Hello all,

This is my first post. First I want to say that finding this site was like a dream come true. From what I've experienced so far, AGS is a fantastic app and I can't wait to become even more knowledgeable about it.

My question is concerning the LEC GUI. I actually copied it from the Demo game and put it into my own little test app. I've been playing with it and other things and so far, everything seems to work great. However one minor problem has occurred that I can't for the life of me figure out. Whenever I interact with something using the LEC GUI, all the buttons of the gui become selected in a very ugly and distracting way. I apologize for such a lame description but really I'm not sure how better to describe it.Ã,  Here is a picture that will hopefully give people a better idea of what I'm talking about:



This only occurs while the game is responding to the user input, by displaying a message or something. Once the input is gone, that highlight that you see in the picture over all the buttons dissappears. Here is how it normally looks:



Also, if anyone is willing, I've uploaded the entire game (very tiny since there is just the one room and all) and would love someone else to take a look at it and point out what is wrong if possible. To get the zip file just go here:

Everything is there that you should need since I just zipped up the directory itself. Its only 637k I believe. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very muchÃ,  :)

PS - Pay no attention to the fact that I'm using PQ2 graphics and sprites. I was just playing around learning AGS and have every intention of creating my own original artwork.Ã,  :)

Look at the first tab in AGS and then for a setting that says: "When interface disabled:" and from the list select "GUIs unchanged."

Thank you so much. Exactly the answer I was looking for. I thought it was something in code and completely passed over this setting. Sorry to waste everyones time, thanks again :)

Well, just be glad you didn't do something like posing this thread in the tech forum.  You would have made some people pretty mad if you had done that.  Anyway, welcome to the forum, and if you want, you can try looking up Proskrito's LEC templates.  They're pretty authentic, and easy to use.  Also, I'm writing a LEC GUI (Secret of Monkey Island style) so I can probably also help you if you have any scripting problems.  And as for ripped graphics, people mostly don't care if you do it for a good cause.  Making a fan-tribute to a classic game (as long as its well done) is highly acceptable. ;D  Just make sure that you cover the copyrights and stuff in your credits so that it's legal.  And don't listen to me.  I probably don't know what I'm talking about.  No one else listens to me... 8)
