Help with 2d figher

Wouldn't it be awesome if we had an engine like a "Cadillacs and Dinossaurs" example?
In my opinion, this was the best fighting game ever. You could even play with 4 players at once on screen! It used an improved Final Fight engine! Both games are from Capcom. I also like the Double Dragon engine, but I wonder if there's any around!

Here's the new version without the bugs...

There's a new problem when the characters hit each other. The animation stops completely because of the collision, how can I fix this?
The animation also stops when they just walking in to each other...

I managed to do the hit/life system nice, but the problem with animation stopping is just ugly.

@Aloan: Awesome game. I'm hoping to have my beatemup done by the end of the year. It is heavily inspired by Capcom's early 90's games, especially C&D, Punisher and Battle Circuit. There are good examples out there for making these kinds of games if you are interested. If you look at each beatemup Capcom did, you can see that each game improves on the last, so they most likely iterated on the code to get a new game out each year. Once I have base code done, I hope to do something similar.

+1 vote Cadillacs and Dinosaurs was a great game, definately one of the best beat em up fighting games.

Of course it would. All games 2D are awesome. In my opinion one of the strongest gaming genres.

-Have you tried the XoR condition options?
-Can't you Force the Animations to play even when colliding is true?

I'm sorry, but I guess that I'm not that experienced with MMF2 to know what XoR is, and I don't have a clue how to force the animation...

I have not used MMF2 for that long and I can't find that much information on this sort of game.

But i'm learning new stuff about MMF2 almost every day :grin:

Can someone help me? If I get help with this little part I guess I can figure most of the game out by myself.

please?

Here you go. I commented the stuff I changed/fixed in the original file for you. I changed your hotspots to the feet of the characters, too. Hope this helps you.

I'll make an open source fighting game. I have one that was close to finished, I just have to tweak my code and add comments, the hardest parts. And I have to add an ending...
