The LoadGame function

[Kalladdolf]

Is it also possible to load ge files with the loadgame function?

If not, could this be made?
The reason why I'm saying this, is cuz then you could even make your game demos with the loadgame function,
so others can understand your demo (wouldn't be much use if u only posted your .exe and some .dats)

yes the load game function is great any one answer the Question plz plz..

[Kalladdolf]

and what I fogot to say, is:
it must certainly be loaded in the game mode (not open it to edit )

well, I think that wasn't necessary, cuz I think makslane already knows what I'm talking aboot.
But s.o. without brains might think this makes no sence...
but it does!!!

u mean u play a game u save game and closed the game and u open game again and load your save game! RIGHT

[Kalladdolf]

no, it doesn't work like that.
for example u got an exported .exe .
u play it.
load game function means:
it closes your current .exe and opens another one.

The question I'm now having if makslane could make it also be able to load .ge files.
got it?

[Spidy]

you mean ged files? it can

[Kalladdolf]

it can???
Great!

[Spidy]

thats great

[Kalladdolf]

Hold it right there!
I tried it but it doesn't work!!!

[Game A Gogo]

Do this:

Code: Select all

LoadGame("Game.ged");

it will work.
If the game is exported, it will remove the extension, I think it still does it.

I thought u didn't need the file ending...
so that goes only for geds?


thx btw

My friend make a demo, but is lag... In his old computer. He said if he can "LoadGame"... Like Load Pictures, sounds, Grapics, And others. Same as Cavestory. Wonder how it work? My Friend said he needs the code.

For example you have 2 games data, data1 and data2
You wanna load data2.ged when you finish data1 right?
And you dont want if anyone could open data2 without open data1 first right?

Make variable called "stage" save in "data" group, in data1 and data2
When you wanna load data2, put this code in data1

Code: Select all

stage=1;
saveVars("data.dat","data");
LoadGame("data2.ged");

And then in data2, in CreateActor of any actor :

Code: Select all

loadVars("data.dat","data");
if(stage!=1)
{
    ExitGame();
}

Soooooooooo........simple right???

This is slightly out of topic but does the LoadGame function work for -bat and -com files?
