WTF?? 99 EUROS? Dollars I can afford. Euros... well, there goes my budget for buying a camphone.
So before I run off and get it... anyone bought MMF2 yet? What's new in it? The debugger can save me weeks of work, something I keep bothering CT about. Another major problem with MMF2 is the collision system and the way MMF handles values. The old one had a bad, bad collision system. It's not just about hot-spots, sometimes things just go through other things without detecting a collision, sometimes it always detects a collision after the collision has gone past, messing up my physics engines.
The value handling was bad too, you could allocate a value to only one object, but every object would have that alt value, and yes I've read all the different methods to fix it and none worked. I did figure one out which I tossed into my Click FAQ, but that was buggy too.
Then there's the various bugs in MMF where things on a long > 300 event engine would mess up randomly.
And people ask me why I stop making games . Heck, look at my abandoned Snow Siege game. If someone fixes the engine, it could be a masterpiece after a graphics rehaul.
Point is... if MMF2 fixes all those problems, I'd be ready to get it. Oh, and I'll give 10 of my DC points to whoever can fix my engine in Snow Siege, whether in MMF or MMF2.

On second thoughts, I'm keeping my precious DC points. No bug bounties today .

There is a bug in MMF 2 (demo) build D240. Which lets you create CCN's. Ive reported it to clickteam already. Lets see who else can find it. (Dont post instructions on how to do it i think thats a little mean to clickteam.)
The old mmf collisions were pretty bad, I think they deterioriated with performance if you had lots of objcts and events. I haven't tested how well things run with lots of events and stuff yet, but generally mmf2 seems to have a much faster run time so I recon collisions will be a bit better.

Firespell, don't be stupid. I can make it save as "game.ass". Just type in .ass instead of .mfa.
ya thats not funny. Thats not how the bug works. Any way i emailed clickteam and they say the ccn created only works in MMF2 demo. Not vitalize 4 or EXE's

Well, I did. I guess it depends on your bank, though, but usually it should work fine. When you receive the order information, there are the IBAN-codes and stuff that you need when making the bank transfer.
