Miscellaneous newbie TGB tutorial issues

I tried the checkers program on the tutorial page. My client and server join the the network page doesn't go away after joining. Has anyone seen this program before.
Undauted, I tried the shooter tutorial. I never made it past page 1. It said to import particles1, particles2, particles5, and particles6. Can someone expand on where these particles came from.
Still undaunted I thought I regress to the particles tutorial. Now I'm daunted. Still never made it past page 1. Problem was where one had to load particles1ImageMap. I could not find a particles1ImageMap to load. Where is this?

Once it is loaded into TGB it gets renamed (in TGB), the default for the name would be particles1ImageMap.
So look for particles1.
As for the problems with the checkers tutorial ... check for any errors in the console.
If you don't know hit ~ to see the console while in TGB.

I would highly appreciate if you would compile the issues with the tutorial pages (as well as any other information you can add, such as which sections had the issues, what step, etc) and posted them in the "Report Bugs" section of the TGB Private forums (btw if you don't see the private forums go to Community -> Forums... click the "Edit Subscriptions" button in the top left and make sure the TGB Private forums are selected.

I'm sorry to hear you're having some issues with the tutorials... Unfortunately some aspects of them have become a bit outdated and we missed updating some minor details.I would highly appreciate if you would compile the issues with the tutorial pages (as well as any other information you can add, such as which sections had the issues, what step, etc) and posted them in the "Report Bugs" section of the TGB Private forums (btw if you don't see the private forums go to Community -> Forums... click the "Edit Subscriptions" button in the top left and make sure the TGB Private forums are selected.
