DIP 1-1 : Debug Object in Middle <Sprite viewer>
DIP 1-2 : CLSN boxs and Axis
DIP 1-3 : Infinity Strikers, Time Stop, access Throw edit mode, access skill edit tools,DEMO check modes,stage select..maybe more
DIP 1-4 : basic velocity values
DIP 1-5 : unknown(b4 kof2k..it's ASCII codes)
DIP 1-6 : P1,P2 infinity life
DIP 1-7 : unknown...
DIP 1-8 : able to pause in anywhere...then press P2's pause to see game frame by frame

DIP 2-1 : AI/other stuff edit tools <Relative Distance>
DIP 2-2 : AI take control of P1 and P2.. I think
DIP 2-3 : P1 infinity life
DIP 2-4 : Shows Battal Ability, press start to gain energy to MAX
DIP 2-5 : Sound codes <Take note of this!!!>
DIP 2-6 : Sound player I guess
DIP 2-7 : AutoFire ?
DIP 2-8 : unknown

- Some developers don't even know that you can get EXACT sound (hex values and timing) using DIP 2-5 ;.

- You can get exact velocities using Debug 2-1 (I think.. too lazy to check ) because you can get P1 to P2 relative distance.

These are the Debug bios info I got from an old post of Kaku in EZDEV. All KOF character develepors should take note of this. I'll just update this post if I remember anything else. Don't be shy to add anything that will help KOF developers.

EDIT: January 10, 2003
I updated my "Tips" page. Check it out, specially made for all the KOF Character developers. It's more like a sermon than a tutorial though, so be warned.

1-3 is also the "boss enable" DIP, although I think they swapped that one around for 2001. It's been so long I don't remember.

Ph34r!

KOF developers may want to add this to their favorites. No KOF2k1 yet though.

Thanks Sander for taking in consideration my PM.

KOF Debug bios rocks. Tutorials are always good use to me. Thanks Sander.

Updated my tips page, for KOF character developers.

Hm, thanks for linking to my tutorial. By the way, I noticed a VERY stupid error in my own CLSN tutorial, so if anyone uses it, wait a bit. I used the wrong notes to make the calculations for the CLSN data conversion.

Also, note that the middle box inside the characters is supposed to be the height in Mugen [I think] - but it's not the same! If you use that data, your character will probably not be able to jump over the character. I think sunboy or Kaku [or was it Gogo4Evr?] mentioned that at the old EZBoard Shank.

To quote Homer Simpson:

DOH!

Fix it! Fix it! Fix it!

Sander: Good Work, this will surely help churn out Accurate KOF characters.
*runs off to utilize this information*

Kitsune: The middle box is the width and heigt of the characters. There is a width parameter in Mugen, don't know about height though. You might notice that almost all characters have the same width.

Yes, I knew what the middle box was. And I take it Chang and Choi don't have the same width as everyone else... ^_-

Anyway, yes, the height is customizable in Mugen. In the cns file, there's the following statement:

[Size]
height = 60 ;Height of player (for opponent to jump over)

I'm surprised you didn't know though. O.o

Sander: Thanks for linking my tutorial

Actually they have the same weight

About the height issue: Choi has a smaller height box in KOF than other characters. Also notice how your height box is smaller in crouching animations.

I'm pretty sure that height box in kof games is the accurate value to put in mugen, however regarding to other characters not being able to jump them, I believe the problem resides in other parameters such as jumping velocities from other characters. If they aren't accurate, the character won't be able to jump enough higher to pass over his oponents. (keep in mind that many characters uses KFM default velocity, which is fine for a smaller character, but not for KOF ones. Not sure about this though.

Kitsune: I didn't know about height because I just found out that I was using obsolete constants (Old KFM's :/). I'll add it in asap.

I'm thinking of adding template codes to my tips, You think this is Ok. An example of this is the KOF style jump code, rolls etc?

Yes, you should. The jump code in particular... it would help those characters that are supposed to be KOF edits especially.

Personally I would add those codes, however you know that they will end as a direct copy-paste to the character.
