Stuck frame?

[octochan]

Hey, I've just gotten started with AGS, and I managed to make a very simple character and walk cycle, but there's always a still copy of the character at the starting point. It's like a clone of my character that won't move or go away. I don't know what I did, because I haven't even tried to do any scripting yet. Anyone else ever have this problem?

Have you created another character in the character editor pane? If you have, you may have put him in the same room and at the same coordinates as the player character.

[octochan]

No, I've only made one character so far. The only other character in the game right now is the default cEgo, and it certainly isn't him.

Sorry, but why not? It sure sounds like it.
The other possibility is a room object.

What happenes if you set another start position for your character?

It sure sounds like it.

[The only other character in the game right now is the default cEgo.

cEgo, by default, spawns in room 1, which I'm sure most AGS users have as they're starting room. See if cEgo and your player character's starting room are the same.
And as Khris suggested, it may be a room object, though having it at an almost exact starting postion as the player character is unlikely without coding, which you've said that you've done none of.

Sorry, I forgot and changed all the graphics for cEgo to my character before actually making my character, so it was  cEgo that was stuck there. Derp. Thanks for the help!
