Title: Cant get character to work?
Post by: on Mon 02/08/2004 00:37:18
Hey, I have read the tutorial and is working with it, but when it tells me to test the game, from what I understand there should now be a character that I can move around. For me, this aint the case?

I'v got backgroundpickture, and set the whole picture as "walking area".
Dont want to get stuck this early, the progg seams alot fun!

Thanx

From the AGS editor's Game Options menu, make sure the option for:
"Don't automatically move character in Walk Mode" is Un-Checked (not selected). Also, from the Characters menu, make sure your player character's "Start in room" number is the same as the room you have the game start in that you want to be able to have the character first appear in.

Go through the beginner's online tutorial step-by-step and you should be fine: http://www.agsforums.com/acintro1.htm

ahh, done that already :)

but i found the "fault" now anyway, just started the new game with "default" instead of "empty" :p

Well well, now I can go on from this!
