Have Sprites Changed?

[Whilyam]

I'm following the directions laid out >here< but when I try to export my age, I get the following error:

sprite_error.png (10.19 KiB) Viewed 3641 times

Has anything with the implementation changed? I tried the sprite with and without the "sprite_flags" property.

Speeling error is a better description

"plViewFaceModifer" != "plViewFaceModifier"

If you feel inclined to fix it yourself, just add the second "i" to the instance on line 177 of alc_Classes...

Wait, alc_Classes? Are you using the new 1.5 release? alc_Classes doesn't exist anymore, it's been renamed prp_Classes... o.O

[Whilyam]

I've yet to upgrade to the new plugin. I'll try that now.

[Whilyam]

Nope. I've upgraded to 1.5 but it still has the same error.

"Your bug has been verified. We thank you for your submission. Please look for a fix in the near future."

Thanks for pointing this out, we've fixed it in the SVN trunk HEAD. You can download the updated file here (http://svn.guildofwriters.com/pyprp/tru ... Classes.py).

Hehe, looks like Whilyam is the first to use alcscript for this instead of the text properties method.

[Whilyam]

Actually, I used the logic properties. I assume that the plugin converted them.

[D'Lanor]

Nope, mine are not converted. I never had that problem with my sprite set in logic properties. Maybe it does if you run the conversion wizard but I don't suppose you upgraded from 0.5.

Well, it's a bug yes... or at least the thing being talked about farther up.

I got this error and was about to roast Hoikas alive (because this was around the time when he changed the file names and 'said' it worked) It turned out not to have been his fault so his life was spared.

The reason this bug hadn't come up before now is that people set the flags in the alc-script. You can most likely find out how on your own.

[Whilyam]

Okay, some more issues... My sprite doesn't actually work. As I said, I'm running plugin 1.5.0 and using the logic settings.

Also, as another point, the sprite (and any other images with alpha transparency in the image itself (as in, no vertex painting)) turns mostly transparent when viewed in front of a waveset.

Any reason why this is?

Also, just how do you do sprite-making outside the logic properties? I'm hoping I won't have to make alc-script for each one (as I'm planning quite a few).
