Free and open source 2D game creation engine The mission of the FIFE project is to create a cross platform 2D game creation framework. Games can be created with combination of editor tools, game specific scripts, engine, and game content (e.g. maps, graphics and sounds).NOTE: FIFE is licensed and distributed under the terms of the GNU Library or Lesser General Public License (LGPL). Here are some key features of "FIFE": · Games can be created with combination of engine, editor tools, game specific scripts and game content (e.g. maps, graphics and sounds). · Framework is not tied to any type of game (e.g. RTS, RPG), but instead provides flexible platform for all of them. · Framework supports different isometric views with addition of pure top-down view. · Instead of full 3D flexibility, engine focuses mainly on using high quality 2D graphics. This puts less demands on target platforms and also simplifies the framework and game development. · Purpose of the editor tools is to help to bind the game content with the engine and scripts. What's New in This Release: · Elevations removed (Fallout legacy). Support for namespaces: New resource infrastructure migrated into whole engine. This enables: · uniform pooling for all resources that need to be pooled. · uniform loading for all resources (model stuff, images, sounds...). · uniform saving for resources which support saving (model stuff). · Datasets are now stored in a flat list in model instead of dataset hierarchy. · Changes in model are now bookkeeped. Observer interfaces provided for change listeners. · This enables e.g. reacting only to changes instead of polling on every round. · Also critical enabler for triggers. · Instances now support initial rotation value. · Objects support default actions. · Further model cleanup. · All resources are now defined with principle 1 file / 1 resource. · Importing of objects can now be done also based on directories where they are contained. · Relative paths are now used instead of absolute ones. · All loading happens now from python (tinyxml dependency removed). · Improved error reporting. · Possibility to move instances on map. · Possibility to rotate instances on map. · Possibility to zoom the map (OpenGL mode only). · Painting with currently selected instance (e.g. large ground areas). · Importing of multiple objects based on given directory. · Initial map creation wizard (still work in progress). More assets: · Graphics, sounds, music... · Two new maps matching the storyline. · Rio de hola now conforms to package structure: http://wiki.fifengine.de/Fife_Package_Specification · Popup menu integration, demonstration of actions (kick, talk). · Hiding of scrollbars. · Text wrapping. · A lot of smaller improvements. · Pixel perfect instance picking (taking transparency into account). · Ability to get list of instances from given screen rectangle. · Distance calculations made easy, exposed to scripts. · Instance outlining. · Instance coloring. · Screenshots are now saved in png format (instead of bmp). · Stereo sound support in linux (introduced with the help of openal-soft). · Both renderbackend and separate images can now render graphical primitives (e.g. lines, dots..). · Each camera now has separate set of renderers. Allows truly adjusting cameras independently. · Zooming capability (currently properly supported only by OpenGL backend). · Support for drag cursor definitions. · OpenGL graphics chunking size is now definable in settings. Should help e.g. with large backgrounds. · GenericRenderer adding customised rendering capabilities for scripts. · Initial package structure defined for FIFE clients. · Updated guichan to the latest release 0.8.1. · Usage of unittest++ instead of boost unittests. · Lots of bug fixes. · Switch from GPL 2.0 to LGPL 2.1 (or newer).
