List any undocumented features one may find in 1.0 0r 1.1 in this thread
Apparently there is an undocumented Zoom SCTRL in 1.1b.

Code: 
[State 0]
type = Zoom
scale = value
pos = x, y

Parameters:
  • scale - The value by which to zoom in. A value of 1.0 or greater is required. A value of 2 will double the scale of all sprites.
  • pos - The position on screen to bind the zoom, relative to the center of the screen. A value of Pos X, Pos Y will zoom in on P1.
  • lag - Unknown; all it appears to do right now is break the SCTRL entirely.


Not sure what other parameters there are. Postype does not appear to do anything, which makes sense since they're deprecating it. This post will be edited as more information is found.

HUGE thanks to Websta for finding this!

So this is character specific?? Awesome.

Yea, I'm coding illiterate but I'd love to learn. This is certainly a cool find. ;D

Yeah, but I figured everyone knew about it or something. I wondered since I saw that back then and figured "huh, maybe it's old news."

Whatever, the more folks know about this, the better. Leaves room for some absolutely crazy stuff!

Judging by the screenshot in the Japanese blog, it zooms everything (except the screenpack - the bars, portraits and timer), but it's triggered in the character's code. Dunno what it does when both characters use a zoom at the same time. Also lol the afterimage after the zoom has ended stays zoomed.
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

Yeah, that's why I plan to only use it for winposes for the current game I'm working on. Which reminds me, what software should I use convert raw avi files into those cool webm videos? :P

I can't find the purpose of the lag parameter. Anything higher than 0 disables my zoom completely.

I found another graphical glitch. This sctrl doesn't seem to interact very well with explods in the background. It will displace them and ruin the position of explods.

This guy with the white shirt is coded as an explod with mugen 1.1 parameter (So it doesn't use deprecated postypes) with pos=0,0 (The sprite itself doesn't have the axis at the center of it though) and it's bind to a helper with postype=left and pos=160,23 (Center of screen, ground level).
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty

Stage zooming doesn't have this glitch.

Well it is undocumented, so that's probably one of the reasons.

I think I know why. This zoom is not the same one as the stage zoom. It closes the camera to a certain bindpoint but it will never force the camera to scroll at all. This is merely just an amplification of a certain spot of the screen. It doesn't interact with the stage camera parameters at all.

This would actually be quite interesting, if it gets added into MUGEN on the next update.

I know GM actually made his version of camera zooming for his SF3 characters, but it takes up several variables, and it doesn't affect the actual stage, and, instead, affects the players, projectiles, and helpers only.

I just want to say, Jmorphman, that Ryu edit is sexy.


You should update him to have that, along with the details that later P.o.t.S characters have.

On the risk this is a silly question, I feel compelled to ask: what if the character with this zoom is hit in the middle of it? Long shot, I know, but would it bug out unless you specify a zoom out or would it just instantly zoom out or what?

Also, what about stages with zooming out implemented?

From my experience, the zoom is reset when they're hit. You can solve that using one of the negative states and a variable.

That's probably done using character scaling and is not the same thing.

Actually, the BG is zooming in that too. Or i'm seeing an optical illusion. Still, 1.1 has been out with zoom for ages, perhaps the sctrl existed that far back and nobody actually bothered to tell people.

It appears to be faked, indeed. The stage freezes, which means it's a static image. The characters also misalign.
