Hi, after reading this thread and the help file i found this :-

"SetGraphicalVariable

Example:

SetGraphicalVariable("climbed rock", 1);

will set the interaction editor "climbed rock" variable to 1."


so couldn't he/i used variables instead  It would be allot easyer if i could give the Variables names instead of numbers.

( but i'm a little worried by the term "Graphical" what's that mean )

Isn't there a Tutorial for this ?

Has any body pulled the character graphics out of Maniac Mansion so you can see how the animation works,
I'm having real trouble diciding on how many frames i should use and what they should be like :-(

Hi, So far all the Tutorials i have found deal with Leisure Suit Larry type interfaces but how do you do a Maniac Mansion Deluxe type game ?

Any links,

Thanx

Hi,

Ã,  Ã, sorry to bring this up again but i ask yesterday about Web Based Tutorials for beginners, i only got one reply (before the thread was locked) which pointed me to a thread that was two years old.
Needless to say most of the links were broken.

So does anybody have any current likns to a good Tutorial ?

95% Of the Links are on graphic design, but theres almost nothing on the Nuts and Bolts of getting things to work.

Please Please Help

Hi,

i been following this thread, and was wondering how i can Remove the door object after the Animation ( and get it to stay got )

(i want the animation to finish before, the door is removed)

O.k. bare with me here, i created a Door as a charactor, and it swings lovely, but i just can't line the door up with the frame, i also have a Door object so i thought i'd be able to get the Mouse pos/Odject pos off that, but when i use them they don't line up, whats going wrong ?


(and am i doing right creating the door as a charactor ?)

You memory is pretty good, i was able to get it form that

Thank You 

O.k, I've created a couple of ajoining rooms, and i have a Door that disapeares when you use a key on it (crummy, but i'm new) what i need to do is extend the Walkable Area after the "Door" object disapears (i'll animate it later) But all i could find is "Room - Enable Hotspot".

So whats the best way of exstending the Walkable Area after an event has happened ?
