Body disappearing and projectile not showing sprites

[Kezeal]

I began coding my own character(from experience, I can say that I have to touch that area waaaaay before sprites) and ran into some huge troubles.
I took Louis EX as my base. I put his normal attack(A) as Henry's windblast, but way weaker version. I also removed his second "Punch" row.
But now when I use attack, sometimes the character visibly disappears(comes back when I do anything) and the "backlash" of the attack never appears(the yellow lines on the ground).
The punching frames are:

Code:

<frame> 60 punch
  pic: 210  state: 3  wait: 2  next: 61  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  dvz: 0  centerx: 36  centery: 77  hit_a: 0  hit_d: 0  hit_j: 0

  bdy:

The attack's entire file is:

And sometimes the attack doesn't seem to trigger either.

EDIT: I checked every single hit_a: as well, and the only one that had numbers was Louis EX's own blastpush, and there's no way that interrupted, or even made the character disappear.
EDIT2: I changed oid to 204(Henry's own wind file), and the sprite still didn't appear. That makes me think something is horribly wrong with the character's own code.
EDIT3: No "next:" pointed towards the deleted frames either...

You can use [ code=dc ] instead of [ code ] btw.

The "backlash" does not occur because you used opoint on the first frame of an attack; Opoints will never spawn on the first frame of a move. You should clone frame 60 to frame 63, make frame 60 have wait: 0 and next: 63, frame 63 with wait: 1. So it should look like this:

DC-Code: <frame> 60 punch  pic: 210  state: 3  wait: 0  next: 63  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  dvz: 0  centerx: 36  centery: 77  hit_a: 0  hit_d: 0  hit_j: 0  bdy:     kind: 0  x: 26  y: 12  w: 27  h: 68  bdy_end: <frame_end>   <frame> 61 punch  pic: 211  state: 3  wait: 2  next: 62  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  dvz: 0  centerx: 28  centery: 77  hit_a: 0  hit_d: 0  hit_j: 0 sound: data\007.wav  opoint:     kind: 1  x: 73  y: 44  action: 0  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  oid: 669  facing: 0  opoint_end:  bdy:     kind: 0  x: 12  y: 9  w: 52  h: 68  bdy_end: <frame_end>   <frame> 62 punch  pic: 212  state: 3  wait: 2  next: 999  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  dvz: 0  centerx: 28  centery: 77  hit_a: 0  hit_d: 0  hit_j: 0  bdy:     kind: 0  x: 11  y: 8  w: 54  h: 68  bdy_end: <frame_end>   <frame> 63 punch  pic: 210  state: 3  wait: 1  next: 61  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  dvz: 0  centerx: 36  centery: 77  hit_a: 0  hit_d: 0  hit_j: 0  opoint:     kind: 1  x: 83  y: 44  action: 20  dvx: -5  dvy: 0  oid: 669  facing: 1  opoint_end:  bdy:     kind: 0  x: 26  y: 12  w: 27  h: 68  bdy_end: <frame_end>

The character disappears until you do something else because one of the frames has a next: that leads to a non-existant frame. Check if you removed frame 65 - you should copy frame 60 onto frame 65. Default attack is always chosen between frame 60 or 65 at random.

DC-Code: <frame> 65 punch  pic: 210  state: 3  wait: 0  next: 63  dvx: 0  dvy: 0  dvz: 0  centerx: 36  centery: 77  hit_a: 0  hit_d: 0  hit_j: 0  bdy:     kind: 0  x: 26  y: 12  w: 27  h: 68  bdy_end: <frame_end>

As for the shockwave attack itself, the projectile is actually invisible. I don't see anything wrong with the 2nd opoint, you should be able to hit enemies. Your own projectile however, probably has a wrong sprite size or wrong pic number. Can you show us the sprite you are using?

Thank you!

Ohh!

The sprite is literally copy of henry_wind.bmp



When I did the edits you told me, it works PERFECT!
I learned 2 new things: Don't use opoint on first frame, and there are 2 attacks that are chosen randomly, no matter whether the second exists or not.

Thank you very much.

EDIT: Can't find "Solved" button...
