Street Fighter Multiple Modes and Master List ?

[kllrwlf]

I'm new to Mugen... spent a lot of quarters playing SF2 over 14 years ago whenever it first came out.

What are the modes that appear for some of the characters?  From what I gathered, each mode is related to another version of the character that was released with whatever added moves.

Also, is there some sort of master or recommended list?

There's so many different versions for some characters... especially Ken and Ryu.

I'm trying to end up with 1-3 versions of each character that's closest to the arcade and balanced

I'll answer since no one wants to help. Trying to tell you what char is better than they other is a matter of opinion. To me a char might look "kick @$$" but when you play them they suck. So trying to tell you you need this Ryu over that Ryu is based on your preference.

As for different modes, well that depends on the char and what you mean about "modes." What I know about modes is press start and he changes to mech, orochi, shadow, etc. Just read the readme files in the char folders.

Getting into Mugen is not an over night process. Not trying to be mean here but if you want it to be a quick process download a torrent and get the hell out .

BTW I'm old school too glad to meet ya and welcome to Infinity!

Modes off the top of my head.

-------------------
Grooves.
(Street fighter Alpha) X-ism, A-ism, V-ism

(Can someone fill in the SNK grooves.)

-------------------
Specific characters.

Zangief (Mech Mode) Marvel vs. Capcom.
Ryu (Evil - (really a misnomer) for when Ryu is consumed by an evil intent to win at all costs.)
Mode Change Ryu (MvC again - Ryu can change between his, Ken's and Akuma's movesets.)

-----------------
MvC info (cont.)  lifted from Wikipedia... Ugh.
# Mega War Machine: A form of War Machine that cannot block, but also cannot be hit-stunned or dizzied. Typically called Gold War Machine by fans. His power and defense increases dramatically, but his movement speed is greatly decreased.
# Hyper Venom: A sped-up form of Venom with afterimages, called Red Venom by fans. He's the fastest character in the VS. Series itself, but he takes about two times more damage than everyone else.
# Orange Hulk: A speedy version of Hulk with his moveset from Marvel Super Heroes sans Hulk's super-armor.
# Lilith-Mode Morrigan: A form of Morrigan with Lilith's palette and moves.
# Shadow Lady: A cyborg palette swap of Chun-Li, similar in style to Shadow from Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter but with a different variety of cyborg-based moves. Her speed also increases, similar to Shadow.

Various endings in MvC allude to other characters with different modes...

-----------
Custom modes (MUGENs representation of sacrificing accuracy for fun and typically looser combos.)
ie. PoTS' Master Ryu.

This is not a list of prefixes for characters.
