Guard Crush Recreated SyN style! (Newer, skill Lvl = Advanced)

I originally was supposed to help out Shinra with his Sfa3 style guard meter but at the same time I was working on my custom version of a guard crush.

This is the code I did. This is meant for Shinra or others in that are familiar with mugen coding to understand. I have a basic guide in this section for the Novice Creators/coders.

Anyway here is my code.

;-------------------------------------------------------
;Guard Crush Meter
;-------------------------------------------------------
[State -3]
type = helper
;trigger1 = enemy,moveguarded && anim = [120,152]
trigger1 = 1 && !numhelper(19999994)
helpertype = Normal
id = 19999994
pos = 0,0
postype = p1
name = "Guard Crush Dummy Helper"
stateno = 19999994
supermovetime = 9999999999
pausemovetime = 9999999999
ignorehitpause = 1
ownpal = 0

[State -3, ChangeState]
type = ChangeState
triggerall = var(13) != [1,100]
triggerall = Statetype = S && roundstate = 2
trigger1 = var(13) < 1
value = 160
ctrl = 0
ignorehitpause = 1

[State -3, ChangeState]
type = ChangeState
triggerall = var(13) != [1,100]
triggerall = Statetype = C && roundstate = 2
trigger1 = var(13) < 1
value = 161
ctrl = 0
ignorehitpause = 1

[State -3, ChangeState]
type = ChangeState
triggerall = var(13) != [1,100]
triggerall = Statetype = A && roundstate = 2
trigger1 = var(13) < 1
value = 162
ctrl = 0
ignorehitpause = 1


The helper is a dummy where if I needed a var or an effect to be available at all times without the negative states abusing it, I always make a Fake helper for that reason.

The Changestates are for when my guard meter is empty and if the player is standing, crouching or air born, it will play the correct state corresponding to the characters current state.

Now in the common.cns or wherever you have the standing, crouching jumping blocking states, in stateder 150, 152, and 154, add these codes,

[State 0,VarAdd]
type = VarAdd
triggerall = enemy,hitdefattr = SCA,NA
trigger1 = time = 1
v = 13
value = -3

[State 0,VarAdd]
type = VarAdd
triggerall = enemy,hitdefattr = SCA,SA
trigger1 = time = 1
v = 13
value = -2

[State 0,VarAdd]
type = VarAdd
triggerall = enemy,hitdefattr = SCA,HA
trigger1 = time = 1
v = 13
value = -2

I have my meter set to decrease from full to empty as shown in the vid. so when i guard a basic hit, i lose three points of my meter, when I guard a special or hyper attack, I loose 2 points of my meter. I will add a dampener for those GODLIKE 100+ hit hypers etc.

Ok now for my Guard Crush helper states.

Ill paste my coding's below,

There I have my variable set at var(13) = 100. I am using var 13 for my guard crush btw. all of the others below are used for something else.

These two block below,

[State 0, ParentVarSet];Sets meter on full
type = ParentVarSet
trigger1 = time = 0 || root,stateno = [160,162]
trigger2 = root,var(13) > 100; keeps meter from over flowing
v = 13
value = 100
ignorehitpause = 1

[State 0, ParentVarAdd];regenerates meter by 2 point every 100 game ticks
type = ParentVarAdd
triggerall = root,var(13) != 100
triggerall = root,var(13) < 100 && root,anim != [120,152]
trigger1 = (gametime%100)=1
v = 13
value = 2
ignorehitpause = 1

starts the meter on full and resets the meter when the players guard is broken. Also it also restors the meter bit by bit when not guardinf every second and its set to keep the meter from over flowing.

Now I have three helper blocks in in this state. two of them are place holders for player 1 and player 2's meter and the other is for some special effects I did.

now to properly make the meter scale (thanks to Rednavis help a few weeks back) is to properly place the fill bar in the sff file. If you want the meter to scale from left to right, place the fill meter on the left side of the axis where the right end meets the left side of the actual axis.

To make the meter scale from right to left, do the opposite of the above.

Now its on you code code everything in the proper position and if using an Explod for your meter Like I have, you will need a modify explod with the correct math value and var activation to make it scale from full to empty or vice versa.

here is a sample from the code above,

[State 0, Explod]
type = Explod
trigger1 = time = 1
anim = 93132
ID = 199999940
pos = 28,0;55,218
postype = p1  ;p2,front,back,left,right
bindtime = -1
removetime = -1
supermovetime = -1
pausemovetime = -1
scale = .5,.5
sprpriority = 5
ontop = 1
ownpal = 1
ignorehitpause = 1
persistent = 0

[State 0, ModifyExplod]
type = ModifyExplod
trigger1 = numexplod(199999940)
id = 199999940
scale = (root,var(13))/200.0,.5
ignorehitpause = 1

This is an explod for my meter fill sprite and I want it to scale down when guarding an attack. Just make a normal explod and then in the modifyexplod, I made it register with the guard crushed variable and its actually doubled in size, but since my value is 100, it will fit directly into my guard cruch place holder. Now when blocking, it will decrease like it should bit by bit.

This is also set up the same way for player 2 but I placed the fill meter in the opposite side of the axis.

Now in the guard crush states I have three states, 160, 161, 162

Remember the changestates I have in statedef - 3? Thats what those states below are for. When the players guard is broken, the player will go into its guard break states.

Thats basically it. I just have my meter set up to be visible when blocking and vanish when you are not blocking, its a personal preference of mines, well after having an discussion with Vyn the other night.

Anyway Enjoy, hopefully this can help you out.
