Did you finish the demo?

No I never did. but I will eventually.

Well the problem is still with the intro.avi file. So it's either missing Direct show codecs, or you are running windows7 or windows8, if that is the case try running the program as windows xp in Administrator mode.

@realgaming if I might make a suggestion. 1 Delete your existing ZMA folder and all its contents 2 Extract the ZMA.zip folder to the root directory (usually drive c) 3 Replace the intro.avi in media\video\menu folder with the new one dailoc has provided. 4 Replace the Credit.avi in media\video folde...

I like it as far as I got so far. Shooting range is good and the food store. Can't work the elevator yet of get the rifles, but given a bit of time I'll get there. I will enjoy playing it. The idea is good but I think it could do with the lighting sorting a bit, it's too bright for the atmosphere yo...

I don't understand why other computers encounter this problem. Most people won't have Divx codecs on their pc's. I only spotted it because I don't have Divx on this pc. You can convert the avi files to the uncompressed or older compressed format using the free program VirtualDub from sourceforge. I...

I did delete the Intro.avi and IntroMenu.avi, and then I did copy rfsplash.avi and renamed it to Intro.avi and IntroMenu.avi. But it still shows me the error message.

intro.avi should be all small case. Or is that just a typo?

Doh -- thats it. I found it the first time round just forgot what I had done before. My short term memory is starting to fade it's only a couple of years since I played it. Age takes it's toll on the mind as well as the body.

OK lads after a lot of work I managed to get it running on my machine. The problem is the file format of the intro.avi and the MenuInto.avi files they seem to be non standard avi files. Here is a work around:- If you replace both those files with the rfsplash.avi file, that is delete the old files i...

I downloaded your demo and ran it. It works fine. One problem though I killed all the skeletons collected all the collectables and had 100 health points but when I try to use the moument it keeps saying "Maybe they aren't all dead yet" but I can't find any more enemies to kill. I seem to remeber the...

Logic gates are "and" , "or" , "not", "xor" mathematical functions. The gates can be added from the editor. they are explained in the help docs.
Steven I think it needs more than the gates.

Would you be able to explain what your refering to by "terrain" and "shells of buildings I was making an outdoor level with houses etc. I udsed StaticMesh for the terrain and just the outer walls of the buildings nothing inside them just empty boxes with texture on them. I then built the real rooms...

It sounds like a good idea, enemy makes contact with the player and depending on the amount of damage done sets the teleport target to a specific floor, then activates the teleport. I am almost certain you could do this by scripting but not fully sure at the moment. I will need to give it a lot of t...

I had to make the same changes to the exe Hi Steven, I was about to make that suggestion but you found it youself. I am running Windows 8 on one of my Pc's (I upgraded from Xp and had that problem with a lot of programs). I must download your demo again and give it a thrash or two. It was good fun ...

Welcome to the forum ChainedFlight. Sounds like you have some good ideas there. Have you downloaded the free e-book at http://www.realityfactory.info/cms/inde ... umentation yet? It is a very good starting point for learning RF.

I would like to make one suggestion, and I say this from experience, if you are placing rooms one on top of the other, actually make each room a separate level. It will kill the frame rate if you have stacked up rooms. This is very true. I had problems with this also. I did some experiments and fou...
