I've enabled mipmaps, I read another post where that was causing the problem, (not having them) I'll try it without them and see what happens

With or without still giving the same error

I've already got a version on steam without the custom images, it works fine might have to leave it at that

LocalFire,

I can't seem to get my intro to work either. Any chance you can figure out what I might be doing wrong since you got at least one version working.

I have a text file I named intro.lua in my mod_assets/cinematics folder and I export the game but when I play the game it just goes straight to the game.

my intro.lua file is

-- test intro

enableUserInput()
startMusic("assets/samples/music/intro.ogg")

showImage("assets/textures/cinematic/intro/page01.tga")
fadeIn(2)
sleep(1)
setFont("IntroTitle")
showText("The Missing Heir\n\na Grimrock Mod",3)
sleep(4)
fadeOutText(1)
fadeOut(4)
fadeOutMusic(3)

any ideas?

thanks

Nevermind, I got it figured out.

Sorry for cluttering up your thread LocalFire.

What I did incorrectly was save the file as intro.txt and renamed it it intro.lua. When I resaved it as intro.lua it worked.

Finally got it working, by copying a texture file then pasting my image over it and renaming it:

The file was in the in format: DDS A8R8G8B8 with iterative fit and perceptual error metric with mipmaps enabled

Hope this helps anyone with the same problem I had.

Thanks these boards have been of great help to me. When I started this project I had no idea what I was doing, now I've published a complete dungeon see it here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =127506525
