Welcome to the thread for this "balance mod" for DOA3, based on the Japanese DOA3.1 version.

Download v1.45 of the DOA3++ gameplay mod here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/vsbix29qrwbk0pa/DOA3++v1_45.rar/file
To "apply" the patch, get a regular copy of DOA3. In your DOA3 folder, drag the DOA3++ files inside have have them replace any existing files.
If you are trying to build an .iso for use with the XEMU emulator, Rob has written out instructions here

Many thanks to usagiZ for their help with changes to holds and parries, as well as general technical guidance.
I would also like to thank Mallo for their help reverse-engineering the game and making deeper system changes.

All of the original DOA3.1 frame data can be found here, for reference: https://www.freestepdodge.com/wiki/frame-data-doa3/

The mod has a new, unique Title ID, which means it uses a different save folder from regular DOA3. If you would like to use your old DOA3 save (Folder name 54430001), copy it into the new save folder (54430000).

I'm also open to any suggestions you might have, but please try to give me your reasoning for why you want that change.

There's a private sub forum you should have access to now, but here's what my proposed changes were to DOA3. I too didn't want to change too much in the game as I felt it was overall rather balanced or I didn't have enough ideas for how to balance some characters at the time.

  • Gen Fu
    • :3::P+K:
      • Guard Disadvantage is changed to -4. This keeps the tool usable, but not abusable - especially with his 11i :6::P: afterwards.
    • :8::8::P: / :2::2::P:
      • No longer breaks the opponent's guard and is punishable on block. The high evasiveness and speed of this attack, and post-launchable wall juggle tell that this should be punishable on block. The degree of disadvantage has been left to be determined. Up in the air if the same will apply to :6::P::P::P+K: as that string is hardly used anyways.
  • Hayate
    • :6::6_::P:
      • Guard Disadvantage is changed to negative. Considering -4 or -5. The idea being similar to Jann Lee's :6::P::K: string where he must finish it if he wants frame advantage. Keep in mind that Jann Lee's :6::P: is -11 on block, so this is still giving a slight advantage to Hayate.
    • :6::6_::P::P: / :P::P::P::P:
      • Considering change to match x05 DOA4's guard disadvantage to +1. With the changes to the above, this may be overkill to change this one - but we'll see.
    • :8::P+K: / :2::P+K:
      • Removed from the game entirely. When making these inputs, two other inputs will come out instead. Perhaps a move that didn't make it to the final game.
  • Jann Lee
    • :2::2::F+P+K:
      • Guaranteed follow-up with hit recovery to perform a launch
  • Bass
    • :6::P::K:
      • Launch height lowered. This string is the key to his long juggles, and frankly, Bass shouldn't be that much of a juggler - but will require testing. The damage from his juggles doesn't directly come from :6::P::K:, but the launches and relaunches provide a lot of strings to do damage in the juggle.
      • If this move is untouched, primary recommendation is to make :9::P::9::K: cause juggle knockdown as that's the key move that really makes his juggles rather long and damaging.
    • :6::6::K:
      • Guard Breaks or Guard Crushes
    • :3::3::P:
      • Guard Breaks - forcing the opponent to either hold :3::3::P: or throw/duck the Super Freak
    • :P+K:
      • -6 on guard making it a safe poke.
    • :4::F+P:
      • Changed to the startup 6 frame animation. Which goes against the standards for throw speeds (neutral, single command, multi-command) since it'd be the same speed as the multi-commands, but its damage potential is the primary reason for this.
Things to look at..

Baymans :7::P: javelin punch sucks. its slow, the sway evades very little, just what is it trying to set up here?

Nobody uses it for either bayman or leon in fact, it's a strike without a purpose.

Similiarly his :8::P: and :8::P::P: have issues. It's supposed to be a one-two launcher, but it rarely ever serves this purpose in an actual match.

If it was a 2-in-1 launch, or the first attack gave +1 or +2, I could see this as at least viable.

Instead its a slow, unsafe, completely telegraphed string that ANY scrub can counter on reaction.

I would rank this as perhaps the single worst string any bayman user could use. Traditionally it only lands on incredibly experienced players for the shear fact that they can't believe I actually finished the string and are completely thrown off in a moment of wtf.

It is a bad, bad, bad string.

Just wondering, have you ever taken a look at the unfinished Tengu moveset buried in the doa3 files (tengu.bin tengu.mot). It has some of his signature throws and strikes but seams very unfinished as it was probably scrapped since they had to rush the game out for the xbox launch.

Yeah, I have. Looks to me like they were in the early stages of converting him from DOA2 to DOA3, but never finished it. Kind of a shame, I would have loved to play with Tengu in DOA3's engine.

I have swapped the moveset to Bass (he seams the most functional with it) and I was only able to do a few of Tengu's moves.

Personally, I think they just dumped the data from 2U early in development and didn't bother taking him out, since it is the same framework in many cases.

Also, really looking forward to this.

So, with Mr Wah and @Rikuto 's suggestions in mind I slapped together a different mod with more of an "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"-mentality. I've tried to keep changes to a minium because I think Rikuto's mindset of adjusting useless attacks to make them useful (and leaving the rest alone) might be a better approach, though I've given a couple of characters some safe moves and frame advantage.

So there are still a couple of moves where I'm trying to think of some way to improve them.
- Bayman and Leon's 7P are kind of weird. Increased damage and being changed to knockback was my first inclination, but they could also be given something like stun-types Bayman/Leon don't currently have access to, like a faint stun.
- Hitomi's 7K seems worse in every way from her similar move F+K. It could just be left as it is, but I thought it might be fun to maybe have it spin the opponent around on block, like some of Brad Wong's kicks do.
- Ein's 6P+K. I'm leaning towards giving it its DOA4 properties like in the more heavily modified mod version, but I need to playtest it some more before I can decide.
- Zack's 1P. He doesn't really need anything to replace it, but I never really use it, so if someone thinks of something cool we basically have a spare move to play with. Could also be used to add a new stun to his arsenal, as suggested with Bayman/Leon.
- Hayate's 236P is kind of terrible. At one point I experimented with replacing it with his 8PP, but I don't really think he needs that... Same as with Zack, probably best to just leave it be for now. Another move that could be used to add a new stun to his arsenal.
- Bass's 6PK and/or 9_PK. How to deal with these basically comes down to how much damage we think Bass should get from his 4F+P and/or how badly we want to get rid of his 6PK infinite. Setting 6PK to flip the opponent over fixes that for us, but it also significantly lowers his 4F+P damage. Changing 9_PK drops his damage output less, but it means he can still do a relatively long juggle after 4F+P.
I definitely get that Bass doing long juggles is kind of out of character, but on the other hand I really like that he has a devastating 4F+P for when the opponent messes up. Basically, I can't make up my mind here.
(Adjusting juggle heights is, of course, also an option, but it's a lot more time consuming to do, as it requires finding exactly the right juggle animations and playtesting them on multiple weight classes.)

Do the 9_PK change. Go from there. In terms of the infinite, that's primarily a player positioning danger and I think should be fine. Maybe look into changing 8K to do the same as 9_PK too later. Would be actually interested in seeing that (as it is in DOA5) and how that affects his juggle damage, but I could just test that by not doing the attack in the juggle...

236P, 236P, 6PK, 236P, 9PKP for 100 damage is the highest I've found so far.
EDIT: 236P, 236P, 6PK, 3P, 236P, P+K, Air F+P for 110 is higher.

Edit: \/\/\/ Yeah, on normal hit.

Balance patches plus new costumes in 2015? DOA3's supported just as much as DOA5. Love it! Would it be possible to use your tech to finally document the frame changes from 3.1 to 3.2? Only the ninjas had changes.

We got a bunch of ideas that we would like to playtest like giving Ein a bigger GB on his 7p so he gets a guaranteed 46p, should allow for some more wall goodness. We were also talking about removing the open/close stance mechanic since DOA 3 is so fast paced to the point where we feel that it becomes more of an annoyance than an actual mechanic you can play around, so moves that could limbo would always limbo.

Unfortunately, we don't get to see each other a whole lot anymore so we can't really do any "real match" testing.

I haven't gotten around to this yet, but I'd definitely like to at some point, just having a little trouble extracting my 3.2 files right now. From what I can tell just by playing them, there weren't really any damage, animation or safety changes from 3.1 to 3.2, so I'm hoping the differences might turn out to be something juicy like hitbox sizes or crush properties, which I still don't know how to manipulate.

@grap3fruitman had someone who was working on an easy move editor for the mod. Drop down select options that would auto configure the hex. Don't know if you're using something similar or just hex editing manually everytime.

In 3, practically everyone was already... I mean you only had 3 tiers in the last list, and one of them only had one character...

I'm doing manual hex editing, which honestly isn't too bad as long as you write down all the different addresses for easy access later.

So anyway, I was watching some footage from the early builds of DOA4 where I noticed Hitomi got a limbo stun when using 6F+K. I thought that was a pretty neat idea, so I'm considering implementing that for her and Ein on counter-hit, similar to Jann Lee's F+K. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

If you're figuring out where everything is located and what everything does, writing software to change values would be relatively easy by comparison. We had basic software but not much of the format figured out. We had to figure out what move we were editing by scaling the damage on moves and writing down our findings (i.e. move 1 does 1 point damage, move 2 does 2 points, etc).

Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Why not try it out? That's the most fun part of playing around with this stuff to me. :)
