[SOLVED] Player blocking but not receiving damage in mp

[Glitch]

I have my player with ''anim block'' , ''anim blockpain'', and with all relevant block header data (Not sure I understand them all).

Player is blocking enemy's attack but no damage is being taken via mp or even health.

I require the player to take 0.25 damage from attacks via mp while blocking.

This is the first time I am using the block ability in a character, was afraid to do it before,  hope I can get it right

Glitch, please enclose your text file examples in code tags (use the # button if you don't know how). This makes it a lot easier for us to read and decipher. There are dozens of ways you can set up blocking module wide or for individual models, but here's the most basic, global settings. From what I can tell, that should be what you need.

My apologies dc, I tried putting in a quote but could not find the quote button in new layout.
Do I just place a hash before a text and after to make it a quote?
Lol I found the quote button now  :

Hmm thank you dc, the link you provided is to the Openbor Manual which I have checked and got the above block data headers.
It is not working with those, perhaps there is some other thing else I am missing that is needed to make blocking work with damage being taken via mp, could you kindly show me an example of doing this

Not really off the top of my head then. I am about to hit the road, but I'll try to take a closer look tonight if someone doesn't beat me to it. If Bloodbane is around today he might have an answer. Oh, and btw, "DC" is just my initials, not my user name. You're tagging someone who doesn't really exist.

Thank you for the link though, sure I know everyone gets busy. Will await assistance patiently, and hey I might even figure out what is wrong in the interim

Oops!Damon Caskey  , Lol ;D I am not much of a social networking person, this and Watsapp are the only social sites I use.

Glitch  : have you declared blockratio and mpblock in models.txt yet? you need those to allow player to lose MP or HP from successful block

Nope Bloodbane , I thought they were player headers  :-[
It's working fine now after adding them in models.txt, thank you Bloodbane

Now I am going to play around with blocking and see what values in enemy attack and players ''thold'' and ''blockpain'' I need for blockpain to come into play... Would ''thold 15'' and ''blockpain 15'' be good for a character like Dean, given that the lowest enemy attack is 8 and the highest special enemy attack is 25?
