slipstream19 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Hi guys.For all you fighting fans, mugen roxx!!!! Mugen is a 2D fighting engine where people make their own characters n stuff. It has existed since late 90Ães and now almoast all fighting game character you can think of, and most cartoon and other agme caracters exist.This in 1 single game!. So we are talking about a 2D fightinggame with over 300 different characters from streetfighter, mortalkombat, to sonic, alien vs predator and super mario bros!this is so awsome, . just found out about it, DL it , played it!!!!! WELL.My really point here is how to get the .exe file running from gameex. 1 Can i setup mugen as an "emulator" or as a "PC game"? 2 How do i setup this thing? (i just need gameex to somehow show the "winmugen" exe file and be able to escape out from mugen using the button config for the controller? or do i have to use joytokey or is there any patch for mugen via gameex?well, anyways. its very awsome. eaven if i cant run it trough gameex (wich i hope i can)peace out.

Jay Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I totally agree. I have listed my setup for gameex below. I have multiple versions of Mugen running on my machine. I have a Mortal Kombat Remix, a Street Fighter Remix, Capcom vs Everyone Remix and so on. But this is the default for Mugen.[Emulator_14]Enabled=TrueDumbyValue=STARTPAGENAME=MugenTITLETEXT=MugenStartPageLogo=emusROMFilter=*.exeRomsInFolders=FalseRomPath=G:\Emulators\MUGENSnapPath=G:\Emulators\MUGEN\snapsTitlePath=G:\Emulators\MUGEN\snapsBoxPath=CartPath=WorkingPath=G:\Emulators\MUGEN\MapKeys=FalseWaitBeforeKeys=SendKeys=ReplaceDash=ReplaceUnder=Capitals=RemoveBrackets=ShowDesktop=TrueDebug=MAPFile=AlsoLaunch=Command=winmugen.exeOLDatZip=LaunchBefore=LaunchAfter=configFile=ExcludedFiles=CustomBackground=PlayMusic=PCGame=TrueDATABASE=GamesIn7Zips=PlayInScreenSaver=False Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Could somebody explain to me how to set MUGEN up? I downloaded a torrent from a site but have no idea where to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I downloaded a torrent from UG (I won't write the URL for legal issues...) that was called "MahnaMahna's Mega Mugen Multipack.torrent". Inside that, after downloading, I have a directory structure like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenp1983 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Its a pain in the ass to setup on your own, because you have to put in config information for each character you want to add. I found a version that was preset up on torrentspy.com by search for mugen. I recommend downloading it. It was around 2 gb's or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebrand_X Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 SOMEONE READ MY MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!I just looked into MUGEN when I saw the Spiderman vs Carnage video on YouTube, and I HAD to have it.So far, it's pretty sweet, but every website I go to find characters is long since 404'd.Does anybody have the Venom and Carnage models from the YouTube videos?

hansolo77 Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 We could get somebody with mad programming skills to write up a quick little app that goes and builds the configs automatically... I wonder why nobody's done this yet? I did a little bit of snooping around, and I think I get the gist of it. It looks like you just gotta put the things in their respective folders, edit the config file and type out the "path/filename" of everything your including. Just write a program that pulls the file list, and adds the lines to the config for you. Shouldn't be that hard..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenp1983 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I have one preset up on dvd, I could probably burn and mail to someone if they really wanted. It has several different games already made, Timoe at byoac sent it to me with my control panel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 If you look at my screenshot I posted, the rar file called "0- Complete Games -0.rar" contains 13 full games, totally taking up 2gb while still compressed. These are nice, but I'd like to tackle building "the ultimate..." you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenp1983 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 The best character I have seen was Liono from Thundercats on one of the versions I had. He had the sword of omens and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if you want some help. It sounds rad! Yeah I think that would be awesome. Now that I've got a job, and Christmas is coming soon, I should be able to get myself a nice big empty hard drive for it. I'm also planning on getting a boat load of more songs for Stepmania, and getting all my Sega CD games loaded onto the drive. Shouldn't be to much work once I get the drive.All in all though, you're right on the money. I love fighting games, and when i saw those torrents I just had to investigate. Some of those videos people made on YouTube are sick! I just gotta have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 I think I just need a basic walkthrough, or simple setup wizard to get things going. I know it's just like everything I start that's new; once you DO it, and the more you do, the easier it gets and then you wonder why it was so hard in the first place. That's how new jobs are, just like setting up GameEx for the first time. You have no clue where to begin, but once you start to figure it out, you can do it in your sleep.

Adultery Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 This emulator is friggin GREAT! I love it! I used the default config someone posted here, but I wanted to add that I found a minor tweak you might want to try.

Took me better part of the day to tweak it though. You might want to look for an 'Ultimate' one instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adultery Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 PCGame=True skips the selection screen when you select the emulator.In this case, it goes to the Start Game/Add To Favorites screen and launches winmugen.exe straight away instead of listing the mugen exe's in the root folder, like winmugen_debug.exeJust takes out the guesswork for people who don't know what to select. The torrent of which you speak looks very complete! Mine came with 300 or so characters but I see that one carries over 800. I can't say for sure that's pre-configured without actually downloading it... Seems to be an .iso? Not sure what that's about - perhaps a DVD?

lingpanda Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Almost done adding chars to the screen pack. I dl a torrent called "Everything Vs Everything". It had alot of double and tripple chars in the selection screen. I took all those out and started fresh. Only have 26 more unique chars to go. Thats alot of chars to choose from.

Adultery Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Amen! I was using that theme too, but what I did was start using Kamek's M.U.G.E.N. Version 4 theme instead. There's 312 spaces for different chars and I've filled all but the bottom two rows of 14. I also modified some Street Fighter Alpha life meters from the DOS version of MUGEN for the theme, and I have over 100 stages set up and ready to roll.This thing is gonna consume me. I can feel it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say for sure that's pre-configured without actually downloading it... Seems to be an .iso? Not sure what that's about - perhaps a DVD?Actually, using the torrent I have downloaded, I extracted all the "complete Games" to their own folders. The DOS games I can't get to work, but the Windowz versions work great. I copied the shortcuts to a /mugen/shortcuts folder and told GameEx to look for the *.lnk files. Properly named of course.. Then when I get my own Mugen running, I'll have it at the top of the list by making the shortcut something like ".M.U.G.E.N." so the first period would put it at the top.I really like watching the street fighter complete game. Especially Dragonclaw. That guy is fucking sweet! (pardon me francais!)Yeah, everybody's all getting into building arcade cabs and stuff. Those of us here who pretty much have the setup process and everything going, we got the time to spend on stuff like this. Mugen is totally awesome, I just wish I knew about it sooner!

headkaze Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Is anyone willing to upload a MUGEN pack pre-configured for use with GameEx with a good bunch of levels and characters? Not sure if we should even be talking about this because the characters are probably copyright artwork or something. It's a grey area, but I will allow it because there are no ROMs (that is unless Tom decides otherwise). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adultery Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 Perhaps I could provide the torrent? It wouldn't be practical to offer a 2 GB download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
