I'm MUGEN-stupid looking for people to help walk me through this stuff

#1 December 14, 2007, 04:34:25 am

For some reason I can't figure out anything with the .cns or the .cmd. I really want to get working into MUGEN but I just can't get things to solidify into my mind. Can anyone provide any tutorials akin to "MUGEN for Dummies" or if anyone is feeling especially generous, be available to help me via IM when I try to work on my characters? I failed at a character awhile ago.

As you can see I got stuck and have no idea what I'm doing with it, but I would love to learn. I find it easier to do things when I'm taught than just reading long tutorials.

So if anyone would like to help please let me know.

My AIM is cubeking7
my MSN is Mavrickindigo@msn.com

This is how I rock...!

Do you have Kungfu Man? Most times, you can make a decent character by editing him.

Learning programming in MUGEN takes time and don't expect a good character in a week or two. Make sure you are reading the docs frequently every time you fail to understand something. A good way to start is to get KFM and look through his files, because Elecbyte put notes in them to guide the creator along.

First, make sure you read the document of the type of file you don't get. Like the cns doc.

Then read through KFM's cns and see if there's anything you don't particularly understand. Then look in the docs for the thing you don't get, then look back at the part of the cns you didn't get and look at how Elecbyte implemented it. Mess around with KFM's coding (like adding 'Null' in front of states and see what happens) as well.

If you think you know your way around KFM, get your favourite characters and start editting them and see what you can do. Things like making attacks weaker, attacks faster, attacks stronger, and stuff. Once again, if in doubt, just look at the docs as they're always there to help.

CMD is much more simpler than CNS. Basically, KFM has the whole CMD and how it works outlined for you, just read what KFM has to say inside his CMD and you'll get it sooner or later.

Get all the basics down, learn how the cns works, learn how the cmd works, make sure you're fluent in coding simple stuff and know your way around different types of states and then people will be in a better position to help. Otherwise, more often than not you'll get replies such as 'read the docs'.

There's no such thing as 'MUGEN for dummies'. You either get it or you don't.
