2D Collision Box Editor

Developed With: C++, Boost, and SDL
Development Time : January 2015 to March 2015

This is a tool I developed to assist me in creating the collision boxes for my games. It allows the creation and editing of 3 types of collision boxes, Hit, Hurt, and Bounding boxes. I also added the ability to play the animation and edit the time per frame. When the animation is playing, the collision boxes will be displayed in real time allowing me to see how the animation looks without having to implement the boxes into the game.

There are two different save options, Save To File and Save To Code. Save To File will save the box and frame data to a text file and when the animation is loaded again, this file will be read and the data loaded into the application. Save To Code will save the data to a text file as code I can then copy and paste into the project. Right now the code is specific to my project, but in the future I would like to add the ability to specifiy how the saved code should look.

Features

• Create, edit and duplicate the collition boxes for each sprite in an animation
• Each sprite has the capacity for one hit box, one bound box and multiple hurt boxes
• Can edit the duration of each sprite in the aniamtion
• Can play the animation with the boxes and frame values currently set
• Save and load the box and frame data to an external text file
• Save the box and frame data as code I can paste directly into my project
