. If I want an alternate version (there are effects version and alternate keyframes for some of them), I can copy it into the Custom Character folder and it will show up in the character creation section like any other custom. Best to give them a unique name, like Alchemiss_Effects (If you replace the original with an Alchemiss with Reflections and Glow turned on) or Microwave_IM_KF (Microwave using the custom Iron Man keyframes designed for the character).

I'm the classic superhero attribute in the description it mentions weakness to alien minerals. Where are they in the game?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: daglob on September 25, 2016, 08:34:14 PM
There is an attribute for that; Toxic maybe. Vulnerability defaults to taking damage from alien minerals. I've never made a mod, so I haven't strewn Kryptonite around the landscape, but I have built some villains with that attribute: Kryptonite Man, Metallo, Atomic Man from the radio show...

Yep, DaGlob is right. It defaults to the character being weak to "Alien Minerals". That typically doesn't show up in the game, but characters can have the "Toxic" attribute that DaGlob was talking about which will damage your character constantly, inflict Power Null and Density Max on the character, and removes any invulnerability that the character has. It's exactly what happens to Superman when he encounters Kryptonite :P

You can change what the character is weak to using the FFX Control Centre (it came with the mod). You can modify it to trigger from a variety of situations, so it can simulate a character that's weak to fire, cold, certain mental conditions, and much more.

Renegade made some Kryptonite rocks. I had always figured that you could put them in a map and give them that attribute, but since I don't make maps or mods I could be wrong.

oh cool, you found that ancient thread!  Yeah, if you use Renegade's kryptonite mesh, you should replace the alien_mineral nifs in FFX, since they are set to be the diamond from the Top Hat Club by default.
You could also place a few alien_mineral parts in a map, too.
Hmm, or maybe it's possible with summoner too, to summon up alien_mineral.
From what I remember, using the attribute Toxic, or the object alien_mineral, those were the only two ways to simulate kryptonite effectively.
i still think the limey lure swap was the best method, though.

Shape-Shift or Involuntary Form I would say. I've used FFX for so long I can't remember if these are in the original game or not.

Anyway, you will have to set these up to use them. I'm not much help there; my present computer won't let either of those work for some reason (at least it wouldn't; maybe Windows 10... but then again, WX won't let me edit some artwork I did years ago because I don't have permission)

That's a bummer about your computer I hope everything works out for you I was thinking about shapeshifter and it's been so many years since I played so matter-of-fact that used to be a member on here and I just couldn't remember my information I had to create a new account butt I thought it was supposed to give the other character the one that I'm going to be turning into a specific attribute I just cannot for the life of me remember

Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: detourne_me on September 28, 2016, 07:31:30 AM
I remember another technique for shapeshifting, too. Its useful if the hero only has one alternate form.
You can use the attribute Accidental Change, and the alt-form has the Involuntary Form attribute. In the ffx control center you can change the trigger condition for the change. Make it enraged, panicked, etc. I liked giving my shapeshifters the 300% special power, and making that the trigger. It works well for characters like Billy Batson.

It would also be good for Bruce Banner, give him the Berserker attribute and Accidental change. When he gets enraged he turns into the hulk.

EZHero will let you manually add weight, but I don't know enough about it to know if you are really changing the weight or just the pattern of dots on the screen. I thought there used to be choices, with some higher than the "regular" weight, some lower. I lowered my avatar's weight one level (something like 120) because he's basically silly putty, then gave him Acrobatic.

Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: daglob on September 28, 2016, 10:58:52 PM
Yes; I think it looks for FF1 by default, but it can handle both games. I have used it to copy the attributes, powers, and stuff from a Superman on Superman Ren to Male Cape Superman Ren KF and to Superman Gren. A little editing in the creation section of the game is still required, but it is a massive time saver. I have also used it to create a character (or six) from scratch and do minor editing later. You can also tell it which kind of game object it is; Hero, Minion, Villain, etc.
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: spydermann93 on September 28, 2016, 11:52:21 PM
Yeah, the EZHero Tool will handle any characters you make in :ff: or :ffvstr: just fine. Heck, you can even use it to MAKE characters, give them multiple Passive Defenses, make Area attacks cost no EP, change their material to materials that aren't available via the character creator (e.g. Concrete, Air, and Cloth), change the mesh a character uses, change their AI, and so much more.

Just open the tool up, click "Open" and select your hero file. EZ as pie :P

It should open up your "Heroes" folder automatically if the tool was installed correctly, but if it wasn't and you don't know where your hero files are located, check in C:\Users\username_here\AppData\Local\Irrational Games\Freedom Force vs the 3rd Reich\Custom\Heroes

When you're done modifying your character, click "Save". Your hero will now be ready to tumble in the Rumble Room!

Actually, if you go to a character's Template entry, you will see various text boxes.  One of them should say "Mass". That's what you'll edit to change their weight.

Be careful, though, as mass and weight are not 1:1.  For example, a character's mass might be 60, but in-game, they weight 170 lbs.  You kind of just have to fidget with the numbers until you get it right.

Somebody posted something about being able to increase a character's strength beyond 10, but I can't remember who it was (Kenn?). I believe the weight is supposed to affect the way knockback works, but I don't ever remember seeing exactly how.

The two Attributes Heavy Lifter and Heavy Hitter are often used by super-strong characters because in the comics such characters are constantly picking up stuff tossing it around or using it like a baseball bat. From what I understand, they basically make your strength a "ranged" attack. There are also a couple of attributes that will make you immune to knockback: Rooted and Density Control.

since you're only limited to 5 attributes is there a way that I can combine 2-3 already existing attributes to create a new one basically a combo? I want to create an attribute that combines heavy hitter and heavy lifter and maybe one other together
Title: Re: Various questions

You might use Density Control, since it includes some enhanced jumping ability and knockback resistance. I think for Rooted to work you have to remain still.

Unfortunately, everybody here pretty much has their own character creation techniques, so there isn't really a standard recommendation for attributes for pareticular characters.

However, if you lok at Glob's FF resource thread, the one with all of the link, there are some links to RPG character sheets that can give you an idea about which attributes to give your heroes.

Okay so I've been looking up weights of characters online and maybe I got them wrong maybe there's more updated information out there but some of it doesn't make sense to me, but before I get to that I'm looking that up because I want to make sure the characters on creating all about the correct weight so  the first one I looked at was the thing he's 500lbs a guy made of stone only 500lbs whereas the juggernaut is 900lbs. I thought that was a bit strange that the thing will be that small and Hulk is at 1300lbs yet the Blob is only at 800lbs I would have thought the Blob would be around 1500lbs cause he's fat yes but also has muscle. So it didn't really make too much sense to me. I couldn't find weights for Cyborg, Colossus, Steele any guess?

The Blob's power is that he can root himself to the Earth. I don't remember when, but I believe The Hulk picked him up once and he had a bunch of soil stuck to his feet. It isn't his weight, it's his power. Unus must have something similar, or when he got hit, he would go flying back, instead of just standing there. The Thing isn't made out of stone, more like he's covered in scales of a tough organic compound (shell? keratin?). Now, The Juggernaut's weight does seem kind of high, I wouldn't think he'd be any heavier than The Thing. His powers are magical, so the "unstoppable" effect lets him move forward through any obstacle, and his weight shouldn't be a factor in it. In one of the handbooks, I thought they said how much more Colossus weighed than Peter Rasputin, but I don't remember how much or which one.

Our Male Hulking Thing, Thing T, and Thing Ren are probably a little bigger than The Thing is in comics.

Okay so I've been looking up weights of characters online and maybe I got them wrong maybe there's more updated information out there but some of it doesn't make sense to me, but before I get to that I'm looking that up because I want to make sure the characters on creating all about the correct weight so  the first one I looked at was the thing he's 500lbs a guy made of stone only 500lbs whereas the juggernaut is 900lbs. I thought that was a bit strange that the thing will be that small and Hulk is at 1300lbs yet the Blob is only at 800lbs I would have thought the Blob would be around 1500lbs cause he's fat yes but also has muscle. So it didn't really make too much sense to me. I couldn't find weights for Cyborg, Colossus, Steele any guess?

According to the Marvel Universe Online, Colossus weighs 250 lbs normally, 500 lbs transformed. And Juggernaut is 1900 lbs. Blob is 510 lbs, the Thing is 500 lbs and the Hulk is 128 lbs (Banner); 900 lbs (gray Hulk); 1,040 – 1,400 lbs (green/savage Hulk); 1,150 lbs (green/Professor Hulk).

Hope that helps a bit.

A missing texture usually makes something bright magenta. It may insist that it needs a refl or glow texture. I have "standard bits" that have glow, refl, lightmap, and portrait files filled with black I copy into some skin folders. I think if it's the main texture that is missing, it has this peculiar black "X" on white wrapped around the mesh.

LP's Storm is for FF1 (at least I have a copy in FF1). Check and be sure that the "extras" have both refl and glow textures.

CB is right, often converting all the textures to .dds will work, but only in FFv3R.

There are programs out there to convert from one graphic format to another, but I can't remember. I got a Photoshop add-in that lets me use it to convert.

I use XnConvert (http://www.xnview.com/en/xnconvert/), which allows me to convert multiple Files at once once. You just have to be careful and not try to use it on your Meshes and Text Files and the like.

So this happen last night I copy each FF character gave  them their actual game name because in the game thier stats are lower but when I view them on the character section I guess it shows thier full power so after I copy them all I go play then at rumble room I select some from under custom but it again shows thier weaker version and some powers and attributes are locked. What gives?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: Incredible Bulk on October 18, 2016, 08:16:56 PM
For example Alchemist if you look at the building character Prestige points it's somewhere around 8,000 but if you click on view with all her powers she's about 13,000 Prestige points. So I just did a copy of that character give her the same name so I'm assuming that she's at 13000 Prestige Point character but when I went to the Rumble Room and I picked from Custom characters I picked her but she's back down to 8000 Prestige points and some of her attributes and Powers are as if they were locked
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: spydermann93 on October 18, 2016, 10:43:05 PM
It has to do with the built-in names conflicting with your custom character names.

A some of the meshes of those characters have those abilities built in. There are also some "tiny" and "giant" meshes which you could use with shape-shift. Texas Jack and Tommyboy have size changing meshes. Tommy has some keyframes that change size depending on the animation selected. I can send you some of them after I get back from the doctor.

Youll have to open up a map using FFEdit and then place civilians and CPs (civilian paths).  Try to check out some mapmaking tutorials for how to do this. Maps are found under the missions tab in FFEdit. Try opening up a map made by someone like Cmdrkoenig or HumanTon, you can see all the different things they add to it.

The game is based on the 60's and 40's in America and there weren't many non-white heroes or villains in comics at the time, so I guess it's not really all too surprising.

But yeah, it is kinda odd that there aren't many black civilians, especially if Patriot City is supposed to be a metropolis.

Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: detourne_me on November 17, 2016, 07:15:07 AM
There are different techniques to cloning, I believe.
You could use the special power Clone Self, but the clones might trigger that.
Some other options would be the Attribute Accidental Cloning, and give it a trigger that is kind of rare. possibly trigger on enraged and give him the enrage special power.  m25AI doesn't usually use that power, so you would be safer there.
You could also give him Private Army or Summoner, and make separate "clone" hero files. then you really do limit the number of clones.
You could also do something like a "clone bomb" make a projectile limey lure attack, and swap it to summon in the ffxcontrolcentre.

No, I'm afraid there isn't really a way to do that, but you can give a character "Limey Lure" and use the Control Centre to make it summon an "alien_mineral" (alien_mineral has the toxic attribute, so it's like a character just tossed a piece of Kryptonite on the ground).

It should be one of the templates lines. I think something like "spawn_template". I will have to check when I get home.

The other thing to do is add a swap for limey lure to use summon instead
ill first wait till you get home and check it out before doing the summoner one

Ok, so the line you want to change is the "Object Template" line. Changing that to "alien_mineral" should have your character spawn "kryptonite" when you use your Limey Lure.

Again, make sure that your Limey Lure is swapped to "Summon".

You know how you'd swap attacks like Rage to Mental Damage? It's exactly like that.

Select the hero/villain that will be throwing the Kryptonite in the Control Centre.  Below where you see Object Temple and similar text boxes, you'll see two columns of blank text boxes.  In the top row, select "limeylure" for the left box and "summon" for the right box.  Click "Save", load up your game, and now your character should drop an alien mineral whenever you use your Limey Lure power.

Also, I would highly recommend reading the FFX manual that came with the install (it's in your ffx3 folder).  Just open up the index.html file in your favorite internet browser and read to your heart's content.  It has a lot of really good information and How To's in there that will teach you how to do pretty much everything FFX3-related.

Also another question. What is the process when you make a new characters? I make it add abilities and powers then go to conrol center and brand them? Then the tool in rumble room to iD them?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: Incredible Bulk on November 06, 2018, 03:11:57 AM
Sorry that I keep bothering guys but I'm still trying to come back for my absence so least for a while I'll  Either be asking a lot of questions or requesting mesh and skins.  This question is a technical one since I don't know there's an actual guide that exist that explains the creation process of a character.

OK let's say I have 2 characters 1 of them has a strength level of 3 the other character has a strength level of 10  and i give them the same simple punch attack low magnitude (which i stil not %100 clear what that even means) and they both hit the same target with that punch since its the same low level punch will they hurt their target in the same amount or will it vary due to strenght levels?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: spydermann93 on November 06, 2018, 04:56:59 AM
Don't be afraid to ask questions, man. I'll help when and if I can, so no worries :)

1) To make new characters, I make them in game with all of their abilities and powers and whatever else I can think of first. Then, I open up the hero with the EZHero Tool and change their weight, add extra passives if need be, change their AI if I want, etc. After that, I open up the FFX Control Centre and brand them by selecting the mod I want to use, selecting a random character, and clicking "Save". I don't think clicking save is necessary, but I just want to be sure, lol

2) Yes, strength will modify your melee damage quite significantly. At lower magnitudes, there won't be much of a difference, but at higher magnitudes, it can get pretty crazy.

For example: A Low magnitude punch at level 3 for a Strength 3 character will do about 7 damage on average. For a Strength 10 character, the same attack (a low level 3 punch) will do about 18 damage.

A High magnitude punch at level 3 for a Strength 3 character will do about 19 damage. That same punch on a strength 10 character will do 51 damage! Big difference!

Strength will also affect knockback distance. A strength 3 character needs a level 3 melee attack with Extreme KB to consistently knock back a person weighing 170lbs. A strength 10 character can send that person flying with a Low KB attack. Magnitude does not matter.

For ranged attacks, it's all the same as a strength 4 melee attack, both in damage and knockback.

EDIT: Look in the yahoo group link DaGlob posted up above. In there, look in the "Freedom Force Charts" section. I made a graph showing how much damage (on average) each attack at each strength will do. Very helpful for quick balance checking!

Hmm, interesting question!  I think you can't do that with custom characters.  When you build them in, their powers get sorted into two boxes like that, but I don't know how you label them.  It's never occurred to me.  :)

And can somebody explain to me the difference between passive and active defense?  For example let's say I was gonna make a Superman what will be the difference between him having a passive defense and A active defense what do they represent or do?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: BentonGrey on November 06, 2018, 06:47:41 PM
Sure.  Basically, an active you have to activate, while a passive is always active.  Active will (sadly) block ALL damage of selected types in  :ffvstr:.  In  :ff: it had its own health rating that could be worn down and was a WAY better system, but I suppose I'm just griping!  :P  Anyway, passive lets you choose a percentage chance to block attacks, and it will always be there in the background.  Minuteman has a passive that lets him sometimes deflect bullets, for example.
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: Incredible Bulk on November 06, 2018, 07:17:00 PM
OK so would it make sense to me or is it just a waste if I were to make a Superman type character and give him concrete skin since  Technically that wishes she'll come from bullets and stuff and also give him a passive shield where piercing projectiles will deflect off?  Those 2 things pretty much will do the same thing?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: BentonGrey on November 06, 2018, 10:39:05 PM
Well, there are a number of design philosophies, but keep in mind that a passive defense will block ALL damage from any blocked attack, so if Darkseid tries to Omega Beam Superman's face off, that would normally hurt, even counting his resistances.  If a PD blocks it though, he takes no damage.  I often would give my characters at least a low-level PD, if it seemed to fit, which added a little extra durability and sometimes fits thematically very well.  For example, it makes perfect sense that Captain America (or Supes, for that matter) will occasionally just deflect incoming attacks.  You can even choose nice FX to show things bouncing off of them. 

So, there's a design component, a thematic component, and a balance component.  You just have to decide where you think a given character would be in those different categories.

Personally, I vacillate between using Physical Resistance + Invulnerability or material type + Invulnerability to simulate high levels of toughness.  I usually also have at least a minor PD for the visual benefit if nothing else.

I can't remember where but there was a thread that talked about if you wanted to have more than 25 enemies on the rumble room. Any one know where it is?

You have to find the "Skirmish" folder, and search there for some python files that start with "CM25 (game mode)",where game mode may be epic mode, free for all, team mode, watch mode and generate AI. Select the game mode you want to modify, and in the script search for the line:

Quotedef OnNumEnemiesCheck():
    return 44

Where 44 is the number of characters i defined for free for all...
FYI, this only worked for me in free for all game mode, i have not been able to make this work in watch mode or generate AI mode. But, there is a way i make this work for Watch mode, specially when i want to see different teams: once you changed the free for all.py, go to free for all and then select all the characters you want, but don't press 'next' just yet,go back, and then go to 'watch mode'. You will see all your characters selected and be able to play with 44 or more characters.

Be warned, with more characters your game performance will be affected.
Hope you understand all, my english is not very good.  :P

It depends if the character has the burrow_down and burrow_up keyframes  (i think those are the names.)
They need to be exact names, and they could be any kind of animation, but if they have the right names those specials will be come available for you.
For example, look at some Vision meshes, or Kitty Pryde ones.  I think even my MFF_Ant-Man can use the burrows.

The only other special I'm aware of that does this is 'tumble'  if you have a running or tumbling animation, and rename it 'tumble' they can perform that special (which is moving slightly slower than a sprint, but dodges damage)

so the exact names you need are 'burrow_start' for digging down and 'burrow_end' for digging up.
you can change animation names using nifskope or m25's keyframe tool.

you would need to have the same NiNodes on the mesh your are transplanting Ant's keyframes to, as on Ant's mesh. They are like the ingredients that the recipe of the .kf file calls for.  if the mesh doesn't have the ingredients, it can't make the recipe.

Ah, I see. Just remove the entire "Energy Reserve" section of code. Aquaman's file should look like this:

['Aquaman',
["target enemy",
'weakness_melee_piercing',
'weakness_ranged_acid',
'weakness_ranged_electrical',
'not staticked',
'weakness_area_fire',
'weakness_melee_crushing',
'not flying',
],
["timer", 'auto',
'TUseRemedy()',
'TFleeMelee(type="any",subtype="emitting_damage",time=0.88)',
"TActiveDefense('Atlantean Skin',mindist=0,time=3.2)",
"TArea('Fire of Atlantis',time=2.47)",
"TRanged('Electric Trident',time=2.76)",
"TMeleeArea('Uppercut',time=1.04)",
"TMelee('Hook Slash',time=1.27)",
"TRanged('Harpoon Wrap',time=2.11)",
"TRanged('Poison Trident',time=1.92)",
'TThrow(pickup_time=3.12,throw_time=3.59)',
'TMoveTo(mindist=\'medium\',time=0.88,subtype=["not emitting_damage","flying"])',
'TMoveTo(mindist="melee",subtype=["not emitting_damage","not flying"],time=0.88)',
],
]


The reason why he is not doing anything is that his Energy Reserve is set to "High", meaning that he will not use anything that will cost him energy (he tries to keep 3 bars filled) except defenses. That's why you only see him using his active defense.

another for you, is it possible to give an attack a 2 secondary attack type? What i mean is lets says i had a ice themes character/ He will be powerful against heat sensitive to the cold like heat base characters. But lets say I give that ice character a "Ice Bullet" attack so i give a piercing damage type. but can it also have a secondary damage of cold? So it can hurt those heat guys even more?

The only secondary attack I'm aware of is giving an attack a high stun %, and then in FFX Control Center, swap stun for mental damage. there may be other damage types, too. but i don't think they are element specific.

You can add new attributes to ezhero by opening the attrib.ini file located in ezhero folder...you have to add manually the new atributes at the end of the file.

With the combat skills attributes do you know how they are supposed to be written.

And is that the cause of why the attribute disappears from my character?

You can look in two places:

FFEdit will show you all of the attribute names as they appear when referenced in the code

and

Inside your "modFolder/Lang/English/strings.txt". Just search for the name of the attribute and you can see what the "in-code" name is. For example, when you search for "Combat Skill (master)", you'll find this:

ATTRIB_COMBATSKILL2_01, combat skill (master)


The part that is bold is the name you'll find in FFEdit and the part that is underlined is the name you'll see in-game.

To add an attribute to EZHero, open EZHero, go to "Tools>Add Custom Attribute..." add an entry like this:

theNameYouWantToSee,theNameInFFEdit

So, going with the example above, it would look like this:

combat skill (master),COMBATSKILL2

It worked thanks ,

Questions in a male attack if has ability to stun will it also stun you? Unless you set it for enemines only?
Title: Re: Various questions
Post by: spydermann93 on December 25, 2018, 07:01:54 AM
No, the stun will always be applied to whomever you are hitting.

Enemies Only means that your melee attack will never hurt friendly characters. It is very useful for melee attacks with Arcs since Arcs hit everybody within them.
