My friend and I just bought gameguru. I have a top of the line laptop with fastest video card, 12 gigs of ram, etc. I can run any game. I bought the fantasy pack and when i put in any enemy like the goblin or orc they will just stand there and not do anything, same with the flying demon. So I loaded in the preset demo of The Big Escape and went in and the soldiers just run up to me and don't shoot guns. I then fired at exploding barrel and they don't explode.

My friend has a top of the line desktop and has the same problem with the fantasy toons not doing anything BUT he loaded The Big Escape and it worked fine. I rebooted computer and still does the same thing. Seems the soldier script is not working correctly. I never touched the scripts or made changes to them. Any suggestions?

Hi there ...

Firstly the fantasy characters ...
Yes slight adjustments were needed for these and the rectified scripts will be in the next update so both of you will have this issue for a moment.

For the non exploding barrels and not getting shot issue ... Could you please verify your installation for any errors via steam ...

Go to your steam library and right click on GameGuru...Select "properties" .....then select "local files" and finally "verify integrity of game cache"

See if that brings anything to light and fixes your issue ...

Thank you for fast response

I ran the integrity of the files and it found two that failed. I ran it a few times until it said zero files had a problem. I then went into game and ran two of the demo games and the enemy still just runs up to me without firing. They must really like me ha ha

Hi happymancub

That's really strange .... Can you post your specs here for me please ....
Can I also confirm your friend is not having any of these issues ?

The Medieval characters do not work at all and some of the zombie characters do not inflict damage to the player.

Here are my Specs. Like i said, I can run any game with high graphics. And gameguru runs fine, just the AI does not seem to work, or exploding barrels.

Forgot you asked if my friend had an issue with the game demos and he did not, they attacked him and his barrels exploded. I can shoot the enemy and they die, they just can't attack me.

I guess there is no answer to my problem. Makes this gameguru useless to me

Apologies I lost you to be honest .... I thought you posted in bug reports
but could not find you highlighted again the next day so i assumed you got it sorted ..

Ok let me do a little more investigation .

How does a fresh map run if you put exploding barrels in ( red ones ) and a few characters ..... ?
Do you get the same or is it only in the Big escape map ?

Hi,

As an extra. Which barrels are you using and which characters? If you have an FPM using just media that comes with GameGuru could you please click the green button and email support a copy of the map (the FPM file) located in your mapbank folder.

Many thanks,

Hi scene commander, I'm not sure what the green button you are referring to? But to answer your questions I am using the red explosive barrel that came with gameguru. If I put it on a new empty map it still does\not explode being shot at by any weapon. I then put down several characters that came with gameguru and most never move or do anything (the barbarians, assassins, etc.) I put the cartoon armed rabbit down and he actually moves and runs up to me but never shoots at me, just like they did in the demo's you created.

Went to the zombies and found they all would attack me and worked fine. Way to go Zombies!

I even renamed the gameguru dir and had steam download another copy. Still the same. So if i only use zombies I can create something that works. Well have to wait for your patches to see if other characters start working correctly.

Hi happymancub

Firstly the medieval characters did have a missing script .... if you go to the link below you can download and add it to your script folder then you should get attacked by the the barbarians, assassins, etc

https://forum.game-guru.com/thread/212180

Im here all day and maybe all night so I can spend plenty of time trying to sort this for you ..... Do this first and check it and then we will address the next issue

The one on the bottom-right of the site here; it is the help button.

The medieval characters work fine now. Thank you.

still no exploding barrels on new map.

Ok that's one sorted

Can you make just a blank map with a couple of exploding barrels and a couple of characters .... save it and email me the map.fpm file so I can see if it has that effect my end.

synchromesh@blueyonder.co.uk

The barrels seem to explode for me?

They work for my friend also on his desktop. So weird?

The main issue we get is usually caused by a bad installation ... Usually when the steam servers are very active...this causes oddities like this ... That's why they have file verification but I have found that not to be 100% reliable ...

Just one more time .... Add/ Remove programs .... uninstall GameGuru .... ( your files will be safe ) ...Goto steam and re-install..

Just to be 100% sure

Make sure to remove all .BIN and .DBO files in the folder with the exploitable barrel. That might help.

Hi happymancub

Got your mini map you sent and its perfect my end ...I get attacked and the barrels explode so if it works fine on your mates and mine then it can only be some conflict on your system ..... I recommend you try what I posted above as the quote shows below..... If you still have no luck then all I can suggest is Customer support ( Green Help Button Bottom right )

I tried all that again and then decided to just reload my nvidia driver, they had a new update and after loading it I went into game and shot that Damn barrel......BOOM!!!!

ha ha could have saved me a ton of time had I done this at first. Thank you all for help and have a great weekend.

Nice, Glad it is working for you.

Fantastic !!

Glad its working for you .... I forget to update my drivers often as well .....Even though "GeForce experience" reminds me new one are available ,,
Usually its right in the middle of something and its a " I will do it later "

Thanks for getting back to us .... Your info has helped me with anyone else with the same issue.
