  • Yesterday I was in a hurry so I quickly pressed save button and a soon as the loading bar disappeared I turned my pc off by holding the button for 5 seconds. I'm guessing that's the reason why it didn't save properly.

    I found all of the files however the caproj is corrupted so I can't open it

    Animation

    Event sheets

    Files

    Layouts

    Texture

    New.project.caproj

    New project.capx

    New project.uistates

  • Clean water is often considered a rare commodity in this scenario.

    Good Idea, but wouldn't it feel like the water should give health instead ?

  • Briefly about my game

    The game takes place in a wasteland few years after nuclear disaster. It's a platform game and the point of it is to jump across the platform avoiding obstacles and collecting something that gives score.

    Now that something would be coins, but I feel like coins would be the least important stuff in this situation. Should I keep coins as score or change it to something else ? Any suggestions are appreciated

    Hopefully I post this in the right section.

    I'm using free version and I'm already using 4 layers. This game is for my school project so I could delete layer with parallax effect to make the HUD, but I don't want my game look like shit.

    I can't post URL so I can't share my capx

  • Double post :/

  • bump

  • No. the number in parenthesis should be the layer number.. for example, the top most layer. probably layer 3.

    Every tick > Set Position > X=ViewportLeft(3)+32, Y=ViewportTop(3) +32

    The set position works now, however the HUD is not visible for some reason.

  • Have you tried the pin behavior?

    Otherwise,

    Every tick> set x position to x coordinate of ViewportLeft +whatever number of pixels and set y position to y coordinate of ViewportTop +whatever number of pixels

    cheers.

    I can't get it to work, should it look something like this ?

    Every tick > Set Position > X=ViewportLeft(10), Y=ViewportTop(10) ?

  • What are the other ways to make a static HUD without having a layer with parallax (0,0) ?

    If there are any of course

  • [quote:am64jqvy]

    Making a much smaller sprite with a gradient and just stretching it should work just as good..

    This is a good idea, I'm going to try it

  • [quote:2s1dq1d2]Considering an image that size would use up approx. 108MB RAM I'd suggest not using something that size. Also, few GPUs would be able to render such a texture size.

    Have you tried splitting it up into smaller chunks?

    The file size is like 2mb and yeah I considered doing that, but it would take me so much time and I don't even know if that would help

  • So I'm making the game where you basically climb up through platforms and the higher you go the darker it gets. Once the player goes to space I could make it completely dark and use small images, but I really want the starting look really nice and to do so I need to use huge sizes like 9000x3000 which makes the game lag. Any tips ?
