  • Hi, i am still new at using this program, and i JUST learned how to import sprite strips. Well i was having no problem doing such, but when i decided to delete a certain sprite and add in a different sprite strip, the option to add a sprite strip and other options were all greyed out. I clicked on it anyways, and it allowed me to add one, but then Construct 2 just froze. I exited the program via CTRL+ALT+DEL and opened it back up, this time on a new project. Same thing. Any ideas what i did wrong?

    UPDATE: Yeah it's not letting me add sprite sheets at all. I can insert new object, add sprite, but when i go down to the Animation Frame window and right click to add new sprite sheet, every thing is greyed out except Thumbnail Size. I click on it anyways...it still opens up the window to browse folders to add a sprite sheet. But when i do the whole thing just goes ape sh*t. It freezes up and when i click anywhere on the screen it just makes a ringing sound. I don't know if it's something i did, or it's a bug. But i do know it's super annoying.

  • Wow, thanks. I feel a bit silly, you made it look so simple. I swear i followed that tutorial step by step. I must have missed something, your right. I am actually a graphic designer by trade, and i heard about this program and designed as a hobby to try this out. Tried learning programming but, well i think i need to take a college course on that. Not something you can quite learn from a YouTube tutorial. lol

    Anyways thank you so much for correcting my mistake, and explaining where i went wrong. I wanted to beat my head against the computer screen. lol

  • Alright i think i did the whole dropbox thing right. :/

  • oh and forgive my poor grammar it's 3:30am here. So freaking tired.

  • Doing it all right now. :)

  • Ok this is going to sound stupid, but how do you do all that? When i say i a new, i mean i just downloaded this like yesterday and only spent a total of an hour on it so far. In the meantime i will try and figure out how to do the whole drop box thing, but just in case you read this before i figure it out, please let me know.

    And thank you.

  • Alright so i am really new at this. I am doing my best to follow the tutorials and i am on the second beginner tutorial on how to create a platformer. It's a tutorial using the Braid sprite. It's pretty easy to follow and i thought i was doing a good job up until i ran into a little problem. Once i pinned the player images to the player, and set animation to "standing" (as it said to do in the tutorial), i tested the layout out. Well the player would move, but all the animation did was stay still. I changed the animation to running for sh*ts and giggles and sure enough the animation was running in place. The i compared my screen to the picture provided and it's identical to what they said to do. Perhaps i am have a full retard moment. I don't know. But the character is not performing the way the tutorial said to. Anyone know what i am doing wrong?

    P.S. when pinning an object to another object (in this case the PlayerImages to Player) there is a set of options on my screen that don't seem to appear on the screen shot provided in the tutorial. There is the "Mode" option to set Position and angle, angle only, position only, etc. I left it on Position and Angle. Though it doesn't talk anything about this in the tutorial.
