Hello, I think this is my first post here, I'm from the spanish rom hacking community (kown as 'Samu').
First of all i'd like to say thank you to everyone who has been developing this project, it's just amazing. It is a pity that it is halted, but as I've seen the code is indeed quite a mess (mostly because the GF code that you are extending is poor). I just hope you can reboot and continue with your awesome job asap.
On the other hand, despite this engine project being halted, I'd want to share something with everyone who may need it. I've been working with this engine for the last week to adjust it to my own requeriments, and for doing so, I've made a few move animations for gen4-6 (I don't know the exact number, but it is between 70 and 100 new animations).
Some of them are pretty neat, and other are just mere placeholders, here you have a list of the movements that AREN'T animated (if was way shorter this way).
PD: Wesleyfg animations have been included, and I've used some of Mr. Dollsteak's particles.
I've also modified some of the animations due to personal preferences (like aura sphere or shadow force), because tey didn't work propperly (like defog), or because they were incomplete (U-turn and Volt Switch). In addition, I've modified the behaviour of the move battle scripts nº35 (u-turn/volt-switch) to get it closer to the original.
Oh, and I did also find an error that I considered kind of 'critical'. Recharge moves like hyper beam were not working propperly, cause the recharge flag was getting loaded on the wrong pokemon bank. Long story short: I've fixed it.
Guys, you have worked a lot to make this engine aviable to everyone, so I'd feel really bad if I didn't share what I've been working on for the last week, even if the project is halted. Feel free to use any of the animations I've done (or the little code fixes). If any of this is useful for you when the project is rebooted or for anyone who wants to use this engine i'd be awesome.
