« on: July 31, 2014, 08:51:18 pm »

Is the use of the Dialogue Extension royalty free?  i.e. can we use it in games we sell?

Are credits and / or links required to be included?

Dialog Extension / [SOLVED] How can I manually import fonts into the dialogue extension?

« on: July 20, 2014, 10:47:13 pm »

I'm having trouble importing fonts into Stencyl. When I need to install a new font in my system, all I have to do is paste it in the font folder.

Is there a way to do something similar with the awesome dialogue extension? I mean it, I love this extension; it rocks. Can I paste a font into a folder where the dialogue extension will read it and use it? I can't import fonts through the usual method in Stencyl for some reason.

Thanks.

Resolved Questions / [SOLVED]Font editor not loading truetype fonts

« on: July 19, 2014, 10:55:11 pm »

[EDIT:] When I posted the Truetype font in another folder, it loaded up just fine! Not a Stencyl issue.


Hello,
I read this article in stencylpedia already, just so you know:

http://www.stencyl.com/help/view/font-editor/

I also tried drawing the fonts, and although it was buggy and it was easy to mess it up, it basically works. Still, It is a lot of work for me to align the text properly; it comes out all uneven through no fault of the software. I would rather upload a truetype font and be done with it, though I'm aware of the advantages of the image font, which I'm really glad is there for later use.

When I try and upload a truetype font, the dialogue box refuses to recocnize the truetype font when I click on it! when I double click on the TT font, I get a separate window that displays the font and info about it, but stencyl refuses to load the font!

Any help or ideas, please? Thanks in advance for all who reply.

Also, I am willing to use the sans serif font that comes with the program if there is no ready solution here, but it is inferior to the royalty free, ok for commercial use, TT fonts I would prefer to use. I'm assuming that's free for commercial use (sans serif setting for new font in stencyl)?

Ask a Question / Is there any way to scale and actor?

« on: March 04, 2014, 07:46:17 pm »

I am interested in making images start very small and scale up to 100% or 150%; no toggling necessary, just a static 'magnifiation'. Is there any functionality for this? I DID check Stencylpedia first, but if I missed it, any how-to links would also be appreciated.

Thanks to all who reply.

Old Questions (from 1.x/2.x) / Iphone/Ipad Screen resolution and ease of work flow

« on: December 20, 2011, 11:09:24 pm »

Is there any way to create a game in the screen resolution compatible with the Ipad and suitably large enough for a browser flash game; and then publish it in the smaller screen resolution for the Iphone? 

I'm talking ease of work flow here, where you create the Ipad/flash sized game once in a resolution that can be scaled down seamlessly to the Iphone without additionally having to manually rescale each and every screen graphic, actor, animation cycle, background, etc.

i.e create once; port everywhere at the push of a button and/or screen resolution dialogue box at publication???

Ask a Question / Flash encrypting

« on: September 18, 2011, 04:07:58 am »

Will a program like KindiSoft work to encrypt games made with Stencyl? Are there any other solutions to encrypting the game? Any good free flash encryption software that anybody tried?
