Could we see the script, so we could say what's wrong?

HI,

i even tried a basic :

@S
EGO: "Hello"
MERCHANT: "Hello to you too"
return
@1
EGO: "what's your name ?"
MERCHANT: "mark, and you ?"
stop


even this didn't compile, it gives me an error on line 5.

Hmm, did you create the dialog option in the editor or just put the script in? Silly question I know, but that's all i can think of.

I'm sorry for the trouble,
but i solved the problem.
i worked only with the script itself, not through the GUI,
and i thought that this was enough, as it turns out, I HAVE TO also define the options in use in the appropriate dialog box ,and i tried to work on the source only.

in any case i found out about it now, so thanks ,
