MKP 2.9 Non-MK Characters with Finishers - Findings so far and what is still needed

[MKImpc7R]

I need someone who knows MKP Season 2.9 / final MKP codes work, as I need to add the missing thing. 

I am trying to do 2 things as I want to use some non-MKP characters as well: 

1) Make the non-MK character finishable - for now leaving aside adding specific animations for each finisher, just to make them finishable by MKP chars, so the non-MK chars do not fight after entering Finish Him/Her
2) Add some basic finishing move to the non-MK character, for now I will just repeat the same type of move and code shared by these non-MK characters. But most importantly - have the non-MK character cause enemy to go Dizzy and Finish Him code. This is exactly what I am having trouble with and I will expand below:

 

1) More or less I have done that, so I will also post this as tutorial because lots of the knowledge is nowhere to be found I just come across my threads when I google. 

Let's take Captain America but I am trying with simpler chars that will use less states. 

 

--------------------------  The CMD

 

MKP uses 2 specific commands in the char's CMD so why not add things in CMD first as they are the frame of where other things go further.

I start with adding the Remap keys that are often seen in MKP char's CMD:

 

[Remap]
c = y
z = b
b = c
y = z

Then the 2 important MKP commands are in ;-| Hold Dir |-------------------------------------------------------------- where it has  ;Required (do not remove) commands, so I add there among the others:

 

[Command]
name = "run"  ;Required (do not remove)
command = /c
time = 1

 

[Command]
name = "blok"  ;Required (do not remove)
command = /z
time = 1 

 

Then a non-MK char CMD will not have, it has a section for the Finisher command, I am planning for basic finishers: mercy (I don't care if that works). 1 fatality, stage because I use stage finishers. 

So right below the above 2 commands, can add this:

 

;-[Finishers]----------------------------------------------------

[Command]
name = "fatal3"
command = F,F,F
time = 50

 

[Command]
name = "mercy"
command = D,D,D,~c
time = 50
buffer.time = 14

 

[Command]
name = "stage"
command = /$D,x
time = 40

This means that I will have a fatal made with  F,F,F to work. I took Riuky's uppercut fatal where he explodes the enemy and this will be the common fatal I will use for such non-MK chars, has the name "fatal3".

So next you need to tell what this command will do, so in CMD's [Statedef -1] add:

 

;~~~~Finishers~~~~

;Based On Raiden Uppercut
[State -1,fatal]
type = ChangeState
value = 3200
triggerall = p2bodydist X < 30
trigger1 = command = "fatal3"
triggerall = p2stateno = 9010
triggerall = statetype = S||statetype = C
triggerall = ctrl = 1||stateno = 10
trigger1 = command != "run"
trigger1 = var(50) = 0
trigger2 = enemy,time > 60
trigger2 = var(50) = 1 && random%40 < AILevel&& AILevel > 1+random%2

 

[State -1,mercy]
type = ChangeState
value = 3997
triggerall = ctrl = 1||stateno = [10,12]
triggerall = RoundNo >= 3
triggerall = numexplod(3800) = 0
triggerall = p2stateno = 9010
triggerall = statetype = S || statetype = C
trigger1 = command = "mercy"
triggerall = p2bodydist X >= 100
trigger2 = enemy,time > 60
trigger2 = var(50) = 1 && random%21 < AILevel
trigger2 = random + 600 < life || random%6 > AILevel

 

;~~~~Stage~~~~

 

(I have some stage code here to send to some state number too)

 

---------------

 

Since the goal is "fatal3", what is this statedef 3200 it wants to go to?

MKP Chars have the Finishers.st file listed in their .def, that contain the Statedef's for each finisher, what happens to maker and what happens to the loser, so I separated the file as NonMKCharsFinishers.st that contains only this fatal and it will be used by others non-MK as well. I tested already with Riuky - the code that it has is enough to run, so I separated correct amount of code. So this NonMKCharsFinishers.st would have:

 

;-------FATAL 3
[Statedef 3200]
type = S
movetype = A
physics = S
juggle = 2
ctrl = 0
velset = 0,0

..etc. 

In this way CMD has everything needed.

 

-------------------------- The DEF & Char's CNS

 

MKP Chars have their Win states (180-185) shared in MKP's COMMON1.CNS and Win sounds/state are often removed from their main CNS. 

Unlike them, the non-MK chars often have not only Win states but also Statedef -3 still in their main (CharName).cns.

 

This means often code needed for some things from MKP's COMMON1.CNS will have to be copied to the char's CNS in its own Statedef -3. Forcing a non-MK char to use the MKP's COMMON1.CNS is not needed it can even use their own Mugen default Common1.cns. 

 

in DEF file, adding these to a non-MK char's def file

st2 = ../../Data/MKP/Bmoves.st ;----May not be needed at all
st3 = ../../Data/MKP/Pit.st ;----Can be needed if it contains stage-specific states
st4 = ../../Data/MKP/Fatality.st ;----Best to be listed as it may use finish sound
st5 = ../../Data/MKP/NonMKCharsFinishers.st
stcommon = ../../Data/Common1.cns

Since a char will keep their Statedef -3 in their own CNS no need to use MKP's COMMON1.CNS and instead Mugen default Common1.cns with which they normally work.

 

Thanks to adding the "blok" and "run" in CMD the Char will not crash but let's see what works:

https://streamable.com/eq2qq3

 

1) A non-MK char does become dizzy on finish (I think that is why you need Fatality.st to be linked and for sure the code hidden below is needed for the losing Char that will be finished) and does not go on fighting, so my 1) is complete, unpolished but works.

2) THE PROBLEM

https://streamable.com/8vy8g4

(where is Cap Am's Finish, P2 Dizzy?)

MKP's COMMON1.CNS uses a code in Statedef -3 that tells it directly to check some Var's, Explods and based on them run the Finish Him/Her Text Effect, sound and causes P2 to enter Dizzy and what happens if finisher is made or just falls:

The problem is that the non-MK char does not trigger P2's Dizzy Finish Him/Her at all - and  that is what I'm trying to make, I excluded code in Riuky and saw if I delete

value = 1

he will win without finish text so if that code matters, not enough because a non-MK char will not make P2 dizzy even with all that code added in their own Statedef -3. I may be missing some anims 888, 9000 ? I added these dummies but again not sure what else to make the non-MK char make enemy in Finish Him / Dizzy.
