I just switched to 1.0 and so far its handling my works and crazy coding very well.
Still My current wip, Strider will have winmugen style coding because I know everyone hasn't updated yet and I would like for my character to benefit both winmugen and 1.0 users.
So this made me as the question, who uses what and why if I may ask.
BTW this thread is not to promote flames or forcing opinions on others. I am just curous to know and for my future works, this will better help me to decide if I will continue to support both or stick with one engine.
-
I use Winmugen cuz I just do...besides 1.0 is too much for my comp for some reason...
-
do you run it at standard res? the same res as winmugen?
If not give it a try.
But still I'm not forcing you to try it.
The thing I fear is users who enjoy what I make will miss out if i go completely 1.0 but so far using standard winmugen coding everything is working fine, character wise.
But my interactive stages, they will not work, I am aware of the new stage id trigger and I have yer to experiment with it. I hope its just a matter of replacing one or two triggers but still it's in the air.
Anyway I am experimenting with both. I havent made the decision to go strictly one engine yet.
-
My main is WM but I have a 1.0, and as soon as it is out of RC, I am switching permanently. It has some nice stuff, and all it needs is to fix the bugs, and add Hi-Res support, and there won't be much need for WM anymore.
BTW, with each new RC it takes less memory, because they are working on bringing down the memory usage.

I can honestly say that alot of the bugs are fixed. and as far as hi res support, it supported it since the very first rc.
hi res title, select, vs, etc. screens. If that engine can support my kind of works then its suitable and to me it feels better than winmugen.
I don't like the wide-screen feature. alot of works looks really ugly with that feature at use, I stayed and the standard 640x480 res.
-
That is what I meant by Hi-Res. I only went back to WM because of my VS screen.
-
I still dont understand.
Winmugen only supports hi res select screens.
1.0 supports everything in high res.
-
I wanted to switch. But I simply couldn't find a screen pack I like.
Heck, I don't even use plus cause of how attached to broken mugen I am. (can anyone reccomend one?)
-
I use whatever one came with the IMT Blue Screenpack. :-??
-
I switch to the R.C Mugen because they finally fixed the music crash issue where in Winmugen I kept getting that, but I play the standard 640x480 res.

I run it on standard Res and it works fine for me, running High Res sometimes lags, so I dont use Plus, Hi-Res or nothin like that, only standard winmugen.
Though if you are going for full 1.0, I would suggest you make a winmugen and 1.0 version. It shouldn't be that hard...i think because I've not used 1.0 in a while so I don't know anything about it.
-
will all the characters and stages still play that were on winmugen?
-
SyN: Really? When I tried using IMT blue the select screen was giant.

When I used it, yes, they did. (Hell, even KONG's charecters worked on it.)
Also, there this guide: http://elecbyte.com/wiki/index.php/Updating_to_1.0 (http://elecbyte.com/wiki/index.php/Updating_to_1.0)
I still want to know what screenpacks I can run on the thing. Do Mugen plus ones work?
-

there is a line called local cords for screenpacks. You just have to adjust it to 640x480.

Just to clear this up again, this thread was meant for me, and others, to see who all actually use 1.0.
I wanted to see how my works handles in it and I was impressed and there are noticeable fixes that are not present in the winmugen build.
But still whatever mugen you are comfortable with, continue to use that.
I am not forcing anyone to switch.
-
D'oh! Had I known that I wouln't have switched! It is a great thing, but it can be hard to change sometimes.
-
Why not add a poll, Syn?
I haven't switched over yet. New features look cool but I'm waiting for 99% compatibility with old chars and stages, which may or may not happen. :(|)
-
Nah no poll needed, the thread is serving its purpose by itself and besides I rather that ppl post then just some random guy voting and not posting at all.
-
Well you already know I still use WinMugen. But I'm considering moving over to soon. Testing 1.1 has convinced me quite a bit, but I won't be satisfied until they support high resolution select screens and fix a few other issues. I put too much work into making my select screen high resolution to just downgrade.
-
its freakin odd for me now (well i havent tried again in a hot minute though). I cant get 1.0 to even start on my pc like before :(|)
it crashes with an instant error just like UFF...even though FFU is crap though. But neither will work on my pc like before.
maybe ill try 1.0 again n see what happens
-
I still use WinMugen, because I just don't see a reseason to switch at all to 1.0. Is there anything special about it that is making more people switch over?

i mean if u want the whole hi res thing happening and less errors and more bugs fixed i guess its a cool move.
My winmugen ive been using for ages is a walking frankenstein. i got different parts and plug ins from 2006 that people done tweaked or made better. so mines rarely crashes. its just not in Pretty Hi res.
-
I tried the new Mugen at about RC7. It was nice and all but I just didn't have a reason to switch. Then some screenpacks came out, HLoaders' 640x480 screenpack.... and I switched.
Every stage (hi-res) that I've tried works great, same goes for characters. However, I do agree with you, I don't like widescreen. The characters look ugly and the lifebars appear too low. The fact that low-res screenpacks work is also a plus, I get to keep my old ones.
While my pc may be 4 years old, it seems to handle every-res perfectly. Plus, no crashes is always a good thing.
-
I'm still on Winmugen i will try 1.0 soon though.
-
I use RC7+EXAPLHA and RC8
-
Still using Winmugen+ over here. I've done enough tweaking and such to my setup over the years that crashes are fairly rare, leaving me without too much reason to switch over just yet. (For anyone that cares, I'm actually running at 800x600 resolution, since, for whatever reason, that's the only setting I've found that displays correctly in fullscreen on the HDTV I'm using as a monitor).
I've been thinking about setting up a separate 1.0 build since there seems to be more releases showing up just for the new Mugen, but like many people I'm holding out for a non-beta version before making a full switch. I just haven't seen enough exclusive 1.0 stuff released yet to make me feel that it's worth my time.
-
I have both and still mostly use winmugen over the RC versions also I noticed weird glitches when running my wip strider character in 1.0 that dont happen in winmugen.
-
RC8 and RC7+EXAPLHA
-
I play mugen 1.0 because some mugen creators make characters that don't work in old mugen. Many old mugen characters work in mugen 1.0. One of great things about mugen 1.0 is music doesn't cause error much. ;D
I don't know why, but I feel (or I hope) like Elecbyte is going to add additional stuffs (e.g., online game, selecting bosses for each characters) in the future, and I'm trying to stick with it in case if the update happens... :|
-
1.0 rc6 is what i use now since it came out, fine, no problems, normal resolution like winmugen. Very few chars were non-compatible.
-
I switched over completely.All hi-res screen packs work but need adjustments.Broken mugen is the only lo-res screen pack that doesn't work.It crashes mugen 1.0.

Yeah I read and Experienced that. Anyone figure out why that happens yet?
-
I just group my mugen games.

Well,I think it has something to do with broken's mugen sff. Mugen 1.0 has layering issues.

If 1.0 goes all the way mb I'll switch, but for now ... :)
-
I am a 100% 1.0 user now. While what I'm working on in the realm of characters is basically Winmugen in terms of coding, I use 1.0 as there is full backwards compatibility for characters, stages, and (If done right) screenpacks. Also, 1.0 is so much more stable than Winmugen, it surprises me that there are still so many people using the always crashing hack called Winmugen.
-
Is it was a way to move my winmugen screenpack and characters and stages over to the 1.0 without any coding editting then I would use 1.0 in a heart beat cuz its some characters that I want so freakin bad but they only have em in 1.0 version :'(
-
i'm still using mugen-hi, but i am now considering switching over to 1.0, i have that 1.0 screenpack made by dr. zaius that i'd like to use
-
As of a few days ago, I've been using 1.0
-
1.0 user here
-

Because many people still don't trust 100% in mugen 1.0, like me.
-
I have both WinMugen Plus and Mugen 1.0. I love the winmugen plus cause the hi res is cool and it runs kinda good on my power desktop but sometimes depending on the screenp[ack i use it crashes alot. (and the music ) So i got 1.0 and i love the hi res on it but it lags like a man dragging godzilla by the tail sometimes. o.O# so i still have to plan on which mugen ware i plan my project to be on... for the safe side might have to go with winmugen plus cause my stuff gonna be kinda hi res and it runs at least a bit better with no lagging. :-??
-
Well I use both. I am creating content under winmugen but I have 1.0 as well to see how it handles then afterwards I can make a patch for my works using 1.0 exclusive materials so boths sides can benefit.
-
The only gripe I have with 1.0 now is tiling :L
-
I'm currently using 1.0 for storytelling, but most of the time, I'm using the old winmugen.
-

I effing agree with u on that one
-
here comes another old man tale lol!! this reminds me when my moms was waiting on every forms of windows to come out complete or bug free lol!! so i will do the same with 1.0 just wait to all the claims about it are actually there mainly in the form on memory usage. mugen plus is actually holding steady on my pc but i may need to upgrade it for 1.0 my pc is older than the hills (2k1) lol!! im not working at the moment, so i'm making due....
a lil off topic fellas, does mugen run off memory only or does it also run with memory in combination with a decent graphics card???
-
I have windows 7 and normal MUGEN started freezing, so I started using 1.0 and I am enjoying it.
