Suggestions & Requests / Ingame forum browser

« on: October 17, 2012, 10:02:13 PM »

I'm not sure how complicated this would be and if it is overcomplicated i apologize for making this thread, On the otherhand i was thinking of something where you could click a simple button on the main menu and a ingame gui opens up and you can log in and use the forums from there.

Since some players seem to enjoy making adventure mode jokes, How about making a actual adventure mode gamemode, Perhaps maybe even just a simple single level without requiring lots of overcomplicated time consuming work.

Games / Mugen megathread(Recreated and revived)

Mugen

What is mugen?

M.U.G.E.N (also known simply as MUGEN) is a freeware 2D fighting game engine designed by Elecbyte, written in C which originally used the Allegro library. The latest versions of the engine now uses the SDL library.

How do you play mugen?

The engine uses 4 directional keys along with 7 buttons for gameplay (X, Y, Z, A, B, C and Start), in order to accommodate six-button fighters which use three punches, three kicks and a start button.[1] However, characters do not necessarily use all seven buttons, nor need to follow a traditional six- or four-button format.
 

How does gameplay work?

At most, two human players can control characters, with others being controlled by the engine's AI (including Watch Mode, a demo mode where the computer controls all characters). In addition, several gameplay modes are available via the main menu

What are the available modes?

The main mode of play is Arcade mode, where a character fights random characters as in other fighter games or use a coding to decide order. There are also three different kinds of Team modes: Single, Simul, and Turns. A fourth mode, Tag, is listed in the EXE along with two related script controllers, but was never used. In Team mode, either side can use any of the team modes. Single is identical to not having a team, Simul gives that side a computer-controlled partner who fights simultaneously, and Turns uses a different character for each round of play, varying from a set number usually from 2 to 4 different characters in a row. If set, the characters' starting life will be adjusted according to the number of players on each side. If one side has two characters and the other has only one in one of the Team modes, the side with two characters will each have half their respective normal maximum life values. Pre-WinM.U.G.E.N versions of the engine could have this feature adjusted or disabled via the options screen or the config file, but due to the nature of the hack, the option has not yet been reactivated. Team Co-op is similar to Simul, except both human players fight on the same side at the same time. In Survival mode, there is an endless stream of opponents, fighting them either one by one or two in a Simul match. The objective is to beat as many opponents as possible, with the game ending when the player's character or team is defeated. The player can choose to play alone or in Simul or Turns mode, though Single Player mode gives the highest life and life recovered at the end of each round won. Survival mode was the last addition done to the engine. As such, it is not present in any of the DOS versions of M.U.G.E.N.

Screenpacks

What's a screenpack?

Screenpacks (also called motifs) are custom configurations of the graphics and sounds used in the engine's interface (title screen, options screen, character select screen...) for the MUGEN gaming engine.
 
One default screenpack comes already bundled and installed with all versions of MUGEN, though there are plenty more available for download on many forums and creator's websites. A motif typically has the following components:
A replacement for the title screen and associated option menus, also known as the frontend.
A replacement for the select screen and a custom select.def to go with it. Usually, these allow for a very large number of characters to be installed, sometimes in the thousands.
A replacement for the in-game versus screen, containing custom lifebars, combo counter and cut-ins for round starts, knockouts and other items.
The first two segments replace system.def and associated files, while the last part replaces fight.def and associated files.
Thus, the frontend is able to operate independently of the veruss screen, so mixing and matching different versus screen graphics sets and menu graphics sets is possible.

As such, some screenpacks only contain a set of versus screen graphics and sounds. These are nicknamed "Lifebars" due to that being the main thing that they change.

How to install characters?

Use an extractor such as WinRAR, 7zip, or ExtractNow to unzip the character into a new folder.
Open the new folder and look for a .def file looks like newguy.def.
Use a new Explorer window, go to your MUGEN folder and then open the chars folder.
Make a new folder there with the exact same name as the def file you saw earlier e.g. newguy
Copy all the files from your zip folder to the newguy folder.Go to your MUGEN folder and open the data folder in it.
Open select.def using Notepad or Wordpad.
Go down to where you see a line like kfm, stages/kfm.def
Type in a new line underneath it with your character name newguy
Save the file and run MUGEN.

Drama / Mentalface is quite an abusive admin

« on: September 11, 2012, 09:59:52 PM »

So i went on blockland and after a server i was on went down, I decided to visit magnussons roleplay server, Which was quite a mistake shortly afterwards a admin named mentalface starts slapping people over and over again and then teleporting them, Then he starts doing it to some guy building, And shortly afterwards decides it would be fun to slap and tumble over and over again.






I honestly dont know why someone would even give people like this guy admin, Seriously it just leads to situations like this, Anyway this is a example of why people should be careful who they admin.

Suggestions & Requests / Dark roleplay as in garry's mod

« on: August 31, 2012, 12:06:08 AM »

Yes im well aware this would probably end terrible on the otherhand, I think it would be nice to have a balanced system with it in the game, And no i am in no way talking about cityroleplay or any of its variants i just simply think it could be possibly fun to have it in the game.
