In other words, this;

Quote: "[path to your image with text1]"


is called a place-holder. When you make your image and place it in the proper folder, (probably "C:\Program Files\The Game Creators\FPS Creator\Files\languagebank\english\gamecore\text") then you replace the place-holder in your script "[path to your image with text1]" with the proper path to your image file.

Best.

I really don't know why you are having this issue and it's impossible to tell the difference between your install and mine, but if it were me I would try this.

Put a story zone in your level and assign it one of your jpg images to show. See if it appears in the proper location and remains until you move out of the zone or press escape. If that works properly, then I would suspect only the script, but if not, then I would think you have a program issue.

At least it's a place to start and narrow down the issue.

You call your images
Quote: "texturebank\user\dont_shoot1"

Do you have an extension? like dont_shoot1.jpg or dont_shoot1.dds ?

Watch out, this bunny bites...

Okay..I have a question. As everyone under the sun knows, I've been having issues with the storyzone. The vids or pic plays for a few seconds then vanishes without hitting a key or moving. Now, when I asked about this, folks said this is the way it is supposed to work, play then vanish. Is it supposed to wait for you to hit a key or move or not?

I couldn't remember so I just tried it. Images remain on the screen until you click the mouse or press escape and movies end (disapear) when they end.
