@oxMudxo: Yes, Fighter Creator is still being worked on, just been trying to get the engine working as perfectly as possible. And I removed the download link for the demo and the option to buy the engine because those versions of Fighter Creator are outdated.
The latest update is almost ready to go, just have to build the tutorial and example resources and get rid of any bugs that may appear. Once that's done then I will be able to also release the program on Steam.
Been a while since I've posted any information on the next update but, the engine and editor has basically been rewritten to fix a lot of bugs and massively improving performance, just have to polish up a few things and the update will be ready soon.
Here's a quick look at the editor:
Also added new features and made a lot of improvements to Resource Systems, which allows users to automate a lot of the development process, making game creation with Fighter Creator much easier:
Options -
Allows you to setup switches that users can activate/deactivate to change the way a resource works without having to actually know what variable they're changing.
Predefined Scripts -
Creation and usage has been completely modified. These are now created with a name, description, base script, and parameters. These parameters are all users will see when editing scripts created with the predefined script. So you can set them up to control how the frames in the script can be edited:
