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!

  • "Every" Timer -- Increase the Speed

    Is there a way to increase the "Every X" speed of the timer?

    I'm using some "typewriter text" code that creates the effect of spitting out text one character at a time. It's programmed like this: "Every 3 seconds," some text is printed.

    Problem is, I'd like to increase the speed of the timer. (Maybe tricking the program into interpreting "Every 3 seconds" as being "Every 2 second"?) I have hundreds of lines of this and I'd like to avoid adjusting each and every one. (I especially would like to avoid creating an extra counter and having the value tied that -- not until MMF supports a find-and-replace function.)

    I've tried "Every X seconds, add 1 second to timer" -- but this doesn't seem to do anything.

    Any ideas? Is there an extension that manipulates how the timer works (one that's compatible with Flash)?

    Thanks for your help!

  • Embedded Font Problem

    Hi everyone -- I'm trying to export an SWF game with an uncommon typeface (Joystix Monospace), so I'm trying include it as the embedded font. Every time I try to build it, however, I get an error message.

    Loading configuration file C:\Program Files (x86)\Multimedia Fusion 2\Data\Runtime\Flash\Flex\frameworks\flex-config.xml
    C:\Users\X\AppData\Local\Temp\Fla8372.tmp\RuntimeFlash.mxml(33): Error: exception during transcoding: Font for alias 'EmbJoystix Monospace' with plain weight and style was not found by family name 'Joystix Monospace'

    [Embed(systemFont='Joystix Monospace', fontName='EmbJoystix Monospace', mimeType='application/x-font')]

    C:\Users\X\AppData\Local\Temp\Fla8372.tmp\RuntimeFlash.mxml(33): Error: unable to build font 'EmbJoystix Monospace'

    [Embed(systemFont='Joystix Monospace', fontName='EmbJoystix Monospace', mimeType='application/x-font')]

    From what I can tell from earlier posts, the SWF Exporter doesn't like certain fonts...but does anyone know why? And what kinds of fonts do work? No matter what I try to embed, I seem to run into snags.

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
