  Hello,

  I created global variables and used them in nearly every event. Now i want to move them to another layout, so I copy & paste them into the new layout and afterward I delete the global variables in the original layout.

  But it still deletes all events with the global variables in it.

  How to move global variables without losing all events?

  Thank you for your help!

  I want to select the language in the options layout. If changed all texts should be changed and the language should be safed. How to accomplish this?

  I suggest creating two layers - A collision layer using sprites (giving you access to any weird shapes, plus sprites can be stretched to cover any area) and then a second layer with all your graphics/scenery on top.

  This might work for little games, but for a "real" game (no short arcade game) with 100 Levels (each 20000x768 pixels) and complex terrain it will drop your fps to zero. Atleast I think it will, because sprites need more resources than tiledbackgrounds.

  1.) I don't think so.

  2.) Yes.

  Hello,

  How to play 2 sounds simultaneously?

  I got some soundtracks looping in the background. If the player dies I want to play a little sound effect, but it does not play, because another sound is playing already.

  You can only have one audio object, so how to solve this problem?

  The weird thing is that it works if I start playing 2 sounds in 1 event (for example on start of layout). But if 1 sound is playing for a while and I want to player another simultaneously (for example by pressing a key) it does not work.

  Your help is appreciated.

  I am wondering if there are any rules on kick starter? Many projects have way to high goals. What if they just use $2000 of $10.000. Is there no transparency? Do they just get the funded money on their balance? It seems kind of insecure. This question keeps me away from backing projects.

  Thank you, I wish you and all other members of the community a Happy New Year too.

  I think you are definitely right, but unfortunately I am not an artist, so it is more like trial & error than creating an good animation on purpose. I wish God has blessed me with an artistic vein <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  So if an artist has a good day and want to help me I would really appreciate it, contact me per private message :)

  Thanks for your advice. The animation of the character is the hardest part of developing a game <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  I switched to Google Chrome now, but ogg still does not work. I converted it to wav and it worked.

  Thank you all for your help!

  I use Firefox.

  Is there a reason for using Chrome? About 100% of all .capx files, which I downloaded at the forum, tutorial section or scirra arcade uses Chrome for the preview.

  As Chrome came up there were some scandals about spying and saving information of the users, so I stayed away from it.

  You could use textboxes and selected the custom font. You can select every font, which is installed on your computer.

  You can open more than 1 project at the same time. So just open both projects and copy & paste. You can copy & paste everything (objects, events, families etc.)

  After you copied everything, you can close the second project by right clicking it in the project bar.

  Thanks for your help.

  But how to use the array to change the language of different objects and not just type 5 lines in a textbox.

  For example 3 different textboxes.

  And how to change the image of a tiled background with the language.
