I think this is because the default maximum for a horizontal bar counter is something ridiculously high like 9,999,999 - and 500 is an insignificant number compared to that. Set the maximum to something much lower and you'll see a difference.

Indeed. You have to set the minimum and maximum value to your needs for horizontal and vertical bar . And for Animation , too .
Rightclick at the counter, choose Properties / Values, and change it to initialize 500, minimum 0 , and maximum 500 , and you are back to business , having a full bar at the start .
One more point to take care of : 500 max means that you may need 500 pixel widht of the counter to display every step , so that every value is one pixel. Having different max and width of the bar could cause some glitches (not sure if they are still there. Itīs been a while that i used it ) ...
Finally one more : you can change the minimum and maximum value also by an event in the event editor . May be handy when you work with different maximum values for this counter . Like increasing the counter by level up ...
