Adventure maker help

Hi Justeazy,

I have also experienced in rare cases that my .ico files were not accepted. Then I used another software and saved them again under another name, and they worked.

How big are they (in pixel x pixel)? Are they all bigger than 60 x 58 pixel?

[Justeazy]

Yes, they are.
Do they need to be that small?

I have (most of) mine usually around 75x75 pixels.

I'll reduce the size, then try again.


EDIT: I checked the box to auto make it 48x48, and it still didn't work.
I then tried manually resizing, and it still doesn't work.
I have gone to the site with .ico icons that you posted, but I cannot find any that I like.

[Mistery]

No, they should be bigger. The creator of Adventure Maker told me to check that they are bigger, when I told him about this same problem. This is why I asked you. Sorry for the misunderstanding - I should have been clearer

Can you send me 1-2 such icons by email to check?
If you would like to, let me know by PM, and I'll give you my email.
The email feature through the profile currently doesn't seem to work.

I have had problems running .am1 games but it seems that I managed to make it work somehow. The .am1 file would not load unless I got the screen that demanded admin permission. Otherwise I kept getting an error essage.
When I got the admin permission window up, it worked fine
Just so ya'll know....

[Mistery]

Was it the error message "Invalid procedure call or argument"?
What did you do to get the admin permission demand? Can you give some advice to Escape and others who might have the same problem?

[Lilliputt]

Yes, that is it. It is a little strange. I happened to have notepad open so when I double clicked the am1 file, I decided to move the open notepad. The am1 window became all strange and the admin permission window flashed on my windows toolbar. Thaz how I got to the admin permission demand. Very irritating having to prove to my own computer that I am the admin

[Justeazy]

Well, I tried making them all bigger (75-100 pixels in all categories)
They still don't work...
so...
I guess I'll just have to make a list of variables a mile long...
and say all of the items are AUTOMATIC, lmao.

[Mistery]

Hmmm, I always managed to make .ico files work by using Irfan View or GIMP

[Lilliputt]

I use IrfanView but I also use IcoFX when the transparency is not really the way I want it. It is practical for really small icons

[Justeazy]

Haha, well I'll have to try GIMP for my next one...
As for my first one, I just patched all of the item holes with variables, and added an extra section to the escape in order to not have an extra "key" leftover.

I it is like really short, and with paint images for the scenes (I know, I rule, ) but I don't think it is too bad for my first one made...
*leaves to make .ico's using GIMP, and hope it works*
