Hey all. I'm from Poland. I can't speak english too good. We don't have any websites about AGS in Poland. So I need your help.
It's my problem:
I drew my characters in MS Paint to my game and I don't know what I should do with them. How do I import them? I don't know too how I can use my background (room) (Drew In Paint).
Tell me something about it,give me some tutorials...
Help me
In the room editor, use the import button to import room backgrounds. And for characters, you need to import the pics in the sprite manager, then make them views in the view editor, and set the views you made to characters in the characters pane.
thx, but
In room editor when I import my background , it is too big. I want it looks like it looks in Paint. In paint it was smaller than I import it to room edit
First I must import character in Characters Editor. It must be ".cha" (not ".bmp") How can I change from .bmp to cha.
QuoteAnd for characters, you need to import the pics in the sprite manager, then make them views in the view editor, and set the views you made to characters in the characters pane.
What size is your bg? If you drew 640x400, and try to import it to game with res set to 320x200, of cource it is too big! ::)
How can I import it to Sprite Manager?
Go to the Sprite Manager, select a folder or create a new one, then right-click in the right part of the window, and select 'Import new sprite' from the pop-up menu.
I know I know I did it yesterday begore your last post, but thx a lot. You helped me. If I have a problem I will tell you about it.
I still don't know what I should do in View Editor?
And my picture (character) who was on white background is on black blackground?
I know what I should do in View Editor!
I don't know why my characters is on black background (it was going to be on white)
Eh... exuse me? On black background? In the game? Or in the editor? and... I think it shoud go transpearent.... or?
may be yur importing the sprite using grab entire image and leaving the top left pixel as setting the transparant colour?
try putting one black dot in the top left of your sprite image and importing it again...im probably off beam ,but i can see that that might catch me out ..
Hi there!
You are from Polland... I'm Greek, so what:P? I suggest you should read the tutorial that comes with the program, download other tutorials and visit these forums regularly (you don't have to post, just read them to learn from them). I am a newbie as well, but I've been working with AGS for a week and I can do loads of great stuff now. It's very easy to learn, as long as you want to.
Gotth,
Do you still need help? If you do, feel free to ask questions. That's what we are here for. What Peepwood said is true, there are a lot of useful tutorials and other reading materials. However, it can be frustrating when you are just starting out.
One of the most common mistakes peopl make with AGS is that they imagine that things are more difficult than they actually are. Keep trying and things will soon start comming to you more easily.
