well i decided i would make my menu first and i am new to torque and was browsing through the resources looking for some sort of user account system where you can log in but allot of the resources i find have dead links. these are the ones i have tried.

and well like i said dead links. and if anyone around here could point me to some tutorial/resources on a basic account system that would be great i am not looking for anything too advance all i need is a means for players to log in and have it store/load a currency and what items the player has purchased/sold along with loading those items when starting the game.
on link 7514 though i would like to continue with that and just use that log in system because the code is there for me to type out so i can better grasp what douse what. but the link to the Array handling tutorial is dead so if someone has that still laying around and would like to share it that would be awesome.
Thanks in Advance

If you uncomment the content of the GUI file you should be able to edit it with the GUI Editor. An empty GUI file will give that message, and commented out == empty to the editor.

No it does not. Joining a game in T3D is pretty straightforward - there is no login or account verification built in. If you own a license you can modify the source to utilize just about any method you'd like to implement a login system, though. Most people favor MySQL or PostGRESQL solutions since they're not too hard to integrate.If you uncomment the content of the GUI file you should be able to edit it with the GUI Editor.

new GuiControl(MessageHud)
{
//other child components's block
};
in that case better exec that file in console.
and u will get the gui in editor's drop down menu.
no need to open that file in gui editor.

gui editor will show that error only if your gui file contains anything except this type of format:new GuiControl(MessageHud)
{
//other child components's block
};

and after going through that and before finishing i found guiJoinServerDlg.gui and on trying to open the file the gui editor i get a message, you have loaded a GUI file created before this version. it has been loaded but you must open it manually from the content list dropdown.
but its not in the dropdown. and upon looking at it through a script editor it looks like the entire thing is commented out.
so my question now is douse torque 3d already have a login/account system built in? and if so how can i get it up an working.
but ill keep cracking at it hopefully ill figure it out. and if all else fails im going to try an see if i can't get a programmer to do it for me for a permanent % of my royalties.
