nope Amayirot. False culture ;)

It's a snippet from a screenshot of the trailer. No idea where that fading line is coming from... ^^

Well just do a darker, more shadowy version of this (very atmospheric and moody but maybe too dark for some users) background and put it in the room as a second background frame (or more versions to have a smoother effect). Then change the frame, timed the way you want it. This should give the illusion of a flickering lamp. If you want to do a little tweening, i'd suggest the tween module 2.0 by Edmundito. There you'd need to set the other backgrounds as non-clickable objects behind all other objects. That way you can play with transparency and even tinting.

Happy trying :)

ethnic is a good idea... but not title-wise

Better don't underestimate Poland. They gave Germany plenty of problems in the past...

Congrats Cassie!!!



You so deserved it! It simply was (almost) flawlessly programmed, very well designed and fun to play - all wrapped in 100% eye candy. Therefore, without a doubt, the best product of this month ;)

These bugs broke my neck, I guess. Thanks for the four people who voted in my favour though! 8-0
I am really glad, you liked my first ever released quick shot adventure game that much, to give me your vote. (nod)

Be sure...

*humming the Terminator tune*

I WILL BE BACK!
Jump! Jack! Flash! 2.0 is coming soon with a slightly extended (which means properly concluded) story, a save function (thank god!), a custom inventory bar and a nice little main menu...

Wow. This European Championship is amazingly unforeseeable! What a prediction disaster these last days...

Oh yes! Thanks for clarifying that for me! Now it makes perfect sense.
Maybe you should add in the manual, that this statement addendum is necessary for checking if a channel is playing. Just writing at help article AudioClip.play: "This command returns the AudioChannel instance that the new sound is playing on, or null if it did not play for any reason." without linking the importance of this sentence for "IsPlaying-statements wasn't very helpful on it's own for me. But maybe I am just not a programming crack 8-0 (As if I didn't know that...(laugh))

Sorry to necropost, but this is my exact problem, I just don't get the solution.

I want to play a sound if the cursor is over a hotspot. Of course it should only play once while on the Hotspot, so I need to check if it is already playing.

First I did this

Code: ags
 
if (!MenuSounds.IsPlaying)
  MenuSounds = aEngineStart.Play(eAudioPriorityNormal);


But it gave me that weird null pointer reference error at the first line.

Now with trying the thing you guys mentioned in this thread and checking if MenuSounds != null before the first "if",
the clip won't play at all. But why? Does this mean the audiochannel MenuSounds (a global variable) is always null if not played? ???
