Make sure your character is starting on the walkable area (Do this by checking the character's x and y coordiantes in the "characters" tab)
Check your character's speed too.

Also make sure you are on the walk cursor instead of the look cursor or something.

;)

Alright, I have done that but he still doesn't move.  :'(


Is the main background suppose to look the same as the walkable areas. That's what I did. Hrm....now as I see it, I can't use the line tools amd stuff under the areas tab.

Hmm... Check to see if your walkable areas are actually hotspots or something.

Make sure that when you draw your walkable areas that you are on "walkable areas" tab, and that you fill it in completely, and that your character starts on it.

If you're really desperate just fill in the whole screen with a walkable area and test it.

Or you can just start you game from the default template in case nothing else works.

Here's a site with a downloadable pack of backgrounds and characters and stuff.

It's called "Insta-Game".

I think there are some rules you must abide to when using it but I forgot them.Ã,  :P

And check the "Comments and Criticism" forum (or whatever it's called). They have a thread there with links to free stuff. Any more questions? And make sure you read the rules before posing, VII Toast! Especially the resources, like the BFAQ and the commonly asked questions (CAQ). :P
