  I only just upgraded from Windows ME to XP a year or so ago. Don't think I'll be bothered to get this yet.

  I've setup my camera similar to the area example .cap you posted.

  Although when I 'reset' my layout, the camera stops working?

  yeah I guess I could just do that +on ground, +not overlapping solid at offset.

  I just thought it might be nice to add though

  I've sometimes noticed that with normal .wav files too (I don't usually use .ogg), it seems to sometimes randomly play it "muffled" on occasions.

  Did you run the full installer, including the "optional" DirectX updates? (which are badly named because Construct actually requires them)

  I ran the installation, of the things that came with construct - I'll look for those other optinoal DirectX ones though.

  Is it possible to set the Z of the spritefont? It doesn't seem to get the Z from the sprite. Or is this not really possible?

  I can't get construct (or any games) to work on my brother's XP machine, I wonder if it's only because he doesn't have a graphics card.

  you dont have to make awesome graphics for a game to be great. If you can make simple coloured shapes - that would be better than bad graphics. Such as games like Dyson, you don't have to have amazing complicated graphics for it to be good.
