I'm using Vista. I've the AGS resolution set to 320 x 200, and the back ground file is the same. The color setting is 16 bit. Toying around I noticed that even when using the default empty 'Main Background' the picture appears distorted when played.

Hello,

When beginning my game the starting room doesn't generate correctly. Instead of my background the character appears against a multicolored mess of pixels that faintly flickers like a broken TV. What could be causing this? The background file is a jpeg if that helps.

Thank you. I had accidentally altered the default character's starting room. Your comments deduced the issue.

I am in the very beginning stages, and haven't even worked with characters. Creating from the guide it advises creating a room first. I had figured that the AGS stock character would be by default the character used by the program. I haven't set a value determining which room the character enters. Do you believe that's the issue? If so, how would I go about fixing that.

Hello all,

I'm starting to experiment with AGS for the first time but I've already hit a wall. Every time I attempt to upload my first room
a message reporting a compilation error appears; it states "The game is set to start in room -1 which does not exist". From what I can gather I have followed the tutorial guide perfectly, and I'm not sure where I went wrong.
