Project M Ceases Development
Project M, the melee inspired Brawl Mod, has officially stopped development, leaving 3.6 as the final build of the game. It's been a long run (and they didnt finish isaac, lyn and knuckles...) but they've done a great job. Now the team hopes to move on to other projects.
I'm kinda sad to see work finished on it, but I'm happy with what we still have so it's all good to me. The best of luck to the PM dev team in the future.

Re: Project M Ceases Development
They did an excellent job, even in just replicating the speed of Melee. The biggest question is why can't we download it from the website anymore.
Seriously, how is anyone new to PM gonna get 3.6 now?
I still wish they just took air dodging out of the game. That would have solved all my problems.
Literally. No joke. I'm serious. Somebody do that. Please.

Re: Project M Ceases Development
The reason that PM can't be downloaded is because that's what made PM illegal. It was distributing (a highly modified version of) Brawl's assets, which is illegal. PMDT's splitting off to do a legal thing and they don't want PM following them.

Re: Project M Ceases Development
Yes, you have to get it from other sources now
Also some dev builds got leaked which are available for download and use, which do contain an almost complete knuckles which is very interesting

Yeah, Knuckles was around 95% done, Lyn was like, 86%, Isaac was only about 50% and apparently there was another character but the name escapes me that only has the model.

Re: Project M Ceases Development
Wow I was just getting into project M and now they have to stop due to legal problems :/ This is really upsetting but I hope the community will still get bigger and maybe someday it can continue. Or maybe their next project is actually good aswell. I'm surprised I found out about this from Chao Island so thanks for the update but yea I'm sad

Re: Project M Ceases Development
To be fair, PM has been illegal since they started giving characters new movesets. The only thing that happened legally was that PMDT became more aware of what could happen if a suit did come their way, and peeps were saying that they thought Nintendy was gonna make a move.

Re: Project M Ceases Development
Yep, at this point it's pretty much guaranteed either Nintendo dropped down on their heads finally, or they want to get into business deals with Nintendo for their next game venture and didn't want Project M following them around, as it wouldn't be the best rep, an illegal game mod, as impressive as it is.
Considering how abrupt it was (they were talking about new costumes being finished literally less than a week before they announced development halt), chances are it was a combination of both.

Nintendo hasn't done anything yet. Its just the possibility of something more than a C&D got them to quit.

Re: Project M Ceases Development
That is the post I read before I made my post here about the topic, and it sounds correct. I wish it wasn't so abrupt but I guess it had to be done. It's just sad to think about now

Re: Project M Ceases Development
Could someone maybe explain what these outside sources for PM are or link me to one? I don't care if it's illegal, they can do what they want to me.
You get to a point where ya just don't give a f***, ladies and gents.

With Nintendo making a bigger push in terms of enforcement, it's likely that if they didn't stop, Nintendo would force them to. I can't help but think that it might lead to some retaliation from the community.

To be fair, its not related to Nintendo at all, so the community would just be lashing out at Nintendo for no reason.
