Configuration

Mugenhook comes with a configuration file (mugenhook.ini) which allows you to customize the plugin. This file can be edited with notepad (Notepad++ recommended!).

b - Option can be true or false

i - Option can be set to a specific integer number (not float)

sz - Option can be set to text

bHookCursorTable

Hooks a custom function into select screen loop which allows to read cursor position, and therefore configure each cell to play a different sound.

iCursorTableOperationType

Specifies the way cursor hook operates

bHookAnimatedPortraits

Allows to use "animated portraits", so you can use animations on select screen. Show stance of character like in Mortal Kombat.

bHookAnimatedIcons

Allows to use "animated icons", so you can use animations for every cell on select screen. Features logic for Mortal Kombat Trilogy style character transitions.

bEnableSelectAnimations

Enables animations on select screen once player finishes selecting fighters. Requires bHookAnimatedPortraits to work, obviously.

bEnableAnimationScale

Allows to rescale sprites with animated stances. Requires bHookAnimatedPortraits to work, obviously.
