Okay, so I know that I'm going to seem like a total retard in asking this...
What need to be done to use an AGS template/ how do you get it to work? (specifically, what is it that I do with a ".agt" file).
I'm sorry for being such an idiot.
Put it in the AGS main directory, and create a new game. :)
Thanks for the reply, but...
Well... That's kind of what I'd thought, but that doesn't seem to be working.
What I did was download some ".agt" files.
I then placed these files in the AGS folder (where agsedit.exe and such are). In particular, I tried using the Broken Sword one and the Blank Game one (both of which I found at: http://www.freewebs.com/skimbleshanks/templates.htm).
From there, I start AGS up (version 2.52, build 2.52.297, if it makes any difference) and select the "Start a New Game" option and press OK. I enter the file name and press OK.
I'm guessing that there's something else that's painfully obvious that I should be doing, but I guess my brain's not working or something.
EDIT: AHA! I now realize that for some reason I'm not getting the "Create New Game" templates dialog box. Unfortunately, I have no idea why this is hapenning. Is this a matter of the version of AGS I'm running?
2.52? I think that version came before templates were implemented. Try updating to 2.6.
Yes, templates came in with version 2.55.
