  • For the video, could you test if this c3p file with short video works for you ?

    It works, turns out this is simply an issue of needing to add the file extension .mp4,.webm to the file names.

    So this works a bit differently then sounds where you only need the file name and not the extension. Good to know.

    Thanks lennaert!

  • No idea if my bug is similar to yours...

    but I am having trouble using my Ajax...

    I use AJAX and it works, however, I'm just sending data from the project itself rather than an external source. Not sure how you have yours setup.

  • I believe this is due to the nature of the construct 3 preview mechanisms, once exported and installed/hosted, they work.

    I figured this might be the case so I exported to Windows and no video showed (Set to autoplay). Unfortunately I can't check for errors on such an export.

    I'll test again just in case I missed something.

    However, if it as you mention, this should at the very least be stated in the manual (unless I missed its presence), and at best, some sort of workaround should be available so that an individual doesn't have to constantly export their project just to see how their videos are setup.

    Doubt this is a bug and more so something wonky with my specific setup since no one else seems to be talking about it.

    Any idea why I'd need to modify CORS policy just to play a video from a video source within the project itself?

  • I thought the CORS policy would only be relevant if using an external sever to pull in data, am I mistaken?

    I simply want to play a video using the sources from the project's video folder:

  • 1. To place files in the forums you need to first upload them to a file hosting site like dropbox, and then paste the link to the file.

    2. I have Discord, what's your tag?

    3. For 3rd party plugins I try to follow a general rule: If the 3rd party plugin can be replicated with a mix of events and plugins that are officially supported by the engine, then I will generally refrain from using the 3rd party plugin due to the risks of using a plugin that may no longer be supported by its creator.

  • Here's a video (I record on a wide monitor so I recommend watching on 4K quality else it will probably be blurry):

  • Not sure how things work in C2, but in C3 there is no drop down box to select the effect.

    The effect is selected based on the string value you place in the effect box.

    If the string value matches an effect present in the object, then that effect will be referred to for the parameter index and value options.

    Parameters work the same way, there is no drop down box.

    If the parameter index is set to 0 and the value is 50, you apply a hue of 50 to the object.

    If the parameter index is set to 1 and the value is 0, the object will have 0 saturation.

    If the parameter index is set to 2 and the value is set to 120, the object will have a luminosity value of 120.

  • Parameter index 0 = Hue

    Parameter index 1 = Saturation

    Parameter index 2 = Luminosity

  • I was first interested in seeing of any other users knew of a way to show the functions parameters before I reported this. Your response suggests I should.
