Trinidad I've noticed that blank space makes a difference for some reason. So if you're using a line break and then a space the program bugs out try doing it without the space.

Still wouldn't show up in the question box Sad

Example: with
Code:
Noisy bug seen here: <br /> <img src="C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\2007-07-18_DJ_27.jpg" height="240" width="360" />

with
Code:
Noisy bug seen here:<br /><img src="C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\2007-07-18_DJ_27.jpg" height="240" width="360" />

No spaces between the text, line break tag and img tag.

Still not working even if I use the full path. I don't know if it's a macintosh thing. I will try to edit in Windows. Thanks for the help Brooklyn! Smiley

Make sure you're using a text editor that saves in regular text format.  This is what I saw when I opened the file:

I've gone through and recompiled Jeopardy and Gameshow Maker to bring them up to speed with the new operating systems/devices, so that should hopefully iron out any fullscreen issues some people have been having.  I've also taken the opportunity to add HTML/images to the original Jeopardy Maker, as that was a long requested feature there.  And lastly, questions/answers files will automatically be trimmed to avoid issues where extra rows show up from blank lines.


I'm also looking to build a more stable community around these tools if there are any web/product developers out there willing to help with this.  I realize after the long hiatus in updates that I should probably be passing the torch on maintaining and supporting these programs.  Please contact me if you might be interested.

I have downloaded this over 10 x and I can't get it to work.  I'm new to mac so I don't know if I'm just doing something wrong or if its something else.  I had to get a coteditor app in order to open it but now all it does is give me a list of file codes.  I even changed the file line " load setup " and it doesn't work still. what do i do now.  please help need to make jeopardy game or " smarter than a 5th grader game ASAP.

I was wondering if there is currently any way to have a separate sound for the final answer? I've made a Mario version with a friend that I use and I'd like to be able to use a different sound than just the right or wrong sounds for the rest of the game.

On a side note: thank you for making this program! It has been an enjoyable review game for my students in elementary and middle school.

Hi, if you open the setup.txt, look for these lines:
finalsound1=sounds/bonus1.mp3 // Sound for final question 1
finalsound2=sounds/bonus2.mp3 // Sound for final question 2

There are two sounds that fire and each can be pointed to a different file.

Thanks for the reply.  I tried using those before, but both sounds seem to fire off at the same time during the final question. I was wanting to have a different sound trigger on the answer slide. I figure I can just use the "wrong answer" sound for that since I haven't used it during game play to give a different sound for the final answer.

I'm not sure if you're still developing Gameshow Maker. I'm using it in China as a volunteer with the Peace Corps. Other volunteers have used it, and a Chinese colleague has also started using it (with questions in both English and Chinese).

I understand that if I want to have a question as audio, I must do that externally. What might be useful, though, would be a small toggle switch where I could temporarily disable the question sound when I have to switch to an external program.

The current setup is that I must go into one of the setup files and change the question sound so it is blank, restart the program, exit it, re-enable the question sound, and restart again.

As I'd like to do a mixture of audio and non-audio questions, this would be useful i.e. a toggle button while playing the game that could switch the question music on or off depending on the type of question being asked.
