How exactly does it work? What programming language(s) would you need to know to work with it? What all can you do with it? |
First you have to download the engine.
Since I think you have a Windows you may want to find WinMugen, and since this is not the MUGEN Primary Computer I'll just say to look up "Random Select", Look for Randomselect.ixcell.com, or something like that :/
The Programming language is basic, as in, TO PUT CHARACTERS IN JUST PUT THE NAME OF THE CHARACTER'S FOLDER IN A DOCUMENT THAT SAYS SELECT.DEF O_O. Basically, you'll know what something is with Fighter Factory and some common sense of what something is is you look hard enough at it.
Basically, you can put anything with sprites in it, the NUMBER of Sprites going from 1 to 1465 (or more!). If you're good enough, you can make your own Sprites to put in. You can even put in your own Stages, Lifebars, Screenpack (Which is basically everything else) and the sounds. As well, as the other stuff like changing "10 hits" to "10 pimpslaps"
All you need is lots of space on your computer, and lots of characters (trust me, I'd think of it as unusual if you found a virus looking for characters so those Foreign sites are fine). As well as lots of Stages and a Screenpack to hold them All.
That's about it, other than you may want to look for a site to keep yourself updated.
