hi burak,
why are you doing bgt, are you thinking of making any game on your own?

this must be a dream...!

well, if you do come out with a game, it would be a miracle! just miracle indeed!

just look at your age and resources? lol!

ok, can you proove yourself a bit by recording your voice and talking about something?

that would be a nightmare again!

lol burak, just lol!

Hi,

Hayden's right. You're trying to run an empty menu, and adding items to it when you've actually exited it again. You should know that the menu stops any further execution of the script beyond it until it's out of the menu loop.

Hi burak and others.
hmm maybe you should look at the menu's tutiral. i can't remember where it is apart from it is in the help file somewhere. it gives you all the stuff you nead to put in the dinamic menu. so you could look at it then see what you nead to add to the menu.
hope this helps.

Thank you. Sid, you don't need to be surprized much, I have a friend who  did a snakes and latters, etc etc.

@sid, Burak is doing exacly what should be done with bgt, namely he's testing things out, practicing and learning with the eventual desire to create a game.

I don't think its a matter of age or resources, it's a matter of putting in the time and trouble, and that's great.

I'd personally much rather have someone who puts in the work learning and practicing to later make a fantastic game as indeed Philip himself did at about 14 when he made 3D snake, tarzan junior etc, than someone who rushes through and creates a practice game that has more bugs than gameplay, then complains about it.

So I think Burak is just on the right track here, and deffinately should only think about creating a propper game when he's got the skills to do so, sinse it'll be a far better game in the long run.

as regards voice acting, that is a totally different matter, and it's certainly not true that anyone who makes a game should be good at recording or acting.

thomas ward indeed apparently has a very bad speaking voice which is why he does not speak in his own games or record audio reviews, ----- though as we all know his programming and game creation skills are very superiorr.

Here ya go
#include"dynamic_menu.bgt"
void main() {
show_game_window("testmenu");
tts_voice speech;
speech.speak_wait("Welcome!");
dynamic_menu mainmenu;
mainmenu.wrap=false;
mainmenu.allow_escape=true;
mainmenu.add_item_tts("Start the test.");
mainmenu.add_item("exit");
int playerchoice=mainmenu.run("Please select an option and press enter to activate it.",true);

if(playerchoice==1) {
alert("This is a test!","This is a test!");
}
if(playerchoice==2) {
alert("Cheepscape","Exiting...");
exit();
}
}

Hi burak,
what dragon said is true. i just tested your coad and it works apart from like you say it exits when you press the down aro.
what you nead to do is ad _tts to your exit coad.
hope that helps.

hi
hey.. can someone tell me, where should i  test my code on, BGT?

should i open a notepad? or what.

thanks!

Ghorthalon is right. I personally just code in Notepad, and since I have BGT properly installed, when I simply press enter on a BGT script in Windows Explorer or Total Commander, it gets run by the BGT interpreter right away. When I want to edit it, choosing the corresponding option in the script's context menu is a matter of less than two seconds.
Hope this was actually an answer to what you were in fact asking for. :-D

Hi,
I've messed around with it as well, and have found it useful, although I wish it were made to not have those graphics whe navigating. Ah well--you take what you have and make the best of it.
Ad for DZK, it wasn't a bad start--version 2.4 of Bonus Game had some actual possibilities, although the way you could simply keep walking back and forth and picking up items made things...easy?

I do seriously consider looking into a code editor myself one day. Notepad is just okay for me, for the time being, but the convenience of an editor like this could definitely make things much nicer. :-)

hello

thanks dragon and lukas, i just got it..

well, i don't want to create a topic for my basic questions,
but what language would you recommend me, to study, to be able to  code in BGT?

i'm pretty newb, and it's been 3/4  months that i'm trying to find what language should i start learning.

thanks!
