Currently my cap file crashes construct every time we try to 'launch explorer' from the animator window. We've tested the cap file on 3 different computers and it crashes all of them. Is there a work around for changing collision masks that doesn't involve launching the explorer? Or is the only option to create a separate sprite for collisions? Or (please say this is true!) is there a setting I have wrong somewhere that will magically make construct stop crashing?

I swear I used to be able to change collision masks with this cap file!

Ok. We found the point in our revisions where the launch explorer stopped working... so here are the two versions. We don't see any differences between them that would cause the image explorer thingie in animations to crash. Any ideas?

Or am I slowly going insane?

As far as I can say, the crashing only occurs when trying to export the frames of Enemy1. I had no problems exporting TalkPers1, key, Key2 or Pillar.

Interesting that Enemy1 is the only object of the 5 that has its default animation renamed to "Walking", while in Start Animation it still says "Default". However, just setting Start Animation to "Walking" didn't solve the problem, but it may have something to do with it.

Sorry for not being able to help more.

Sorry, but yes the explorer is currently broken. It's something to do with imagepoints I think.

You may be right, newt. After your post I played around with the imagepoints. If I delete the point named "1" I can export without problems, as soon as I add one, it crashes again.

Ok... so for all our characters with image points... we delete those, fix the collision masks, then put them back in?

Is this a known bug? Or just one of those 'feature' things? =)

I had a look at the tracker. It is reported and still open:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2931401&group_id=207820&atid=1003219

So I would say it is a known bug )

Yeah semi-known bug, but defiantly not a hidden feature.... yet.

I think Davo had kinda planned on having it set so the user could edit the image point list.
