If I understand correctly, you made a game in another engine. If that is the case you should contact that engines developers/web forum for help.

you can either get an edition of 3dgs without the need of that splashscreen (pro and i think com)
if you already have that version you can use a starter definition

Actually, you do have to display the spash screen for comm as well (Unless this recently changed). So the only one without that requirement is the Pro version.

helloworld,

Most problems tend to get fixed when you update to the latest free version of GameStudio. It is highly recommended that you get the latest free version as yours is very outdated. Please use your password and username (given to you when you purchased GameStudio) to get your free update.

Ahh if I right understood you don�t know where to remove the Startup Logo right ??

Re: How Can I Use a engine(PLEASE HELP ME) - 06/29/05 14:06

If your game/program isnt going to be commerical i dont think the logo needs to be displayed either. Dont quote me on that tho

Just curious whats the big deal about showing the logo anyways. Look at majority of the commercial games on the market. All ussally have multiple splash screens before startup. I think it adds a somewhat professional touch

My only gripe is that it needs to be shown first

if your using the a5 templates, you can alter the splash screen in the main script file (yourgame.wdl), just by changing the bmp you load. so, where you see a line like this:
bmap splashmap = <logodark.pcx>;
or
bmap splashmap = <logolight.pcx>;

just change to the image you want (i believe that if you have pro edition, it's ok to do this):
bmap splashmap = <your_image.bmp>;

in the a6 templates i'm not sure how it works...

Re: How Can I Use a engine(PLEASE HELP ME) - 06/29/05 14:55

Im pretty sure its the same for both. I really dont think you need to worry about the legal aspect. Esspecially if you own pro as said before you dont need to display the logo at all, and as ive said i think you only need to display the logo if your going to be making money with the game... pretty sure thats for all editions.

Quote:

You can publish and distribute your games or other applications freely without having to pay any royalties or license fees. With editions below professional, you are only required to display the engine logo for one second on the startup screen if you are earning money with the game or application.

according to that you dont

please correct me if im wrong here. Also i would update to the latest edition as well

bug fixes and some new features came with the update im pretty sure

...but isn't that the warez version? I could be wrong but if memory serves correctly that is the version. I don't mean to be rude, but maybe you should make sure your copy is legit.

No, that is not a warez version (which is not to say that he legally owns the version he has, btw). The warez version is v6.20 which was never released to the public, but was a beta version.

inside job eh?

i hope they tarred and feathered them

Ive made the mistake myself once or twice. Ussally just see 6.2 and dont notice the rest of it. Still updating is allways smart

For a few reasons one it assures that you have the latest software, second it assures no one makes a mistake and calls you a bunny

Im not sure what advantage using the older 6.22 has over the newest release 6.31 if any ,tho ive seen a few people say they rather use 6.22 Shrugs...

OT: One more post dan and we should throw you a party

If you talk about not show the splashscreen with A6 Pro using the templates of A5

look in the main for splashscreen.visible=on; or some think like this and put // in the start of this line

I hope it help you.

best regards,
