Welcome to the community JerzeyGameboy, make yourself at home. Keep in mind, as with any community, there are bad apples and drama, but don't mind it. Just sit back, relax, play some games, tell us how those games are going, and have fun.
 

Alternatively, if you just google "Mugen 18+" you can download full games with a mix of all sorts of characters and then just combine them all into one huge screenpack.

Try watching a few tutorials, that's usually what I do.

QUICK VS allows you to do matches between characters by simply putting in their name.
RANDOM-AI-BATTLES is the same thing, but with random characters, and I think it might allow for picking characters as well.
DANZEY'S TOURNAMENT is more or less a massive screenpack/toolkit that you put your MUGEN into or put your characters into, then use it to run the matches and test them, that sort of thing.
 
 
Other than that, I don't know much else you can do for testing characters.

You place them in the same folder as the MUGEN exe file.
 
And no, you don't need all of them, just pick the one that works best for you, put all your characters into your character folder (with the proper folder name and .def name matching) and it should run its course without you needing to configure much.

People use special programs to run MUGEN with too many characters, because MUGEN itself literally cannot handle that many. So you'll have to look up assist tools for MUGEN to see different ways to run excessive amounts of characters. The first thing you should try to find is something called "Quick VS" and "Mugen Watcher" / "Random-AI-Battles", that is really your best bet. You can also use things like DANZEY'S TOURNAMENT thing, but I don't know much about it, so you'll have to ask him about how it works.

Congrats and much respect to you all, I know you'll make Ryon and other members very proud.

IMPORTANT NOTE!
吳承曇 / q2951415 has decided to stop publishing their current and future releases, due to MugenArchive warehousing said works without their consent. Out of respect to the author, i WILL NOT be providing mirror links to these creations until i'm granted the right to do so. Here's a full list of characters and stages that 吳承曇's made / is making for reference.
HELP WANTED!
Know of any Metal Slug related MUGEN contents that the collection doesn't have? Please be my guest and post them up in the comments.

Hell yeah, the queen of thighs

Yep, already gonna add this to my roster.

An edit by BorderOfLife... must be worth a download, haven't had any bad experience with BorderOfLife's characters yet.

I mean, it really depends on your ability to tolerate flaws. If you've been spoonfed in MUGEN this entire time with outstanding creators like OHMSBY, Gui0007, Mr. Giang, PotS, and others of a similar nature... you'll have a hard time accepting to even being willing to accept any creators like Chuchoryu, Armin_Luf, or Joey Faust, as these people are part of that "undesirable" quality. Its the flaws in the creations that make people go "EWWW, it isn't perfect the way I want it!".
 
There are a lot of "undesirable" creators, but I look at it this way... its like Real Games vs Bootleg Games. Bootleg games have a certain quality of content that only some people can truly appreciate, despite them being undesirable. You have to look at it with a level of curiosity that says "hey, this isn't what I wanted, but I do want to see what it is about". When you can do that, you'll realize that even some "bad" creations, really aren't bad, and much of the upset is coming from people who are so used to being fed from a silver spoon (being given characters with such high quality), that they can't appreciate something for what it is, rather than what it isn't.
 
The best way to look at it is this... watch a YouTube video on the game The Beginner's Guide, its a dialogue based informational kind of game where the creator of it tells a (fake) story about him knowing someone who made all sorts of bizarre and unwanted games, and his ability to appreciate these games for what they are, rather than criticize them from what they are not. That's kind of the logic you need to have when looking at characters. Like yeah, should a character's quality be improved? Of course. But should creators be bashed for being terrible at what they do? Nah. The job of the higher-ups and the skilled is to help, to give people the motivation and confidence to actually do something better, to do something more. But if all you do is tell these people "your work is shit! nobody likes it! stop what you're doing!" and spread that mentality to others because of your ability to influence, it doesn't make things better.

Ah, I see. Well... if this was real, I'll be honest, I would be willing to pay that amount (despite honestly not wanting to do that) for a few characters. I mean, especially if I could get a source accurate creation of something, although it definitely wouldn't be in the styles mention, I prefer more custom stuff.

$350 for a base character? Really... like... I get making characters is challenging, but I didn't think it was that challenging. Like, I suppose if you're like... requesting original sprites and such, then yeah, that would make sense, but let's say you just want someone to port a character over... then what? I dunno. I like the idea of being able to pay people to make characters playable in MUGEN, but if the cost is this much, then I'd rather them just not exist. I mean hell, I'm even okay with people just doing spriteswaps, so long as the spriteswaps actually look good.

Real talk, I fucking love this collection. So much creativity, weirdness, and uniqueness to it.

Better to take the easy way out then the other way around, lol
 
seriously tho, what did you expect? That I just randomly rehost them on Mediafire? Come on, ya know better then that.
 
Although, I can add alternate links to the characters (and character packs) if necessary.

welp, might as well download.

ok guys i must say thanks for helping me with my issue, i really aprecciate it, and thanks for replying i guess 🙂 🙂 🙂
