  • For us with bad internet even five megabytes is much to download. <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle"> But I guess it's a new era and for us with bad internet we just have to accept it.

    I've always (and still do) have had bad internet. This is nothing new.

    At some point (when C2 will be stable and an official release) maybe there will be updates contaning only the exes and files that need to be modified.

    But for now, as a beta release, it's easier support-wise to have a single package with all the required files at once.

    Also, as far as updates and informations on those goes you can always click the "Construct 2 new releases" checkbox in your "edit my profile" page.

    It sends you an email (to the adress you setted) each time (and only when) a new release is out.

  • I kinda agree with Instant, this topic is better situated in the open topics section.

    And GSPforChrist I see the reference, but no sorry, this song did not come to my mind while reading the tut :D

  • Also from release 6.0 the extension system has changed in such a way that new updates will be made easier.

    I also use firebug, and it's like one of the first extensions to be updated.

    In fact, it was even updated 2 days ago, whereas FF got updated today only.

  • Cool video. This is a construct-classic creation though, you're aware of it, right ?

    I remember having played the "mech" guy (downloaded as a full exe).

    I don't remember that there was a .cap out of it though. And it probably stands in the "your creations" section of the forum.

    Apparently, those graphics belong to the person who made this game and who chose not to share them.

  • dengue

    Or look at this topic http://www.scirra.com/forum/creating-an-exe-wrapper-poc_topic44572.html which allows to make an exe wrapper.

  • You do not have permission to view this post

  • You have to install the PathFinder Behavior.

    Also I must admit I did not thought about free edition, the capx contains 5 layers.

    I don't know if this will prevent loading or not.

    Let me know.

  • Tokinsom: I think you missed the "Import sprite sheet" function (In the animation frames window, right click on the background of the window, not a frame and then click "Import sprite sheet")

    This automaticly will import frames out of the origin file according to the width and height of cell that you set.

  • Welcome Basseman.

    There is no "tutorial" written for the physics behavior (yet) but you can check out a few examples in the C2 folder "examples".

    The examples starting with a "Physics -" prefix are pretty self explanatory.

  • In every case I clicked "Yes" to

    -Construct 2 appears to be installed on this computer. Do you want Setup to uninstall the old version? - but I think that shouldn't affect version in a different folder.

    Actually I think it does make sense that it affects the version in a different folder, since, apparently, it is this version referred to as "installed on this computer".

    Have you tried to force an install and answering "no" to this question ?

    It probably will work.

    -I forgot, it also erased Kyatric's pathfinder plugin

    The pathfinder behavior is not (yet) a part of the official package. You still have to go and grab it from its topic for now.

  • Thank you very much all of you for the kind words

    <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • It's a cool game, it's fluid, it's not that easy and it is a nice "time-spender".

    Good job and congrats to all the team, keep us informed with your next projects.

  • Welcome back.

    Although you are not strictly a beginner I advise you to read this tut/article that might help you make your mind.

    To answer quickly your first question C2 isn't up to the functionality of Classic yet in the matter that it isn't as eye-candy, and less plugins/behaviors are available right now.

    But you have to consider also C2 as a different tool than CC.

    If you are aiming at a "tiny" browser game, C2 is already up for the task and might surprise you.

    Just download the free version, check the "example" folder and browse the forum too.

    There have been already many C2 examples/wips posted and you can already make full apps with it.

  • Is that using a negative size sprite in the layout view? It should prevent setting a negative size with the set width/height actions, since canvas doesn't support negative sizes.

    I followed the steps Gonzdevour decribed:

    + Create a sprite

    + Set its auto mirror/flip property value to "Auto Flip"

    + Set the size property from "128, 128" to "-128,-128" (no message preventing it, negative values stand in the property window)

    + Launch a preview, application stays greyed/white background; firebug raise the error described earlier.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • For Construct 2, check the Beginner's guide to Construct 2 written by Ashley, the developper of Construct 2 himself. You can also follow up with this video serie showing how to port the game 1945 in C2.

    + More tutorials and articles have been written for C2 since the first version of this article.

    + You also have a folder "examples" in the base folder of C2, covering quite a few basics (and a bit more advanced) areas of C2, its plugins/behaviors, ...

    Extract from this tutorial

    Concerning the "legend", it's already there.

    In action/expression/condition windows, when you click an element there's an inline description explaining what is the purpose of the element you clicked.

    Same when you set an action, clicking a parameter field will display a line of explanation.

    (check the section "Inline help" in this tutorial with screenshots)

    I strongly suggest you to take a look at the examples in the C2 folder, it is a true gold mine. You may try to tweak them (make a backup copy first) but I first suggest you to try to understand how they work, and why they are coded the way they are, what's the logic in it.

    Then you might consider start your own project.
