So, I'm going ahead and release this thing.
Case Maker 2.1: http://www.mediafire.com/?0lflw51p4mm
Case Maker 2.1 Project Files: http://www.mediafire.com/?89obf2eijhm
Court Records Turnabout by DDR Khat - This is the source of a case that was made by DDR Khat to demonstrate what the case maker could do. It is also a handy learning guide as it also shows you how to do some of the more complex things. Some things may be tricky to understand so make sure you take notes of things or ask in the topic. This source is released ONLY as a learning guide and is not to be re-released or sold.
To view open this zip file, you will need WinRAR, or 7zip. Winzip has been reported as having problems.
Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Animations - Animations from the first game, including case 5 animations.
Justice For All Animations - Animations from the second game.
With this one, you can do testimonies, cross-examinations, & investigations. Only problem is, no profile options, & you can't present evidence at cross-examinations. But you still can end them though, through pressing witnesses.
I know MechaBowser already has a topic for this, but I wanted to create my own topic, in case I wanted to modify my top post, or something. If Croik decides to merge this topic with MechaBowser's current one, that's fine. I thought it would be easier for me to make a new topic then sticking with an old one.
So with that said, kudos to MechaBowser for a wonderful program.

Even if he is back, it does not mean he'll finish it. However, I think the project is still dead, unless he states otherwise.

Actually, I'm talking with MechaBowser about that. I'm hoping I can pick it up and continue it. :D
By the way, I should probably introduce myself. I'm ZeroTheBurninator, I'm 19, and I'm in college for Computer Programming.
I'm a long time programmer since Middle School, and I've got nothing else on my plate. This is an incredibly sexy program, and I'd love to continue it.

There's probably something wrong with your script then. Perhaps its the wrong use of your variables.
I can build case.exe's just fine.
BTW, the tab in 2.1b is called 'Build Case', FYI.

Well..... MechaBowser might be able to give you a better answer than I could. However, considering...
1. He's not working on the case maker anymore.
2. He probably has an updated version on his computer somewhere, which he never sent to anyone. Although, there's the possiblity that he probably dumped all his work files down the drain (deleted/removed them, etc.).
3. Asking him questions about a case maker that was originally for beta testing only, would probably get him little upset.
Were you working on an investigation scene? Because I've never tried my hand at making that, which was why it was missing from my project files. >_<
But if you want, I can probably take a look at your project, and see whats wrong.

Joking aside, you have done a really funny mistake that I will explain so you can learn from it, also to hopefully make sure others don't do the same. P.S you don't have to do this, less you plan on inserting music.
Hmm, if there's a contradiction here, I best reveal it fast!
There is clearly a variable contradiction here!
Value 1 is the variable being used, but the only variable similar to this in the case is Value1!
I don't see the big problem, it's just a space bar difference?
Whaaaaaat?!
I see.. well.. in this case, I declare the case maker...
and viola! a bug made fun!
P.S you may want to typo-check that case, and also check over your scenary, Maya is standing INFRONT of the witness stand =)
P.S.S This post was made with the intent to make someone learn from this mistake and not insult him. I have made this mistake 4 times before, its a really EASY mistake to make, I promise.
Ending note.. for those that haven't played my case yet, you may want to, I will soon be getting ahold of N-Mario and giving him a link to the source files to the case. This is for a learning guide ONLY and should not be taken to modify and use/claim as your own. Why someone would want to? I dunno, but meh, I feel I should add that. Just fixing a few bugs that were left in (due to no one else seeing them but me hehe..) and fixing the cross-examination a bit to work like it should, rather then cutting off the way it does in the demo, in the version I'll be submitting you will have to press the last statement to finish the "demo". I will also be making it so my line-breaks are universal rather then my custom ones at the time of making (Which was ` I don't think you'd ever use that character, least I knew I wouldn't..)

As for typos, they happen, I made a few typos when making the demo case. I play through to double-check, I also have my sister play through and my friend :P even then some typos get past...
As for Maya being stood infront of the court-stand, that is simply because you don't know how to fix it, which I'll now explain;
What you have in this game for "view" is 3 "layers" (if you will, people may be able to refer to this easier)
||| <-- three layers.. yeah?
||The very top layer, anything here goes ontop of everything else
|The middle layer, the displayed character goes here
The bottom layer, the basic background is here.
That may not look very good but it should hopefully give the basic idea. Follow the line downwards. Anyway, if you want something to go infront of the character to have the character appear "behind" it. then it have to be in the "OVERLAY" (I call it that)
This is done quite simply like this;
Courtroom.png
CourtroomFRONT.png
The "FRONT" tells the case-maker that it is the overlay. the rest of it is considered the underlay (the first layer)
Hope this enlightens more people

(Note: I have not downloaded the tutorial/graphic files, just the program, because dial-up takes too long with 20 MB files.
)Also, look at "STUFF.lua", too see some interesting things used internally by the program. If you could access some MF functions inside this Lua script, then you could hypothetically add new features!

Too bad you can't examine things or present evidence though....The download link you give IS the source files. You didn't provide an EXE file in the zip. Also, your zip file is partially corrupted or something. In the Windows XP unzipper, a couple of the backgrounds refused to unzip, and I had to download them from CR. Nice demo for 2.1 though!

Bah, seems I accidently overwrote the download link I had set for the demo case. Oh well, at least I can give the source code to everyone now.
p.s your problem is easy, you haven't created a testimony yet. It is it's OWN actionlist, Databases -> Testimony

This hasn´t happened before! I can´t find anything wrong!
