, it was not creating this text file as it needed. I've compiled the game using the new Metacard engine in the hopes that it will solve the problem. Am hoping the new engine can go where the old one could not. Cross your fingers... Shari -- Gypsy King Software Mac and Windows shareware games http

Licensing Metacard

is functional, so I'm assuming it's good. I've got Revolution working and licensed on Windows. But am trying to create the Metacard version. When I attempt to input my license key, it claims it is invalid. I know I am entering it correctly. What am I missing? Shari -- Gypsy King Software Mac

Genu-Ine IDE issue

2006-09-17 Thread Shari
also tried with the Rev IDE as I know that I at least opened the project in Rev a couple times. Same thing. So this may be an engine issue or it may be an IDE issue. Dunno which. Shari -- Gypsy King Software Mac and Windows shareware games http://www.gypsyware.com

MC vs Rev docs

2006-09-08 Thread Shari
. So I let Mac have the ones I created, and Windows could use MC's built in ones. But it wasn't using them, so I set dontUseQT to force Windows to ignore QT and use MC's built in effects. Shari -- Gypsy King Software Mac and Windows shareware games http://www.gypsyware.com

2006-09-04 Thread Shari
? They seem to be supported in the engine itself, so why would this work in the standalone but not a stack opened with the MC IDE? If the MC IDE uses the same engine as Rev itself? It throws up an error Can't Find Handler or something to that effect. S, I am confused. Shari -- Gypsy King
