Has anybody figured out how to tie multiple levels together for your final build? If you can maybe give me a little walk-through.

Place a winzone in your (preceding) level, put the name of your next level in the "if used" property box of the winzone, save standalone. That's pretty much it!

You can make a return winzone in the next level by simply putting the name of the first level in that box, or you can make things totally linear and have it go to level 3, or wherever! The possibilities are quite numerous! (I was gonna say limitless, but of course there is a limit; the number of levels and all the various level sequence variations, but you get the point)

Multiple levels fail. Each level tested fine alone, but when I add the next level to my win zone the standalone game is filled with flaws. Enemies become nonfunctional or spastic. Level leaps either don't work at all returning to the first level, or they drag pieces of the previous level with the enemy set from the new level into complete crash. I guess this is another feature I will have to try again at a later time. Still lots to learn with the latest reloaded release. Good thing I have a couple days off to play with it. I wonder if Santa will still come if I'm up on my computer.

Wow, I haven't tried it with enemies! I've still been simply in world-building mode. That kinda sucks. I've returned to the first level though, many times successfully. Maybe I'll throw in a few enemies myself and see what happens. Thanks for the heads up!

Keep in mind folks this may be a bug of my own creation. Many of my entities are of my own bumbling, and I have created a lot of my own problems in the learning process. I know most ( if not all ) of my enemies created from original FPS characters with Animer worked with the VR1.0085 but don't work with VR1.009. On the good side for me I get to explore/experiment and that is why I became a gold pledge member of the reloaded class.

Trial and error is the name of the game!

Lee confirmed that Characters given the Animer 2.2 Treatment still do not work in Beta 1.009.

I will keep playing with them, but It sounds like I may need to get with the Animer software folks for a new upgrade.
