How to Install Mugen Characters

For this tutorial I am using Winmugen and the character will be Ironmugen's Wolfgang Krauser. You can download Wolfgang Krauser via Fanatic Mugen: http://fanaticmugen.free.fr . Goto downloads > characters, then scroll down to Real Bout Special and download Krauser.

Use a file decompresser like Winrar to extract Krauser into Mugen's "chars" folder. Each character should be placed inside their own individual folder. If you download a mugen character that does not have a containing folder, just create one for it yourself.

Now, take a look inside Krauser's folder. Among the file types inside, ".def" is most important at this time. Make sure the folder name matches the character's .def file. Krauser's .def file is "krauser_rbs.def" so his folder should be "krauser_rbs".

The general rule in installing characters for Mugen is no spaces. Neither folder or character .def should have spaces in the name. Go to Mugen's data folder and open select.def with notepad. scroll down till you see "kfm, stages/mybg.def". This is where you add your character information.

Kumg Fu Man(kfm) is installed by default. When fighting him, you will always do so in the Mountainside Temple(stages/mybg.def). You can either delete Kung Fu Man's information, or leave it and add other characters as well. His text is the basic blueprint for adding characters in Mugen.

To add Krauser just type in the name of his folder(krauser_rbs) followed by a comma, and stage in which you want him to fight on. If you don't want to assign a specific stage, just type in random after the comma. The end result would like this: Krauser_rbs, random

After you have installed multiple characters in Mugen, you might want to set the fight order. At the bottom of select.def it states how the order system works. order one is for weaker fighters, order two is for middle tier, and order three are the boss characters.

Seeing as Krasuer was the end game boss for Real Bout: Fatal Fury Special, I put his as order three. All you have to do is add the number behind the stage he is assigned to. The end result would look as follows: Krauser_rbs, random, order=3
