Alpha Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 We need to completely revamp our Mugen forum. The reason people flock here is because we're also affiliated with MugenGuild. Mugen is related to emulation because in order to rip sprites, etc.. you need to use emulators. If anyone has any ideas to improve this section of 1Emulation, I'm all ears!

Bambi Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 what I'm wondering is... why do we even have a MUGEN thread in the first place? I mean it's a cool app and all, but this is an emulation site, you know, and last I checked this wasn't emulation related and is rather specific subject... and how come people flock here instead of their official forums? I don't understand how this could become so popular ;/ It kind of is and isn't emulation, It emulates a 2d fighting engine but it's not really emulating a specific type (CPS, CPS2,etc....) I've been building a mugen cabinet for a year now so knowing this section is here and people can help me is a good reason to keep it around to help everyone.

kuroioni Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 (edited) what I'm wondering is... why do we even have a MUGEN thread in the first place?

I don't understand how this could become so popular ;/ Funny thing i didnt know was that mugen was classified as a emulator(thats what i heard maybe its not). I just thought it was a 2d fighting program. Edited October 25, 2007 by kuroioni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaper man Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 (edited) it isn't an emulator... it's a 2D fighting game engine built from scratch... it isn't translating opcodes or interpreting DMA reads/writes, or anything like that, therefore it isn't related to emulation really Edited October 25, 2007 by Reaper man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there needs to be some kind of link trading happening. Like all the affiliates 1 emulation has (Mugenguild especially) should have links to here if they don't already. That alone would increase the traffic to here. Probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "scenes" so to speak of emulation and mugen are very closely linked and mostly include people from both. And this site isn't 100% emulation topics anyway. The lounge is all non-emulation stuff and it's still here, and people enjoy it. So in short it is related and has a right to be here. And people like bambi, kuroioni and myself that are already here and interested in mugen shouldn't be forced to go elsewhere to talk about it.

Valodim, owner of MugenGuild, is also an ambassador here, as well as I am an ambassador on MugenGuild. As one can tell, we're good friends.

Like Mugen infantry for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatal Rose Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 I really don't consider MUGEN to be a total fighting game. http://www.fightersgeneration.com/features/mugen.htmlHave to agree with Frankie here, but I ma not be as harsh. I still enjoy MUGEN from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetrueblade Posted October 26, 2007 Author Share Posted October 26, 2007 Geez, this thread has kind of spiraled away from my original idea for starting it. I merely wanted to state that there's little or no movement for the past week or more in this part, and that's all. Somehow it's turned into whether or not you like mugen or whether or not it should be talked about here at all. I'm getting upset with what people are thinking about the very facet of this site that brought me here. I really regret even saying anything. I truly do.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE mugen, and I am happy its helping keep the site active. I am also glad that we have a MUGEN forum and I used to post there form time to time. May start again sometime.
