Locate the lifebar files:
MUGEN’s lifebar files are typically located in the data\fight.def or the data\lifebars folder, depending on the lifebar system you're using.
Look for a file named fight.def or something similar in the data folder or inside a specific folder for your lifebars.
Open the lifebar configuration file:
Open the .def file for your lifebars (for example, fight.def) in a text editor (like Notepad).
Adjust the lifebar positions:
In the configuration file, search for sections related to the lifebar positioning. You'll usually find settings for p1.life, p2.life, p1.power, p2.power, etc. These are the areas you need to focus on.
There will be values related to the size, position, and spacing of the lifebars.
here are all the down scale you need to add for the lifebars
also be sure to have your Calculator with you because you need to plus the value
in the data folder within the MUGEN directory (e.g., data).
The main file to edit is usually .def file, fight.def.
2. Adjust Resolution in the .def File
Open the fight.def file in a text editor (e.g., Notepad).
In this file, you'll find entries related to the settings that dictate the screen dimensions by addingn the scale value command to downscale lifebar.
