Title: When testing game, player character and another character don't appear.
Post by: cdypoore on Sun 12/12/2010 01:14:32
When I try to run the game, the room loads but the character doesn't appear. What is this problem? I used the blank template, and I can't figure out how to import my custom character. The most that I know is how to import sprites. Is there a way to use custom graphics for characters? I think that my problem is that I have no graphic for both characters, but I am not sure.

Follow the tutorial in the manual.

I did read the tutorial. I got the character to appear, but now it would move with the mouse, but wouldn't move when I clicked. I'll work on it in the morning though.

Have you seen the video tutorials made by densming?

Two parts that might be relevant to you  (though you should probably go over all of them).

Sounds like you still need to make a walkable area. For details watch the mentioned Youtube tutorial. Densming's tutorials are a bit outdated in places, but they are still a great help getting the general image of how to make a game.
