Texture Swapping = Alternate moveset swap?

[sffadsad]

Hey guys, today I accidentally game my Samus a Zero Suit texture (The terminator one by Stacksmash). When I loaded the game instead of it crashing Samus came out looking like ZSS. She was obviously deformed and some parts of her were glitched, such as walking, but other than that it worked pretty well. It was fun watching Zamus shoot the lasso out of her extendo finger and have missiles and energy balls fly out of her arm.

Anyway what I wanted to know is, is this common or is Samus just special?

It's called move-swapping. It happens when you give a character the wrong texture.

I gave Lucas a Mario texture. It was pretty funny, but there were bugs like you said. Walking/running was very glitchy, double jump was glitchy, the stick was invisible, and trying to grab froze the game. For some reason his hat disappeared...

I tried giving Olimar the same texture, but the game froze.

Move swapping and tex. swapping are different. The code version can do more things than the tex. swap, but freezes more often.

Swapping textures is not the same as a moveset swap, based on what Kitty Corp. member, MasterHand, has said. A video regarding this also exists.

This is known.

It's not exactly the same, but it gives much of the same effects. For example, Longchu.
