Hi guys,

I have been playing around with the GUI a little. I create a Gui and save it. But when I reopen the GUI Editor, I cannot find the entry for my "filname.gui" in the list. I placed the gui file in both "common/ui" and in the "T2D/" directory since I found all of the gui files there. But still no luck.


Also, How do I comple the guis to those .dso file. The same with the scripts how do I compile my scripts so that the source code is not visible on publishing. Is there a different tool for this? Or does theT2D.exe does it on first run?

thanks,
Rakesh

I would highly recommend reading this first.

Come back if you're still having any problems.

EDIT: The compiling of ".CS" and ".GUI" files is done when your run T2D. After running, you can effectively delete the ".CS" files (apart from the one in the very root "main.cs" file) and ship with the .DSO files only.

Thanks that helped a lot. I was looking for the documents on Editors. Where exactly did you get the Link from it. In future if I have to search for info, if there is a simple place where things such as these are grouped, then it would be useful.

Thanks,
Rakesh

If you look on the right-hand side of the screen, you should see a section called "Community". In this box, you should see a link "Torque Game Engine"; this is the official documentation page for TGE. Eventually, we'll have a similar screen for Torque 2D but, for now, you can find all the related material there.
