4808~ characters, many from MUGEN Museum, some from my sporadic decade-long personal archive. Yes. there are some leaks in here too.

[PZT]

I never like to leave a promise unfulfilled, it's better late than never. A lot of this content is a big chunk of Electrocaid's MUGEN Museum, which was sent to a friend of mine for bug-testing years ago. He sent that to me, lost it in an HDD crash, so for a long time it's just been me who's had it. I wouldn't have to upload this myself if Electrocaid would do the proper thing for the community and share the whole Museum with the masses. All he has to do is go to archive.org and just upload the whole thing, and it would be like saving the Library of Alexandria. I respect him immensely, and I do hope he takes initiative and listens to me when I say this, but this content belongs to the people. For a long time, I thought about how to present this content in a way to show off, but I realized it's not about the glory, it's about preservation. I hope you enjoy the content, there's some real lost gems in here. Please don't let this pack fade away, keep distributing it, keep it preserved. You all have a citizen's duty as, now, some of you are even by and large the "old guard" now. You have a responsibility to keep sharing content publicly, to keep it in the hands of those that can appreciate it. To everybody who thinks hiding content, making it "private", and just generally being a stingy douchebag with things people made instead of giving them to the masses is a cool thing; if you know me, I've made it loud and clear what my convictions are on the matter, but for those who don't remember, I'll refresh you.

 

This is literally my tenth goddamn year posting on MUGEN forums. I've seen most of it go around and come around and I've been around longer than a lot of you, so fucking take me seriously on this when I say it's important. Information belongs to the people. Those who seek to restrict people's access to information, for whatever reason, should go fuck themselves. It's anti-art, it's anti-human, it's anti-society, to keep things to yourself out of your own greed, or due to the arbitrary social conditions the community has fostered unto itself. You shouldn't get to decide what gets saved in history, and if you think you should, you're an insufferable douche. Do the right thing.

 

This'll probably be the last real MUGEN thing I do, and it's been a long time coming as I've been sitting on this content for years, but it's time I live up to my end of the bargain and give it to those who can make the most use of it. You know, what a rational human being should do with scarce, endangered content. But enough about me, I hope you enjoy, sincerely. It probably took longer than it should have because I was waiting for data storage to play catch-up. I don't stay gone forever, I can't help always poking my head in, so I won't say this is a final goodbye, but, I'm doing this so I can have this out into the world, off my conscience, a retirement if you will. I will probably post more content one day because I do have stuff that needs backing up, this is just the compressed copy of my master folder. Knowing it's safe through being out in the wild is what I need to be able to dot the Is, cross the Ts, and close the book on this off-and-on decade-long fixation of mine with this stupid, brilliant 17-year-old piece of shit game engine.

 

Well, without further ado. Shout out to Laxxe23, the most pathetic insufferable neckbeard loser I ever unfortunately encountered in this community who probably shoved me into my crazy radical preservationism to begin with out of spite, and, most importantly, to my boys back at The Hidden Elect, I love you guys, your spirit is what made this possible, and you're alive with me. Bang.

[Galvatron]

Woah.....

 

well All respect to you PZT..... I can't really go against how you feel man..

 

Well I have alot space on my PC so I'll see if I can download this..... if possible.. :-P

 

[edit post]

.....It need a 'decryption key' to download the file by the way.... 

Never-mind LOL! XD

[DarkWolf13]

Is this even legit? If so awesome, I might be able to find the char I long lost when my good laptop died.

[SSBKing65✯]

You must have a lot of experience with Mugen, well I downloaded the pack and I thank you, this had a few characters I was trying to find. It's very generous of you to do this, I bid you adieu and good night PZT.

To make it more convenient, i edited PZT's post so that the MEGA link works with single click.

I remember PZT, I came from The Hidden Elect. It is my first forum where i served Zodiac and where I learned the ways of warehousing and sprite stealing LOL

 

Those were the good ol'days where warehousing merited a ban on every forum. I hope you archived Leech in there.

I remember those times too, very vividly. Too bad for them they were on the wrong side of history. I don't recall Leech ever being publicly released, nor do I recall ever receiving it, so no dice. I'd include it if I had it. However, if you remember that, here's an amazing blast from the past you might recognize. I know when I found it again I was losing my shit.

This sounds familiar. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't that the same compilation released over at MFG that had some very tasteless stages including stages made from photos of corpses in a nazi death camp and mass-lynchings of african-americans during the mid-late 1800s?

[Kazagami]

It's some .txt database listing almost all creations ever made for mugen.

 

those stages are separate project by him called electroHR Revival Project.

This pack does not include stages, and those stages were never considered a Museum project to begin with. (speaking in a general sense here) It was an auto-generating program, he didn't pay much attention to the images he was using (if I recall) and you should all get some thicker skin. Oh no, someone used freely available photos to make something I don't like! If you don't like it, don't download it. It's not like anybody is forcing you to have it. People do awful shit that upsets me every day, but I don't cry about it. He's an odd guy, and not a native speaker. Some people just have different standards for what's considered acceptable, the way he sees it he's just preserving what people made, for good and for bad.

 

Electrocaid has saved literally dozens of thousands of creations from being completely lost, and he deserves commendation for that. I honestly don't understand why people get confused and treat him like an unknown, like you, because he's incredibly important. It's almost shameful so little people acknowledge his accomplishments. He's done more for MUGEN than 99% of everybody at Guild, certainly more than all those hipster egotists with tens of thousands of posts, spending literal thousands of hours on updating things for compatibility, backporting them to DOS, meticulously storing and organizing hard-to-find content for the future, running mailing services to disseminate that content to the masses, so on and so forth. I saw how people went all "who???" in the Guild thread and that's really goddamn shameful considering how he's saving your irresponsible asses from yourself. He was even a mod there once but, unlike him, everybody on Guild has the memory of a goldfish, which is exactly why they didn't work to save things like he did, the irresponsible bastards. "Not my problem!" How you hardly recognize him says more about you than him.

 

This is a really spicy opinion here, too; he's more valuable to the community than any regular creator, weird, politically insensitive behavior besides. But no, outrage culture is in vogue, all you people choose to do is focus on when people do something wrong as opposed to when they do something right, and this is why we can't have nice things. Way to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Doing weird insensitive shit doesn't devalue the wealth of good he's done, he's been doing this since like 2003. I hope you have fun when he quits because the lynch mob drove him out and 80% of everything from 1999-2005 is completely lost, because if people dwell on shit like that and choose to disregard that he's the single most important historian in our entire community, that's exactly what's going to happen.

[RicePigeon]

Nobody's trying to drive anyone out of the community. I don't understand why you're getting so defensive but it sounds like you're going way off topic and I don't want future posts in this thread to follow suit.

I'm formally retiring and I'm saying how I feel. It's not off-topic at all, actually. I felt like what you said was an important cue for me to point out just what exactly he's done for us all. If you close this thread because I disagreed with you it'd be really childish. He's the backbone of the community and the reason this big file I uploaded exists. He's an important person and I really dislike how people choose to dwell on something like that instead of respecting and admiring his accomplishments. While people on Guild were infighting over irrelevant nonsense for years and years, he was saving literally everything. If people choose to dwell on his social faux pas to the point it blots out his name in the eyes of others, he'll probably quit, and that would be a huge loss for all of us. That's basically what I meant to say. If I seem awfully confrontational, I apologize, I'm more familiar with 2006 MUGEN bantz than 2016.
