Yesterday I took my time reorganizing the court record code (since it is the oldest and most non-standard code on pwlib) and was able to bring some of it into the current standard so I can add the menu effects painlessly. Also I just need to finish the placement for the Talk option in Investigation to have investigation base working.
The Demonstration Video 2 will have some storyline so people will be able to see pwlib working on a more game-like example. It will be also longer, of course. It can also feature some cameos from CR itself (if someone wants to be a cameo in it).

I was just thinking that maybe, as a minimum, you could put together a tool that spits out code for the most common stuff in a regular case. For example, in adding an animation for a character ... the user could choose which animation file he's adding, and then decide what to call the function, and the tool could spit out the code for that function. Just a suggestion that I thought might be a little easier than putting together a full-fledged GUI/case-editor.
I must say, though, this is looking awesome! It's exciting to see so much work being done on this :D

In AHLSL, you can easily integrate code with an "#include". You can create a folder with your character code and graphic, and just add it in your project with a simple #include. No .cm3, no nothing. AHLSL is a language you can expand code easily.
I may do an editor, most possibly as soon as pwlib is done. I'm starting to get a bit skeptical about making an editor out, due to views. So make people believe more in PWLib by adding something that gives extra friendliness too. A good project comes out better if more people show their interest, and it counts views too. I really thanks all people who gives views, posts and even shows extra interest into this little project.

I just had a good idea for the demonstration video 2 story, and it might show things not seen on the demonstration video 1 (like Move and Talk, maybe even some psyche lock). Also there will be a cameo from one character of CR (since no one else showed interest, but there is still time to, so...). The name of the demonstration case will be Turnabout Revelations. I may even release a little demo version of the game in pwlib so people can try it out, but I haven't decided yet.

I some posts ago presented the idea of AHLTL. And with it the tip that it is the last part of the Psyche-Locks needed stuff.
So, after a long day of work, here is it: http://ksatechnology.no-ip.biz/pwlib/AHLTLBanner.png. So, Psyche-Locks are about to make an appearance.

With this psyche-lock talking, I just felt up to cook something.
Pre Psyche-Lock. And I really need a better set of chains. Those animate horribly.

I guess what I was more trying to say is that this is an absolutely wonderful thing ... if all the casemakers see final releases with all intended features, it seems like we'll have casemakers for everyone to use. From the simple, novice user who just wants to have a good way to share their fanficts in another way, to the experienced user who will put together epic masterpieces with new game mechanics and ideas, it really feels like the Phoenix Wright fangame scene is about to explode. And I appreciate anyone that makes that possible, including you. Thanks a lot for your work on this

Originally it was going to be a pw engine for a game project, called Phoenix Wright: Troubled Trials. As I was going to use it myself, there wasn't a need for an editor, so no editor was decided on any development stage. Hence the name PWLib, or Phoenix Wright Library, no "PWCasemaker" or something, or "KSA_Tech's Case Maker".
An editor will come out, since even now there will be people that will praise a casemaker only due to an editor, so just to keep up with those. But the first release will be editor-less.

I'm using pure aige with a simple script in AHLSL, so I can easily test AHLTL effects.

What's needed to complete pwlib to a release-able level (I may miss something):
-menus animations/buttons flashing
-evidence add animation (pw1 when you get the passport for example)
-guilty/not-guilty/game over door close (extra from release 1, may be on release 1 or not)
Also since someone commented, changing fonts on pwlib is easy and possible.

Just with a name change, it will be named Turnabout Decadency.
The story runs around the murder of the elder daugther of the president of a Megacorporation. The defendand is Nyala Nagawara, known for about a year by Apollo, and working with him since Case 3. Trucy is a crucial witness as well. also a new prosecutor surfaces.
As this i'll be needing help with the prosecutor edits.
I won't release PWLib until I do the video, since I need to test PWLib in a real game to catch possible bugs. A casemaker came out full of bugs and I don't want to release PWLib with strong bugs.

With this, PWLib reaches a release-able version. 97% completion for release.

By the way who was the one that started the 3D support idea?

What no save yet? I think I'll wait until one is made.

Also I can make a simpler saving system that can make up to it if people want it badly.
On a side note: applying save won't change the actual code one pulls out, so you can develop games with a "non-save-able" version of pwlib, and just update pwlib to get it automatically.

Real, complete AIGE saving isn't needed on pwlib, but only a part of it, so I think I CAN pull it out on release 1.

Due to pwlib's format, i'll only need to save 2 things. One is almost done.
Ah, and for those who like programming: AIGE has a new variable type: file.
