Character help.

I recently downloaded a character and once i select it, the game crashes and a message saying:

error in system/gethit.cns
Character needs to be updated. See docs/incompt*.txt
Error loading chars/alice/alice.def
error while precaching

How can I fix this?

[susandirs]

can you fix it?  ummm... realistically, probably not.  As soon as you try and update one aspect of an outdated character that is unplayable in your version of mugen, you'll find that it's best to just weep sadly and let the character die.

At least, that's as far as I know with outdated characters, sorry.

Outdated, eh?

the characters who usually make these errors are the ones with the .cns, .air, etc. files in folders with the DEF file outside.

It's most likely fixable.  But please Post Specifics. Which "Alice" is it and where did you download it from?

name="Alice Margatroid" ;Name of character
DisplayName="Alice Margatroid";Name of character to display
versiondate = 8,24,2001    ;Version date of character
mugenversion = 11,29,2000   ;Version of M.U.G.E.N character works on
author = "mikage"         ;Character author name
pal.defaults = 1;12,11,5,10      ;Default palettes in order of preference

I think I downloaded her at mugen-infantry.net A few other characters from the same source also have this problem O_O

Ahh yes, I will then direct you to here: http://www.mugen-infantry.net/forum/index.php?topic=103146.0

That should explain how to get Mikage's Characters to work.  Good luck.
