Need help with new characters

[sourgumwrapper]

Hey guys I'm new to this site and just decided to play some hardcore LF2

im not sure this is the right section but i have some problems with new characters added to original LF2

i successfully installed few characters but it seems that not all of their special attacks are working.

for example i downloaded RudolfTS, his special Ice Drake and Special move does not work, what i think is sprites are not loading up, also his Rage Slash move does not hit other characters.
Also Luke's force moves and lightsaber throw does not work.

Anyone got a idea whats wrong?

More specific?
What happens when you try those moves?

[Alectric]

i think the problem is the ID numbers are doubling up. In other words, one or more of the chars added are using the same ID for an attack. the new LF2 exe doesnt like that, and it will think its a different move.
So suggestions:
learn a bit of DC, and do this:
go to data.txt and make sure you have no same ID's, and if you do, change them to any number, as long as you remember. Then, go to the chars that used those moves, with a data changer, and then press CTRL+R, and type oid: xxx (x is the original number) and then replace with oid: yyy (y is new number)
this should work.

or, you could remove some of your chars.

post your data.txt here, that will help

I will try the Data Changer thing also, also this is my data.txt

No.

Never post such a long code without the code tag [code]...[/code].

[sourgumwrapper]

sorry about that, so what do u think its wrong?

[Alblaka]

The ID's (if you copied them from the readme etc) seem to be right, i can only guess, that the mod is crappy and not-working.

Couldn't find the mod on LFE, so you should may give us the download link, otherwise noone will be able to help you ^^

[Alectric]

^its not a mod, he put all the chars in together himself^
looking at that, i dont actually know what the problem is...sorry

Lol, in that case the problem may just is, that he changed the original IDs of the chars...
As far as i have seen, there is only one "Luke" Modification... and that one uses id's that are below 300, not 700+

Would also explain the not-working lightsaberthrow and forcepush, since both moves are done with the ball-file (which won't be found due to the id's of cause).
