  • Problem Description

    Upon starting C2, I receive a Check failure. If I hit Ignore and continuing starting C2, everything seems to be functioning properly. No changes occurred to C2 install/plugins/behaviors/etc. Removing 3rd-party plugins/behaviors/shaders from the C2 install didn't fix the issue. Rolling back to 227 solves the issue, but the strange part is I've been using 229 since its release and this issue just popped up today and is now consistently occurring upon starting C2, even with a completely clean install. I haven't updated any related software or my OS between last using C2 and when this issue started occuring.

    Check failure! This is probably a bug:

    ACE table: expression does not specify one return flag - did you specify more than one, or forget it entirely?

    Condition: return_flags == 1

    Yep, this issue is super-annoying, as is not being able to duplicate a tilemap object and change the tileset it's using (I know the reason behind this is "optimization" but not making it optional is really inconvenient for loading tmx files at runtime, aside from how little use the optimization is for desktop games). What I ended up doing was using the tmx importer plugin and having a few different tilemap objects available to use for the different tilesets on layered tilemap stages. You can parse through the different tilesets used this way and spawn different tilemap objects for each tileset. It's a bit of a pain in the ***** and this feature should be native to C2 (as well as being able to use one tilemap object with multiple tilesets), but it works.

  • Hi,

    We submitted the plugin coded by MadSpy through Scirra store early today.

    We are waiting for approval from C2 team.

    A description of standard version and basic version will be posted here and/or updated in the plugin package (and a tuto).

    A beta version for Linux is shipped in the plugin.

    Updates will be posted with support for nw12/13/14.5/15 (maybe this week...depends on MadSpy's speed to code these versions).

    Regards,

    Edit: digitalsoapbox we can't reply to PM due to low rep for now

    Awesome, great to hear! Hopefully they approve it soon, the feature is kind of a deal-breaker for those trying to make bigger PC games and if they're not going to include it, hopefully you can .

    Spriter also doesn't include mesh deformation in C2, and the functionality in Spriter itself is unfinished.

  • Yep, that works. Good call.

  • armaldio

    I'm trying to create a string to define the value to pull from the translation file:

    uppercase(Translate.GetValue(str("weapon"&98Bottles_144.menuValue), ""))[/code:2v7mozjw]

Where "menuValue" is the additional value to add onto the string that defines the translation value to be pulled. Doesn't seem to be working though, getting an error.

  • R0J0hound

    Yeah, I'd seen doing a normal build was an option, but I'd prefer not to have to deal with another toolchain. Thanks!

    MadSpy

    Thanks! That didn't show up on my forum search.

  • The game this arcade machine was built for was created in C2. Maybe give the How-to a read: http://www.studio-mercato.com/how-build ... e-cabinet/

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • Is there a way to prevent the devtools from showing in an nw.js build?

  • digitalsoapbox

    New update pushed to the repo.

    Now, $nl$ is replaced by a newline

    Enjoy

    You rock!

    Thanks so much.

  • armaldio Do you have any suggestions for getting multi-line translations to work?

    For example:

    "en_US":"'-Bulletpoint 1'&newline&'-Bulletpoint 2'"

    Where in-game the ' is replaced with ""

    Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work, and "&newline&" just shows up as part of the text.

    Without the plugin "greenworks" works.

    There currently isn't a way to use preview when Greenworks is included in the project, whether there's any events or actions referencing the plugin. I asked Ashley about this awhile ago but I don't think there's been any progress in getting it working properly. Like others, I've been waiting for Steam support for some time and I guess we'll just have to cross our fingers that the 3rd-party plugin MadSpy is developing gets out the door some time soon.
