I wish I knew c++ better, but I will be looking into making TimelineFX available in other game engines so I’ll probably take a closer look at this library as c++ is so universal.
You dont need to be a good programmer to use allegro, it really is childs play, (but powerfull for 2d stuff). It’s just a drawing engine. Its also very well documented, I dont know your programming skill, but if you wrote timelinefx yourself (in any language), you will be able to write the required code for allegro in no time . Have a look at some of the basic tutorials and you will see, its a doddle. As for c++, I use it, but I dont write in c++, im old school C, gets teh job done. C++ is for lots of people to work on the project at the same time. For 1 man band, C is the fastest way to get the job done.
I’m in the process of learning c/c++ so at some point in the future (no eta as yet!) I hope to have an official library which I’ll then look to plugin into as many game engines as I can.
Been reading over the forums, but dont see any advance on a C++ version. Has anyone made a well documented C++ version yet?
Hi. I’m an author of the C++ port. The sources are here https://github.com/damucz/timelinefx . I don’t know what advance you would need. For me everything is working as expected, I have no further plans or todos. Don’t hesitate to fork the repository or commit the patch. It’s why I released them free. Cheers.
Hi Damucz, you did a great job on the c++ version, you remind me I should highlight this library more on this site! I also noticed someone has done a javascript version too: https://github.com/gooddoggy/timelinefx
Great job, Damucz. Thanks.
I forked your repo and added a sample based on SFML lib (if anybody prefer instead of the marmelade sdk).https://github.com/fredakilla/timelinefx/tree/sfml_sample
note : js version is great too 😉
Hi mate, great job on SFML port, I am wondering if you could have a look at my issue please: http://www.rigzsoft.co.uk/forums/topic/help-with-some-of-the-effects/
I am trying to do a SDL port…
Hello
Based on Marmalade loader I have prepared a version for Qt. Repository is here:

PawelI have spend some time recently updating my Qt implementation with some more features and to achieve the final visual effect similar to the one in the editor. Thanks to the Blitz implementation I fixed grayscale image conversion, frame animations, blending etc.
Additionally:
* eff files are opened directly
* atlas texture is automatically generated (there is an atlas viewer in the application)
* you can iterate over several atlas resolutions (512, 1024, 20148px)
* animations are generated to separated FramebufferIt happens that application is crashing when switching between effects – seems like something is not fully cleared when I loading new effect.
Regards
PawelHi, sorry missed your new post there. Do you mean that the editor is crashing?
Is qt easy to set up? I could install it and take a look at your implementation.
