Help! Parrying

[unbeknowNst]

Hey hey, I'd like to know what I need to do to get a proper parry working. I don't like Warusaki3's much but I like PotS so I based mine off of his, credits to him, so I used a bit of coding from PotS. After adding in, it doesn't it work. Sooo yeah I have no idea what I'm supposed to make it work, I've tried things here and there but no lucky results. There are also some Var stuff that I don't understand.

I think it'd be easier if I just post the code....

So yeah, I tried using this by having Ryu or something shoot a hadouken and when I try to parry my character just gets hit.

[PotS]

Show the F command and extend the HitOverride time for testing purposes.

[unbeknowNst]

What do you mean by "Show the F command" ?
"F" means forward for me btw.

[Renzo F]

Show the "F" command CMD entry.

[Command]
name = "D"
command = D
time = 1

[Command]
name = "U"
command = U
time = 1

[Command]
name = "F"
command = F
time = 1

[Command]
name = "B"
command = B
time = 1
;-| Hold Button |--------------------------------------------------------------

Oh yeah, so I set:

time = 30 or something (haven't tried other values yet) but the parry did not activate

[PotS]

Are there more HitOverrides lying around in the negative states?

[unbeknowNst]

Yeah, 2 more, but that's for Aerial & Crouching Parry. According to the CMD.

[PotS]

Maybe you're already using one or both of those two vars for something else, if the whole thing works without the var triggers then that's it.

[unbeknowNst]

Well actually, all 3 use var 21 (whatever that means ???)

Hm, nope I checked my CNS and CMD for var(21) and found nothing in CNS, the only var(21) I found in CMD was in those -States above^

[Byakko]

var 21 (whatever that means ???)

Wha-- are you saying you don't know how vars work ?

[unbeknowNst]

sadly yes.
