Hey, I want to make a game intro such as the ones used in Larry Vales 1 and 2 but i dont know how. I tried animating the background but I can only have 4 frames. Im a newb so go easy on me and if you know of a tutorial that can help that will do too.
Thank you
you could put a next button
You have to use scripting if you want to create an intro like those, as you mentioned, in Larry Vales 1 and 2. Or like those in most any AGS game with an intro. I suggest reading the manual and learning how to script and probably completeting a small project or two before you go into the task of creating a whole intro sequence. Although, they shouldn't be too hard if you have any prior programming experience (and even if you don't, the AGS language is fairly easy to learn). Animating backgrounds definitely won't do the trick here, though.

nah, really, you a can make a simple intro and teh only scrip tcommand you need is Wait and NewRoom. check out the manual
but if you want to put a button that will lead you to do next page all you got to do is go to the paint file you put it in then put a next button go back to ags import background put a hot spot around it make the interaction player go to different room ;)
when i made my intro i found it perfectly good enough to just use the interaction button thing. Just trigger things in sequence without having to code, works fine for me! but i am also new to this malarky.
what the hell is this manual that everyone keeps talking about? do you mean the help file?
yes. its a great resource that answers almost every question if people are willing to read it. most people here have scanned it several times, especially before posting a problem. there are even tutorials in the manual. give it a check.
