  Oops, looks like a mistake in the template. Fixed for the next build.

  Could you post what the solution was so other users using search know what the answer was? It sounds like a graphics card driver problem.

  It's a technical limitation in the arcade. Hopefully the new version of the arcade will remove the limitation.

  Tobye - which OS are you using and what card do you have? Try identifying your card and manually locating the right driver instead of auto-detecting. Or, last resort, go for a reinstall of Windows, and update the drivers as soon as it's set up.

  Internet Explorer 8 doesn't support HTML5 games! If you are using IE8, then we will close this as won't fix - time to get a better browser.

  In the Construct 2 engine, you are not allowed to modify the SOL of any object types other than the self type unless the type you want to modify is given in an object parameter, so this is by design. If arbitrary modifications were allowed, we would have to turn off a very important optimisation that prevents a slowdown proportional to the number of objects in the project.

  I wouldn't have thought any of the r161 changes would have affected shaders. Post a minimal .capx showing the problem to the bugs forum if you want further investigation.

  Transparency should work fine with tiled backgrounds, there's no setting for it.

  delgado - try pressing 'reset dialogs' in preferences.

  Closing as can't reproduce, sounds most likely to be a config issue with your own computer.

  It could be a driver problem. Are your graphics card drivers up to date? Is it the same on other systems?

  No, of course not. They are just automated code review suggesting to make your code tidy (not actual functional differences - see how it warns about spacing and such), but the code is auto-generated and minified/obfuscated by Google Closure Compiler, so it will only tell you nonsense. Ignore it.

  Port scanners won't help you. They'll just show you what your router exposes to the open web, rather than your internal LAN configuration.
