Problems with Torque "getting started" tutorial (TGE)
by Christina · in General Discussion · 11/19/2006 (6:29 am) · 2 replies
I did the official tutorial, which was with TGE and there were some problems with it. About some of them I've already read in forum (like mission didn't load and so on). I solved some of them somehow. But there are two of them left, don't know what to do to fix them.
First, when I made "Score" gui it stopped moving with mouse. W, S, A, D work, but rotating the mouse doesn't. I tried to do it several times step by step, but no luck.
Second, my player is dropping down at the beginning of the game and then everything stasts shaking (when the player touches the ground). When I press ctrl-tab during "flight" it stopps, but from first-person-view it shakes too much (all the planes from the terrain jumping...).

And yes like Adam said, the camera shakes on impact. Move your players spawn point closer to the ground. :D

The mouse stops working because torque changes the code at the top of playGui (this will be fixed in another release I was told, some old bug that found its way back in)www.garagegames.com/mg/forums/result.thread.php?qt=54116

Are you using 1.5? or lower?
I have 1.5 and was updating the playgui so that I had some custom graphics instead of the default torque. The only thing that fixed it was by manually (script) retyping the top gui portion of the playgui.gui. Then it started working again. I will post the code I had to change later tonight (after 9pm central) when im back on my home computer (at school right now).
Question 2
Have you tried the flying vehicle fix?

it might help with the shaking
Question 3
Are you using the tutorial.base?
if I remember right the camera is programmed to shake on collision from a great height.
Thanks
