  • X3M - google chrome wouldnt even let me download it. warned me of a virus.

  • This wont help with the loading times, but i read a trick somewhere someone suggested about waiting for the game to be "playable" before going to the layout.

    Basically you add a check that watches the frame rate of the game. (while its loading its going to be really low), but once everything is loaded and the game starts to run smoothly, THEN you hide the fake 100% loading screen.

    So its loading everything behind it, and only once its ready to play smoothly you show the player the game and begin.

  • When using the "initialize tween" action is there any way to type a variable in th target fieldor system expression?

    right now the only work around i can figure out that works is to add 2 additional actions (set target x, set target y) after it.

  • Can someone please post a link to the Easetween Mod file? I can't find it anywhere and i'm looking for it for an older project of mine.

    thanks!

  • or just use a second AND condition "is on top"

    it will only pick the top most object

  • Here's another great resource for picking good color schemes for our games.

    http://www.palettable.io/

    simply "like" or "dislike" the colors it shows you and it dynamically finds you a nice palette of colors

  • chrisbrobs - Does this only work on a sprite? or can it be applied to a whole layer edge?

  • yeah i'd be suspicious of a few of these people claiming to have good rates. They dont have any forum posts, and only show up to say this? yeah, they are just trying to get you to use their services. dont trust them.

  • Have you tried a different recording program?

    I use this one for quick captures

  • you computer isnt powerful enough to both screen capture AND play the game at the same time? Old laptop?

    also, there's gotta be a smarter way to organize those events. seems like you are doing a ton of un necessary actions in there.

    Strobe - There's a lot of "bland" looking game because they are mostly being made by people who are new to game development and most are not artists or game designers either.

    If more people had a solid background in art first, then start making games i bet we'd see a lot more 'pretty' games. Its also very hard to properly "finish" and polish a game. most people get bored and want to explore new mechanics and concepts instead.

    Its not the engine that holding anyone back, its how people are using it.

    Attach a Capx

    Capx: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B11Xu ... kVQbW1pOTQ

    Description of Capx

    Single group with a bookmark attached to it.

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • 1) Make sure your "Bookmarks" Window is visible
    • 2) Change name of group while bookmark is active again

    Observed Result

    Result: Bookmark name in "Bookmarks" window doesnt update unless you toggle the bookmark OFF/ON

    Expected Result

    Name in Bookmarks window should update upon changing the name, similarly to the way variables update in an event sheet automatically when changed.
