- Chapter 2 - revision 3 - 25 Oct 2001
- 2.1/ Mugen tools
- 2.2/ Other software
Of course, you will need a pen and some pieces of paper. Verify you have enough space on your hard disk for the sprites, the sounds and the software to be installed.
- Airedit: a software to edit comfortably AIR files.
- Sndmaker: a software to create your SND files.
- Example: modified and commented files from Kung Fu Man (KFM) for the beginners (beware, Mugen version 01.01 only!).
- SPR.GIF: this picture will show you the required sprites, as well as the positions for the axes.
- Mugen Character Maker: the very best software to create your own SFF files.
- A painting software. I recommend Paint Shop Pro, you can download a demonstration version on "http://www.jasc.com".
- A sound editor get Cool Edit from Syntrillium Software Corporation, or Sound Forge.
- A text editor don't use the notepad provided with Windows because it's not reliable. Personally, I use EditPlus 2, in my opinion that's the best editor available for Windows. Moreover, it allows to edit hexadecimal, HTML, etc. A demonstration version can be found on "http://www.editplus.com/".
