I have created a small house just like the tutorial says. I click the "build" buttom, and then "run". Everything goes perfect with no errors when building the level.
But when I click run, I can't move the camera to any directions with the mouse pointer or the arrow keys.
I remember being able to move on my old Windows Xp computer, but now I am using Vista. If you know the solution to this problem, or if you think that you do, please answer me.

Thank you.

without a script, pres the zero button once or twice from memeory

Hey thanks a lot! now it works! It there anything that I can do so I don't have to keep pressing the 0 key everytime?

Make a generic Start script with a camera in it.
Refer to the AUMs (Acknex User Magazine) for working examples.
Then every time you want to test a new scene out, add the script, apply the camera action to an object in the scene (just a small ball or box or something) and check it out.

Ive got one of Georges lying around somewhere in my hard drive so as soon as I find that, I'll past it here for you to check out.

[EDIT]
OK, copy/paste this into Word (not office word!)
Then save as "TestScript.wdl" including the "" marks (dont know lite c)
Then place a small onject in your level and attach the "Freecamera" action to it, update entits or build then go.


Aslo has some basics in it like fps counter, version used etc.

When in runtime, press c to use camera.
Dont be scared to play with values.
