Hi guys,

I'd really like to start having a play with C2 and was wondering if there's some sort of help file / manual? I realise that builds are coming out all the time but is there something that goes over the basics?

One thing I'm stumped on is how to import a sprite.

I insert the sprite object,

MS Paint pops up,

I load an image into paint,

save it,

close paint

and the sprite is empty.

It's this sort of basic thing I'd like to know about. Any help would be appreciated.

Scirra Re-Construct.

I would have thought an .exe would have been as standard (as that's far and away the most common) with other export options to follow. At the moment, I'll wait for the exe export option.

Re-reading it properly I think you might be right.

Just wanted to say thanks for this! I've learned a lot without having to ask 101 questions.

Sorry about that PixelRebirth. I did a search for 'pdf' and this was one of the many threads that came up (I've downloaded the pdf version of the wiki and the Python commands which I found through searching) but didn't realise the date of the last post on this thread.

Anyway, thank you for the pdf link, looks like it's exactly what I wanted.

Being a 'newbie' to Construct myself I too would like to see some sort of pdf file as I like to read printed stuff and have them to have as reference.

Right, my turn...

The name's Andy and have been interested in game making since the good old Spectrum days (Paw, GAC, 3D Construction Kit, and of course 'speccy basic' ahh...) Having worked my way up to an Amiga500 I got myself AMOS and tinkered with that.

Now that I have a PC I've been through a number of game maker's, including:

Game Maker

DS Game Maker

ADRIFT

Inform

MMF2

AGS

FPS Creator

Dark Basic Pro

and now I've just come across Construct (literally 2 days ago!) and from the demo reel video it looks to be a great development tool. I apologise in advance for all the questions I may ask but just point me in the right direction and it will be greatly appreciated!
