REQ: Arcade ladder alternate costumes used by NPC

Post by Voit Turyv »

Is it possible to make NPC kombatants in Arcade Ladder use other outfits as well? I'm sick of seeing their 1st costumes everytime I fight there.

I think you are referring to the All-In-One NPC Pack By Coulthar.

Well, you can't. The only way you can make that happen is by making separate DLC characters from each NPC character. Generally we cannot have alternate costumes to appear in ladder mode.

Well, for example, Shang Tsung as a sub-boss is forced to use his alternative costume... which is not the case with others. :/

In your question you only asked about the NPC.

The Boss/Sub-Boss fights in the ladder are coded differently in the game. Their character file names are hard coded. The others appear randomly and their alternate costumes cannot be substituted.

Naw, I was referring to all kombatants fought in the ladder. They are NPCs anyway...
So, I understand that, for example, I can't make Mileena appear in her second, third or UMK3 costume on the ladder when I'm fighting against her, correct?

They are not NPCs mate. Normally NPC stands for characters that are non-playable for the user. So the alternate costumes are not NPC because all of them are playable by the user. I thought you were referring to the actual NPC characters in the game. If you look at your Asset folder you can see there are characters with file names starting with NPC instead of CHAR.

Alright, my mistake. So, is it possible for kombatants to wear their other costumes as well and not just the 1st one?
