On #5, all these elements are either Helpers or Explods.

If they are helpers, locate the state of the Helper used as the background element and add this line of code to every helper state:
[State 0, AssertSpecial]
type = AssertSpecial
trigger1 = 1
flag = invisible
ignorehitpause = 1

You don't need to replace the sprites within the character or the animations in it. That code will automatically make them invisible.

If they are Explods, simply modify the scale parameter with this:
scale = 0,0
This will make the background element invisible

These methods are non-destructive, meaning that you can undo them easily in case you need them back.

First, you need to understand the game or system you are trying to replicate or at least have a similar look and feel. It is also a good idea to play lots of different FG series to see how they work. If you only play KOF or Smash Bros, even if you are a master at them, you will lack the knowledge of other systems.

Good mugen characters are obtained through a deep research.

- Analyze the combo and cancel system. Analyze the combo ladder and which moves can be cancelled into another and which not.
- Analyze basic parameters such as velocities, gravity and hitpauses. If you can't extract this data from ArtMoney or a similar tool, you will have then to count the ticks directly and do calculations
- animation timings must be also correct, otherwise the character would be unbalanced (like a light punch coming slower than a strong one).
- Analyze if the game has a damage dampening system and how it works.
- Collision boxes must be equal to the game source. Nowadays, almost all fighting games have some way to display them. If for any reason, your game doesn't have a hitbox viewer, then having a solid knowledge on how collision boxes work in other games will allow you to come up with a good standard for your character, this is why it's also important to play as many games as possible.
- Last but not least, experience also helps. All mugen character creators have made horrible characters on their beginnings. Don't be ashamed if your characters are not POTS-level yet. You will achieve it with experience and time. Listen to feedback from other people, there is always someone who will be better than you and his advices will help you to become a better creator. Learn from your mistakes and improve from them.

Making a mugen character is as easy as placing a bunch of sprites together and coding some lines, but if you want to create a good character, then you need to do a lot of research.

Not expecting PSN to be back for a while. If PSN gets crippled this badly on a DDOS attack, it really shows Sony doesn't even have a proper Plan B for this situation.

What would you expect from a company that stored credit card information from their users in a plain text file?

You don't have to use C++ to code mugen characters, not even before FF.
Before FF there were other similar tools that weren't really stable and tended to corrupt the characters. And before these tools you had to use notepad to create the characters, which you can still use nowadays

If you are using 1.0 or 1.1, ensure that you do not have a RemapPal active on your code

Electro's code is basically for the player to go to a custom state after being defeated. I believe the OP is asking for the opposite, put the enemy into a custom state and have him explode after being KO'd.

To place the enemy in a custom state when he's KO'd, you will need to hit the enemy with a projectile in the same instant he's defeated. The projectile will put the enemy into a custom state of yours where you can do anything to him.

When you skip the intro, and respawn the helper at the beginning of the round, you can place it wherever the helper would be if the intro wasn't interrupted. Same if the helper evolves or changes its state, just respawn it on the same condition he would be if the intro was fully played.


P.S: Yes, it seems we Spaniards are a small minority in this community, but I'm glad to see other peers around.

Helpers are always removed when skipping intro. The easiest way to fix it is to respawn the helper again at the start of the round if it no longer exists.

This is because Goku's temporarily in a custom state, which plays the default KO sound for the character

Two painted chow chow dogs posing as pandas have been seized from a circus in northern Italy, after tricking children into handing over cash, police have said.

The male and female dogs were seized by police after it became clear that they were not, in fact, pandas.

When you use -1, it stops all channels for all players. I can't see any scenario where you would like, for example, stop channel 5 on both characters, but let channel 4 and 6 still being played, unless you are working in a full game, because you have no control on what sound channels are being played by the other character in an open game.

And if you are working on a full game, then it's easy for you to use a channel specific stopsnd in both characters at the same time

Un spambot es básicamente un programa que automatiza las acciones que haría un usuario, de forma que es capaz de registrarse en un foro, acceder a una sección y postear un mensaje.

Los "spambots" originalmente se usaban para labores de automatizacion de testing, para verificar o comprobar acciones básicas y repetitivas en un entorno web, pero un buen dia alguien penso que se podrian utilizar para hacer spam
