    @SplitMindGaming Just downloaded it now. On the world looking button at the top, click the earth then click on behaviors and go to “add music” and go from there.

    Sorry for the late reply. To address your concern, the app is far from dead. The forum could use some life though. We're going to start actively working on making the forum more active!

    @Ninjadoodle Easiest way is to just have an object the size of the screen on the UI layer. In the next update we've added a toggle to interact with the screen on touch behaviours.

    @Ana-potato Hey sorry for the late reply, there is actually a bug right now making imported images not transparent if they are over a certain resolution. This has been fixed in the upcoming update.

  • Sprites gaining black background when imported?

    @Kore I finally got it working, please read! This is some sort of bug in Hyperpad. I tried the exact same method on my old IPad and it worked perfectly, no black background! So it works on my older IPad, but not on my newer one. They are both running Hyperpad version 2.0 (20) so I think this is some sort of IOS thing. My new Ipad is on IOS 18.1.1 and every time I imported, the sprites had black backgrounds My old Ipad is on version 15.7 and the importing of the sprites worked with no issues despite me doing the exact same method and using the same files. This may not be the actual issue, but it's the only thing I noticed that was different between my attempts. I guess something in the new IOS update causes sprite importing to not work properly. Please fix! And thanks for this awesome app.

    The save file is stored outside the project file. So it's not affected by downloading a new version from the hub.

    Just following up with this We've since rearranged the beahviours. There is no "advanced" category any more. The Joystick Left and Right behaviours are not combined into the "Joystick Input". So drag on the joystick input behaviour, then tap the beahviour, and from the drop down select Joystick left, and then add another one and make it say joystick right. Hope this helps!

    The dark interface is automatic based on your iOS preferences. In older versions of iOS, there is a manual control.

    @gmail Yeah, if you have both the viewer and the hyperPad app on the same device they will conflict. Because they're both capable of opening the hyperPad file. iOS doesn't have a nice way of handling this. As for the permissions, make sure you open the project in the editor at least once. Otherwise there will be no permissions attached to them.

    @RobinsonX Yes, thank you! I have determined that you can “find” an object by Name, but you must use the Object ID to manipulate it.

    @Shady91 However, a blank scene is very rare.. I'd assume it's a memory issue because it fixes itself after restarting the app. To clear up some memory, you can go to your account settings by pressing the top left hamburger icon and then tapping the gear. You want to press on the button called Clear Project Cache.
