Exactly as i mentioned. Button sound is Music NOT sound....

Looks like they breath through the bottom

Just to ask... is aPsh actually in the sound branch.. sounds like you could have added it to the music branch of the audio tree?

Hi,i want to make a game like "who want to be a millionaire" so the game is all about buttons.
My question is how to make a button in AGS ? and when i aim at that button it turns to green(for example)
i got the 2 pictures one is (Start game"red color") and i got another one (Start game"green color)
so how to create a button and when i aim on it how to change it to another picture(color). Thanks.

For someone who knows nothing about buttons this could be a long journey if he wants to complete this type of game but I wish him the best of luck...

Creamy: Because of a lack of time and inspiration, our game will probably not see the light of day

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Maybe a stray ginger cat sneaks in for a kip and the pig wakes up, sees it and thinks it's a fox

Love the Background

Both I and Khris' code works.

Using Khris'

Code: ags

// in Global

bool wasOverButton = false; // Placed above function repeatedly_execute() 

function repeatedly_execute() {   

  bool isOverButton = GUIControl.GetAtScreenXY(mouse.x, mouse.y) == Start_button; // when the mouse is over Start_button
  if (isOverButton && !wasOverButton) aPsh.Play();  //   aPsh sound will play once each time whilst over Start_button
  wasOverButton = isOverButton;
}

Provided your GUI is not set to 'Pause Game when shown' then the sound will play.

This works...So make sure you add it correctly as shown...

Error (line 4): undefined symbol 'button3' means ags can't find button3 probably because it does not exist. My code only used button3 as an example.

Well, there are colors for each character.. plus the images have blurred the text..

What about darkish green?

Edit: I'v just tried it and it looks better imo..

will upload new version later.

cheers mate

Edit: New version uploaded

MOD: Game now released.

Agent Bond (007) has been sent for because the royal palace has been bugged by the Russians and is needed urgently.

Bond needs to undergo specialist bug training before he is allowed to start the mission at the royal palace and destroy all Russian planted bugs.

However, do MI6 have the REAL Bond or is it a case of mistaken identity?

Soon will be revealed as Bond's specialist bug training is being watched by M and agent Pettigrew.

Why use a high-tech gadget when a plunger will do

Gilbert may be right....

Check in help manual for: GetAtScreenXY

Examples in Global Rep Exec

Code: ags

}
  if(GUIControl.GetAtScreenXY(mouse.x, mouse.y) ==Button3){  // If over a gui button
   aKNOCK.Play(); // will play this sound when mouse over
   
}
  if(player.Room==3 && Object.GetAtScreenXY(mouse.x, mouse.y) ==object[5]){ // if over a room object
    aKNOCK.Play(); // will play this sound when mouse over

If the button is an object in room one then it should only show in room one and not two..if they are objects..
objects only relate to the room the are in.

Game progress: 100%

For reference

To set any gui to be transparent in its properties panel open up color and choose black or enter 0 in the color option for the background. The gui area will be magenta colour which is the transparency colour.

You should in the general settings set GUI's to display as normal else GUI's will grey out as is your GUI image..which is what was happening I believe.

I had a quick play of the first bit..

* Mouse image cursors could do with being bigger and look more like they are supposed to be.
* The player walks to slow.
* The fog could be well improved.

But it's in production...so just keep working on it..

Right...

Are we talking gui control Button or an Object?

As per Snarky

In the objects events property panel click interact and a function will appear in the room script.

Just add something like this as an example:

Code: ags

function StartGame_Interact() // AGS Adds this Interact function
{
player.Walk(oStartGame.X,oStartGame.Y+10,eBlock,eWalkableAreas); // player walks to start game object
player.Loop=3; // face object

// Animate object this like:
oStartGame.SetView(10) // or whatever view it is you have made
oStartGame.Animate(0,4,eOnce,eBlock); // will play loop 0 only once

// Do this like start the game etc
{

At least it's a start

Thank you for your encouraging comments

Blondbraid: I think the main graphics (backgrounds / characters) need to be new and not used before.

Blondbraid: I'm still a bit tired from making an entry last month, as well as working on my own project.

Come on... I'm almost 62

I have used the 'color wheel' for my game and whilst the rooms may look basic it's because I have been concentrating on actual game play.
