  • Hello —

    This looks great I'll probably back to buy this and customize in a week or two. My daughter and I are learning Construct 2 now and I am busy submitting graphic assets and nervously awaiting approval for all of them. Your write up is really thorough and the price is great. I wish you every success with Tool Madness.

    Kay

    Thank you for the feedback! When you buy it, please let me know what you think of it.

    Best of luck to you too, with the graphics. Once approved, send me a PM. I would like to check them out.

    I skimmed through the post... I did not see this answer but I skimmed fast and might have missed it.

    Two things:

    1) Is your anti virus turned on? If so try turning it off.

    2) Is indexing turned on? If so, try turning it off.

    See if that helps. If so, fine tune the indexing and anti virus so they avoid your project files.

  • Hi guys,

    I have no issue copy and pasting a chunk of code with a local variable, but when copying or moving a function with a local variable into a group I get complaints about that variable not existing in scope. My only way of going around this is adding the local variable to the group, then move the function and then change the variable name to what it should be after deleting the temporarily made variable.

    Any suggestions?

  • hmott I do not have one handle, but its pretty easy:

    simply select the sprite you want

    use load from URL

    enter the BASE64 string as the URL

  • I was having a problem where you would inject the image and then it wouldnt update until you went to a different layout and came back....

    I just spent about 3 days trying to figure this shit out!!!

    Apparently you have to disable WebGL for this plugin to work... now i guess i have to take a performance hit for this

    ;/

    you can use the sprite load from url option. put the base64 string in as the url, and you are done

    Just installed Construct2 on my Teclast Air II. Runs very well but I have the right click trouble. Any tips on this without a pen?

    if you use a keyboard with it, you can set up a AutoHotScript to right click whenever you are pressing the screen and holding the control key.

    I have not found a solid "good" solution that allows full use of construct without a keyboard.

    I'm using C2 with Surface pro 3 and Windows Pc with pen tablet,

    both of them have pen and have a problem with the right click button.

    When I want to do the right click I have to do it with pen, and here is how to do it.

    1 hover the pen over the screen.

    2 pressed and hold the right click button.

    3 click and drag on the screen while holding the right click button.

    4 release the right click button on wherever you want to do the right click.

    that worked! thank you so much I can officially use Construct in full-blown tablet mode with no keyboard now. wahooo

    You're welcome ??

    Do you use construct on a touchscreen?

    I am finding I need to use my touchscreen docked in a keyboard in order to use construct fully. I remember seeing ashley saying somewhere that its hard to get the touchscreen actions properly....if you do use construct with a touchscreen, have any suggestions for using it easily?

    For example, I am finding I cannot create a global variable easily with just the touchscreen unless I copy and paste a previous global.

    EDIT: I can now press CTRL and tap the screen to right click. still looking for a solution to right click without the keyboard but this gets me further along (used autohotkey)

  • newlee

    holy crud! it was a small difference but it made enough difference to be more accurate when using Construct on a touch screen.

    thanks so much

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Has anyone (if possible) made the ui for construct more tablet/pc friendly?

    I'm finding using it on my windows 8 tablet pretty tedious - the menus and buttons are too small for a 10 inch screen

  • Since it's based on standards, I'd expect that this is because WP8.1 does not support it.

    Sadly, picking files on WP8.1 is atrocious to add in with construct. ive gotten it 80% working with a ton of hacking

  • Not sure if it is possible or not, but Ashley is it possible to have a file chooser for WP8.1? File chooser works flawless for windows 8.1 but on windows phone 8.1 it seems to not do anything
