I'm on one of the getting started tutorial, "Making the view follow the actor". And having this one little error popup, when the tutorial starts to add the graphic of land; on to the actor. It's saying something like "If your Creating an Iphone game, the max frame size must be 1019x by 1019.

Show this message again?
Yes Or No.

Well I have to stop the tutorial in order to close out the message, and the Game Editor Crashes if I click on either one of the choices.

How do I fix this in order to continue with the rest of the tutorial?
More or less How do you turn off the waring. Currently, I'm not making any Iphone games(I will in the future But not now).
Instead, At this time I'm try to learn how to use this product, all the way up to an professional level, before I through any money at the product.

Any links, any help will be much praise! thank you for your time I hope you all have a great weekend :D

anyway to turn it off? Or to get at the Built in Tutorials. Like a different source.


Maybe there is a different version of GE? Like a fresh later build or something.

Btw I'm on a Linux Machine :D

OH I think I found it. The GE has an .ini file for basic configuration. It's a Root file some with me I just open it up in the terminal.
Code: Select all
sudo su
cd Desktop
cd Game Editor
vim GameEditor.ini

So within the file there is an line of code that says to show the Iphone frame size;  this will be shown as true, I just change it over to false. LOL I'm going to test it to see if it will allow me to continue with the TUT!! WOOT

And it worked!!

I also opened up the windows version of GE, under WINE(in linux). No wounder no one has the same kind of errors as i do. This program is more built for Window users.

After opening up under WINE, I can now do more and get more tutorials!!!
