or stupid players could delete or move the video around and with this break the game. But afaik AGS just shows an ugly 'Videofile xy.avi not found' in the very basic message native to AGS and continues from there on. But using videos not compiled into the exe could also allow for some small 'mods' to the game, of course these could be fun or worse than anything you can imagine atm

Using programs on my PC to convert video to ogv didn't work that good, but using http://video.online-convert.com/convert-to-ogg did the trick for me. If you manage to convert to ogv that ags accepts with something else please let me know

I don't know 16bit colordepth is a problem contrary to 32bit colordepth but .ogv video plays good in AGS. I had problems with a black border on top and thus missing part of the video on the bottom though. But after counting the pixels of the black border and adding them to the bottom it aligned like intended. So even more fiddeling, but once you get it running it works. XVID in an avi container also works but cannot be compiled into the exe and has to be delivered seperately from the gamefiles and thus could spoil the game for too interested players. But please do it

sure, send me a pm, email or link the image here.

import into Photoshop
set all frames of the animation to 0 secs

if anyone want to contribute some nice music please contact me or CaptainD. Will probably post a recruitment thread in a week or so, depending on how it works out...

Bleed Runner?

Barbarella?

... but when I have some programming time again, I can give you a certain answer by changing the engine to always draw the grid on the screen. 

Why not add something like this to the editor?

I never played 7th guest but tb3. In TB3 the rules to the game were more consistent and it had more tiles iirc thus making it even more frustrating

This is not very consitent, corner click changes all adjectand squares and diagonally adjectand squares, middle click changes all directly adjectand squares and sides change only above and below squares. Have you implemented it in a way that it is always solvable? I'm always struggeling with always one piece not fitting But knowing these rules makes it winnable
Ever played technobablon 3? There it is inserted nicely into the flow of the game.

And so I also pass on

maybe if you would stop browsing the forums upside down it would be easier!

it's an interesting read and his pictures are really good!

Django Unchained?

You can try open game art or just use the google images as a rough pointer and draw your own backgrounds.

maybe someone moved stuff around on the dropbox?
try this link instead pls.

the goonies?

So do once only does excatly what it says it does! Just use a bool hasfiredthistime and set it to false in First time enters room.

So selling something is stealing?
I don't know the legal term for it, but it's probabyl something along fraud or so. The whole thing is kind of like in a supermarket where they have this huge sweetsbox with free sweets at the checkout. You walk there, ask: Are these sweets for free? The cashier says yes and you take them all. He will complain because it is expected behaviour to just take one or maybe 2, but legally he can't do anything about it and you could theoretically stand in front of the supermarket and start selling these legally obtained free sweets. The supermarket boss couldn't stop you from doing so (except that you might need a license for selling things on the street in front of his supermarket but I think there are places on the internet where you can bulksell steamcodes and noone ask unpleasant questions), he couldn't even invalidate your stash of free sweets BUT he can ban you from ever setting foot in his supermarket again. And this is what steam should also do, ban these assholes!
