Problems running or building games

06/18/2010, 12:10
Hi there

I just got the full version of Visionaire.. Absolutely love it - so easy to use!

The only problem is that when I run a game (for example the demo game included with the software), it opens Visionaire Player in full screen, but the screen stays black and nothing happens...

I've tried building the game as well and then running the .exe file but it does the same thing. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

Okay I've narrowed it down... I can now run the demo game from the editor if I ask it not to run it in full screen... If it runs in windowed mode then I can see everything and hear the sounds... Why won't it work in full screen, though?

Hi,

have you tried to deactivate the widescreen support? (go to Options - Player tab)

and maybe it helps to install the latest driver for your graphic card. OpenGL is needed for Visionaire and if you just have the default driver OpenGL could be missing.

Hi Alex.

That's one of the first things I tried but it doesn't make a difference... Basically the only way to run a game is in windowed mode (if I uncheck Fullscreen under Options - Player)... When I run it fullscreen I only see black and I can hear the sounds... Input from the keyboard works too because if I press escape I can hear it skipping through the intro video etc to the menu...

Will try getting new drivers for my card but I don't understand why it only works in Windowed mode and not fullscreen. Will also try running Visionaire on a different computer to see if that makes a difference...

With which Version of Visionaire are you working? Maybe we fixed this in 3.4... but it has not been released yet.
