does the "displayspeechbackground" command shows talking views?
I have a timer that triggers some npc's to talk on the background, but they don't show their talking views!

...and:

CJ, you're OK,
CJ, you're not portuguese,
And even if you were,
You would code with ease!

I made it myself

yes they are scaled, doest it make a diference?

I've done that, but I think it only goes for objects, I guess I'll have to crop all my sprites.
Btw, don't you think it's a good sugestion for a future AGS version?
thanks scorpioros

kill him


sorry, only a bad joke, send roger(ego) to a room with, let's say, a game-over screen, then hide the player character(on the settings editor) and make it a no-return room or with options to restart or/and load a previous game.
that should do it

hello to all,
is it possible to turn the transparent parts of sprites (npc's, objects) to not-clickable?
if not, there's going to be a lot of croping!
thanks

thanks synthetique, I will probably use them and Ill credit you for this

 you just have to write diferent dialogs for each situation, like:

  A speaks to C run dialog 0
  A speaks to B run dialog 1
  B ....             A .......         2
  and ...

hope this helps

how many characters are there?
use this script function to determine wich character is the playercharacter:

SetPlayerCharacter(char1);
  or
SetPlayerCharacter(char2);
 or
SetPlayerCharacter(car);

Django Reinhardt, anyone?

do you know that he had a problem with his harm/hand? Great musician!!!
also, does anybody remember John Squire (Stone Roses)?

CSKA has also "bred" Krassimir Balakov, Jordan Lechkov(remember his winning goal against Germany in the 94 world cup?), Dimitar Berbatov(Bayer Leverkusen), Stilian Petrov(Celtic BTW will they win tomorrow?), Martin Petrov(Wolfsburg) and many, many more. If we say that the Bulgarian international footbal team consists of former and present CSKA players, we wont be mistaken.

Congrat Vel,
btw, Balakov played for my team in portugal, Sporting Lisbon, I saw him play live two or three times, and what a great player he was/is ( I think he retired this season didn´t he?).
I remember his free-kicks, one of the best left-footed player I've ever seen playing!!!

use hotspots and regions for triggering what you want to happen

what do you guys smoke in america?

Heh, I'm in Australia.

ooops, sorry, I was just joking. Btw, Im in Portugal ( Europe? next to Spain?)

hehehe, you sure have some crazy stuff going on on your heads!
and it wasn't me!

what do you guys smoke in america?

hi, I think somebody did a gui like the one used on LOOM, I don´t know  if it is an open code gui, but maybe you could ask around and maybe who did it could help you
hope it helps

that´s what I tought

My guess is this, it is possible and when you manage to script the light coming from the flashlight, you´ll only have to set some x,y positions, but then, I dont know how to do it. I bet I only made you more confused

draw a region next to the box and when ROGER "steps onto it", make it display message "I better check that box"

hope it helps

"Please don't feel like Scotch was picking on you Miguel",-  SORRY Scotch, I was on a bad mood and Im really stupid and very slow with AGS.

RickJ: Yes I am using this, the thing is, I normaly have scrolling rooms on my projects but I always have ROGER set to visible. When I tryed to make a scrolling room with a spaceship flying from on side to the other, I set ROGER to be invisible on the editor and did the move character command (for the spaceship) but it didn´t scroll, the spaceship just disapears out of sight.
Maybe the problem is not ROGER visibility but then that´s why I posted in the first place
thanks
and sorry again SCOTCH

EDIT: now I know that only the player character scrolls rooms, I changed ROGER view to a spaceship instead of having a spaceship character. yes it was easy
