Kramy Registered 08/06/2002 Points 1888	5th July, 2004 at 00:25:32 - Have you tried setting a group in the ini? Kramy
:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 00:37:35 - No, ill do it n/a
:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 00:40:19 - Nope, it still doesn't work n/a
Shen Possibly Insane Registered 14/05/2002 Points 3497	5th July, 2004 at 04:27:19 - Try setting a group and pulling the items from that group as well. Though if you just need one group, you might be better off using AssArray. gone fishin'

First you have to define the ini. then the group, then the item. and finally the shown action with set counter to ini ... set ini to $appdrive+$appdir+"myini.ini" set current group to "mygroup" set current item to "myitem1" set counter to value of ini it doesn´t want to work when there is one thing in the wrong order . for example when you first set the counter to the ini before you have loaded the ini to read from take a look in the events list editor ... veeery important this Free graphics,Free Games http://www.reinerstilesets.de

AndyUK Mascot Maniac Registered 01/08/2002 Points 14586	5th July, 2004 at 15:28:31 - speaking of rpgs ive had a few problems using ini to load properly i have to put every single action in a different line start of level ini group to "stats" set item to "hp" set counter to value of ini i can't set the item and load the value at the same time too often or the number will be mixed up .

:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 15:49:43 - Also, it just doesn't work when I get a "value from an item", if I just use "get value", it works. I have also tried saving it as a stand alone application, like shab said, but it still doesn't work Edited by the Author. n/a

:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 17:21:59 - Yeah at the start of frame the file is set. And I even tried by loading all the stuff from the INI until the timer is 00'10. But it doesn't work. n/a
Knudde (Shab) Administrator Crazy? Registered 31/01/2003 Points 5125	5th July, 2004 at 17:24:39 - Are you doing it step by step in different events? like Event - Load Value qz Event - Load Value dz this might help like andy suggested. Craps, I'm an old man!
Knudde (Shab) Administrator Crazy? Registered 31/01/2003 Points 5125	5th July, 2004 at 17:34:40 - No phizzy, the Ini+ DOES work. At least with the proper updates anyway, mine's worked fine off the CD. Craps, I'm an old man!
:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 17:47:34 - I'm using the ini plus that comes with MMF (there is one right? maybe I did install the ini+ i had for TGF...), and, um doing it step by step well, that's what i may end up doing. But for that i'd have to put timer equals to 00'01 - stuff timer equals to 00'02 - stuff timer equals to 00'03 - stuff timer equals to 00'04 - stuff timer equals to 00'05 - stuff timer equals to 00'06 - stuff ...etc wouldn't I? There are 8 weapons to load n/a
Knudde (Shab) Administrator Crazy? Registered 31/01/2003 Points 5125	5th July, 2004 at 17:55:12 - You're better off using loop based loading ex. ================================= always And Counter is <10 - add 1 to counter counter=1 - load this counter=2 - load that and so on. This is only because sometimes timed events get skipped on slower systems or in large games. Craps, I'm an old man!

INI+ for MMF is provided for people who have used it in TGF games and want compatibility. http://www.clickteam.info/extensions/extview.php?id=80 i'm pretty sure you could have all those actions in one event, one after the other. or run a fastloop to do it. www.thenatflap.co.uk
:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 17:59:17 - Ok. I'll do the loop thing. Thank you very much n/a
:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 18:22:04 - Oh.... silly me.... I picked the normal INI (not plus) from the "Insert new object" dialog... It can get values from items..... ... .... So the problem was that I chose INI plus the first time.... It works perfectly now and as I wanted (loading the 8 weapons at start of frame) n/a
Knudde (Shab) Administrator Crazy? Registered 31/01/2003 Points 5125	5th July, 2004 at 18:29:25 - just a question, what is it that you're working on there? Craps, I'm an old man!
:JULI@N: Registered 14/07/2002 Points 641	5th July, 2004 at 18:36:13 - Um its a weird game, I think I'll name it "Bizarrity" there are 8 (wacky) weapons (like carrots), and each has it's own type of bullet, so that's why many things have to be loaded at the start of frame. I'll make a preview or submit a demo soon n/a
