Who plays Saltybet in here? I'm crawling out of the mines at the moment.

>>15251329

Saltybet is way too random for me. it's kind of fun because you see the carziest character matches made by all different guys and playstyles. Yet nothing beats the feel of a standalone MUGEN game

>>15251323

Anon, thank you for letting me remember that this dream will never happen https://cardsagaswars.wordpress.com

>>15251340

Holy fuck anon what is this and why does it look fantastic

>>15251354

Well anon, Card Saga Wars, think of it like Marvel vs Capcom, then add so many characters that it'll made pointless to play another fighting game for several years and every single one would be tailor-made for the MUGEN game, iirc the amount of playable characters would've been huge at the time, but the developement stopped on 2012, while the developers keept saying that the project was still going.

>>15251483

Should we make an 8/v new mugen game?

How come no one every made a new fighting game engine and open sourced it? M.u.g.e.n is getting harder to get a hold off these days.

>>15251354

This project is 10+ years old holy shit.

Fucking under rock kids.

>>15251613

I've seen at least one attempt at some guy trying to make an open source fighting game engine. Was called Shinobu or something like that. Don't think it ever went anywhere and I can't find anything about it online, the guy was making his own fighting game called Fearless nights.

Seems like using Unity/Unreal is the new deal if Punch Planet is any indication.

Thanks for the thread OP, gives me an excuse to get back to the unfucking Aiduzzi project. Might have an upload later today or tomorrow.

In the meantime, personal edit of HM's MONO Freaks:

https://mega.nz/#!ChlgHAoB!KG5hXFHBPFqPLN4EZQFHuFGSSmdMuAwaC3o3EvlPah8

>/monster/ frankensprite Kula edit with gameplay I can only describe as a cross between GG's Slayer and Melty's N. Chaos plus other gimmicks

>my edit adds option of alternate combo scaling scheme, customisable subsystems, several significant bugfixes

>>15251531

Only if someone curates it properly and it doesn't end up with 324583676 low-effort characters nobody will ever use.

>>15251613

There have been some attempts but none of them have caught on as well. IKEMEN is an attempt at an open source MUGEN port but it's written in nigh-incomprehensible uncommented Jap code.

Torrent hash it is, then.

Try pasting the MEGA link on Shurcrypter then use the generated link in a download manager.

>>15251826

Why, it should be a character who's sort of obscure, a classic from a beat-em-up, was made by Technos, and was at least popular back in the day!

The Double Dragons, of course! Did you think I was gonna say Kunio?

In all honesty a new Kunio would be mega easy to make if you have MUGEN coding knowledge, the most sprite editing you'd have to do is resize via Nearest Neighbor

>>15251924

Never really liked neither River City Ransom or Double Dragon. Was the fighting game any good?

>>15251938

Which one? Rage of the Dragons? It's okay. Pretty limited, there are way too many combo filler moves.

>>15251483

>Luigi on there three times

>>15251938

>fighting game

I've never got to play any of them, so I can't really say. If you ever are looking for beat-em-ups to get into, though, I'd recommend River City: Rival Showdown on Easy, since Medium is a legitimate pain to start off on a new file maybe with the music set to off or NES. It's kind of an improved River City Ransom but still has the problem of you starting off with little, if you find that sort of thing a problem.

>>15251963

So there's more than one, i didn't know.

For a possible 8ch MUGEN i'd say we could go with Vivian, Hotwheels, Mark, etc…

>Aiduzzi

Since this is taking longer than expected, for now I'll just upload the WIP Ella edit in case anyone has any suggestions assuming anyone downloads it at all

https://mega.nz/#!OwsXgQKA!ZJW_J_MQJolQ9161UfTAEOgDk69iZkhPV0zEy9w_-Sw

>General revision of ALL hitboxes and realignment of many animations

>Vulnerable rolls/dodges

>Fixed bugs, warnings, etc

>Option to add 1 frame of startup to command throw - see var(45) in Statedef -2

>Few misc changes

Things planned but not done yet:

>Width changes on moves (constant width is one of the biggest jank enablers on these characters)

>Option for some kind of damage scaling (probably limited to supers only)

>Option to make the super drain grabs work like command grabs (whiff animation, not 0 frame etc)

>>15251565

>brokenmugen

Well, i shouldn't be surprised of the fact that it doen's start

>>15252940

>Win-mugen

Well I'm on Linux but this should work on through wine correct? I'll have to give it a look later.

I'm curious as to if there is any literature or best practices when designing a fighting game character.

>>15252982

Did you try the bat file?

>>15253021

There are an inordinate number of little things, but most of how fighting games differ is in the basics. Things like walk speed, jump arcs, player feedback like hitstop and flashes, how input and buffering work are what determine how the game feels. If I took all the fireballs out of a SF game it'd still recognisably be the same game, but if I let all the characters short hop and chain combo normals then it'd turn into something completely different. Designing a character is just expanding on those fundamentals with some kind of theme or interpretation. MUGEN is a pretty good environment for figuring out what works and what doesn't since the styles and quality vary so dramatically. The only thing I'd call a constant is that you MUST have competent animation otherwise there's no way of communicating to the player.

WHY AREN'T YOU USING IKEMEN-go+?!?

So i gotta learn Golang?

Well, that's fine by me, always wanted to learn it and that's a good excuse to start
