Help with Custom Mugen Game

I think they would have to be coded together into one character and then that option can be worked in there with coding.

Thanks guys how difficult is it to do this?

way too much difficult and time consuming for me

smart palette could do that, but it must be super-smart for that - so the character changes features depending on the palette. i mean inner lines and contours, not just color.
2nd option is makind character2 a "costume" of character1. however coding this flawless is nearly impossible for a standalone mugen character. moves that force p2 into p1 animation (mainly, throws and grabs) will always force character1 to blink. even making him invulnerable to throws would not give a 100% guarantee. other than that, it just makes the animations shift their numbers depending on the palette or any other option.
the 3rd option is making 2 sprites on same page, 2 in one. the 2nd must Always be *some pixels* (fixed amount, the higher the better) above first. this requires both characters to have the exact same amount of sprites beacause they will share ALL animations. then, you make the 2nd one appear by using the Offset controller, forcing the sprites to shift down for *some pixels* (see above). that would be the best solution for standalone chars, meeting limitations listed above.
hope it helps

Thanks alot the above info is a massive help sadly i beleive that all three options maybe beyond my levels of coding/spriting but I am very greatful for the info

I was hoping that there might of beenn a way of doing this with the select.def file but im guessing that can not be done

in my custom Mugen Marvel Super Heroes Game (were i put all char that i found around) i use this strategy, the character that have two or more variant (ex. Spiderman, Symbiote Spiderman, Capitan Universe... or Hulk, Savage Hulk ... or Ironman MSHvsSF, Ironman by Zvitor) were put to the border of screen selection (that not have all the character's cell , but only the cell i choose to show), so if i move one step more on right,felt top,down (refer to there position) i have the "alternate version"

I have often to remap character in file system.def and dimension of character's cell in select.def
but without any experience in mugen programming i can have some good result....

Thanks bolt crank I will use that method if i can not do this any other way

OPS.. i was meant
"I have often to remap character in file select.def and dimension of character's cell in system.def "

Happy to be usefull  
good work

I believe AvX Colossus is capable of doing this. Possibly take a look at his code to see how
