Zip file and screen size questions.

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • I've got two questions that I would like to know:

    First: Can you make a "condtion" that can detect if the game is within a Zip file or not?

    Second: Is it possible to stretch a game screen that's actully 320x240 into 640x480 while the window is maximized?

    - Thanks :)

  • Under the window properties resize display to fit window and maximize on startup.
    Use the file and binary object. Hash the file with the game in and compare the hash using the binary object.

  • So exact where on propeties can I make the screen on 320x240 look like 640x480 while maximized during runtime? :/

    I want my game to be 320x240 (small sprites) but it makes the screen so small during runtime, don't want it to stretch over the entire screen either since that's make it abit ugly too, specially on widescreen computers.

    Could you also be more datailed on the Zip part please, I'm not very good on that stuff. :P
    Save file from INI don't save correctly if saved in a zipfile, just wanted to warn players about this if the application is currently in a Zip file, so no big deal really.

  • On the Properties of your application you have a row of icons a tick, a screen, a red play icon, ~AZ icon, an event icon and an about icon. Click the screen icon and you will find the options that change the screen settings.

    For your zip file I'm assuming you want to check the Zip file is genuine so you have to load it into the binary object and then get an MD5 check sum (Hash) this can be saved into an ini file as text so you can varify it is genuine.

    I don't quite understand why you are testing zips to see if a game is in there. Are you compressing files? Just use the binary object to pack your data into 'Banks'

  • I don't think the window propeties can help me this time,
    unless I'm missing something.
    Ok, how about this:

    You can say I want it like the "Resize the display to fit window size" check box, the only diffrence is that I want to control how big the screen shall be instead of just filling the entire computer screen, all this when maximized. The game itself shall be 320x240

    I don't want the display to show more than a game in 320x240 would, but I want the display screen bigger without filling the entire screen size while maximized as the strech option now does.

    Sorry if I wasn't clear before.

    And thank you for the Zip file part. :)

    I'm not new to this program. But sometimes it still manages to get me stuck.

  • Do you mean you want to make sure that the display size isn't out of proportion? I've done this before and I could share with you how to do it. (it was pretty tricky)

    Just say the word...

    Personally I thought it was a waste, because I realized that if I used HWA the stretch didn't really matter.
