Localcoord for 4:3

So I know that when using stagefit = 1 and using a 4.3 res Localcoord is not necessary but it still looks too darn big and its driving me nuts.
I want to move away from using zoom to scale my chars and would prefer LC.

What would be a good localcoord setting for default 320x240 stages and chars ?  I will be using a resolutin of 1280x960 or 1280x1024
4:3 mugen no zoom stagefit=1

Chars look waaay to damn big the playing area is also very small.

720p mugen with stages and chars with proper localcoord and stagefit 0


Is there a way for me to get a look like that on 4:3 with no zoom ? or how should I properly calculate the localcoord for the resolutions I want to use ?

Thanks in advcance.

I believe, for Low resolution stages, the best Localcoord to use was something around the 425,240, while chars would be around localcoord = 432,243 {Or the same as the stage}.

Using those values as base, you can play around with the localcoord by adding or removing 5% to 10% of the values until you get the looks you preffer.

I did do some fiddeling aroung with the resolution as well 1280x 760 gives me the exact same look as 1280x,960.
Now I want to know how to properly calculate the correct localcoord for the resolutions I would like to use.

Example 720p uses 427x240 for chars and stages.

Thanks

I don't know why you believe use zoom to make character smaller is bad
But Change the Localcoord is not a good idea
I made a video for it.

watch it in fullscreen.

Ive been using zoom to scale my stuff for years so I understand your video, I do like how clean the localcoord one looks.
Thanks for the help though.

Oh actually I didn't get your question

may be you are asking the 75% ratio?

4:3 LC = 320,240    => 320 / 0.75
4:3 LC = 1280,720  => 1280 / 0.75

the second LC number for chacacter have no meaning. for stage have.
so for character 1280,720 = 1280,10000
