I've been feeling guilty about the bug in The Adventures of Johnny Ray, so I've been trying to fix it. But I keep running into new problems!
I think I know what the bug is now, at least. When you change a cinematic block into a relic, the game crashes. I think. I saw a post about it a while ago that might have said the same thing.
So I can just change the trigger, right, and the game will be OK? Nope. Now when I edit the game, it has a whole load of new bugs in it. This is probably due to me not having the right trigger pack or something when i edit the file - so all the triggers I don't have get deleted from the game.
All I wanted to say was, sorry for all these years for subjecting you to a game with a fatal bug in it. Hopefully the workaround I gave on the game's description page was adequate.
Why not replace cinematic blocks with invisible objects?

Thought I'd release the cheats for you all to enjoy:
Type 'gimme teh cheets' to activate the cheat system.
Type 'ride me' to ride about on a horse. Type 'heigh ho' to teleport to inside the mine. Type 'i can see my house from here' to teleport to Barleybrawl town. Type 'reinfire' to begin a meteor shower on Barleybrawl town. <----MY FAVOURITE Type 'barleybrawl bar brawl' to turn each team against each other. Type 'nosy git' to reveal the map. Type 'eyeball poppin' to go blind. Type 'space invaders' for Barleybrawl to be invaded. Type 'if you can't go to venice' to sail around Barleybrawl. Type 'please release me' to have the gates open for you. Type 'King Jared' to be granted the power to 'ban' people from their lives (click on people to kill them). Type 'i'm dreaming of a shite christmas' for December 25th.
And don't forget the mandatory 'TROJAN HORSE FOR SALE' for the screwed up stamina system.
And the passwords for the unlockables:
Password for the 1st folder is 'bananas' Password for the 2nd folder is 'yo' Password for the 3nd folder is 'methatsyou'. It was extremely difficult to find. I think it required the killing of Eileen (Johnny's girlfriend) at the end of the game. This would cause Johnny to faint and find himself inside his own mind - which was in the form of a desert island. Johnny's super-ego (strangely called 'greyshark') would tell Johnny to wake up, since his friends needed him. But if you escaped your super-ego's power long enough (>1 minute), a 'forgotten memory' would fly past in the shape of a pegasus. Cicking on this would tell you that 'the level 3 password? That's between me and you'. This rather cryptic clue actually meant that the password was the word 'thats' inbetween the words 'me' and 'you'. After all this trouble, the level 3 unlockable was actually just a picture of moi.
The Vandaal was supposed to have a guest appearance as a 'huge lingerie seller on the path outside Barleybrawl'. But for some reason it didn't work. I think he got turned into a stall instead.

The game was perfect until this error, haha.
I seriously wish you'd make something else as great as this. Doesn't even need to be as big or anything..

Just like to say - you're my idol buddy. You drove me to do most of things that Steak and I have accomplished... I've always wanted to say that
Anyway, couldn't just make the cinematic block a revealer? ~ Khan

(To clarify, the bug occurs when a cinematic block changes into a relic.)
Some people have suggested a different object could be used instead of the cinematic block. Undoubtably this, or any other solution, would work, but I can't seem to edit the johnny ray file without a load of other triggers messing up. I don't think I have the right trigger addon pack installed.
Maybe in the future I will create another AOM game... it'll have to be after my final year uni exams, though, which are in early May this year.
That doesn't make sense because triggers carry on in the scenario file. If you delete them you won't get it back but they will be there to begin with. So I dunno.
