i dont know what xxxxxxx.yyy and yyy is,but when i downloaded a char the open save came up.no prob i think.so it opens with winrar and it has all the things in it so i go in my mugen,so there it is three colerd books stacked on ecth other with a belt around it.so i drag it in chars or extract it in it whatever u prefer.so i add it to data select like ud usaly do but they dont seem to work still.am i doing something wrong and yes i unchecked that one thing. OMFG! Dammit dude, where the hell have you been? Normally Id tell you to stop trying to play your damn mugen, but jeez.... XXXXX.YYY is the file name, k? XXXXX is the file like ryu-X, where YYY is the type of file, like DEF or, maybe easier to understand, mp3. So, itd be a file like ryu-X.def. Duh. Now, what you need to do is unpack the char. Itll be in a folder, named the SAME THING as the .def file inside. Simply add this to your chars folder. Go into your Select.def file, and add the char, along with any music and stages, and even the order of the char. Example: ryu-X, randomselect, music=sound/Ryu.mp3, order=1 Do you understand yet!?? yes.execpt how do i unpack achar the rest i get.
