Congratulations! I started with Mugen in 2001 on MugenDev and just turned 40 this year. Thought I was pretty old myself.

Just out of curiosity: is your "Save the Animals!" a reference to the recurring Games Done Quick meme?

I wonder how people are going to abbreviate the game title. I'm for MK1R (Mortal Kombat 1 Reboot) personally.

I've been curious: what's been the state of the Guild/Mugen community in general? Lately it seems like all I'm seeing is:
- Posts here in the Guild every now and then (maybe like 1-2 every few hours). Someone is still keeping the lights on (thanks for that!)
- Drama is still a thing.
- Occasional new releases.
- Ikemen GO/Mugen alternatives are thriving.

By standards, figure you have the "all around" character like Mario in Smash Bros, Ryu in Street Fighter, SpongeBob in Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, etc. The "standard/baseline" would involve attributes such as:
- Amount of air time (in frames) after a jump.
- Typical frame data for all normals.
- Damage output.
- Life/Attack/Defense values.
My MK Too game currently stands at 67 characters, but they were all created from the same basic template. A majority of the attacks were copy/paste with little regard for factors such as damage output, hit stun, frame data, etc. Before I start adding new characters, I'd like to go through the entire roster again, classify the trope that each character falls into (Grappler, Glass Cannon, Fragile Speedster, Zoner, etc) and readjust their attributes such that their character trope can be properly applied.
I'm not sure what's been going on with the site recently but as of Saturday afternoon every time I try to access my page on here (or other users like Kamakaze), I'm met with a 403 error. Is it just me?

Oh hi. Here's an early Christmas present.
Changes
- 12 new characters added including 4 secret characters.
- Various bug fixes and AI tweaks.
- More character rebalancing across the entire roster.
- A port to Ikemen GO, which utilizes the character unlocking feature for the secret characters.
NOTE: The Mortal Kombat stage finishers in their current form are incompatible with Ikemen GO due to differences in how the camera acts with specific bounds and Z-offsets. Rather than attempting to convert over 60+ characters to utilize the Ikemen GO standard for stage interaction, I opted to just forego the Mortal Kombat stages completely in the interest of retaining compatibility with Mugen. - Expanded the Troubleshooting section to include questions for Ikemen GO.
- Added a character filter (top right) to narrow down specific character traits.
New Characters
- Ra - The Egyptian pharaoh.
- Jim Bob - A parody of redneck stereotypes.
- Master Baiter - Don't let his name fool you. He's a master angler.
- Sanna - Yoga is good for your health. Namaste!
- Atlas - What he lacks in speed he makes up for in power.
- I.C. Wiener - Nevermind what Futurama says. He really exists!
- Demi - A Gyrokinesis user.
- Ace - A volleyball player.

in Ikemen GO bug reports (Started by Gacel September 09, 2019, 11:26:09 pm
Board: IKEMEN Releases
I think I ran into a bug in Training Mode. I've got a bunch of slots that are for secret characters until specific unlock criteria is reached. Until then, they're supposed to be treated as random slots. When I move the P2 character select icon over these slots in Training Mode, then still act as a random slot, but instead of saying "Random", the character name displayed is the name of the secret character. Note that I removed the default training character from the config.json file so I could manually select a character to train against.
Also note that I am using a custom motif.
EDIT: I tried a few other modes and it happens there too:
- Quick Match with P2 cursor.
- Watch Mode with P1 and P2 cursor.

I hate Mondays.
Thanks for the troubleshooting ideas. I'll give those a try.
I've run into another bizarre graphical issue. The Metro City Gym stage appears different between Mugen and Ikemen GO. For some reason, this stage's graphics were implemented by inserting the background elements as tiles piece by piece in a grid like fashion where each tile is in a specific part of the background, then the stage DEF file inserts them all at the same origin point. There's over 1000 tiles in all. Not sure why it was implemented this way.
I'll let the differences speak for themselves:
Mugen 
Ikemen 
Any ideas on how I could fix this in Ikemen?

I was legit 
during that reveal trailer. Not only is my favorite crossover game finally drawing to a close, but the character they chose is one from a game I played when I was fresh out of high school and beginning my journey to adulthood...
When one chapter ends, another begins. I can now look forward to Nickelodeon All Star Brawl and the reveals it brings.
Any idea on how to resolve the problem where when the user opens the Windows version of Ikemen GO, there's no video (black screen) but audio? I'm pretty sure it has something to do with their graphics card (Intel vs nVidia). I did some research to see if a solution has already been found (like a configuration change), but I was unsuccessful.
I'm running into another difference between the two engines. I have the game resolution set to 1920x1080 for both engines. Note the differences in the same resolution between the two versions:
Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
In MUGEN, the localcoord for everything is 320x240 but it's scaled up to the game resolution (the sides of the screen appear with black bars. I'm fine with this). In IKEMEN, everything is scaled both horizontally and vertically (there are no black bars on the sides). I prefer the way MUGEN does it because in IKEMEN the gameplay appears off due to scaling. Also of note, I'm using the same motif for both engines with little/no changes in any configurations. I want to have the full game behave exactly the same in both engines.
How can I properly configure IKEMEN to reproduce how MUGEN renders the game graphically?
Wait... these 2 images do not have the same resolution.
The Mugen one is 1920x1440 and the Ikemen Go one is 1920x1080.
I did what Taybear suggested and got the resolution I wanted. Sorry I didn't clarify.

For now, it's maybe worth pointing that Taybear and I released a version of The Pit 2 that uses AttachedChar and integrates the fatality without any code char-wise.
Yes, I'm already aware of this. I've utilized all of Taybear's legacy Mortal Kombat stages for my stage finishers. I want my game to be compatible with both MUGEN and IKEMEN. I would prefer not to have to go through the process of having to develop IKEMEN stage finishers for every stage which would also involve needing to rip the code out of every character in my game (I currently have 65 characters).
I've run into another compatibility issue between MUGEN and Ikemen GO. Since MUGEN doesn't have native support for stage finishers, I created a workaround using internal character code working in tandem with the stage (in this case: The Pit II by TayBear). The relevant code in the stage.cfg file is as follows:
Code: [Info]
name = "The Pit 2"
author = "Taybear"
mugenversion = 1.0
[Camera]
startx = 0
starty = 0
boundleft = -585
boundright = 585
boundhigh = -150
boundlow = 480
verticalfollow = 1
tension = 80
floortension = 90
[PlayerInfo]
p1startx = -80
p1starty = 0
p1startz = 0
p1facing = 1
p2startx = 80
p2starty = 0
p2startz = 0
p2facing = -1
leftbound = -1000
rightbound = 1000
topbound = 0
botbound = 720
[Scaling]
topz = 0
botz = 50
topscale = 1
botscale = 1
[Bound]
screenleft = 35
screenright = 35
[StageInfo]
zoffset = 212
autoturn = 1
resetBG = 1
Note the boundlow of 480. What's supposed to occur in the stage finisher is a character is uppercut, then they fly up and down past the bottom of the screen where the camera should proceed to scroll downwards a short distance before stopping. Internal character code handles the rest of the finisher.
The issue I'm running into is the difference in how the stage appears:
Mugen 1.1 
IKEMEN GO 
When I perform the finisher despite the camera positioning in IKEMEN, it acts the same as it does in MUGEN. I'm obviously going to have to change some configuration to fix the camera's Y positioning, but I'm not sure what it is.
