Title: Knytt tech help
Post by: The_Hatt on April 11, 2009, 19:00:33

I downloaded Knytt 1.0.2 from greywool and am dying to play it, but whenever I start the actual gameplay segments there is this large tile that obscures the screen, how do I get rid of this?

Thanks in advance

Perhaps you could post a screenshot?

Weird thing is, when I switch to a different window, the foreground glitch disappears, but when I switch back to knytt it comes back.

I have no idea whether or not this has been said before ( a search revealed nothing)
but here it is:

With Num lock off, press and hold down End on the numpad. A whole bunch of squares will float on the screen. The glowing square shows your location. Half-squares mean there is one tileset (the colours dictate tilesets) and whole squares are two tilesets. A small cube in the corner means 3 tilesets. This is all a bit confusing, but try it out. Yes, it is a map of the knytt world!

hmm, if I recall correctly, those squares didn't have anything to do with tilesets. That thing was the ambience system, and the colours represent different melodies & ambience noise. At least the game doesn't use tilesets (in the same way as Knytt Stories). But it might also be that Nifflas used those large squares fr the tilesets just to remind him where some part of the world ends and where some other begins.

Indeed. So see if your end key is being pressed down or so.

That fixed it.  Thanks for your help.

It can actually be kind of a useful map sometimes. :D
