Hi,

I have decided to release the source code for the FFilmation Editor. Originally I didn’t plan to do it because It is not finished, the code is shitty and I was afraid people would change the logo and sell it to some unsuspecting client of his.

However I have received lots of complains about the application not working in MACs, probably something about the charset or the method I use to resolve relative paths. Or both. I don’t have a MAC so there is no way I can fix this myself, so I hope releasing the sources will allow someone of you to fix the issues and hopefully send the updated sources back to me.

Also, I don’t foresee me putting time into the editor in the near future, so I’d better make it public and see if something nice happens. Before you download it, some warnings:

• The code is shitty. Really. When I started working on the editor I didn’t think of how to enginner the application and how to approach the development, and It shows. Expect duplicated code, stupid variable names, even some code in some frames in the timeline when I felt specially lazy and didn’t want to write a new class.
• Remember to comment out the autoupdate feature when you compile, otherwise it will keep on looking for the online version and prompt for an update.
• The source for the engine is not included. Make sure you add your engine’s classpath to the application.
• I know this would be better made into a Flex application, but as I use Flash, the sources are in FLA format. If someone ports this to Flex send the project to me and I’ll make it public too.

Ok, that said, here’s the download link. Have fun.
