Mugen Site Maker is an Open Source
Freeware that could convert a list of Mugen's characters into a website.
Mugen is a 2D fighting game engine that let
you create your own fighting game. Each character is made of differents
files (sound, sprites, states...). To play with them you have to add
them to the character list ( simple text document, originaly named 'select.def'
).
This tool read this 'select.def' and extract
the list of available characters in it (testing if they exist or not,
eliminate doubles entries...) and then extract from each character some
infos and pics to generate a simple website.
The website is made of two main parts: the index
and the character's webpages. Each of them is generated by a simple
sample html file with keywords that are substitued with their real values
during the generation process. The index show a list of all the characters
found in the 'select.def' with yperlink to their web pages. Character's
webpages could contain various datas (Author's name, version date, Mugen's
version...) and pics (portrait, standing pic...).
List of usable keywords and advanced configuration,
use of this tools is included in the readme.
Mugen Site Maker is mainly a sub-project
of KOF 91
(most of the source code is the same), so it suffer it lakes, for now.
This mean especially that some sff (Mugen's sprite format) could not
be loaded and crash the application (a litlle percent).
