Published game is just a black screen

[Carm3D]

Hello,

I did a successful bit of animation in Leadwerks.  I tried publishing it as a standalone but it does not resemble what I see when when running the "game" from Leadwerks.  It just shows a black screen.  I tried exporting to Steam Workshop and it gave the same result.  Black screen.  Any suggestions?

Have you changed the mapname in the menu.lua file? you need to set the name you have given your first map into the menu.lua at line 400-407.

In menu.lua find text start.map and replace it with your map name

I changed three instances of "start" (one starting with upper-case S) to begin.  The game still runs fine in Leadwerks but publishes out to a black screen still. :/

No man, only this one instance ":Load(Maps/begin.map.)" leave the rest as it was.

Hmm...  I put the two other begins back to start.  Still no good.  All black.  Not that there's anything wrong with black.. Black is beautiful.

The mapname needs to be correct with lower and upper cases.

if self.newbutton:GetText()=="NEW GAME" then
					if Map:Load("Maps/begin.map") then
						prevmapname = "start"
						
						--Send analytics event
						Analytics:SendProgressEvent("Start",prevmapname)
						
						self.newbutton:SetText("RESUME GAME")
					end
				end

This works for me. make a screenshot of your scene in LW.

Yeah...  Mine looks just like that now.  Here's the scene you requested:
