Objects wont show up

Dancegamer · Fri 06/08/2004 20:00:40

The objects wont show up when I test the game. Could someone help me out?

Pretty vague ...

But make sure, in AGS, "Object is inititally visible" is checked for each object you've added.

That, due to lack of details, would be my first guess.

sorry my lack of information was not meant to annoy you. Yes i have it checked

There a few things you can check:

1. The object baselines
2. Have you actually placed the objects on the BG?
3. Have you imported graphics?

I didn't use a baseline my object is imported and I have no idea what a BG is. I'm hopeless :

You didn't annoy me

You just didn't give us much to go on!

Have you created any walkbehind areas? If so, check to make sure their baselines are set properly as objects will disappear behind them if not!

Also, a BG = background!

Any luck?

I didn't make any walkbehinds but my object is up against the background.

$:-\$

Soo ... in the editor (AGS) the objects are showing up when you place them in the room. But when you play/test the game, they aren't there?

Dancegamer · Mon 09/08/2004 21:44:28

exactly

Darth Mandarb · Mon 09/08/2004 22:02:44

That IS indeed interesting ... we must be missing something obvious here.

I suppose you could try adding a 'Run Script' in the 'Before Fadein' part and turn the objects on manually ... see if that works?

ObjectOn(0);
ObjectOn(1);

etc.

Barring that, would it be possible for you to post a screenshot of the editor (showing the objects) and the room (in game) where they're missing?

I can't copy and paste the picture in the message box is there another way to do it?

This should cover just about everything you need:

I put the link for the demo hosting in there 'cause if the screenshots don't help, you might need to upload a demo of the problem so somebody can see what's going on. I'm sure it's something simple ... but we'll figure it out.

ok just go to the website it's there

I'm assuming that's an 'in-game' screen, and there's supposed to be an object on that desk structure?

Dancegamer · Sun 15/08/2004 22:53:00

yep

try adding a baseline
