Here is a clean, detailed step-by-step guide on how to convert MUGEN 1.1 → Ikemen GO, including what to copy, what to change, and how to fix common issues. I’ll also include simple “image-style diagrams” so you can visually understand the folder setup.

STEP 1 — Download & Prepare Ikemen GO​

Before anything:

• Download Ikemen GO (latest nightly or stable)
• Extract it into a clean folder

STEP 2 — Copy Your MUGEN Files​

Now take your MUGEN 1.1 folder and copy ONLY content files:

✔ Copy these folders:​

MUGEN/
├── data → IKEMEN_GO/data
├── fonts → IKEMEN_GO/font
├── fight → IKEMEN_GO/fight

IMPORTANT — DO NOT COPY THESE​

These MUGEN files are NOT needed:

• mugen.cfg
• mugen.exe

STEP 3 — Screenpack Conversion (MUGEN 1.1 → Ikemen GO)​

Most screen packs work BUT need small fixes.

---

Copy screenpack​

Copy your screenpack into:

1. IKEMEN_GO/data/
2. data/my_screenpack/
3. motif = data/my_screenpack/system.def

Ikemen GO uses:

1. save/config.ini

KEY DIFFERENCE (MUGEN vs IKEMEN GO)​

Feature	MUGEN 1.1	Ikemen GO
Netplay		✔
Lua scripting		✔
Tag system	limited	advanced
Compatibility	original	extended
Performance	lower	higher

FINAL SUMMARY​

To convert MUGEN 1.1 → Ikemen GO:
✔ Copy data
✔ Fix select.def paths
✔ Set correct screenpack in system.def
✔ Adjust resolution in config.ini
✔ Remove mugen.cfg completely
✔ Test and fix fonts/lifebars if needed
