PSK tutorial problem
by Damien Ilic · in TGB Platformer Kit · 08/05/2009 (10:25 am) · 5 replies
Hello,
So I'm going through the PSK Demo Tutorial thats on the TDN. I have everything installed correctly and followed the tutorial and reached the "Creating the Player" part.
I assigned the Spawn point behavior to the sprite, and changed the TargetType to pskActor and TargetObject to DragonActorTemplate (and the others mentioned changes in the list).
But when I click play scene the actor/sprite doesnt respond to controls or do anything, it simply hangs in mid air playing through the idle animation sequence.
Is there a step missing in the tutorial?

Damien, you should post in the PSK Private forum, you'll probably get more help there, I forgot that a public PSK forum existed!In any case, the answers you seek are here:
Quote:When you install the PSK, none of the original executable files are overridden. If you want to be able to launch your project from the editor nicely, you can do two things.
1. Replace the original TGBGame.exe (<TGB Install Dir>/tgb/gameData/T2DProject/) file with the one provided in the kit (<TGB Install Dir>/PlatformerStarterKit/binaries) ensuring that you rename it to TGBGame.exe.
2. When you create a project, you can copy the executable files into your project directory. You then simply need to rename the executable to the name of your project.

So using the new exe doesn't work? Have you physically tried to run the exe, or are you working from the Level Builder?

Is there someone who has got this thing working that can help me out, and provide me with how you got it to work step for step.
These are the steps I took:
System: Windows XP
1. Downloaded TGB Pro 1.74
2. Downloaded PSK Pro 1.1.1
3. Installed TGB Pro to C:/Program Files/GarageGames/TorgueGameBuilder-1.7.4
4. Installed PSK Pro to C:/Program Files/GarageGames/TorgueGameBuilder-1.7.4 (Made sure to install it in the same directory as TGB)
5. Went to the ../GG/TGB1.7.4/games/PlatformerDemo/ folder and opened up the "project" file.
6. When the project opened up I opened the "demoLevel.t2d" scene
7. Clicked the play scene (to see if it would run)
8. It ran, but the same thing happened ... the actor/sprite would just hang there in mid air, not responding to controls or do anything.
Is there a step in installation that I missed or did incorrectly?
