  • I love this plugin so much, I feel obligated to show some of the things i've done with it—

    basically having each tile create a destination in copy of itself on top of a canvas tile the same size on a layer with that sludge pattern and have a source in image of a splatter pasted into canvas.

  • Ahhh this is really neat—I've been parsing through your .48 version trying to understand it—really clever—! Can't wait to look at how you have optimized it since then.

  • you know its been a minute since I used this forums—there used to be a way to dm or pm somebody on here but I guess not anymore :/

  • So I made a game using paster for these ink effects. A good example of what is possible with this awesome plugin.

    If anyone is interested in seeing the capx just dm me.

    Now time for a question... is there a cost effective way to measure what color is pasted into paster and where? I need a more precise way to measure where each type of ink is.

  • I had a feeling I would need to use an array. Just checking if there were alternatives and that first option seemed a little messy. Though honestly arrays offer a picking trickery all their own.

    Got it working more or less. Thank you!

  • So I want to draw a bunch of quads to a make a-- as you can see-- soft squishy floor.

    What is the best way of referencing lots of different points in the draw quad action?

    And this question might not make sense but, what order/direction is the quad drawn in?

  • Hey thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

  • I've looked all around and don't understand why gravity stops working when a physics object gets resized.

    This capx I made has one event. If you disable it the sprites fall like a normal physics object would. Any ideas? Is this a bug or is this just how physics objects work? I'm using r239.

  • Was there ever a feature added to this plugin to fill the polygon with a sprite or a texture?

  • I know how to rotate when playing on the canvas and everything... I am making a level that's upside down but also part of it is right side up... it would be easier to work on it if I could rotate the layout in the editor?

  • I want to reuse my foreground assets in my background and use adjustHSL to make them appear to be in the background... is this a bad idea? should I instead recolor my assets and add them as separate objects?

  • Problem Description

    When I attempt to open a layout the program crashes. This first happened on my big project but when I tried to recreate it with a brand new project I found that even in a brand new project, once I add a new layout and try to open it the program crashes. I can open event sheets just fine. Nothing has changed on my computer recently so i don't know why it started doing this all the sudden.

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    Open Construct 2.

    Add a layout and try to open it.

    Crash.

    Observed Result

    "Construct 2 game creator has stopped working."

    Expected Result

    I figured the layout would open.

    Operating System and Service Pack

    Vista Home Premium 32bit

    Service Pack 1

    Construct 2 Version ID

    r173 32bit

  • I found a backup from a couple days ago. Not too much work lost. I don't know what I did to make the game unplayable. Moral of the story is keep multiple backups

  • Try Construct 3

  • Windows Vista 32bit--I've updated display drivers and service packs-- I have since tried running the capx on a different computer but I get the same error message, so now I'm thinking it might be a problem suddenly in the event sheet itself, or maybe an actual bug in construct 2?

  • Recently reinstalled windows... suddenly my game won't compile and run, get this error message...

    Don't think it is a bug with Construct itself since this doesn't replicate anywhere else. My capx is ridiculously big. I am just wondering how to interpret this error message so I can find the problem. Since I reinstalled windows maybe there's still something I need to update? It was running fine before I had to reinstall windows.
