• Yes, you want to use the Journal element - only one's needed, though.  A Journal element is just like a Label - only it's contents can be changed as the page number changes. Create a journal, enter in the number of pages and put some text in each p…

  in where to start when making a readable book in the inventory? Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• I don't believe you can bring a BlendShape animation into Unity from Blender - I've tried it myself. What you can do, though, is attach the Shapeable script to your Skinned Mesh Renderer object. With that, you can sort your BlendShapes into categor…

  in Bringing Blend Shape animation into Unity Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Some ideas there for me to think about, thank you.  I will see if I can build upon this Action with some new features. Certainly you should be able to use this Action in an asset file.  When you drag the sword model into the "Object to hold&qu…

  in Clicking in the Inventory... stumped! Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• 1) AC will overwrite your Inputs, Tags and Layers if you let it, but it's not essential at all.  Section 1.1 of the manual covers exactly what you need to do to make the changes manually. 2) The supplied UFPS prefabs are for convenience only.  This…

  in Importing into an existing project Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• There's no such limitation - it's all down to your own Menu settings.  "i" isn't part of the default AC menu - are you using your own modified interface?  The only restriction so far as using Items on Hotspots goes is that the game can't b…

  in Dragging from inventory to hotspot doesn't respond Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Just rename the files.  Unity can only read in .txt files, but .pam files are just renamed text files anyway.

  in Pamela files? Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Fixed for 1.43.

  in Weirdness with sorting layers when loading from another scene Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• If you use the Player: Constrain Action, you can be more specific about disabling movement and/or free-aiming.

  in Turn off movement but not looking? Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Thanks for the alert.  I'm atop of things.  v1.43 should make things work much better in this area.

  in Very slow start-up when scene has many objects Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• At the moment, it's true: Actions can only be found when not in WebPlayer mode.  This will be fixed in the upcoming 1.43 update, however!

  in Action List Editor problem and cutscenes Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Yes, you definitely need an idle animation to play once it's finished!  Even one frame should do it.

  in How to get an animation work only once? Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Don't worry @RajeeshRajee, your questions will always get answered. However, we'll need to see/know more about what you're doing before we can help.  Does the animation play properly when you preview it in the model's Inspector?  What else is going…

  in Triggering Legacy Animation for an Object. Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Multiple PlayerStarts are definitely needed if you can enter a scene from multiple locations - each PlayerStart would correspond to a different "previous scene". You can also use the Scene: Check previous Action to determine which scene w…

  in Project Organization Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• You can animate the Use and Look icons and not the regular pointer, no problem. As for using the Animator, you might be able to get something going using a Unity UI-based Menu that's set to follow the cursor.  However, you'd very likely need to do …

  in Hotspot interaction method Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• You can't prefab any scene-based ActionList (Cutscene, Trigger etc) - Action's won't survive.  This is a limitation of Unity's handling of ScriptableObjects, and beyond my control. If you want the Actions references by such a list to live in an ass…

  in Prefab with action list does not store the configuration Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• You can't dupliate the scene objects - this is a limitation of the way Unity behaves, and not something I can fix. But you can still copy all of the Actions in one object and paste them into another - just use the ActionList Editor window!  Right-c…

  in Duplicating Actionlist still points to original Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Because of the way Unity handles ScriptableObjects, it's not possible to prefab scene-based Actions.  However, you can still use ActionList assets to populate your Cutscenes, Hotspot Interactions etc.  Just look for the Source popup at the top of on…

  in Strange trigger behavior Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• If you're using custom code injections to affect hotspots, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to support any problems you may encounter.  However, I've gone and switched to Enums for the Action category code.  You'll have to upgrade custom Actions wi…

  in I lost all my Action data after upgrading Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Recreated.  Will fix.

  in Null ref with Change Timescale action Comment by ChrisIceBox March 2015
• Settings Manager - set the Movement method to Direct Control, and the Input Method to Keyboard Or Controller.  The list of required inputs below will update with those you need to set up in Unity's Input manager.
