MBCH Values

"What a piece of junk!"


This page is incomplete. Please add anything relevant that you can. Keep an eye out for comments while editing, because they might note what needs to be done.

These values are for Movie Battles II Character files (.mbch), per version 1.11.

Guide

Looking to get started on making your own FA Character? Create your own .mbch file in a text editor and copy everything from the guide Frenzy made here to get a jump start! See below for the values to add in to it.

Required Flags

name

This is the name of the FA class. It has to match the filename of the .mbch, so WT_jedi.mbch will have a name value of WT_jedi.

model

The model that the class is using, for example, luke or imperial.

skin

Which variant skin is being used such as default, blue or red.

uishader

The icon displayed in the join game screen. Full path to the image required, but without file extension. The icon is usually mb2_icon_default in the models folder, for example models/players/imperial/mb2_icon_default.

To specify a level for each weapon, or in the case of grenades, number carried, add a number to the end of the string in the associated attribute. (e.g. weapon WP_BLASTER_PISTOL combined with attribute MB_ATT_PISTOL,3 results in your character carrying a Blaster Pistol Level 3.)

Westar M5

A class can be given the Westar M5 in Full Authentic if it is MB_CLASS_ARCTROOPER. First, you need to give MB_ATT_WESTARM5 at level 1 to get the Rifle. After that choose between MB_ATT_ARC_RIFLE_SCOPE or MB_ATT_ARC_RIFLE_GRENADELAUNCHER to get one of the abilities of the Rifle.

Important Flags

iscustombuild

This is explained further within this page, but essentially you must turn this on if you want your FA character to have a point purchasing structure instead of static attributes.

resource

This changes the resource bar of your character depending on your desired ability set of that character. It defaults to whatever bar is used by that class in Open.

RESOURCE_BATTERY	Uses SBD Battery
RESOURCE_DEKASHIELD	Uses Deka shield bar
RESOURCE_ENERGY	Uses Energy (dodge/cloak/etc)
RESOURCE_FORCE	Uses Force Points
RESOURCE_FUEL	Uses Fuel bar
RESOURCE_RAGE	Uses Fury bar
RESOURCE_STAMINA	Uses Stamina bar
RESOURCE_SUPPLY	Uses Supply bar

skilltimermod

Affects ability and force power cooldown meters (?). Higher values = slower cooldown. Base value of 1. To be used with rankSTM for custom point buy.

maxhealth

How many health points the class has.

maxarmor

How many armor points the class has.

classNumberLimit

Limits how many of this class can be in play at one time. If 0 or unspecified, there will be no limit to the number of this class.

respawnCustomTime

In milliseconds (so, 6 seconds would be 6000), sets the timer for respawns if the map has _ctf_ in it's name.

extralives

Number of respawns you get. Overrides any MB_ATT_RESPAWNS entries.

damageTaken

(default - 1, 0.8 would reduce damage felt by 20%)

damageGiven

(default - 1, 0.8 would reduce damage output by 20%)

knockbackTaken

(default - 1, 0.8 would reduce kb taken by 20%)

knockbackGiven

(default - 1, 0.8 would reduce kb output by 20%)

rateOfFire

(default - 0, 0.8 would increase firing speed by 20%)

rateOfFire_Melee

(default - 0, 0.8 would increase melee firing speed by 20%)

ASmultiplier

This multiplies the attack (animation) speed multiplier for saberists. This is the same as animSpeedScale within .sab editing. Default is 1.

CSmultiplier

Chain Speed Multiplier - this quickens the amount of time required before another BP damaging move can land (higher # = faster chain speed). Default is 1.

APmultiplier

This multiplies the number of attack points a saberist has by the value. Default is 1.

BPmultiplier

This multiplies the number of block points a saberist has by the value. Default is 1.

FPmult

Force Point damage modifier. Default is 1. This alongside the below multipliers should be placed within WeaponInfo:

• FPChargeMult - Charge weapon FP multiplier
• FPBlockMinMult - Minimum FP Damage possible
• FPBlockMaxMult - Maximum FP Damage possible
• FPNoBlockMinMult - Minimum FP Damage possible when not blocking
• FPNoBlockMaxMult - Maximum FP Damage possible when not blocking

noGunbash

Value of 1 disables gunbash on the class.

saberDamage

Force all the FA characters Saber damage across all styles to be this flat amount (it is possible to have a negative value for healing allies/enemies). Overrides any .sab file values, but not .mbch dmggiven values.

saberThrowDamage

Force the saber throw damage to this flat amount for this FA character (it is possible to have a negative value for healing allies/enemies). Overrides any .sab file values, but not .mbch dmggiven values.

startArmor field (Default of -1)

if -1 maxArmor is start armor

if -2 Open Mode MB_ATT_ARMOUR value based on rankArmor

baseSpeed

Determines speed as a set value, regardless of MBClass (If you wanted to make any class move as fast as a Hero, you would input 250)

speed

Determines speed as a multiplier of MBclass speed (MBClass Jedi = 225, so 1.11 speed = 250)

saberMaxChain

From 1 to 255, set a combo limit on saber swings. To be used with rankSaberMaxChain

Resource Auto Regen Manipulation

For reference, these are the default rates at amounts at which the various resources regenerate

Force = 1/150ms

Energy = 1/200ms

Battery = 3/1000ms

Rage = 1/1000ms

Stamina = (level*2) + 3/1000ms

Fuel = level/1000ms

Supply (currently wip) = 6/1000ms

forcepool

forcepool along with a value of 1 to 999 is used with any of the above resources to determine the points in said resource. e.g. forcepool 55 with RESOURCE_ENERGY gives you 55 energy points. No value results in 100 points.

forceregen

A multiplier for the rate at which the player's Force Points regenerate AND drain. For example with a value of 2 it would go twice as fast. Not compatible with CFL_FASTFORCEREGEN. Regen will default to 1 when not included.

When using RESOURCE_RAGE with MB_ATT_WOOKIEE_FURY, slower regen speeds (such as 0.5) cause Fury to be used up slower when using Wookiee Rage, higher speeds increase this consumption.

Untested if this works with MB_ATT_FUELREGEN to increase/decrease regen speed.

healthRegenAmount

(integer)

healthRegenRate

(integer)

armourRegenAmount

(integer)

armourRegenRate

(integer)

resourceRegenAmount

the amount at which resource regens per rate. So if you wanted default Energy regen, this would be set at 1

resourceRegenRate

the rate at which resource regens per amount. So if you wanted default Energy regen, this would be set at 200 (in ms)

resourceRegenCap

default is 100

Custom BP modi

blockRegenAmount

how many ticks per rate are added, default is 4

blockRegenRate

Every 400ms you get 4 bp if saber defense 2/3 and 3 if you are defense 1.

blockRegenCap

default is 100

Resource Auto Regen Manipulation per Rank (All whole Number Integers)

jetpackFuelAmount

DEGREGATED - Overrides default amount of BP/Fuel/Stamina added per second (8 would be default if trying to match standing BP regen). Frenzy invented a new word 'degregated'.

jetpackFuelCooldown

DEGREGATED - The amount of time in milliseconds until jetpackFuelAmount generates. Overrides default function of BP/Fuel/Stamina bar's (default would be 1000 if using the example of a Jedi standing and holding block).

jetpackFuelCap

DEGREGATED - Sets the max number BP/Stamina/Fuel can regenerate to.

special# - EAS_ (Class Specials)

Specials rebinding

You can specify what special moves you want on which keybind per character here. These use Entity Action Skills (EAS). Note that some specials can be bound without accompanying specials/WP/ATT. For instance, you can give a class Wookiee Barge without Fury. Experiment with different combinations! Be sure you have all 4 class specials bound in the controls menu. It is (usually) preferable to define each special so attributes do not automatically pick unwanted special slots, but as of v1.11 this is not always the case. Be aware that attributes may assign themselves specials binds if not overridden.

Example:

special1 EAS_HI_STAMINA

special2 EAS_HI_DASH

special3 EAS_HI_DODGE

Saber Attributes - wip

These are only needed if your class has a WP_SABER.

saber1

If a class has a lightsaber, specifies which hilt it should use (for example, Vader or Luke_Ep6).

If you want to add/replace different sounds, effects or models to your saber (or turn it into a sword/melee weapon), you will need to create or use an existing .sab file. There is a guide for that: Creating a .Sab file.

saber1_1

If a class has multiple saber options, append numbers like this

saber2

If the class is using two lightsabers (this requires SS_DUAL), specifies which hilt or .sab file (again, see the Creating a .Sab file guide for more customization possibilities) the second saber should be.

sabercolor

What color the lightsaber blade is. Defaults to blue if not specified. Open mode fractional values can also be applied, such as 0.55 for a light blue color.

sabercolor	Description

attributes - MB_ATT_

Attributes are used to modify levels/numbers of abilities/attributes/weapons per class file. They often correspond with WP weapons and specials to achieve a desired result. Note that some classes can use attributes from other classes, but this is limited, not all classes can use all attributes from other classes. They are separated by a "|" in the .mbch file.

To specify either the level for attributes/abilities/weapons or number for grenades, add a ",#" after each attribute, e.g., MB_ATT_STAMINA,3 is Stamina level 3, MB_ATT_BLASTER,2 is E-11 level 2, MB_ATT_FIRE_GRENADES,10 gives your class ten fire grenades. this may change soon

Optional (add-on) Attributes

Optional skin attributes

customred

Amount of red for custom RGB model. Between 0 and 1 (decimals included).

customgreen

Amount of green for custom RGB model. Between 0 and 1 (decimals included).

customblue

Amount of blue for custom RGB model. Between 0 and 1 (decimals included).

speed

This is a multiplier of the speed of the player. It is applied on top of class-specific things. speed 0.75 on a Jedi would mean at three-quarters of the normal speed of a Jedi.

Jetpack Overrides

These lines override default jetpack effects and sounds:

• jetpackThrustEffect "directory/effect"
• jetpackIdleEffect "directory/effect"
• jetpackThrustSound "directory/sound"
• jetpackIdleSound "directory/sound"
• jetpackStartSound "directory/sound"
• jetpackFinishSound "directory/sound"

In case you wish to move your effects to a different area of the body, this override allows you to choose which tagged part of the body on the model:

• jetpackJetTag "*torso"
• jetpackJet2Tag "*torso"

modelscale

Scales the playermodel and the players hitbox, so smaller players can go through smaller places. Overrides wookiee and SBD scaling - not currently droideka compatible.

meleeknockback

The multiplier for the amount of knockback players receive when hit by the class's melee attacks.

meleeknockback_flat

creates a flat knockback amount for all melee moves, any value below 0 will have the scale based on damage

meleeknockback_mult

creates a multiplier value that defaults to 1.0f and can be negative to inverse the knockback to provide additional postive or negative knockback to the above flat value.

customveh

The value should be the vehicle name in the .veh file. This allows the substitution of the droideka vehicle for a different vehicle if the class is MB_CLASS_DROIDEKA. For more on this see using customveh.

rageSoundOverride

Replaces the sound when activating Wookiee Fury

bargeSoundOverride

Replaces the sound when using Wookiee Shoulder Barge

Animation Overrides

These lines override default animations, allowing for fun/creative new animations per character. The majority of usable animation examples can be found in FAs like Legends, MovieGameMapPack and other larger FAs. It is suggested to use these within your .mbch instead of within .sab files to avoid reaching max config string errors.

• tauntAnim nameofanim
• bowAnim nameofanim
• meditateAnim nameofanim
• flourishAnim nameofanim
• gloatAnim nameofanim
• saberStanceAnim nameofanim
• deathAnim nameofanim
• RunForward / RunBackward /WalkForward /WalkBackward nameofanim
• idleAnim nameofanim
• firingAnim nameofanim

Note that animation changes also affect hitbox/hurtbox?/bounding box? placement. Research is needed.

meleeMoves

Optional method of customizing what melee moves any class has. Works similar to attributes, each move separated by an |.

Example: meleeMoves M_PUNCH|M_KICK|M_JUMPKICK|M_LEGSWEEP|M_UPPERCUT (would give the class no blocking or kata melee).

Also see: disableGunbash

meleeMoves	Description
M_BLOCK	Block
M_FBKICK	Front-to-Back Kick*
M_JUMPKICK	Jump Kick
M_KATA	Kata*
M_KICK	Kick (Slap if Wook/SBD)
M_LEGSWEEP	Legsweep†
M_PUNCH	Punch
M_RLKICK	Right/Left Kick
M_UPPERCUT	Uppercut

*Important to note some of these animations may not work with the new SBD skeleton. †Characters sized to be smaller than default may have issues connecting this.

Weapon Overrides HELD_ and Weapon Names WP_

Customizing weapons has even more to it than just weapon flags, so it gets a page all to itself at Mbch Weapon Overrides. This allows for the weapon model and effects used by a class to be changed by the FA maker. Each weapon override for a class is inserted as a block of text.

weaponflags HELD_

These are special properties that apply to individual weapons. They either change how the weapon behaves or affect the user in some way while they are actively held. Not all held flags work on every weapon (yet). Multiple flags can be applied to a single weapon for interesting effects.

weaponflags	Description
HELD_ALTRELOAD	The weapon uses a magazine-based reload system like the Westar M5, at a fixed length regardless of current clip. (Speed can be altered with WeaponInfo: ReloadTimeModifier field)
HELD_AMMOREGEN	The weapon regenerates a small amount of ammo over time while active. Doesn't work with HELD_ALTRELOAD (?)
HELD_DISRUPTIFY	This weapon's projectile will cause players it hits to vaporize on death, similar to the Disruptor.
HELD_EXPLOSIVE	The weapon's hit effects are an explosion, dealing (set) (for now) damage in an area. It is recommended to add an explosion effect if the weapon does not have one, to help players visualize the AoE when creating a custom weapon. Notable observations: Flechette alt-fire balls cause explosive damage continuously until they stop bouncing.
HELD_FREEZE	Freezes targets. Lasts only a split second compared to a Cryo Grenade or Icethrower's effects.
HELD_FLAME	Ignites targets. Lasts a shorter time than a Fire Grenade or Flamethrower's effects.
HELD_HEAL	The player slowly regenerates HP while the weapon is active.
HELD_HIGHDAMAGE	The weapon deals double/100% its normal damage value. Also applies to force drains(?)
HELD_IGNOREBLOCK	Weapon ignores Saber Defense.
HELD_KNOCKBACK	The weapon's hit effects will knock back targets similar to Force Push 1.
HELD_KNOCKDOWN	The weapon's hit effects cause targets to be knocked down.
HELD_KNOCKDOWNRESISTANCE
HELD_LOWDAMAGE	The weapon deals half/50% its normal damage value. Also applies to force drains(?)
HELD_POISON	The weapon applies a shortened poison dart effect to targets that take damage from it. Poison effect will reset timer but not stack if multiple hits are made.
HELD_PULSE	The weapon applies the pulse grenade effect to targets that take damage from it, but it only drains half of the enemy magazine instead of all of it.
HELD_SLOW	The player moves at 0.85 times of their default movement speed while the weapon is active. (15% slower)
HELD_SLOWPROJ	The weapon's projectile will move at 1/4 of its default speed. (75% slower)
HELD_SONIC	Causes a brief Sonic lock. Considerably shorter than a Sonic Grenade effect.
HELD_SPEED	The player moves at 1.15 times of their default movement speed while the weapon is active. (15% faster)
HELD_STUN	Causes a brief stagger (similar to Gunbash). Strength 3 characters will not be stunned. Lasts longer/shorter depending on knockback given and taken. (Needs research)

If the weapon name is WP_REPEATER then the weaponflag field would be named WP_RepeaterFlags. If the weapon name is WP_ROCKET_LAUNCHER then the weaponflag field would be named WP_RocketLauncherFlags.
