Welcome

This is a placeholder documentation for the Nutria FMV project, a proof-of-concept toolchain designed to make creating interactive movies easier via a node-based interface. It is not yet a fully functional product, but a placeholder for future documentation. Eventually, this will serve as a reference for non-technical users, covering topics such as hotkeys, customization, in-depth feature guides, and more.


Note

This documentation is a work in progress. Detailed guides for features, hotkeys, customization, and troubleshooting will be added soon.

Overview

Nutria FMV consists of two core components:

  • Nutria FMV Maker
    A node-based editor for designing interactive movie experiences and exporting project files.

  • Nutria FMV Player
    A runtime application that loads and plays back projects exported by the Maker.


Nutria FMV Maker

Nutria FMV Maker provides an intuitive canvas where you connect nodes representing scenes, choices, and media assets to build branching narratives.


Nutria FMV Player

Nutria FMV Player reads the exported project files and renders the interactive movie according to your node graph logic.


Future Documentation Roadmap

  • Hotkeys & Shortcuts
    Fast-access keyboard commands.

  • Customization
    Themes, layout tweaks, and default settings.

  • Features In-Depth
    Node types, media handling, branching logic explanations.

  • Troubleshooting & FAQs
    Common issues and solutions.

  • Glossary
    Key terms and concepts.


Contributing & License

Both Nutria FMV Maker and Nutria FMV Player are open-source projects under the GPLv3 license. While I greatly appreciate your interest in contributing, please note that both projects are currently in the MVP (minimum viable product) stage and still need significant polish.
