  • Does anyone know why the iPad does not play sound? I have the mp4's uploaded to the website as well as the ogg format.

    iPad no sounds whatsoever, on the iPhone4 the background MUSIC loads but no game sounds.

    Here is a link to the game below: Sound works on PC but not on iPad.

  • Thanks so much theubie! It worked! Yes all I need now is to figure out why sound does not work on the iPad and im golden!

    I assume for a platform-style game a similar convention would be taken?

    What specifically would I put so that a player on a platform moves to where i click on a touchpad?

  • Thanks but I am so new at this not sure how to do it. Did you see my code I attached? If you can perhaps tell me specifically how to do it. I can create a global variable its just a matter of how to make it work with the player object im lost.

    In addition, I don't get sound on my iPad. I have uploaded the ogg and mp4 files as well.

  • I designed a simple non-platform game where a plane orients toward a monster and when you use a touch screen and touch a monster the plane properly orients toward the monster (Touch.X and Touch.Y) however when you release off the touch pad, the plain goes back to a weird fixed angle rather than staying at the last angle oriented toward when touching the screen?

    2nd issue, I have an original iPad and the sounds do not work. I have uploaded it properly and both .ogg and .mp4 files are on the apache2 webserver on a linux server however it works on the PC but sound does not work on the iPad.

    Here is the link to the source. Please help! Thanks!

  • I also have the issue with the iPad no sound. In addition, I have a simple shooter game and the player on a non-platform style game, points in one direction I have it set so that Touch.X and Touch.Y is set to player as long as I am touching the screen the player points toward where I touch however when I release the touch it goes back toward its original position rather than staying at the angle of the last touch.

  • Another question - on a platform game,

    How might I make the background cycle so that when the player reaches the end of the tiledbackground on the right it restarts the player so that the user sees a continuous infinite scroll? The player also is not able to jump.

  • Deal! Thank you again. Your very thoughtful and helpful. You help encourage new programmers.

  • Wow that is great! I have one final question on this project. Since it does randomize which is perfect! Is there a way, once you reach all the questions asked that it will end the game with a final score?

  • Oh im sorry about the tracks. I will take another good look at the ghost shooter tut.

    I again appreciate your help on the trivia i look forward to the ajax example.

  • There is quite a bit that I have there on that site kevinyoutube.com most is made for commercial licensing however I do have other material. You can sample on the site and let me know what you like and I will send your way.

    As far as retro, its hard to say I have a particular track in that exact genre type however some of the older tracks have some of those aspects.

    I wanted to design for facebook as well however I cant find any affordable space as you need SSL https and a dedicated IP etc all. That part is frustrating.

    I appreicate you making an ajax example as I woudl like to make a trivia game. I made my first Construct game kevintown.net under the kevinwars1.0 folder. Its a very simple basic shooter game.

    I wish there was a detailed tutorial on the ghost shooter game as well. i would love tosee how that works.

  • Your very helpful and I again thank you! If i can offer something back to you since your developing the ajax version with the score function. I write instrumental music, you are free to use any of it license free in your work. The entire catalogue is at kevinyoutube.com and I can email you the tracks you like.

  • Thank you again! The new version loaded the project. I will check it out and I very much appreciate your help! Is there a way to create a global variable to make a score?

    I assume I can add up to as many questions as long as I dont go over 100 events?

  • I tried to open the Capx file and it wont open as it says its from a newer version greater than r114.

  • That would be great! I will take either. I appreciate the effort and look forward to seeing it! It is much appreciated as I am a new designer and want to thank you much.
