creating a mini game help.

[strangely]

well recently i've been working on platformers and a lot of small puzzle games. i want to make a mini game like instimatic monster on the cn.com site, but i can't figure out how to make characters pop out at the right time, or how to do the snap shot thing, could anybody help?

i can't open the txt.x file.

I'm guessing it's a regular ASCII text file, with a different extension.

You should be able to open it in Notepad.

WOOW dw, ignore me, i misread your problem.

Well, if you're still having trouble opening it, it says:

Arrows, control the camera

refresh, controls the rate the map blips update


Ok guys this should be pretty strait forward but i'll explain it for the noobies =D

ok basicly small objects "blips" are asigned to each object that we want represented

then the "blips" position is devided by ""the frames dimensions(x, y) divided by the mini-maps dimensions(x, y)""
then added to there position is the position of the mini-map origins(on the actual screen).

if you are confused msg me on clickteam or by e-mail @ "dacoolies@gmail.com"

The RAR file is corrupted though...
