Guys now I fixed the load crashing, but THERES A NEW PROBLEM >.> for some reason, it wont change the animation of the stupid background >:[

The code for the background is:

Code: Select all

if (DOLOAD==1) {
 
switch(BG) {
        case 0:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "SCREEN", FORWARD);
        break;
        case 1:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "Grass", FORWARD);
        break;
        case 2:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "water", FORWARD);
        break;
        case 3:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "clouds", FORWARD);
        break;
        case 4:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "rock", FORWARD);
        break;
        case 5:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "space", FORWARD);
        break;
        case 6:
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "dark", FORWARD);
        break;
           }
           DOLOAD=0;
               }


And I made an actor to tell me what "BG" number is when the load starts, so WHY THE CRAP IS IT NOT WORKING >.>

it says it's "2" like it should be, but it doesnt change animation. Even if I have on the code, a simple "if (BG==2) { change animation... }" that doesnt even work!! WHY

Is there any chance that you are loading the variables after the switch(BG) code has executed? If that was the case BG would always be 0 when this code is run, that would also explain why it doesnt change but your debug text actor does.

Nope, its afterwords O-o

Okay, then assuming that the various animations exist okay there are only a couple of possibilities. When this code is run, either DOLOAD is not equal to 1, or BG is 0. Try looking back through your code to see why either of those variables might not be as you expected.

I tried erasing the if part for DOLOAD, to see if it works anyways, in draw actor even. And still it failed. I made a text actor to tell me the value of BG, and sure enough it was 2 after loading. However the background remained the same for some reason.

and what about DOLOAD?

just before the switch code try setting BG to 2 and see if that works, if it does then it means that when the case is hit BG isn't set correctly, if it doesn't work it may be that the animation(s) isn't set up right.

Code: Select all

BG = 2; // forcing BG to a value to confirm that animations are set up
switch(BG){...

Ill try that now

LOL DUDE!!

"water" needs to be changed to "wateranim" OMG LOL

You've got it working?

Yep, it was the animation name O.o

It's often the way, something silly that takes forever to spot. I've done it plenty of times m8

I guess this is caused by being in such a rush and all, you tend to overlook things.

That happens to me also..
With "Runners" I had problems and I didn't find the reason why player2s' animation didn't work.
Then I found out that I had wrong animation name, just like you.. xD

lol its so frustrating xD
