They both say "TEST.WMB: Can't open file" One is "Malfunction W1301" and the other is "Error E1100". How can I solve this problem?

Is it build with the same engine version? Did you try it with a different wmb as well? ... http://www.puppenheim.org/ http://www.wuerfels-welt.de Old Game Tutorial: http://www.puppenheim.org/MITutorial.zip Free Game Editor: http://puppenheim.org/AlienalsWeihnachtsmann.zip http://www.puppenheim.org/blender_starting_main_settings.txt

What I did was I copied a .wmb file from one of the sample folders and modified it as a test, hence the name "test.wmb". So it is not built from a wmp file, I don't think (not my modified version). It does work with other .wmb files and yes to the other two questions. Last edited by Panda_Dude; 04/15/10 20:26. Reason: lack of clarity

(Hm, not sure, whether this is explained properly.) http://www.puppenheim.org/ http://www.wuerfels-welt.de Old Game Tutorial: http://www.puppenheim.org/MITutorial.zip Free Game Editor: http://puppenheim.org/AlienalsWeihnachtsmann.zip http://www.puppenheim.org/blender_starting_main_settings.txt

It won't move when I press the keys I have set. Here's the code. Quote: action move_plane () { plane = me; my.ambient = 100; while (1) { if (key_a) my.pan += 3time_step; if (key_d) my.pan -= 3time_step; if (key_w) c_move (me,vector(0,15time_step,0), nullvector, GLIDE); wait (1); if (key_s) c_move (me, vector(0,-15time_step,0), nullvector,GLIDE); wait (1); } }

I've defined the entity with Code: ENTITY* plane = "mig.mdl"; and then added the action to it with Code: plane = me; inside the action. Is that the right way of doing it?
