just saying, fantastic job guys, really was not looking forward to rigging up dosbox again for this.
also someone was saying they want a "training" mode?
why not just enhance the "god mode" command with a "player" switch...
eg
"/godmode" would work as it does now (have not tried it sorry)
"/godmode player2" would cause player two to activate god mode.

this assumes godmode is just infinite health, rather then no hit style...
(sorry, i only found openomf a day or two ago, so have not really played with it much yet)

Hello there and welcome :)

The training mode are not likely to be included until after version 1.0 for simple reasons such as it won't be of much use until the robots can do their moves mostly correct. Though they are getting closer to that.

Enjoy OpenOMF, they are talking about starting on making the tournament mode now (because they want a break from fixing big nasty bugs, and AI). So there might be some basic tournament mode updates coming eventually. At the moment the game mostly work in 1player mode, the AI is really different than what you're used to, and Destructions really crash up the game, so avoid them :p

If you want to play tournament mode you'll still have to setup DosBox (isn't a problem, it mostly runs straight out of the box).

OpenOMF does have a 'god' console command.

Destructions should not crash the game anymore, they just might flake out a little still (but they're better than they were).

Thought I should probably post this here, too ...

Some times I miss a +1 button.

Hello team,

Any interesting news? Just to calm down the beast .

What we have been up to:
- Reverse engineering. Lots of this left to do, too. Still a pile of animation tags that we don't know. Even so, we've learned a lot, and many new (special) moves are now (more) usable.
- We set up a coverity scan for OpenOMF (a static analysis tool), and Vagabond has been fixing tons of tricky resource leaks, error management issues etc. As a result, we should have less crashy and resource hungry game binary.
- New HAR moves implemented and made to work better (eg. Shadow Grab, Stasis Activator, ...)
- Also lots of general improvements in gameplay, menus, engine, etc.

Also, we have had some code contributions from some new people too (gdeda, exander77, see https://github.com/omf2097/openomf/graphs/contributors for details), so some thanks go that way too

For changes in our resource file parsing, see https://github.com/omf2097/libShadowDive/commits/master
For changes in OpenOMF core code, see https://github.com/omf2097/openomf/commits/master

And yes, I thought of making a video, but there isn't really that much to see. Most of the changes aren't very photogenic

aweseome work, truely appreciate all the hard work to get this done!!

I tried build 0.65_x64 but can't make the joystick or the brz scaler to work:
- joystick is available for selection, but can't select it
- scaler does not show up at all

[katajakasa]

[schlang]

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately same issue with the nightly build:

[katajakasa]

Ok, thanks. Looks like I can make the scaler work if I compile both scaler and the main game myself, but release versions do not work. Need to take a look at it when there is some time. Frankly, the scaler is not a very high priority
