In July 2007 another hack based on the last high-res hack allowed for only the select screen to be high-res and not the stages. Later that month, another hack was done to add support for high-res select screens.

In May 2007, a hacked version of WinM.U.G.E.N was released by a third party that added support for high resolution stages (like those seen in Guilty Gear X) at the cost of losing support to standard resolution M.U.G.E.N stages. Because of the changes between the DOS and Linux versions of M.U.G.E.N however, many older characters required at least the SFF files to be modified to show palettes correctly (notably on portraits) as well as some changes in how certain CNS script controllers functioned, causing some minor upset and those that could still run the DOS version in some form sticking to that, as well as DOS patches to downgrade characters to be compatible with the older version of the engine. This version of M.U.G.E.N is functionally the same as the last Linux release, though with subtle differences and unique issues, mostly revolving around proper music and music plugin support.

The private WinM.U.G.E.N beta contained a two-character roster limit, locked game modes, and nag screen With the beta leaked and Elecbyte gone, a "no limit" hack that removed most of these limitations was made available in 2004, followed by subsequent updates to deal with bugs and other issues. Later speculation pointed at leaks made public of a private Windows-based M.U.G.E.N beta that was provided to donators. However, the development group discontinued the project in 2003 and shut down their site.

For a time, Elecbyte had posted a request for donations on their site to legally obtain a Windows compiler to make a Windows version of M.U.G.E.N. Development of the DOS version ceased when Elecbyte switched to the Linux platform in November 2001. Developmentįirst released on July 17, 1999, M.U.G.E.N was initially created for MS-DOS. Officially, Elecbyte claims to have forgotten what the acronym M.U.G.E.N stood for, but the readme documentation states that its meaning referred to the days when the engine was meant to emulate shooting games as opposed to fighting games. While the engine is set up primarily for fighting game development, several other game types have been developed using it, including shooter and platform style games.

The engine allows users to insert created characters, background stages, and other game objects through interpreted text files, graphics, and sound compilations to create a functioning fighting game similar to commercial games.

Beta version of it were made to work on DOS, Linux and Windows platforms, distributed through their website. The engine was originally released in July 17, 2001.
