  • Well, perhaps not "server" but some issue on their end, not the user - that's all I meant.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Seems like the same issue as here (from two years ago):

    construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/general-discussion-7/cannot-enter-construct-editor-174661

    Same issue today, can't enter the editor - stuck on the preparing screen, etc.

    I'm pointing to the older topic because back then it was a server issue, and I wanted them to know perhaps where to look once again.

  • Thank you so very much!

  • I've read through the documentation but I'm not understanding. How do I point the text object at the appropriate animation to pull the graphic from? Is there an example I can please see? Thank you!

  • Actually, should I save my work in some other way? I'm just using Google Drive to do this, perhaps there was some issue with that, come to think of it.

    I don't know if it's possible but could I also use GitHub as a repository? It is more stable I suspect.

    Or should I save my game locally on my machine? Is there an official recommendation or something.

  • I had given up yesterday because it just wasn't working. Today I try again and it works fine.

    I'm happy about that(!) but I honestly did nothing different from yesterday in terms of starting Construct 3 and going to open my project.

    The only thing that's different is that the laptop was shut down and started again. Which suggests it is some sort of cache issue or something related to the continuous net connection.

    I'm sorry for any problems, I enjoy and deeply appreciate Construct (started with 2 and now using 3) and all you folks do to make building with it accessible.

    Thanks

  • I am having trouble opening my game as well. It worked fine last night when I saved. I tried to open today and I get an error. This was saved to cloud, so I was able to download a previous version that I hope will help restore my work.

    However the download of the c3p file gives me a zip file. Unzipping gives me everything spilled out into directories and a c3proj file.

    Trying to open this c3proj file doesn't work.

    Coming here to the forum and searching for the term brings me to this topic.

    And now I'm stuck again. I posted already in the bug section about the error. I'm trying now to solve around it since no response and this topic also isn't that helpful. I just want to open my file. It's there and saved.

  • I've been working on my game for weeks. Finished up some progress last night, saved the file.

    Today I log in, go to load it and it fails. Please help, this is very demoralizing and frustrating.

    I can't even access the file, so I don't know what to do.

    This is the screen capture showing my file there in the cloud, saved and time stamped from last night:

    This is the screen capture when I click to open it, this is the only error message:
