i seem to have lost a few events, the ones that have my rocket launcher guy shoot, i wanted to make some editions to them, but, they are no where to be found, even stranger they are still in effect, i checked global events, each frames events, and its behaviors, but still nothing, anyone know where they could have gone?
[Game design makes my brain feel like its gonna explode.]
This happened to me! One of my early events has vanished from the editor but the event still works. There are no qualifiers, no global or behavior events to control it!
BTW, W3R3W00F, backup RIGHT NOW. Thumb drives are almost as unreliable as floppies in my experience, especially if you don't use hardware removal and just rip it out while it's still writing. Even if you do though, I've had them randomly scramble everything on me. Plus, they're easy to lose.
every usb thumb drive ive had since 2004 has died after about 6 months but strangely enough i had one before that thats still going strong.... in a held together with stickytape sort of way.

VERY easy to lose! My thumb drives (the ones that I remember cuz all my crap is on them) Are made by Kingston And PNY. They're actually pretty good. Right now Flyte is F'in up so F'in bad. I added ONE animation to the enemy ship and I could damage it. I rarely got any bugs with MMF2, and They're popping up everywhere with dev. What's the difference besides features?!?! |:, Ugh. anyways back on topic.
I could probably use a CD instead. I'm sure that'd work better.

Right now I'd rather use MMF2, but it expired. I use dev for the time being cause that's what I resorted to- didn't have much of a choice.|:, I didn't actually find any bugs in MMF2(Then again I haven't been using it for long ).
Wait a minute, you bought dev and used the standard demo? O_o Or are you using the dev demo too? Dev shouldn't give you any troubles if Standard doesn't, since they are the same for the most part.
Mine happened in MMF2. One of the first lines of code for a frame was to move a bunch of objects to the left. But I added more objects that I wanted to do the same, only the line wasn't there anymore. Objects were still doing it, qualifier free ones at that. I know MMF, but didn't know it could do that!

I know what you mean. I feel that way about BOM sometimes. If you really want to be serious about backing up, you can:
-Save multiple copies on your hard drive
-Back up your hard drive
-Save copies on external drive
-Save copies to thumbdrive
-Burn discs and mail them to Grandma
-Back them up on multiple online storage services
-Email them to yourself.
Alrighty, that takes care of backing up, sorry about the off-topicness.
NAW, it's OK. It sounds like you're prepared for the worst! I wonder if grandma has beaten BOM yet LOL
Yeh, Flyte is so crapped up right now. The kamikaze ships are supposed to be destroyed when they touch the player; Oh, but that was TOO MUCH TO HANDLE for dev. SOOOOO instead of going *BOOM!* the ship turns upside down and moves up a number of spaces. Gyah, I hate dev. It's random, and alive.
wow, thats a lot of replies in 1 day\, so ill go in order
yeah james, it was some of my early events. odd.
hernan, it says everything is displayed, and all of my groups are expanded.
i checked the objects behaviours, it has none
im using mmf2 developer
still no one knows? the thing was multiple objects, all of which were related to my 1st rocket launcher, after i had used it, it messed up my game, and i had to go back to a backup.
[Game design makes my brain feel like its gonna explode.]
idk. Ive had mmf2 dev since it came out and I've never experienced this where it wasn't behaviors or hiding. Did you check the properties of the application itself? The next to last tab lets you input global events. Nice avatar, btw.
Vegeta? What does your mother say about my power level?
nope, there just plain gone, no filters, not in any of that stuff, no big deal really, i dont need to remove them, i was just going to see how i did it, oh well.

your file is corrupted; this happened to me too. See if clickteam knows what to do; all I know is that when I tried to work with it it further ruined the file until MMF2 wouldn't work with it.
Yea, probably file corruption ... it even happens in TGF 1 sometimes. Seems like the more often I save, the more likely it is to happen, so I think something goes goofy while saving it.
That's why I have a bazillion different names for files that are very similar except one or two minor changes.
If anything happens to one during the save phase, I don't have much coding to replace.

It was worse in KNP. Much worse. I spent about 3 months on a game, only to have it lost completely when it crashed at one time. The entire game was unopenable, graphics, events, everything. Ever since, I kept at least 3 backups, some on other servers.
