How Do I Install Behaviors?
by Roger Cotton · in General Discussion · 03/31/2009 (9:32 pm) · 8 replies
This is a frustrating problem that I looked through tutorials and forum threads for:
In what folder do I place the Behaviors I downloaded thru TDN?
How do I install them after doing so, so I can see them in the Edit Tab when using TGB?
This is a fundamental task, and it isn't explained in anything I've opened and looked at; like the Behaviors tutorials page in TDN.
PLEASE help. I use so many other technical applications, and I feel like a rank newb not being able to figure this simple thing out.

Which behaviors did you download and try to install? Maybe they're too old and not compatible with your TGB version.

The Behaviors that are on the TDN Behaviors page. I assumed they were current.

I have no idea how old these behaviors on TDN are an if they work. Give me an example and I will test it here.

I've tried everything I can think of. Does ANYONE else know the answer to this issue?

You need to reload the project in TGB for it to find any behaviours, have you tried that?

I then realized that the Project directory I kept trying to use was one TGB didn't want to go to.
So, I moved the behaviors into the games folder in the TGB-desired directory in the Documents folder, and reloaded. Then, it worked!
Thank you all.

Matthew, I did that and found it didn't work. When I opened the Project folder, it opened up a folder in my Documents folder. It didn't have the behavior files in them, as those files were in another directory.I then realized that the Project directory I kept trying to use was one TGB didn't want to go to.
