Does this plugin allow multiple frames for each instance ?

[quote:2tdyxs15]You can do that using a sprite distortmap setting U&V to tile. No collisions of course.

thats very interesting. Sadly i don know what U&V or distortmap means

could you explain or make a tutorial?

i was thinking about background that endlessly scroll, or is looped in animation.

that would be very handy

Dravenx posted something about animating a tiled background :

Have you read this post about saving to 'ini' files?

http://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1721#p12302

Have you tried the 'Examples and Tutorials lists'

Plenty of examples under 'Map editors and others' and 'ini files'

Good luck.

I think you may have built that with Construct r1.

That release had a bug affecting the platform and physics behaviour.

See the release notes for Construct r1.2.

I tried your cap and after about a minute, i got a window error!

Hope this helps.

Cheers, just deleted it.

Try this : you need a text object, and a global variable called 'tickssofar'

+ System: Always (every tick)

-> System: Add 1 to global variable 'tickssofar'

+ System: Every 1000 milliseconds

-> Textfps: Set text to "FPS: "& global('tickssofar')

-> System: Set global variable 'tickssofar' to 0

This is not my creation ( i can't remember who posted, so can't credit them)

(should be on newts snippet widget)

I came across this website that claimed to have a portable version of construct :

http://portableapps.com/node/27025

Has anybody tried it, and does it work?

I downloaded it, but i am a bit weary of running it incase it messes up my current 'legit' versions.

I hope you guys at Scirra don't mind me posting this, im not trying to promote it.

heh

I was hoping there would be a lot more interest, but to be honest, I'm having a hard time thinking of anything new to add.

Great idea, i downloaded it but like you say there doesn't seem to be anybody adding stuff?

It might be the internet connection thing putting people off.

If this was a construct app that stored and retrieved stuff from say an ini file it would propably be the most downloaded thing.

You might be trying to get browsers to do something they're not designed to - there are many security measures for safe browsing that probably prevent you launching EXEs. Why not use Classic if that's essential?

The fact that i can link to web pages, images and youtube vids is just what i needed anyway.

Classic not an option for this because of the DirectX installation issue.

Thanks for your help...keep the updates flowing.

Cool !

Does it work if you export an EXE and run that? I would not be surprised if browsers prevent you from launching EXEs (even the Construct editor) though, because it would be a security risk.

Did you try the file:/// protocol as well?

I uploaded the exe file to dropbox, when i clicked the link it just downloaded the file to my downloads file (in preview)

Same thing when i exported the project and tried again.

"Did you try the file:/// protocol as well?"

Still trying to work this out, i downloaded the wiki page to study, bit of a brain block, but i will keep trying.
