I need a required folder to run Alice - what is this?

I downloaded Alice off the internet and I cannot use it. Whenever I try to open it, it comes up with: "The Alice program expects a folder called 'Required' to be next to it when Alice runs. Alice did not see that folder, and can not run." I am using the program WinZip to open Alice, as it is a zipped file... HELP!!I need a required folder to run Alice - what is this?
extract it by clicking the right button on the mouse and click "extract all"

then you can use that ALICE or whatever it is...........

Can someon help me with the 'Alice' program?

I would like to make a animation in alice (the program from carnagie mellon) but my english teacher doesnt have the software. Is there a way that I could, like save it as a video (as opposed to a .a2w) and copy it a disk/flash drive?Can someon help me with the 'Alice' program?
At this moment there isn't a way to save it as a movie file. You can however do one of two things. you can:

1: save it as a webpage applet (File %26gt; Export as a Web Page)

2: use an external video capture program.



Be sure to check my sources for more information.

"Programming with Alice"?

I really need help with this Thing.

It's an assigment called Gallop and Jump, and I dont know How to get the girl to sit on the horse and for the horse to move and Jump.

I'm trying to teach myself prgramming But I cant figure this on out.

DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEA HOW TO DO THIS?

(IF YOU HAVE THE BOOK IT'S ON PAGE 110



Thanks"Programming with Alice"?
In case you are unaware of it, you may get more responses by posting your questions on the Alice Community Forum at http://www.alice.org/community/



You will also find free online Alice programming tutorials at http://www.dickbaldwin.com/tocalice.htm"Programming with Alice"?
I don't have the book at home. But try the "as seen by", people always forget that option.



You have to click the horse and then the properties you want drag over. First try to get the horse to move, then the girl to move up onto horse.



Its hard to say without being there. Keep playing around. Also, look on the CD that came with the book, lots of answers are there.

I need some good tutorials or references for the programming language "Alice" by Carnegie Mellon.?

any ebooks, or free online tutorial/references would be great.

How do you prevent objects from colliding on Alice?

In Alice, the program, I am creating a maze game.The person must make it through the maze without touching the sides within a certain time period.

The challenging part is how to inform Alice that the character is within a certain distance from the maze. [Within Threshold] works for smaller objects, but not for larger objects with greater length.

The maze does not have walls, but is just one large entity.

How do I prevent the character I am using from touching the walls of the maze?How do you prevent objects from colliding on Alice?
sorry I haven't used Alice since freshman year in college. But I remember our saying for said class: Alice is a dirty dirty girl. I feel your pain.



It may be that the [within threshold] function you are talking about is distance to the middle of the object rather than to its circumference. if this is the case, try making the walls shorter and stack them next to each other.



Or you can try putting an invisible object at each end of the wall and write the program so the character cannot go between the object.



Alice was a good way to visualize object oriented programming, but when I used it years ago it was horrible at complex functionality. I had to write a game for my intro to computer engineering class. I broke Alice a couple of times writing it. I think i have it laying around. Its a RPG. Ill post it if I can find it.



good luck

    Sorry that I cannot give you a better answer.

    How do I import models into Alice?

    I just got the Alice 3D animation program and would love some help understanding it. If anyone is familiar, I would like to know how and where to find and import models. The ones Alice has are a bit to cartoonish. Also, collision. I have a moving car, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it react with walls and ramps. Im using it for my computer programming course. If you answer these questions be prepared for a few more :D Please help.How do I import models into Alice?
