@Ryon I finally fixed the issue of my FF3 not working!! You should take a note on this too, I made this separate comment so you can see it if you didn't see my other message, I have a RTX 4090 GPU and my resolution was set to 3840x2160. I cranked down the resolution since I thought that could be the culprit and I went from 3840x2160 to 1920x1080 IT WORKS!!! So now I am able to use FF3!! Please write this down as a note so you can maybe tell others that this could be the reason to why the Fighter Factory 3 software isn't working.
I'm five years late but whatever, to tell you the truth, as soon as I saw this (5:52) I tried to find an easier way.... now that I tried it, it's kind of satisfying how smoothly idraw creates the filled rectange... and it's less tedious than it looks in video
And 5 years later thank you for commenting! Yes as primitive as idraw is. It's an excellent applications with somethings I don't see on many other software.
I wanted to learn how to make characters for Mortal Kombat game. The explanation is long and your performance is very fast in the explanation. The explanation must be kept calm so that the viewer benefits
Hello, my friend. I am a subscriber to your channel, and your follower of Myogen is good, but you are making a different Myogen from the Mortal Kombat game.
THANK YOU. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. You're like some hidden gem on the internet for this, man have my sub, have my like, have my firstborn child, bloody hell. You don't want to know how long I was struggling to find a way for this shit to work in a way that makes sense. And you're the first one where it does. Tried some tutorials that are older than my beard - oh what a surprise, the colour palette was fucked, when the colour palette wasn't fucked, it was some 'error in cmd Error loading chars/ffs_0/ffs_0.def' or some other bullcrap that was keeping me from testing my animations. NOW, only NOW it works. HOOOWEE. Srsly man thanks
Ok can i use this series for a character im making a character from scratch like a original character of mine cuz im trying to make a fighting game but with my own characters
I can't really help it but look forward for the tuts remake because I really l liked your videos. I hear the big difference in your voice from your OG videos and the new ones. Regardless, keep up the great work.
there is no difference in my voice! Its the same microphone its just shitty surroundings LOL, sometimes the applications took my webcam mic instead of my normal one. I dont know if im going to remake any tutorials, It seems more like a pain than anything else. You know?
Ima make some noob friendly versions of characters to ease fighting game noobs into the experience so they are not overwhelmed when learning to play the game. Just characters with a good variety of moves that arent too hard to do so they can learn how to play the game

@@RyonMugen Would you happen to know the correct resolution to do the sprites at? The last person who did Rosalina for Mugen ended up making her at an improper resolution, which resulted in her being tiny.

You can use a keyboard or a gamepad. Whenever you open up your Mugen go to options via your keyboard then go to controlls and set your controlls and save.

Now when you preview and set it to that specific mugen you should be able control things Whenever you open that mugen it will use those default controls. Thus that should fix it. When i re finish this video ill document more but off the cuff thats what i would tell you to try.
I have listened to the tutorial, and all seems to be fine. It's just whenever I download the older version of Fighter Factory 3 and whenever I launch it, it would just completely be stuck at the loading screen and then it would just not work but the process is still running so I have to close it via Task Manager. Is there any way to make this work? I've set the compatibility of the application and that didn't work, I'm on Windows 11 Professional and stuff, I don't know how to make this work since I really desperately wanted to follow along with the tutorial but it seems like the only thing that works is the new Fighter Factory Studio.
You could use fighter factory studio. I personally just don't like it, it's too much information that I feel isn't needed. And I don't know what to tell you cause I use FF3 on windows 11 and it works fine?
@@RyonMugen Yea I really don't know what happened to my FF3 on my W11 machine here and I guess it just won't work. I have the prerequisites installed and everything. I am so glad you reply to people even 4 years after you made this video! Is there any tutorials I should also be following along for Fighter Factory Studio? Because for me I like to follow exactly 100% of what the instructor tells me what to do. So I followed your case and I got really confused because I tried it and it was totally different from my screen than from your FF3 screen which that would be obvious, since they're both different versions/software. I hope you understand, and as always thanks so much for being kind and caring for my comment!
@@RyonMugen Yeah, but when I downloaded it from "sprites resource", a folder with many images appear and not just one. I'm trying to download to Ex-Kyo for KOF. Help plz
No you don't have to keep it, it's just how I like to work. And I would NOT use MS Paint for saving any image. Your palettes will be screwed up because Paint doesn't have anyway of dealing with palettes.
Hiii Ryon how things going :D , pls i need ur help : the fighter factory studio contains on it's own already the attack animation ( i mean the character movement + the effect with positioning ) right ?So the prob is : When i export the attack animation i get them separated , what i want is just when exporting the attack animation i get both of them with the preservation of the effect position ( x and y ) i hope u understood me
Your gonna have to learn to copy and paste the coding. Unless the animation is attached to the sprites it will not copy together, because it's 2 different animations
i can't test if the sprites of the character is working because of this error: Loading character chars/ff3_0/ff3_0.def... Loading info...Character ff3_0.def failed to load
i'm having a bit of a weird problem with this. whenever I make a background for the character sprites, it makes like 18 different colors of the background where one is the actual background and the other 10+ is some weird outline on the character. how would I go about fixing this?
Are your sprites blurry or have a blurry edge? That causes it to happen. Jpeg not good to use. High color images 24bit images, have transparent backgrounds. When you try to convert those, it will blur the edge. As far as I know.. there is no way to fix that
@@RyonMugen interesting to know! they're not JPEG, they're PNG but they do have transparent backgrounds. do you want me to send you the link to the sprites that I use (they're available on mugen archive)? i've been trying to brute force them to work for an entire day but if it's not able to be fixed I will not try any longer
13:04 every time i try to do that, the error said: Error message: Can't read file in char.cmd Error loading chars/ffs_0/ffs_0.def Error loading p1 how do i fix this
@@RyonMugen so theoretically, I can draw on my ipad, send them to the pc, and just label them in the program. Also when making the frames, would it be possible to create multiple layers of each frame? That way it would be easier to just label everything.
everytime i add a sprite and test the character in-game theres a black thing(bigger if the file dimensions is big) behind my character, anyway to remove this black thing?
@@RyonMugen this is my first time making mugen mods and i'm not from america so i can't understand this index thingy, but can you show me it around the video?
Hey Ryon, question here. Do you have any video on how to create New moves? Bc im doing the first Anakin jus character and I dont have any reference for the Force abilities
Hello, lately I've been interested in creating my own mugen character and well, the point is that I'm interested in creating my own character I already have the idea and everything but I want two tips. First of all: how and with what I make my own sprites And second: I don't want my character to be pixelated, what would you recommend for this? Any response will be appreciated, thanks!
1. If you can draw then your off to a good start if you can't draw then your gonna be in for a world of hurt! 2. All characters are pixelated. If your character has smooth edges, mugen won't allow you to give them a palettes. Mugen is a old engine and for best support using 256 indexed images. Also your alternative would very drawing them at a higher resolution.
@@RyonMugen Thanks for the answer, by the way, which one of these two is more recommended for making each sprite Paint or Photoshop? Also, is Pixlr also a good option or is it NOT recommended?
@@carp8683 I don't know what pixlr is, either option is good. But I have a guy who is drawing sprites and zooming in and out has been messing him up, quality has been all kinds of messed up because of the artists.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but It's not loading the sprites or the cns or the cnd files I fix one thing the next error just shows up what do I do?
say bro i wanna recreate injustice but make it as a mortal kombat project mugen version way usin mortal kombat characters palettes do u gotta video to where i can see how to make em
not at all. MKP is a very technical thing its hard to replicate it. Do you know how to code anything? How about the sprites? palettes will be super messy but thats the nature of MK. My tutorials will teach you the basics of coding so you have an idea. As for going Mortal Kombat... maybe?
You need to learn the basics first. My guide is that basics. I don't do tutorials on making other creators style. And pots style you can literally play any of his characters and redo the same things. It's just the effects and internal counter and super system that's tricky.
Whenever i try to test my character in fighter factory 3 it would say "You need to configure a M.U.G.E.N. first. Do it in the tools/options." I tried but i don't know what to do. Can someone please help me?
On the top tab, select TOOLS, then pick OPTIONS, on the right side of that window you will see the word "Add" Click that, Locate your mugen.exe file usually within the mugen folder. You can name it whatever you want to name it. Click OK when your done. Then Apply, then Close, and its good to go.
@@RyonMugen Thank you, now i have it, but whenever i try loading him into M.U.G.E.N. I get an error saying Error loading chars, Error loading p1 and could not open files. Is there a way to fix that?
Fighter Factory 3 Classic is to outdated. Ultimate is a error-filled nightmare. Studio as nice as it is, tends to crash for no reason sometimes, AND the character log will nag you for none issue codes, but it's something that's needs to get fixed. It doesn't.
This is just epic. Thank you for your experience and hard work! I'm beginning this journey of character creation and it's very exciting! I was wondering, do you work as an software developer too?
Your welcome! I'm glad to be able to help you. No I'm not a software developer, I would love to be one. Im just a man who loves mugen. I hate math but mugen coding is simple enough for me to make stuff. Im currently working on part 2 of this video.
I got some understanding on the Virtual Tek Fighter Factory application. What is the index indicate? I know the group number indicate the moves and damage.
wrong on both accounts. Group and Index are for reference to the sprite. Stand sprite has multiple frames of animation, How does mugen know where the sprites are? by grouping and indexing. Your character could have a stance with 10 frames, so you would have group 0, index 0 to 9 (take 1 away because of 0) but you don't want to display all 10 then make your animation display group 0 index 0 - 4 . Its a reference and call point of sorts.
Nice, I'm actually starting a whole custom VTuber MUGEN Roster and after watching the video I did run into an issue and some questions, I'd join your Discord server but the link in the description is broken. Anyhow for the questions just for clarification purposes and I need to prepare a project-profile of sorts for the art guy whos creating the sprites, 1: Is there a sepefic resolution size the sprite sheet/mast sprite sheet need to be? 2: Even though at 4:35 you rip the sprites at a individual level does it have to be displayed like that when importing into MUGEN? I know in the wip folder for Kung Fu Man it doesn't have to be but still - a question I need to be sure of. 3: I did try to do a test sprite in a similar method to your other video on how to index the colors, when I imported my test sprites the cyan/blue background got imported in and when the Axis were Zero'ed out the sprite was way off screen. This is of course after I crop to floor access. 4: The most annoying of them all, For some odd reason, when I go to run MUGEN it gives me this weird error: (Title) S-Size v1.39 then: c/user/name/location/ikemen-plus-master/ff3_0(-1): Japanese Characters Number 4 most off all IM concerned about as I won't be able to test anything I do in engine. I even tried to load up KFM which I know works and I Still get it.
1. No, there is no specific resolution, anything works, it's mostly about keeping the character' sprite sizes consistent between frames. Also this is a long answer, add me on discord "ryeyon"
2. Each sprite should be single of what it is. You can't import a sheet and then cut from within the app. All sprites need to be cut up individually before importing.
Hey, man, been a while. Still at it with the whole sprite creation thing, but now I have the time to invest in learning a more fundamental way about it. I've tried to do it on my own, but I guess I don't have the patience to try to learn how to keep lines and pixels from moving all over the place from frame to frame, so now I'm here trying to get your help. everyone keeps telling me to do a lot of copying a pasting, but my character's movements can be irregular or very different from the last frame, so I'm wondering how to work with that. Hopefully your channel can help with that.
I decided to do a testrun and use Sonic. When I hit Ctrl+M to test him out in MUGEN, his hitboxes are there, but I can't get him to move or jump. If I get another character to shove him, it's like he's in a constant state of falling, because the dust particles appear as his feet drag across the floor. Any ideas?
Did you use Kung Fu Man as a base? Do you have a common1.cns file? Basically you don't have a proper state 0 (stand) so you have no control, and the game makes dust cause your in a error state

You can use a keyboard or a gamepad.
Whenever you open up your Mugen go to options via your keyboard
then go to controlls and set your controlls and save.
Then press escape to go back after you have saved.
If it worked on options you should be moving the curour fine.
Now when you preview and set it to that specific mugen you should be able control things
Whenever you open that mugen it will use those default controls.
Thus that should fix it.
When i re finish this video ill document more but off the cuff thats what i would tell you to try.
bro is fighter factory 3 safe to download?
Yes
On the website there are two links ( online installer and then the current version ) are they both the same thing and therefore both safe?
i cant make the background transparent ;(
I have listened to the tutorial, and all seems to be fine. It's just whenever I download the older version of Fighter Factory 3 and whenever I launch it, it would just completely be stuck at the loading screen and then it would just not work but the process is still running so I have to close it via Task Manager.
Is there any way to make this work? I've set the compatibility of the application and that didn't work, I'm on Windows 11 Professional and stuff, I don't know how to make this work since I really desperately wanted to follow along with the tutorial but it seems like the only thing that works is the new Fighter Factory Studio.
You could use fighter factory studio. I personally just don't like it, it's too much information that I feel isn't needed.
And I don't know what to tell you cause I use FF3 on windows 11 and it works fine?
@@RyonMugen Yea I really don't know what happened to my FF3 on my W11 machine here and I guess it just won't work. I have the prerequisites installed and everything. I am so glad you reply to people even 4 years after you made this video! Is there any tutorials I should also be following along for Fighter Factory Studio?
Because for me I like to follow exactly 100% of what the instructor tells me what to do. So I followed your case and I got really confused because I tried it and it was totally different from my screen than from your FF3 screen which that would be obvious, since they're both different versions/software.
I hope you understand, and as always thanks so much for being kind and caring for my comment!
How do I get the images of the sprites in a single image? 1:14 I mean that file you have that is called 31020
you download them from sprite database or spriters resource
@@RyonMugen Yeah, but when I downloaded it from "sprites resource", a folder with many images appear and not just one.
I'm trying to download to Ex-Kyo for KOF.
Help plz
Oh sorry sorry haha
I just noticed that in the same way we should have the images. Sorry bro xd
5:48
How do you make all of those sprite variations without going off model? I’m hoping to make mugen characters.
what kind of variations?
Do you need to keep the whole blue sheet with the one sprite? Or can you just crop the sprites one by one in MS Paint and it works the same?
No you don't have to keep it, it's just how I like to work.
And I would NOT use MS Paint for saving any image. Your palettes will be screwed up because Paint doesn't have anyway of dealing with palettes.
Hiii Ryon how things going :D , pls i need ur help : the fighter factory studio contains on it's own already the attack animation ( i mean the character movement + the effect with positioning ) right ?So the prob is : When i export the attack animation i get them separated , what i want is just when exporting the attack animation i get both of them with the preservation of the effect position ( x and y ) i hope u understood me
Your gonna have to learn to copy and paste the coding.
Unless the animation is attached to the sprites it will not copy together, because it's 2 different animations
Bless your existence you smart boi also how do I put ymy character into the actual mugen because the files are there yet it doesn't show up
If this goes well, then I can just make Pepsiman from Rivals of Aether as a Ronald McDonald clone! All is well that ends well?
i can't test if the sprites of the character is working because of this error: Loading character chars/ff3_0/ff3_0.def...
Loading info...Character ff3_0.def failed to load
Make sure the mugen you set up FF with is a valid location
yes it is, and i tried so much things and it didn't worked
i'm having a bit of a weird problem with this. whenever I make a background for the character sprites, it makes like 18 different colors of the background where one is the actual background and the other 10+ is some weird outline on the character. how would I go about fixing this?
Are your sprites blurry or have a blurry edge? That causes it to happen. Jpeg not good to use.
High color images 24bit images, have transparent backgrounds. When you try to convert those, it will blur the edge.
As far as I know.. there is no way to fix that
@@RyonMugen interesting to know! they're not JPEG, they're PNG but they do have transparent backgrounds. do you want me to send you the link to the sprites that I use (they're available on mugen archive)? i've been trying to brute force them to work for an entire day but if it's not able to be fixed I will not try any longer
13:04 every time i try to do that, the error said:
Error message: Can't read file in char.cmd
Error loading chars/ffs_0/ffs_0.def
Error loading p1
how do i fix this
Is your .def file correct? And everything named appropriately?
@@RyonMugen yes
strange, would you be able to send me this character so i can test it myself
?
@@RyonMugen yes
oh, wait, i think i solved it
i think i found the perfect tutorial on helping me create a mugen character
yess yess, watch the videos yesss
Can you use other art programs or do you have to use gimp?
Whatever you wanna use, as long as it's indexed
@@RyonMugen so theoretically, I can draw on my ipad, send them to the pc, and just label them in the program.
Also when making the frames, would it be possible to create multiple layers of each frame? That way it would be easier to just label everything.
everytime i add a sprite and test the character in-game theres a black thing(bigger if the file dimensions is big) behind my character, anyway to remove this black thing?
Did you index them correctly?
@@RyonMugen 103x188
@@akirah5021 I said index, did you convert the image correctly to 256 color?
@@RyonMugen this is my first time making mugen mods and i'm not from america so i can't understand this index thingy, but can you show me it around the video?
@@akirah5021 ua-cam.com/video/2TSnFtvdcj0/v-deo.html
I made video on it
OMG that's Ray from Fighter's History.
A man of culture I see
Is there a way to edit a character's face/head to a picture of my choosing?
do you mean the portrait icons of the character or the character itself that your fighting with?
@@RyonMugen both actually
Hey Ryon, question here. Do you have any video on how to create New moves? Bc im doing the first Anakin jus character and I dont have any reference for the Force abilities
It's the same as making any moves, you just make it?
how do I emulate mugen Into fighter factory, it doesn’t work
You have to go to options and add it
@@RyonMugen Great it worked, it’s crazy how you still help people after along time, thank you. 🙏
@@nahbro3965 someone else said the same thing. You're welcome!
when i replace any kfm sprite it causes all of the attacks to loop forever
Oh that's a wierd one? Do you have a video of it???
@@RyonMugen i fixed it somehow
Can you help me? When i add my character Image in the sprites (.bpm) it says 0 pixel and nothing shows up
I don't know what .bpm is, unless you mean .bmp . Regardless I do not recommend that filetype.
I recommend .png files, It is alot easier to work with.
Hello, lately I've been interested in creating my own mugen character and well, the point is that I'm interested in creating my own character I already have the idea and everything but I want two tips.
First of all: how and with what I make my own sprites
And second: I don't want my character to be pixelated, what would you recommend for this?
Any response will be appreciated, thanks!
1. If you can draw then your off to a good start if you can't draw then your gonna be in for a world of hurt!
2. All characters are pixelated. If your character has smooth edges, mugen won't allow you to give them a palettes. Mugen is a old engine and for best support using 256 indexed images.
Also your alternative would very drawing them at a higher resolution.
@@RyonMugen Thanks for the answer, by the way, which one of these two is more recommended for making each sprite Paint or Photoshop? Also, is Pixlr also a good option or is it NOT recommended?
@@carp8683 I don't know what pixlr is, either option is good.
But I have a guy who is drawing sprites and zooming in and out has been messing him up, quality has been all kinds of messed up because of the artists.
@@RyonMugen Pixlr is a online editor not that known but some people recommend it tho, you should check it out. But i'm pretty sure its a fine option.
i really love your tutorials im creating another goofy but probably good character
all that thanks to you! (btw you had my respect long time ago)
nevermind i have met a probleme i have never seen before it says died parsing blocking but its literally good and also its in [state 1351, -1]
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but It's not loading the sprites or the cns or the cnd files I fix one thing the next error just shows up what do I do?
did you open up the .def file? that opens everything.
U have got really cool playlist !
@@hardikroy5548 thank you! I hope it helps
I’m very knew to gimp so can you explain how you got rid of the text and big images
I actually don't use gimp at all, and forced myself to use it for this video lol, I can't help sorry
Question, do I need gimp or can I use other pixel art/drawing applications?
Anything really, just do not use any version of Microsoft Paint.
Paint does not allow you to set color mode or index to 256 color.
@@RyonMugenAlrighty, thanks for the tip!
How did you configure your mugen to run from fighter factory. It doesnt't work for me
Zaid Montes Me neither!
Great Stuff brother, I really appreciate your skills.
please help. when i import the sprites, it doesnt just "kind of appear". it still shows 0 palettes. please help.
Did you remove all of kfm palettes
@@RyonMugen yup
also i must add the sprites do have the teal background
say bro i wanna recreate injustice but make it as a mortal kombat project mugen version way usin mortal kombat characters palettes do u gotta video to where i can see how to make em
not at all. MKP is a very technical thing its hard to replicate it. Do you know how to code anything? How about the sprites? palettes will be super messy but thats the nature of MK.
My tutorials will teach you the basics of coding so you have an idea. As for going Mortal Kombat... maybe?
brother could you please make a tutorial how to make pots style characters if so do you know how to make one yourself ?
You need to learn the basics first. My guide is that basics.
I don't do tutorials on making other creators style. And pots style you can literally play any of his characters and redo the same things.
It's just the effects and internal counter and super system that's tricky.
@@RyonMugen did you ever try to make a pots style character yet?
hello, i just wanna ask something, where can i find the kfm folder??
Kfm character folder should come with Mugen if you download a fresh copy.
So should i need to download M.U.G.E.N?
@@chrunika ya
Hello brother, can i make a mugen char but the sprite is not mine? And after i release it i upload it on youtube?
Yes, generally as long as you credit the people who made it, it's okay.
@@RyonMugen okay thanks, brother, what is statedef number for guarding while walk?
@@RyonMugen and please accept my friend request on discord👍👍
Ok perfect now i can create the perfect caracter the egg dog
You sir, are a mad lad. And I am looking forward to your divine creation in action.
Whenever i try to test my character in fighter factory 3 it would say "You need to configure a M.U.G.E.N. first. Do it in the tools/options." I tried but i don't know what to do. Can someone please help me?
On the top tab, select TOOLS,
then pick OPTIONS,
on the right side of that window you will see the word "Add" Click that,
Locate your mugen.exe file usually within the mugen folder.
You can name it whatever you want to name it.
Click OK when your done.
Then Apply, then Close, and its good to go.
@@RyonMugen Thank you, now i have it, but whenever i try loading him into M.U.G.E.N. I get an error saying Error loading chars, Error loading p1 and could not open files. Is there a way to fix that?
what version of fighter factory do you recommend
Fighter Factory 3
Classic is to outdated.
Ultimate is a error-filled nightmare.
Studio as nice as it is, tends to crash for no reason sometimes, AND the character log will nag you for none issue codes, but it's something that's needs to get fixed. It doesn't.
Thx im trying to make zunesha from one piece
The Elephant!?
@@RyonMugen yea
10:28 I keep on getting a warning message saying that the sprite 0,0#1 isn't color indexed. Did I forget something or do something wrong?
Yes you never indexed your sprite. I have a tutorial on just indexing, in case you missed a step here.
This is just epic. Thank you for your experience and hard work! I'm beginning this journey of character creation and it's very exciting! I was wondering, do you work as an software developer too?
Your welcome! I'm glad to be able to help you. No I'm not a software developer, I would love to be one. Im just a man who loves mugen. I hate math but mugen coding is simple enough for me to make stuff. Im currently working on part 2 of this video.
Could this work with a origional character? Like your ownkl just curious
Yes of course
I got some understanding on the Virtual Tek Fighter Factory application. What is the index indicate? I know the group number indicate the moves and damage.
wrong on both accounts. Group and Index are for reference to the sprite. Stand sprite has multiple frames of animation, How does mugen know where the sprites are? by grouping and indexing. Your character could have a stance with 10 frames, so you would have group 0, index 0 to 9 (take 1 away because of 0) but you don't want to display all 10 then make your animation display group 0 index 0 - 4 .
Its a reference and call point of sorts.
Nice, I'm actually starting a whole custom VTuber MUGEN Roster and after watching the video I did run into an issue and some questions, I'd join your Discord server but the link in the description is broken.
Anyhow for the questions just for clarification purposes and I need to prepare a project-profile of sorts for the art guy whos creating the sprites,
1: Is there a sepefic resolution size the sprite sheet/mast sprite sheet need to be?
2: Even though at 4:35 you rip the sprites at a individual level does it have to be displayed like that when importing into MUGEN? I know in the wip folder for Kung Fu Man it doesn't have to be but still - a question I need to be sure of.
3: I did try to do a test sprite in a similar method to your other video on how to index the colors, when I imported my test sprites the cyan/blue background got imported in and when the Axis were Zero'ed out the sprite was way off screen. This is of course after I crop to floor access.
4: The most annoying of them all, For some odd reason, when I go to run MUGEN it gives me this weird error: (Title) S-Size v1.39 then: c/user/name/location/ikemen-plus-master/ff3_0(-1): Japanese Characters
Number 4 most off all IM concerned about as I won't be able to test anything I do in engine. I even tried to load up KFM which I know works and I Still get it.
1. No, there is no specific resolution, anything works, it's mostly about keeping the character' sprite sizes consistent between frames.
Also this is a long answer, add me on discord "ryeyon"
2. Each sprite should be single of what it is.
You can't import a sheet and then cut from within the app.
All sprites need to be cut up individually before importing.
3. You may have missed a pixel which can throw the crop way off
4. Your using Ikemen Plus? I don't know what differences it has but I use Ikemen Go. It's far more stable
It said it had Online Capabilities and I was gonna do a tournament@@RyonMugen
Hey, man, been a while. Still at it with the whole sprite creation thing, but now I have the time to invest in learning a more fundamental way about it. I've tried to do it on my own, but I guess I don't have the patience to try to learn how to keep lines and pixels from moving all over the place from frame to frame, so now I'm here trying to get your help. everyone keeps telling me to do a lot of copying a pasting, but my character's movements can be irregular or very different from the last frame, so I'm wondering how to work with that. Hopefully your channel can help with that.
Ok well how do you resize the character. my character is too big
How big we talking?
@@RyonMugen like really big
@@RyonMugen I want it to be small instead of big
in mugen u go to the characters cns file and resize his Y and X
@@humanbeing5351 what about the custom sprites
I decided to do a testrun and use Sonic.
When I hit Ctrl+M to test him out in MUGEN,
his hitboxes are there, but I can't get him to move or jump.
If I get another character to shove him,
it's like he's in a constant state of falling,
because the dust particles appear as his feet drag across the floor.
Any ideas?
Did you use Kung Fu Man as a base?
Do you have a common1.cns file?
Basically you don't have a proper state 0 (stand) so you have no control, and the game makes dust cause your in a error state
