Project Tree Doesn't open upon creating a new game (Solved!)

MugMan · Tue 26/07/2016 16:00:04

Pretty much what the title says, upon creating a new game the only tab that opens is the start page, and i don't know how to open the Project tree or property grid, help would be very much appreciated

Which version of AGS, please?
If it is 3.3 or higher, look if those panels are checked in the "Window" menu.
If they are and that did not work, there is a hardcore solution for this: go to "c:\Users\<Your Username>\AppData\Local\AGS\" and delete Layout.xml - that should reset layout to defaults.

Both Explore Project and Properties are ticked under the window option, And i deleted the Layout.xml file, however neither show up

Hmm, do you have dual monitor system?
Could you post a screenshot of your AGS Editor window?

No, i'm not running a dual monitor setup, I'm not sure how to add an image to my post, sorry to be a bother.

If you upload it to some image hosting, such as imgur.com, for example, you can then use the link and put it into post as "[ img ] link [/ img ]" (without spaces)

Also, please, can you tell which version of AGS are you using?

I'm using the latest version of Ags, the issue was also present previously so i thought i needed to update, Here's the screen shot you asked for

I think it'd be easier if i posted the imgur link, http://imgur.com/a/ejsPJ

This may or not be a dumb question, but did you delete Layout.xml while AGS was running? You need to close AGS, delete the file, and then restart AGS after. Just wanted to be sure, because I am running out of ideas unfortunately.

Well i've got a bit of egg on my face! Closing ags then deleting Layout.xml did the ticket, you're a diamond mate

Lol, good to know that worked. That was actually my fault to not explain in detail, such things are not always obvious.
