recently, i got a new windows ten laptop. and so i naturaly decided to instead of manually installing updates, get them via widows store. BUT NOW ALL MY FILES ARE GONE. where are they? :,(

It depends of your previous version of TIC

if it was usual Windows application then try to search here:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\TIC - tiny computer

if it was Windows 10 UWP application from the Store then something like here:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Packages\50446Nesbox.TICcomputer_8y3dwps6jawp4\LocalState\TIC - tiny computer

THANK YOU SO MUCH! :)

wait... i just looked...

for some reason, my os/users/(USERNAME)/ does not have a "appdata." it has a "roaming" though, but nothings in ther but a folder called "Intel"...

i really have no idea what is going on with this new laptop.

Developer

usually AppData folder is hidden by default

try to enable 'show hidden files and folders'

tried that...

Developer

Hmm, seems you have other system folders structure.

Try to search *.tic files over the system with enabled 'show hidden files' option

OH MY FREAKING GOD.

MY PC...

even with the "show hidden folders"...

HID THE \appdata from me!!!

Now THAT is terrifying...

its kinda like HAL...


umm... unrelated weird thingy...

i have it so that for example:

(BTW X IS JUST A PLACEHOLDER FOR A SPRITE NO.)

t=0

ti=0

function TIC()

cls()

spr(t,0,0)

if ti==5 then t=X end

if ti==10 then t=XX end

if ti==15 then t=XXX end

if ti>=20 then ti=0 end

ti=ti+1

end

but when i do this, the animation dosnt play. (im using 0.14.0)

Developer

Tried your example, all works fine on my side.

Maybe problem with sprite indexes, could you ls provide full .tic cartridge?

Sure. its for a sonic the hedgehog clone.

called "pokey the hedgehog"

the hedegehog should be moving his legs.

LINE 148:

if ani1<=30 then ani1=0 end

try change it to

if ani1>=30 then ani1=0 end
(+1)

Thank you :)

another reason i really prefer TIC over PICO8 is cuz its easy to contact the dev if you confused :)
