  • If you mean by a full html5 project, then no, there is no way to match exported html 5 to the event system.

    I plan to make a game with cut scenes. I read the video part of the manual already. My problem is, I can't seem to tell Construct what video to use. I created a video in the layout. I then imported an .mp4 file which is compatible. Then I added the event System --> On start of layout. Next I added the action Video --> Play. The strange this is, after clicking "done" a "Parameters for Video" didn't show up. Now, how on earth is it supposed to play a video if it wont let me tell it what video to play? I clicked "Run layout" and as expected, nothing happened. I just want to tell it what video I want it to play and get it to work upon starting the game. If anyone can answer this, please help! Thank you.

    Have you put the video's filename into the Video Objects property section? You don't add it through events.

    So for instance, after importing a video into your project files called "myvideo1.mp4', you would then change the property firld of the Video Object that says 'H264 source' to "myvideo1.mp4" (no quotes).

    Does this work?

    This has been covered numerous times and is found easily via search.

    This will only work as long as you haven't made use of any new features after r206, obviously.

    Summary:

    1. Go to the project file. If it's a .caporj file, skip step 2.

    2. If it's a capx, unzip it (capx are just zip files basically).

    3. Now, open the caproj file in a plain text editor.

    4. Look for the following string, minus quotes: "<saved-with-version>". It's only a few lines down from the top.

    5. You'll see this tag has a 5 digit number; it's the c2 version padded with 2 zeros (so, r212 will look like 21200). Change the first 3 digits to match version you want to revert to, i.e. 20600.

    6. Save

    7. Double click .caproj to open within C2

  • Are you hosting the exported game somewhere?

    If yes, what errors are showing in the browser console?

    Remember, you can't run the exported HTML just by clicking the index file.

  • Maybe set the variable using the 'Left' expression?

    Ashley, I can understand that and I'm willing to collaborate, but it has a little bit too many rules and I can not understand why it needs to be closed and make people do it from scratch all over again instead of allowing editing it, feels very disrespectful and causes people to spend unnecessary time on it.

    ... and yet you are more than happy to continue to flout the bug reporting guidelines, thus wasting Ashley's valuable time? Is your time more valuable than his?

    Far too many pointless bug reports are posted and Ashley is only one man. How do you think he feels when users continually flout the guidelines? Frustation probably isn't a strong enough term.

    If everyone followed the guidelines straight from the off, then the whole system would work more efficiently.

  • People only seem to answer the 'obvious' questions and legit questions such as this are ignored.

    Good luck.

    The number of people who actually try to offer help is not large to start with, and the ones who can answer questions such as this even fewer. Saying your question is being ignored is just a childish statement without any basis or justification.

    If someone can help, they generally do, given time.

  • You could also have given your trail effect sprite the fade effect. It would automatically fade out and destroy itself then.

  • More than likely a graphic driver issue.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Everything is in the manual and also a separate BLOG from Ashley. It's unfortunate to have wasted so much time.

    [quote:13l6vlg1]TMX import

    When importing from Tiled, Construct 2 currently only supports a subset of its features. What it does support are:

    Orthogonal (square) maps

    Source image with optional margin, spacing and a single transparent color

    Multiple layers of tiles (note a single Tilemap object represents a single layer of tiles, so when importing you're asked which layer to import)

    TMX files using XML, CSV, base64, or zlib-compressed base64 data

  • Much obliged, sir.

    Can I install contruct 2 in my PC and my notebook with the same license? I have the personal one.

    If you check How Licenses work from Ashley, you'll see you are allowed to install it on as many PCs as you like, as long as you are the only one accessing the licensed copy.

    [quote:3p166hs0]Individuals can use their license on as many computers as they like, as long as they are the only one who uses it (see Using your license below).

    So go ahead and install

  • Moredeth

    I have the same error.

    just upgraded my old laptop to windows 10, installed construct 2 and got the same. (and my graphic driver are up to date)

    This is a closed bug report. If you think you have an actual bug then you should make a new post following all of the guidelines.

    Regardless, I reckon your problem is with your system rather than C2. Drivers for Win 10 are hardly upto date, and the OS itself can hardly be called stable. I know of dozens of people who have uninstalled Win 10 already, but each to their own.

  • Takenurstuff

    Much more information is needed if you want effective help.

    What version of C2?

    What OS?

    Where are you trying to save? (Windows doesn't normally allow saving outside of the User profile folder structure)

    Does the same error occur when trying to save a built-in example?
