Question about how to create characters and enemy abilities...

[Lantern]

I'm a little lost

I want to create enemies and players, each with abilities like explosive attacks, dashing, laser shots, etc

I've been reading about a program called Fighter Factory Studio. But I understand that it's only compatible with MUGAN.

What tools should I use to create and customize characters with unique abilities?

Everything you just mentioned above is absolutely doable with Openbor and the program you can use to configure your characters is Chrono Crash Modders Tool:

Chronocrash Modders Tools - Updates

www.chronocrash.com

I advise you to also refer to the Openbor Manual for each of the functions and specify which version of the engine you intend to use (I recommend 4.0 7612).

Is this the OpenBOR manual?

Projectile – OpenBOR Wiki

I rely heavily on this one even though I'm on version 4.0:

OpenBORManual - dreamcast.wiki

dreamcast.wiki

Use Ctrl+F to search for a specific function or keyword.

And yes, you can also refer to the one you mentioned.

Excellent. I'll be looking into the manual

Regarding ChronoCrashModders Tool, do you know of any tutorials you could recommend? I was just looking for tutorials on YouTube, but some are quite old. Anyway, I'm downloading Chrono Crash Modders Tool right now

Sorry if my replies are a bit curt. I'm still getting used to this forum, and the interface seems a little strange to me. I mention this because I just read that you mentioned ChronoCrashModdersTool

No problem, I didn't find your reply curt at all.

I simply suggest you specify the location of the game's data file to Modders Tool, and from there,
in the Player tab, then Animation (in the top taskbar), you can visually configure your character.

Few tutorials actually exist because those who know how to develop spend most of their time on their respective projects.
