I Need Help Upgrading EvE

[Mattzoso]

Hi there, I'm using DJ-VAN's EvE screen pack which (I believe) uses Winmugen. This is the old, old 2006 one. Says version .76. I have tried upgrading to 1.0 for more support for newer characters but it never seems to work. Could anybody give me a step by step guide to upgrading while staying hi res? If at all possible I would like to keep the loading screen that the original EvE has at the startup (http://i.imgur.com/XWlpoNM.png) as well as the intro (e1intro.sff). Also once upgraded is it simple as transferring my select.def, character files, and stages over to their respective folders or will I need to rewrite select.def one line by one? Thank you for reading.

I actually used this and figured it out myself. All I need help with now is changing the 1.0 sounds back to DJ-VAN's. I don't like the "FIGHT" clip that plays when a match starts, I much preferred the "Welcome back to the stage of heroes...fight!" one. Is there any way I could switch it back?

Try copying "fight.snd" file in your old EVE Screenpack and paste it to your new Mugen, make sure you create a copy/back-up of your new fight.snd file just in case if something goes wrong.

"Welcome back to the stage of heroes...fight!"

I like that sound too to be honest.

[Mattzoso]

That actually made the health bars disappear for some reason.

[mAdLaX]

As said on the shot.

[Mattzoso]

Indeed it is

[mAdLaX]

Does the lifebar goes back to normal if you restore the previous fight.snd?

[Mattzoso]

It does, yes.

[mAdLaX]

Try pasting the .snd into "mugen1" folder and see if that works.

[Mattzoso]

I pasted it in both the data and mugen1 folder at once to no avail. I have no idea. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's strange mine doesn't go like that when I tried pasting new .snd in my data.

[Mattzoso]

It didn't change the sound either. which baffles me. I mean anyone is welcome to do teamviewer but I just dunno.

[mAdLaX]

Let's try another method.

- Try renaming fight.snd to any name you want e.g.: Eve.snd
- Open fight.def and look for this line:

Code Select Expand


[Files]
sff = fight.sff
snd = VP_fight.snd <--------------- Try changing this to Eve.snd
font1 = enter48.def
font2 = num48.def
font3 = name14.def
font4 = num1.def
fightfx.sff = fightfx.sff
fightfx.air = fightfx.air
common.snd = common.snd

- DO IT in both "data" and "mugen1" folder.

[Mattzoso]

There we go. Should I copy the fight.def from my old Mugen there too?

No, because if you do that the sound goes back to fight.snd.

But you can do that, and try that method I just post. But then again back everything up before you do it.

[Mattzoso]

I could change the name of the file. I don't know what I did but when I changed it back it worked too. Maybe the .snd file was being dumb or I screwed up.

Did it solved your problem?

[Mattzoso]

I believe so. But what I'm wondering now is if I want to transfer the .def now too or if the new .def is fine how it is.

[mAdLaX]

I don't think that will work, because the EVE your using in WinMugen is for WinMugen version only and has different codings than 1.0.
