Windows GameSalad - 'Invalid Path'
![Oliverw1](http://forums.gamesalad.com/applications/dashboard/design/images/defaulticon.png)
Hi there
I'm currently having an issue with the windows version of GameSalad (This is my first time using it, so it may just be me being rubbish) - But I'm trying to follow this
tutorial (left/right platformer movement with TShirtBooth) and I'm stuck trying to add Player>Motion>Linear>X or Y. It keeps showing as 'invalid path'. I'm trying to make up, down, left, right movement, and it's not working.
Here's some screenshots of what I've got atm - Just ask if it's not clear enough/I'm not doing it right

i always get invalid path when i try to adjust movement attributes on an actor by selecting it in the actor menu, i have to always unlock the actor an place the movement atributes on them in the scene, then after i finish the actor in the scene, i can group everything, save it to my custom rules, then drag that onto the actor in the actor menu, when i look a it it will say invalid path, but as soon as i drag it onto the scene all the things will be filled in corectly

Also, please be aware that GS Creator for Windows is in beta, so there could be some issues, and your job, as a betatester is to report them to the GS team, so they can fix them, before the official release of this engine.
