Mini-tutorial

We are about to replace the "Running Knee" technique of BLACKOPS_Swat with the "Super Kick" technique of TCTF_Swat.

Open "BINACJBOMelee Profile" in the ".raw-Editor" of OUP, go to offset 0x00A444 and highlight 88=0x58 bytes from there on:

 Offset    0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  A  B  C  D  E  F

This (the 88 bytes in bold) is the "Super Kick" technique of the TCTF_Swat melee profile.

The 4 bytes in italics are an offset into TCTF_Swat's list of moves (after the techniques).

As it happens, "Super Kick" uses 3 consecutive moves: moves 36=0x24, 37 and 38 in that list.

Now let's go to offset 0x008DD0 and highlight 88=0x58 bytes from there on:

 Offset    0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  A  B  C  D  E  F

This (the 88 bytes in bold) is the "Running Knee" technique of the BLACKOPS_Swat melee profile.

The 4 bytes in italics are an offset into BLACKOPS_Swat's list of moves (after the techniques).

As it happens, "Running Knee" uses 3 consecutive moves: moves 12=0xC, 13 and 14 in that list.

If we want to really replace the second technique with the first one, we'll have to take care of the move list.

Since both techniques use 3 consecutive moves, we'll paste the "Super Kick" moves over the "Running Knee" moves.

That means that the field in italics in the target technique will stay the same, pointing to the same 3 moves.

So we can paste the 84 first bytes of the "Super Kick" technique over those of the "Running Knee" technique.

If we stop now, BLACKOPS_Swat will have a technique "Super Kick" that will effectively be a "running knee".

(since we didn't alter the moves or the pointer to them, the technique triggers the same 3 moves as before)

Let's actually replace the "Running Knee" moves with the "Super Kick" moves from TCTF_Swat.

First, let's find the moves of the target: the 3 moves of "Running Knee" in BLACKOPS_Swat.

We need to go past the last tecniques, and pick moves 12, 13 and 14 (count starts at 0).

 Offset    0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  A  B  C  D  E  F

(the first 15 moves are in bold, and moves 12, 13 and 14 are in italics)

Now, let's find the moves of the source: the 3 moves of "Super Kick" in TCTF_Swat.

We need to go past the last tecniques, and pick moves 36, 37 and 38 (count starts at 0).

Here they are (here I will not be listing the last technique and the first 36 moves):

 Offset    0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  A  B  C  D  E  F

0000A9F0  00 00 00 00 0C 00 00 10 00 00 80 40 00 00 40 41  ..........€@..@A

0000AA20  00 00 00 00 05 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................

Now all you have to do is to take these 48 bytes and paste them over the other 48.

Now the technique that used to be "Running Knee" will truly use "Super Kick" moves.
