Help with Big Portraits (9000,1) in my Screenpack

Hi guys,

I changed my screenpack almost two years ago to the "Mugen Multiverse - Cross generation of fighters - 720p - 1.1" and I've been looking for a solution for something that I consider a problem, but didn't find a thing

So, that'ts the situation:

The screenpack have two Big Portrait options:

Custom


Original


I was changhing the Big Portrait sprites (9000,1), but then I realized "Probably I'm not going to use this Screenpack forever..." and I though about all the job to change every single Big Portrait back again.

So, I just decided to change system.def to recognize another sprite number. Doing that, I will just have to add a new portrait without losing the original Big Portrait. Easy, right?

But it didn't work, and I don't know why  

I know that Mugen works with:

9000,0 - Small Portrait
9000,1 - Big Portrait
9000,2 - Victory Portrait
9000,3 - Lifebar Portrait

But the point is, I already saw lots of characters with other sprites in the 9000 group, but no matter what number I use, the Screenpack don't recognize it.

Am I doing something wrong? Or it's impossible to do that?

I hope you guys can clarify things for me, it will be much apreciated hahaha

Hey bro, in teh system.def of your screenpack you can define the number of sprite of 9000 group (like you have many of sprite for that group).

Search the line i have colored in red... your file must be something like this...there you can define the sprite number for the big portrait.

Good Luck bro !!!!

My screenpack didn't have that line indeed, but I'm still in trouble

I was able to manage between sprites from 9000,0 to 9000,2 to appear in the Select Screen, but other than that simply didn't work

Most of my characters have an 9000,3 sprite that I addeded for the lifebar, but that didn't work too

I don't know what to do

Anyone?

I have the same question actually.
I was able to get sprites sprites from 9000,0 to 9000,2 to appear on the Select Screen, but other than that no other number would work.

I'd like the screen pack to look at 9000-4 instead of 9000-0 and 9000-5 instead of 9000-1.

The 900,0 and the 9000,1 are predef with the 9000, 2 on the win but i duno what number works on the vs screen, on the life bar depends of the file

you only cam use 9000,0 ,1 or 2 for the select screen, above this only for lifebars and for stuff of the characters like hyper portraits

i try to change on my screenpack too this you need to add the new image as  9000,1 and chage the original if you dont want to replace to another number exemple 9000,123456


agora que eu vi que você e daqui adiciona a imagem que você quer e troca a que já esta para outro numero ai quando vc trocar de screepack vc volta a original e muda a que vc adicionou

What portrait works with the vs screen? i doen´t want to use the 9000,1 port and change the number but, the port doesn´t load on the MUGEN

only 9000,1 9000,0 9000,2

add you new portrait with another number than change the original 9000,1 to another number like 9000,123456 after that change the new portrait to 9000,1 if you want to use old just back that to 9000,1 and change yours to 9000,123456
