Edit: The issue has been fixed (see latest post in this thread).
Hi! Pictures should be showing up. Please make sure you are not launching the game using a shortcut. After unzipping/unarchiving the game, you should have a file called "Tarus Infernal Pledge.html" and two folders called "img" and "music". Can you check if you have images inside the "img" folder?
As a final thing to check is your browser. The game opens in your default browser, but will work best with an up-to-date Google Chrome or Firefox on Windows.
Let me know if you still have issues!
When I unzip the initial folder and it opens up to show the .html link along with the image and music folders. When I opened the image folder, there were folders for each chapter and then a long list of images underneath them. I am running it on Chrome(which is up to date last I checked), but still nothing seems to change even when I close it out, reload the webpage, or anything else. I appreciate the quick response!
Hi. I just checked on my own Chrome installation: It is working as intended. Very strange that your firefox installation also doesn't work. I would check the following:
1. You're launching the HTML by double-clicking on it from the unzipped folder
2. You've checked your browsers settings: (Firefox) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-problems-images-not-show (Chrome): https://www.makeuseof.com/fix-google-chrome-not-loading-images/
Unfortunately I cannot reproduce this issue locally on Firefox or Chrome. This is a very strange issue that I haven't seen before in the past 3 years of game development. This suggests that the issue is something in your settings / preferences / security options in the browsers. Or the way the HTML is launched.
If you've checked the above browser settings, and it still isn't working, can check the console logs of the page? In firefox: First open the html. Then press Ctrl + Shift + J (in Windows) or Cmd + Shift + J (in Mac). Then refresh the html by pressing F5 or Ctrl + R. Does the console output mention anything about images / png files not loading properly?
Which operating system are you using?
This error suggests that the html is launch from a location that is not the unzipped location of the game. (the html will look for a relative path for the images, so launching from any other place will cause loading errors).
Version 0.4.0 with Chapter 5 is now release, and a standalone application package exists. If you are using Windows or Mac, you can use these standalone packages with a built-in browser that runs the game, so that you don't have to rely on your own browser. Let me know if this fixes your issue.
I'm using Windows, and I keep unzipping the file then opening the html link that would make it run in Chrome. So I'm not sure if there's something I'm doing wrong, or what. I'll try it with the new update and hopefully that will fix whatever issues may be occurring. If it does, I will edit this comment! So it looks like the built-in launcher works perfectly and the images are showing up as they should!
