Where would casting skill animations be at?

There's no need to edit .stck files.

If yes, then tou must know, that there's CombineActNames in .ecm file, wich says, what action is this. In that CombineActName there's name link to animation it self.
Example: you are jumping. There's an action in .ecm file, smthing like "Jump" (On Chinese), it links to animation, wich is playing, wile doing this action.

How to fix? Replace CombineActName to you needed.
How to understand what change to what? When I was fixing mounts, flyes, etc., I was translating CombineActNames with google translate, and by translation I was guesing wich action I need.

Ok an animation have two important parameters to modify.

-Efects: The ligths or effects, in profesional terms its name is particle system, of the skill.

-Animations: Named clips.Is the player movement when cast skills.



OK to edit Effects you need to unpack gfx.pck with PWPack.exe and edit the files stored inside.

For change animations you need first you fix ecm files with sMODFix and later you would change animations with sACTedit.

Skill A links to gfx/file/file/skillA.gfx


Not how to edit them :( Im just trying to figure out where they are in the client now.

Does anybody have teamviewer or msn im seriously willing to pay for help if someone will just show me where to look now because i dont think anybody understands what im trying to ask here.


I think i may be describing it wrong so i took a short video to show you all exactly what im trying to do. Im just trying to link the skill effect to the skill.


extra extra example:

About effects:
.att files links to .gfx files, and that's how it works.

You see, the game links to .ecm file, and when you trying to use skill, it loos for some CombineActName, which is action.
That action has animation, and some effects.

Your animation doesn't work, because game couldn't find needed CombineActName in the .ecm file.

For example:
In Your Game:
CombineActName: SuperCombo (it's an action)
BaseActName: SuperCombo (it's an animation)
AtkPath: SuperCombo.att (it's an effect)

In Some Other Wanmei Game:
CombineActName: SuperPunch (it's an action)
BaseActName: SuperPunch (it's an animation)
AtkPath: SuperPunch.att (it's an effect)

Your animation didn't works, because game looks for CombineActName: SuperCombo, but there's no SuperCombo, there is SuperPunch, and game don't use it, because nothing links to it.

You need to make somthing like that:
CombineActName: SuperCombo
BaseActName: SuperPunch
AtkPath: SuperPunch.att
