  • Hey - I was trying this tutorial and I ran into the following problems.

    1) About halfway through the tutorial, when setting the camera flags, you mention "Backcam" and "Frontcam" as a value of Camera - but the private variables for Camera has ForwardCamPoint. You switch Front and Forward cam once again as the tutorial continues. Are they seperate elements? I might have missed something.

    2) Which i might have been able to figure out what you meant, but i couldn't get your .cap to run.

    I get the error messege reading: " (Error with loading: expecting class (CLayout), but recieved () )"

    3) Random Question: Is there a reason why "Camera" is in red? Isn't it just an empty sprite that's width 1, just like Forward Camera and Back Camera?

    I had another question but i completely forget it! I'm not a true beginner but I'm in that ball park. Thanks for your help1

  • i've been trying to work around the sound issue but still cant figure it out.

    basically i'm trying to stop the stage select song and start another song on a new layer.

    are there certain types of music files that work better than others?

  • cool, thanks!

    lets try it again then:

    It looks like the layers work when everything is run!

    I was wondering if someone can help me get the 2nd mp3 to stop playing (the stage select) when a stage is selected.

    thanks for all the help

  • do you know any other free file host maybe? I'd gladly use something more reliable!

    I'm also trying to convert the mid file to an mp3, as i was having difficulty pausing the sound.

  • Thanks! It worked...

    but...

    2 problems emerged.

    1) It works in "debug all" mode, but crashes when I try to run the layouts.

    2) I cant seem to stop Select.mid from playing.

    I appreciate the help though!

  • I looked and it looks like the keyboard/mouse is inserted, but still cant seem to make a event condition for an object to be clicked. My click creating an object and hoping the two would collide was just a workaround

    Alright, I'll try to upload the .cap file but I'm not sure exactly how to do that! It doesn't look like I can add attachments. I uploaded it to Mediafire and you can access it at this link:

    To learn more about construct, I'm making a fake Mega Man game, using sprites and screens. Please let me know your advice!

  • Alright, so I'm new, and this might be an easy problem.

    I'm making a stage select. I have a background image with the stages, and have created unique sprites that are basically white boxes on top of them, with the opacity lowered to 0 so that they're not seen.

    I have the mouse set to always show, and on each click, create a small object (again a small white box with 0 opacity, because i couldn't figure out how to make an object react when it was clicked.)

    In the event editor, i entered On Collision between the two objects, system: go to Layout 2 with transition "None" lasting 0 MS.

    But when i test it out, the layouts dont change. I moved the opacity around, even made the objects solid, but the layout stays the same.

    Any ideas?

  • i'll try these out today. Thanks!

  • And also, if there was some sort of sheet where you could alter the order of your layouts.

    As for my first question, if I clone a layout, the event sheet will not copy.

    Is there something like a global event list? Does that make sense?

  • I was wondering how to copy events from one layout to another.
