Screenies supplied must be in .jpg or .png format so that we aren't required to download the screenshot. Also, when saving, make sure the file extension is all lowercase. (Example: .JPG won't show up for us, but .jpg will)

As for your problem, I'm not sure. I have always changed the sky via the "setuplevel.fpi" script.

You need to go to Files/Languagebank/English(Or you Lang)/gambank/mygame/setuplevel.fpi

Open setuplevel.fpi in notpad and edit state=0:Sky=skybank\and then the folder you skybank is in/then the sky bank.

example - :state=0:sky=skybank\natural\ngt for the night skybox

hope this helps

Best s4

Why are you selecting an fpi file for the sky, it should be a .x file? Try this (look at attached screenshot).

There's a select tool on the top toolbar. Use that, draw a rectangle around the layer, press ctrl+X to "cut" it.

@Punk13:

I also said to make sure the extension is all lowercase. You're extension is ".JPG", which won't show up for me. It tells me it's a php page and tries to download it.


you don't need to "cut" the layer, just select it all and hit Delete.

An Entire layer, but i fixed it, the only problem now is a want to play some background music in my arena game, but it wont play i tried using a sound zone but it didn't work, i think that i might need to change this line of code from the global script, but im not sure do you think it will work?

There is a script command called "MUSIC", it's used the same as the sound command.

You can see it being used in the "setuplevel.fpi" script. I'd try editting that, since it'll directly effect your game's music as well.



As for your sky... sky files are not scripts, and your OPEN dialog is set to only look for *.fpi files. (Look at the bottom of the dialog box... see how it says "*.FPI"? Change that to *.* to view all files in the folder)
