Your character's sprites are the individual images that make up their animations. They can be created in any image editing software, but there are a few things you should keep in mind when creating them:
* Size: Mugen characters are typically around 32x32 pixels in size. However, you can make your character larger or smaller if you wish.
* Format: Mugen sprites must be in .png format.
* Animation: Each character needs at least 4 animation frames for each move: standing, walking, jumping, and attacking. You can also create additional animation frames for special moves, taunts, and other actions.
Step 2: Create your character's script
The script is a text file that contains all of the information about your character, including their moves, stats, and AI. The script is written in the Mugen scripting language, which is a simple but powerful language that allows you to create complex characters with ease.
For more information on the Mugen scripting language, please refer to the Mugen documentation.
Step 3: Compile your character
Once you have created your character's sprites and script, you can compile your character into a .def file. This file contains all of the information about your character in a single file, which makes it easy to share with others.
To compile your character, open the Mugen Character Maker and select "File > Compile Character". Then, select the .sff file that contains your character's sprites and the .st file that contains your character's script. The Character Maker will then compile your character into a .def file.
Step 4: Test your character
Once you have compiled your character, you can test it in the Mugen game. To do this, open the Mugen game and select "File > Load Character". Then, select the .def file that you created in the previous step. Your character will then be loaded into the game and you can test it out.
Step 5: Share your character
Once you are happy with your character, you can share it with others by uploading it to a file-sharing site or by posting it on a Mugen forum. You can also include your character in a Mugen character pack.
