1. is there a way to start a music file from not the beggining, like after a battle, continue the overworld theme where it was before the battle?

2. how can i make an entity disapear? I tried entity.visible and entity.on but i got an error msg, is it because these are read only?

3. I tried WinVerge, but it crashed on my computer. I also tried an game made in winverge, but it also crash, is there something i should know with the compatibility to make it stable?

thanks

1: I think tSB's Verge2.7 beta is up to that, but not sure.

2: Those only work in some versions of Verge. 2.5 and 2.6 are the only one's I'm sure of.

3: It works for some, and not for others. Try changing the resolutions/colour modes. You might be lucky.

1. you can only do that in v1 and the new v2.7 beta.

2. warp it off the screen or set entity.specframe[] to a blank frame. .visible and .on are only used in 2.6, I believe.

3. I don't know about any compatibility issues, but 2.7 is being worked on. If that beta crashes, you have to let us know what the error is.

Which version of WinVerge did you try?

WinVerge1 (Which is a windows port of V1) is beyond the scope of my knowledge.

Verge 2.6 (The windows port of v2k+j/v2.5) is rather buggy

Verge 2.7 (Not a port, a total rewrite) is quite a bit more stable, but is currently in Beta. You can find the current version (v2.7 Beta 6.1) here:

i d/l the file at the link and try the little demo and everything was fine, but then i just try putting in the system.vc:
void autoexec()
{
exit("juste a test");
}

just to see if it would work, but, when i start v27.exe, it crash saying illegal operation
btw, user.cfg is empty( except for "end" command)
well, if you could help me on that, i would be grateful
thanks

v27 won't work in non-windowed mode. Is that normal?
thanks

a little app that I wrote myself that will build your user.cfg file based on your responses to a few simple questions.

After your user.cfg file is populated, you should have no trouble running in any given mode.

If you still experiance problems, just send an e-mail to the_Speed_Bump or myself and we'll work to fix it.

This is weird, but whenever I use config.exe to edit the user.cfg, even if I keep the options exactly, word for word the same, V2.7 doesn't work right. It turns all yellow, and crashes upon exit.

Notepad doesn't auto-reload files after they're changed. I just had to change from
graphdriver sys\gfx_soft.dll to gfx_dd7.dll

Prae's config editor is a little misleading.

It asks if you have a 3D accelerator, and enables gfx_dd7 if you answer yes. The fact of the matter is that gfx_dd7 doesn't use any 3D acceleration. It uses 2D acceleration.
