5 months ago Hi! Glad you found interest in my little utility, really appreciate it. <3 I already sent this over on the Ikemen Discord, but for archival's sake (and so it shows up in Google searches), my mini-gude:
so iguana is a command line tool, it has no GUI or anything so double-clicking the .exe wont do anything besides flash a window on screen for a sec in order to use it you'll need to know the basics of how to use the command line in windows; that's a bit outside what im willing to explain right this second but a quick start guide:
how to command line (speedrun any%)
-
you can start command line in a few different ways, the easiest IMO is to hold shift and right-click inside the folder you have iguana's executable in, then click "Open command window here"
-
to run something in
cmd, type the executable's name (assuming it's either in the foldercmdis currently in, called the Working Directory (you can change this usingcd "C:/Your/Directory/Here"; if you openedcmdwith my method then the working directory should be in whatever folder you right-clicked in already)) -
pro tip: if you want to give
cmda file path without typing the whole thing out, you can simply drag and drop the file ontocmdand it'll automatically fill out the entire path, quotation marks and all
so thats all just general command line stuff, but as for using iguana itself:
using iguana
in the most basic form, iguana takes a .def or .cmd file path as input, with the -i flag before said file path, like this:
iguana.exe -i "C:/path/to/file.cmd"
iguana.exe -i "C:/path/to/file.def"or an entire folder of characters:
iguana.exe -i "C:/path/to/characters"the outputted files will be in the same folder as the input file itself by default
you can add more flags to control iguana's output to some degree, which might be useful if you're standardizing specific things across a ton of characters:
iguana.exe -i "C:/path/to/file.cmd" -kp -nomotionsyou can find a full list of these flags and what they do with:
iguana.exe -h
Hi, I want to use this program to work on my mugen game, but it is not working. I don't know how to use it. I would appreciate an in-depth guide on how to set it up, because I'm completely lost.
