  • I do like some of these, but generally suggestions go onto the suggestions graveyard platform (there's a sticky post here) .

    Ahh I joke, Scirra do look at the suggestions platform, but I do wish there was a more engaging way for suggestions to be handled.

  • It may be good to get a website to have a reliable link to your privacy policy.

  • Perhaps next update which might be next week.

    You could go back to the latest stable version if your build is urgent, but you might need to fiddle with your project file to backdate it to work with the latest stable.

  • No prob, I'll do that next time.

    Thanks!

  • You really are a wacky toaster.

    Props to you for experimenting and confidence to accept a job offer with no experience like that.

    Construct offers the timeline stuff and Construct is heavily used as a replacement for Flash games online, and Flash was always known for its timeline animation stuff. It does have parallels to flash that would make you think there might be a "render as" option some day.

    But, as you know, its a game dev software first. Hopefully you get the results you need.

    If you need further help, I could attempt to help with a 4k screen, and I could try shadowplay or OBS to record. I've not had great luck with recording C3 stuff in the past though, but I need to figure it out anyway for the inevitable day I need to create a trailer!

  • Very quick post: If you open C3, add video plugin, then preview - The preview will not load.

    I'll post a more thorough bug report if "New Project > Add Video Plugin > Preview" is not causing the issue for others.

    My main project has Video objects (thanks for the Playback Rate addition!) so I cannot use the latest beta for now. Not a major worry, just was interested to try out the new features!

  • Wow this is a great sounding solution that has been needed for a long time, thanks for all the work put in to this!

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Try changing your app version to 1.0.2

    The error seems to indicate that you cannot have more than 3 digits in your version number.

  • I guess this thread is about rhythm games now lol.

    DigimonFuzion10 Are you new to making games? I think there are bigger challenges ahead beyond the initial "creating arrows with tails". For example, if you have a 4 minute song, then you probably don't want to have your entire chart loaded at once, because you might have 1000+ arrow and tail objects existing at once, all moving, all being checked for keypresses. This might make your fps drop below 60fps on lower end computers.

    I'd recommend using an "array" to store all your arrow data, but arrays might be a challenging thing to learn about if you're new to making games, but I highly recommend learning about them - you could read the Construct documentation about arrays here. Arrays can store data and are good for lists of objects (a rhythm game is basically a list of arrow timecodes, how long the tails are, what arrow key it is. An Array can store all of this information). You could then use the array to detect when to spawn arrows in, so that you only have about 5 arrows existing at any given time. This means you have much more room for performance, like having FNF characters in the background and more effects and stuff.

    I suppose you're only having a bit of fun though, as you are making a FNF fangame - But if you find that you LOVE making games and you want to improve your rhythm game in the future, then consider learning about arrays!

  • You do have to preview again, then click "Reload All".

    I agree with an option to combine "Reload All" into the preview button - I often click Preview, go back to my NWJS window, and don't realise that I haven't clicked "Reload All", even after months of doing this!

    There's this page that has shortcuts, apparently SHIFT+F4 or SHIFT+F5 will do it.

    I'd love to change this into a 1-key shortcut, but hey maybe AutoHotkey could help there.

  • I use remote preview to test in NWJS every time I use C3, reload all works as expected every time for me.

  • If its supported on all browsers and has some benefits, then I find that Scirra are usually interested in things like this, so maybe!

  • I recently had a possible bug when using OR with a few "System > Compare Variable" conditions within the event. I debugged my project for a while, trying to understand why something didn't work, and I remember thinking "maybe it's this OR event" and I split the event up so that it was no longer an OR block, and it fixed the issue. I moved on and forgot about it until I read this post.

    Might be related, not sure, could have been my own mistake!
