  • I have Sennheiser HD 650 headphones and am not much of an audiophile, I do occasionally notice differences that music sounds a lot worse on things like youtube and spotify though.

    Can't notice a difference at the moment with my game, I was surprised given how small the files were.

    It's great to have the option though, especially since I'm not doing mobile development, thanks everyone!

  • Thanks for the info, I suppose I can just encode them in the right format at the bitrate I need, I think they should pass through C3 without being filtered again.

    Yeah might be a good idea to have a setting for how compressed you want the audio.

  • I want to make sure the sound is high quality.

  • Thanks Eren 😃 This changes everything

  • I don't think you can, why not just use an Array? Depends on your purpose.

    For instance, instead of using multiple columns in a dictionary, I have multiple dictionary data files for the various Languages in my game. I just load the data I need into the dictionary, based on which language the player has selected.

  • You can also set the amount of times to be equal to the array.width (or height etc.), so that if you change the size of the array you don't have to worry about your code later.

    Yeah it'd be nice to see more support for tables in general. I see 2 options for the future, either:

    ♥ support CSVs properly so it's easier to use external editors

    ♥ or make more features for the Data editors in C3 so it's user friendly, moving closer to google sheets or excel in (e.g. sorting, moving rows/colums around, selecting multiple cells etc.).

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Try expanding the array so it has 500 cells.

    You could also do a "For" event, set it to go 500 times, then Compare the Cell's value based on loopindex.

  • I don't get it, what's your problem? You don't like it being X, Y, Z?

  • Unfortunately, I don't think there's a current simple way to go back and forth with Google Sheets.

    There is at least some basic data editors, you can copy and paste the data from google sheets to an Array or Dictionary data file in C3. Just go to the Files section in Project window.

    C3 stores the data as a json file, which you can download if you want to take the data back to Google Sheets (you can't drag select more than 1 cell at the moment in the data editors😭). I think someone made a JSON to CSV converter if you need to go back to google sheets.

  • Hello!

    I love the notification feature, but I don't like having to go to a seperate page to view them, it's tedious!

    A lot of the time the notifications aren't super important, but I have to waste time going to the page to see them. I'd rather just be able to hover or click on them like in Facebook and see what's there, without having to leave the page to see notifications!

    Thanks ♥♥♥

  • GeorgeZaharia If I'm understanding you correctly: the origin point should not be moving when you crop, that sounds like a bug, you should report that if it's not working right!

  • Thanks R0J0hound, and I figured out if I want to return an object to it's original size that's at parallax 60% and scale 60%, I can just divide the dimensions by 0.6!

  • If I have a tree sprite in a background layer that's parallaxing/moving at 60% of the speed, does that mean the tree should also be 60% of the size than if it were in the foreground at 100%?

    Hope someone understands how Z/perspective maths works!

  • Yeah Shadownaut is perfect, way better!
