Points on the chart: 'Values'
L: chase (only hits downed targets)
l: hits low (must crouch-block)
m: hits medium (can crouch-block or stand-block)
M: (will be blocked if target does a crouch-block or stand-block, but will
miss entirely if target is in cn/cf)
W: (will be blocked if target stand-blocks, will hit if target crouch-blocks,
and will miss entirely if target is in cn/cf)
h: overhead (must stand-block)
H: (will be blocked if target does a stand-block, but will miss entirely if
target is crouching)
#: (will miss entirely unless target is in the air)
B: unblockable
x: not an attack
-A 'w' added after the main value means that the attack will whiff if the
target is stand-blocking.
Between values:
Between rows:
| same sprites, different speeds
I same sprites, same speed
Between columns:
- same sprites, different speeds
= same sprites, same speed
Between attacks:
. the attacks cannot connect to each other
, the attacks can connect to each other
Just below the chart will be some 'extra notes':
Lists of moves with certain properties:
Up: can function as anti-air attacks
Sw: will sweep a standing/crouching opponent
As: will 'air sweep' an airborn opponent (they will fall on their backs)
Sl: will cause your base position to move forward and stay there after the
move has finished
Hp: will couse your character to 'hop' or at least be immune to some low
attacks.
Rw: will hit opponent into other row.
R^: hit opponent into upper row.
Rv: hit opponent into lower row.
Dz: will dizzy opponent.
th: throw (toss or slam)*
gb: grab/hold*
*Angle brackets point in direction that target lands (assume facing rt).
Side of angle brackets indicate which direction to press.
-Numbers in square brackets indicate what hit qualifies for the list.
KEY TO SPECIAL MOVES
Between entries:
-Indented entries indicates a followup to most recent less-indented entry.
Within entry:
Name line:
Before the name:
* Special marker (DM,HDM,etc.)
[ ] 'Type' of attack:
0 F Fireball
* sF short Fireball
` aF air Fireball
# zF zone Fireball
% brk flurry (named after Joe's Baku Retsu Ken)
> T 'Torpedo' (horizontal move)
) sT short Torpedo
n arc arcing attack
\ div diving
^ srk vertical (named after Street Fighter's Shou Ryuu Ken)
& G Grab
K c Counter
$ tel teleport
~ indicates that the move is different from others of the same type
/ indicates that the move shares similarities to either type
... indicates that the move starts off as one type but becomes another
At the name:
Names not in parentheses indicates official name
( ) My description
? Unsure name
After the name:
( ) Height of the attacks (see 'Values' above)
-A value followed by a number means that that number of hits will be
of that height.
-Numbers preceding parentheses indicate that the parenthesized sequence
happens that many number of times.
-A "/" seperates the weak and strong versions.
-Dashes between two values indicates that the same hit could strike at
either of the values, depending on the position of the attack.
-Value followed by '->' indicates a conditional: the hit must connect
for the values following to start, otherwise the part following the '|'
will occur.
< > Range of attacks
S screenlength
s spritelength
{ } Special properties (also see 'Values' above):
a/s combination 'as' and 'sw'
n/a none
[ ] hit numbers for which the property holds
| separates properties of a conditional (see above)
/ seperates different strengths (see above)
: the values following are only valid for the button preceding.
Instruction line:
+ press both buttons at the same time
/ press either button
, then
qcf quarter circle forward (d,df,f)
qcb quarter circle back (d,db,b)
fqcd forward quarter circle down (f,df,d)
bqcd back quarter circle down (b,db,d)
uqcf up quarter circle forward (u,uf,f)
uqcb up quarter circle back (u,ub,b)
hcf half circle forward (b,db,d,df,f)
hcb half circle back (f,df,d,db,b)
dp dragon punch (f,d,df)
idp inverse dragon punch (d,f,df)
rdp reverse dragon punch (b,d,db)
KEY TO LINKS
'Line headers' consist of the moves being linked from:
-Indented 'buttons' are in most recent 'condition' (see above)
-Sprite numbers are in the most recent buttons.
Indented 'blocks' consist of moves being linked into:
-Each condition is followed by either
a button name (if that button can be linked into) or
x (if that button cannot be linked into)
-Special moves are preceded by their eligable buttons.
KEY TO SPRITES/FRAMES
, Seperates sprites
( ) frame count of named sprite
-Does not include wait periods.
-Parentheses w/o names haven't been named yet.
-Name w/o a frame count is same as closest earlier name w/i the same move.
{ } Wait period
[ ] Hit sprite
< > Might be a hit sprite
x Variable length
? Length unknown as of yet
> Pointed target
< Repeat as needed (go back to '>')
... Pointer? To fill in later?
v Pointer (look for a '-' preceding a child move)
- Pointed (from 'v' in parent move)
^ Return to pointer one level up. More ^ =more levels up.
* Interuption point (for specific actions)
_ Free point; if none indicated, assume any frame is free.
; Comment (usually for variable declarations)
Variable Decl
Interuption: move@sXfY (X=Sprite number, Y=Frame number)
Press button at designated frame.
-Sprites that look the same have the same name (ideally ^_^#).
However, they can (and usually will) have different frame counts.
-Keep in mind that moves can be interrupted (i.e. being stuffed by an
enemy's attack or doing an air move too late to complete)
[T] ??? (4m) {a/s,sl}
s.hcf+K
-If connects, will continue to hit until the far wall/barrier is reached
[] ??? (H/l) {a/s}
s.qcf+P
-Can hold 'P' to delay for a limited time, making the move basically a [c]
-While holding 'A', will counter high and medium attacks, can be hit low
-While holding 'C', will counter low attacks, can be hit high or medium
[] ??? (#/#.*) {a/s}
s.dp+P
-'C2' will hit low if target is standing or crouching without blocking,
will whiff otherwise
