That was FANTASTIC! The only thing that would make this better would be if it could be a stand-alone executable file. Also, is there any way to make it start in full screen, or automatically jump to a certain world?

Thanks so much for posting that, gabe, and thanks to Dennis too for making it. Great work!

How would this work for macs? There isn't a required folder that I'm aware of but I'd really like to use it.

I'm no expert -- I just sit next to the people who are. I need to take care of a few things first, but then I will check this out. Are you using Alice 2 or 2.2?

I can't promise a mac version of this, but I will ask Dennis if this is possible. He is currently out of town, so give it a week and then bug me to bug him.

I'm having the same problem, and am using Alice 2.2, can you ask Dennis anything about this please?

And ask Dennis anything about a stand-alone executable or java conversion (so it could be compiled in Netbeans/BlueJ and then embedded to a webpage.

Also, Alice 3 backward compatibility would be cool!

Thanks!

Paul

Very basic questions, I'm sure, but I'm not gifted computer-wise. I appreciate the time anyone takes to answer.

This would be like a real game. That would be great

And if you could get rid of the editing stuff on the boarder, Alice would be like a realy game and if you could make executables with 2.2 that would be even cooler even though you can use mama, thats already done

This is so cool! Again, I'd love it if we could export as STANDALONE exe files. As in no other files. Just one EXE file. That'd rock!

It doesn't work with my game. I have Alice 2.04, and it'll work up to the point of asking user a question then it locks up and the dialog box never pops up.
