COF Update and Patron Character Pack July Release

Afternoon patrons!

The character requests for the month are ready, and they come with a version of the game reformatted to be a bit more efficient!

So what I realized is that, while the amount of ram being hogged by the game in it's recent state might not be urgent for the time being, it will very quickly turn into a problem as we add more characters. Furthermore, as we add more characters, there are times when I might need to go back and make a small change here or there to a character, whether it be a stat adjustment, texture edit, or whatever.

That said, the game now has the ability to patch characters in addition to only loading them whenever a match is started. This drastically reduces start time and ram usage. The one caveat is that there is now a bit of load time before a match can begin, depending on whether you're using DLC characters or a character built into the game. I feel like its a good trade off however.

In terms of functionality, there is now the option to differentiate between the player 1 and player 2 CPU aggression levels, as well as a new aggression bar that dictates how likely the CPU is to go after you when you're laid out.

For the new version of the game:

Move ALL your DLC into the streamingassets folder, and run the game. It should patch a few characters (some texture adjustments I wanted to make) and download some other integral files necessary for the game to load characters properly. If for whatever reason you botch this and some of your DLC won't load, just re-enter your e-mail in the box and unlock it again. The character packs for the month are posted in the chat.

Edit: You should be moving the dchar files into the streamingassets folder along with the charpck files.

Enjoy!

P.S: Just a small note for character submissions. Transparency effects on custom outfits around the chest area will cause some noticeable clipping during certain motions. I will try to keep it to a minimum, but please be aware of this going forward.
