GIANT MUGEN [WIP] Xxxlth10


This Mugen project is a simple idea with a VERY COMPLEX REALITY.  The characters are scaled up using the .def localcoord to an accurate scale based on the CVS2 sprite sizes.  Starting with Ryu's sprite from CVS2 assuming he is about 5'9 or 5'10.  I scaled up Kaiju, Giant Robots, Beasts, and Vehicles to accurately portray there real sizes. Stages are scaled up using xscale, and yscale in combination with localcoord.

I am considering the use of IKEMAN to make this more functional if possible.

I will require help to complete this as the project at best is about 20% completed.  I am still learning a lot about coding and I struggle with with mathematics so all the work I have done has really amounted to me playing with values till I least got something functional.

The major struggles of this project are as follows

MUGEN WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR THIS INSANITY!  But I want to do it anyways.

1. Mugen is really not designed to handle heavy work loads of course so if it hits a certain amount of usages the engine will crash. and with scaling things up we have to be aware of these limitations and try not to have giant file sizes for any of the stages or characters.

2. All Giant characters will have to have values adjusted! To get rid of screen shake or minimize it to such a way that your screen is not spazing out.  As well as adjusting Knockback values to prevent enemies from going out in to outer space.  Some of my characters also freeze up and I will definitely require someone with a sharp mind to evaluate if it's just a coding related problem.

3. There is no using regular Portraits when scaling things up giant because there portrait alone will take up most of the screen so we have to use fonts in place of standard 9000,0 9000,1 portraits  So the best solution I came up with is creating fonts for p1 and p2 sides.

4. Arcade mode will need to be set up in such a way as to limit the size of the characters according to there size class which connects directly to there stage size as well, I will list more details bellow.

WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE STILL?

1. Coding Fixes "My Knowledge is very limited but growing"
- Characters Freezing
- Screen Shake either way to intense needs to be toned down or eliminated.
- Knockback values either need toned down or eliminated.


2.  Additional FONTS including but not limited to  "All fonts need duplicate mirrored for p2 side."
- In Fight Victory Names
- Select Screen Character Names
- VS Screen Names
- Win Screen Dialog

3. Additional Stages "My Goal is 10 stages per size Class which I will list bellow"
-Stages must be geared for each characters size class to properly function for each size class

4. Arcade Mode Order select
-needs to be set up in such a way for each varied size class.

THE SIZE CLASSES
R- Regular
B- Big
L- Large
XL- Xtra Large
XXL- Xtra Xtra Large
XXXL- Xtra Xtra Xtra Large

Also lastly R Metal slug characters scaled up but still category R

This is current Roster
GIANT MUGEN [WIP] Mugen020

HOW I CHOSE TO SCALE CHARACTERS
XXXL= Kaiju Based on 90's Godzilla run where Godzilla is 100 meters tall, I also chose to scale the Ultraman character for more matchups
XXL= Power Rangers Canon Information which seemed to vary wildly.
XL= Gundam Canon information which seemed to be pretty uniform.
L= Cyberbots  I used the Jin Satome's Blodia Arm sprite scaled down to CVS2 sprite ratio
B = Primal Rage I tried my best to scale these characters based on the human friends compared to CVS2 Ryu.
R= Mostly Metal slug I used Metal Slug Tank from Marco SVChaos and matched the size the best I could despite the stylistic differences presented.


So that covers all the sizes if you have any questions or comments, or even intrested in becoming involved please let me know with a post or PM.

Thank you to anyone who took the time to read through this post.

Unless I completely put this in the wrong section, the objective was to gauge interest in the community not pay someone for this.  I have commissioned people on this forum to do things however This was the only place that listed "Full game projects" But beyond that this is a pretty massive project and I am not a millionaire, there are parts of this project I still intended on working on my self but the scope of this is way too big for me to devote all of my time to.

sorry if I sound kind of n00by but I have a question after reading about your project^^
It sounds interesting, but I didn't really understand the scale thingee you were talking about very well?

I know about localcoord because i use it with my widescreen mugen screepack so the characters dont look too zoomed in but not the scale things in your game or what they do?

Okay so let me be clear my understanding of coding and how coding works is very limited.  But everything I accomplished was by playing with these values to get the desired result.  This answer is compiled of a variety of posts from another mugen topic about localcoord so I hope this helps you understand.

Localcoord is mostly used to resize characters without having to mess with there normal X & Y scale.
Mugen scaling is width based so the actual distance is mostly accurate to the regular games if you use the nearest local coord possible.  Mugen scaling function doesn't work how you think if your wanting to shrink the characters. You actually have to shrink the character by making the width of the localcoord a larger number. For example I make a low res character that is normally 320,240 but looks large in a 720P Mugen, to a localcoord of 427,240. By making the width larger it shrinks to character to look normal size again without losing any definition.

If it's necessary and people want to help me with this project and need me to make a tutorial about resizing characters and stages in the manner I did it, then I am willing to do that.

Haha i think i get it.
So you resize your chars based on human vs king kong like sizes in the movies.
Interesting lol.
Its a shame that despite all that work, the sprites will still all.look the same because its the same.low res resources in use.despite changing xy scales...
Its hard to find free help for.personal.projects (in my.personal exp) but GL all the same.

my five cents is to be careful how you use localcoord.
it is not meant to be used for scaling characters to get a desired size/scale persay.
it has the priomary use of adjusting the on screen aspect ration of characters depending on your local coordiantes which are only every going to be 4:3 or 16:9 99% of the time in mugen.
So in other words all characters in a compilation should have the same localcoord relative to the game aspect ration and resolution.
like 320,240 for 640x480 and 427,240 for 1280x720.
