Thanks Dapeeper

Thank you, I love zombies.

I'm a not a visual artist/drawer, with barely any experience with drawing software. With that in mind: may I ask you how you made the zombie (graphics wise)?

Here's a quick tutorial regarding the graphics:

Couldnt get the file smaller due to graphic content (note: im rubbish at tutorials!)

Anyone need a Zombie Character for a game?

I made this example for a game, but it never got finished (again)

Feel free to use, modify or whatever.

Thanks tulamide.

This is a list of the Particle simulation options:

Simulation Settings

20=Acceleration

21=Gravity

22=GravityAngle

23=Grow

24=DisplayAngleTurnspeed

These are the choices available in Construct:

The Action option for line 24 is missing.

Hope this makes sense?

"Anyway, the above is a very easy to solve issue, put it on the tracker and hopefully here are also reading people who are working on updates to Construct 0.x "

Whats the 'Tracker', i assume its a post for bugs? How do i go about reporting this error.

WOW! sums that that in one word.

Glad you sorted it. .I cant take the credit though, and I still dont know who posted the original example?

I have been trying to build a particle testing tool that will enable me to 'save' the objects setting's to a 'ini' or 'text' file. The only problem is, 2 of the particle object's setting dont seem to be working correctly ?

Here's a screenshot:

When i try to alter the value settings for the above, it changes both of them ?

Thanks in advance.

If you create the Star system objects using a loop (indexed to the number typed in the edit box) Each one will have its own unique private variable.

Here's a cap :

1, Click the 'generate' button.

2, Click on each Star system to display its unique number.

Hope this helps.

P.S The Sprites Objects you are using are way too big(1027 x 768)(the download is over 5 meg), Why dont you cut then up into smaller tiles, if you dont the game will always run slow.

Error with the link. says the cap doesn't exist?

This is a screenshot of the events that control the ship:

i improved the ship movement, and added in collisions with the asteroids. but it is still not rotating the way i want it to.

it is turning, instead of rotating.

is this something that just has not been added to c2 yet, or am i just using a wrong method?

I just found this capx file i downloaded a couple of weeks ago. Its a simple asteroid game that somebody posted(i cant give them a mention because i can't find the original post)

Note, Some of the events are disabled, so you will have to enable them.

Check out the ship's movement!

Hope this helps.

By default, xaudio2 has a limiter active which makes sense but affects the sound being played. Try the following:

1) While only playing this one sound, switch off the limiter and see if it still crackles.

2) Open your wav-file with some sound editor and select the first milliseconds (ca 25-50 ms should suffice). Then use a fade-in on that part. Save it and try again with and without the limiter. Does it still crackle?

I had the same problem. Solved it using tulamides example:

I removed first couple of spikes. (everything before the red line)

Also make sure your sound doesn't overlap on loop.
