Converting MUGEN 1.0 stages to MUGEN 1.1

[Gamer251]

Well, as the title says it, this is the topic where you can learn how to convert MUGEN 1.0 stages to MUGEN 1.1!

Note that this only works for some stages, because others are not yet capable of the zoom feature in MUGEN 1.1

And this will be updated regularly, too.

So, shall we begin?

1) Open your stage's DEF file.

2) Find [Camera]

3) Put these lines under [Camera]

"zoomout = .6"

"zoomin = 1.5"

4) If there are problems regarding the left, right, bottom, and top parts of the stage, adjust these by messing with the boundleft, boundright, boundhigh, and boundlow features.

Well, that's about it!

There will maybe be some minor problems with the converting, though.

Note by abls1:

Here is a code i came up for

 

kof 13 stages from Sensei Yoda stages

 

http://senseiyoda.mugen-infantry.net/Home/stages-1-0-1

 

I used the same code for all stages included in zip file since they seem to share the same atributes!  I kept the old code in

 

Just in case you do not want to revert. Any thing beter you can come up with please post

 

[camera]

startx = 0

starty = 0

boundleft =  -300 ;-800

boundright = 300 ;800

boundhigh = -140

boundlow = 0

verticalfollow = .2

floortension = 0

tension = 50

overdrawhigh = 0

overdrawlow = 0

cuthigh = 65 ;35

cutlow = 25

zoomout = .5 ;.6

zoomin = 1.1 ;1.5

 

Red indicates what I edited.. Please let me know how this works for you and any improvements please post.

Nice tutorial.

[LightFlare_Da_Realest]

Heh...some good advise. Although I think when Ryon sees this he's gonna have a field day with the thread...

[DartzPie]

There either should be a second tutorail or major editting to this topic, since this only half talk of converting. 640x480 would probably only require camera zoom in and out also converting .sff to 1.1, almost same with 1280x720 except you have to add localcoords and x/y scales

[Okami]

And... editing deltas.

And so it begins...

yeah...that is needed more too.

[Ryon]

I am gonna have a field day with this thread.

 

Updating from 1.0 to 1.1 is not that simple.

 

adding zoom is simple, but coding it properly, requires knowledge of

overdrawhigh overdrawlow cuthigh cutlow

 

because when stages zoom out, it shows more than it was meant to in 1.0. you may end up with parts of the background turning into afterimages because the image is not big enough for it.

 

or as vector said, Delta's.

 

everything needs its delta to set properly to give the proper affect.

another thing...

 

wheres 1.1?

[Gamer251]

Post everything you want here, I'm gonna modify the thread.

Shoulda renamed the thread to adding zoom.

[lyr]

Well, I didn't had a showdown with 1.1 stage coding. But won't the start will be affected by zoom and stuff? Also err I still donno what cutlow and cuthigh.

[Ryon]

it wont.

 

nothing gets affected by zooming, cause localcoord fixes all that.

[abls1]

It would be a good thing to start a thread for converting old stages to 1.1 witn zoom

[Ex✭Cᴀʜᴍ]

I think Dartzpie was making one.

[abls1]

I'm also working on one when i finish i will post Code used & where to download the stage

I'm at school (yes, we're allowed to surf) So no editing yet.

[Gamer251]

Edited the topic. Thanks abls1

[abls1]

working on 2 more

 

abandoned carrousel MSH Juan Carlos

Brazil FF13 By XXshadow

**"cut low" gives me no visible effect so i have a black boarder at the lower part of the stage

 

Will upload them one I'm finished

[Ryon]

Cut low and Cut High

 

work effectively if the stage has extra graphics in those areas.

 

in a stage where you can jump up high and have the camera follow you, its very effective.

 

in a stage where the bottom of the stage is the BOTTOM, you get black.

 

Cutlow + 1.1 stage zoom = PERFECT STAGE.

[abls1]

Here I will post the stages I will release with zoom please comment and if you have a better code please suggest

None has commented about zoom configuration!  so I guess none really has mugen 1.1 or is interested in using so I  will not post more stages for a while!

[Ryon]

no one has posted because... I don't know. But really alot of people dont use 1.1 yet. and alot of people don't want quickly coded stages with zoom, some people want it done correctly.

[Ace-Million]

Can you explain cut low in further detail of its need and use.????
