Cleberson Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Well, last month i got a new computer, for my and my dad use. I picked my Sonic evolution mfa file and putted it in my personal folder, after i started the game, i see the Sonic life. From 35 to 00. VERY STRANGE, because, before, the life display 35, because this is what i get in gameplay. but, now display 00, and when i got a life, the game dont save. See how the code is: EDIT: EVERYTHING IN GAME, have this problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 There's not much to work on in here, but let's go: I assume your Global String K (which I guess must be a profile name or something) is properly set before you try this, right? If it's not, then that might be the reason. Try this - set the paths to appdir$+"\levelname.bin" instead of your current expression and see if it works. Also, I don't understand the "Always set value lives to item lives" event. Why is that in there? Is "value lives" an alterable value? Or is it pointing to the inbuilt MMF2 lives counter?

Hey ^^ weellllll, the "lives" (is life) is a alterable value, and the item. They are same names. EDIT: Ok, the code does work also i have tried this: appdrive$+appdir$+"LevelName.bin" = syntax erro appdrive+appdir$+"save/LevelName.bin" = code accepted, but does work.

GSF Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 You just said "does work". I'm guessing you meant "doesn't" work? There's not much to estimate from what your code shows. Things seem right here... How about you click the INI object in the event editor bar so that MMF2 only shows you events related to it? See if there's any other events you missed.

GSF Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Have you tried checking out your ini file, wherever is it written? See if the values are correctly written on the file (just open the ini with notepad.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleberson Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Have you tried checking out your ini file, wherever is it written? See if the values are correctly written on the file (just open the ini with notepad.) Everything still ok, i think this problem is because i change it the mfa file from your original folder. Changed why? a PC problem :/ soo now, with a new PC, this problem has been appeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 The path you use is relative though (./Save), so it should still work. Unless you're working from a read-only medium, that is... Try setting just a plain absolute path like C:\save.ini or something, see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSF Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Something's really off here... Do you have any other computer handy? Try the very same mfa and see if it works there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleberson Posted May 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Now i really think is my pc, because, i picked one backup who i got in 26/03/2013 and, have the same problem, who is very strange because, i remember when i created this backup, all is ok... But how this is happen? If this problem persist, i only continue the game when i got a new computer (in 2014 or something...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 There must be something wrong with your system setup. In case you use Windows Vista or 7: You're not running the mfa from a folder like Program Files (which in Vista+ is read-only when not running a process as administrator)... ...right? Try running mmf2 as administrator, or put your mfa in a directory that will surely have read/write permissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleberson Posted May 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 My dear god .-. the problem is fixed, i changed the selection who say "Only the user can change files in PC" to "Only the user and archives can change files in PC" and fixed .-.

GSF Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 So it was a permission problem after all... Well, that's bound to happen with sytems with haphazardly implemented permissions. :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleberson Posted May 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Yeah, in fact, for me this is unheard of, did not know the options control panel influenced both the Game XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
