Level Editor

[Kohola_KinG]

When i close level editor i get the follow error "runtime error 216 at 00005AF2" and the only way to get rid of this is by restarting my computer. I tried to add eras tileset to it but it never worked and now everytime i try to close it i get this.

How do i get rid of this and get eras tileset on the offline tile editor??

[scriptless]

use, removetiledefs command or open your graal folder and go to levels/tiledefs and delete it. The error is giving you a memory address and a error number. You can't ctrl+alt+del and get rid of the error without restarting?

[Kohola_KinG]

Removed the folder and went back on.. Closed and got the same error. ctrl+alt+delete will delete it but it opens back up again.

[Kohola_KinG]

I figured out how to get it working without the runtime error coming up when i close it. I must open it with the windows service pack enabled. No idea why it would ever be disabled in the first place?

One last problem though, when i put the era tileset into the npc to get the tiles it doesn't work?

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
    if(created){
    removetiledefs;
    addtiledef era_tileset-summer-offline.png,,1;
    } 


What's wrong with it?

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
    if(created){
    removetiledefs;
    addtiledef tileset_era01-summer.png,,1;
    } 


Finally one that works...

Need help with one last thing.. As you can see i have attached both of them.. The tileset_era01-summer.png is the one i have on the offline tile editor but is it possible to get the era_tileset-summer-online_sept-2014.png on the offline one? I'm sure there is a way?

Just change The filename in The script, if The tileset doesnt work, The filé is probsbly to big to work offline

I changed the name and get a black line going across the screen. The file is only 460kb surely that's not to big for it?

Must be a way.

[zerxusgraal]

I dont remember The limit but try using Photoshop to decrease The colors

[BlueMelon]

Try saving the file as an 8-bit PNG

[Kohola_KinG]

I changed the file size and changed it to a PNG and put it in the script but it wont work. So it's nothing to do with file size? Any ideas?

[Kohola_KinG]

Finally worked it out.. Had to delete the old one and replace it with this one and now it's working.

I can't even open Level Editor anymore, and neither can a bunch of other people i've asked. I keep getting these errors. I've tried re-installing but that didn't help.

And to fix the errors when you close, I went into task manager and forced it to close.

This isnt a fix but, why don't you try and use the online editor. Its way better then the offline editor and people can work together.

I personally prefer the offline editor, so this does sound distressing although I haven't opened the editor in months myself.

[MysticalDragon]

The online editor is virtually the same, it's pretty awesome in my opinion.

i use it when i need something done quick, but it's much easier to save with GraalEditor.

i deleted the FILENAMECACHE and it opens now. i forgot that needs to be cleared out once in a while.

Online level editors (at least pix's) doesn't work proper for me. I, as well as others, have this problem where when you place tiles and highlight stuff where your mouse is pointing is not where the tile will end up. As a matter of fact it kinda shows you the tile offset quite a bit from where the mouse is. Until this is working 100% for everyone those of us still experiencing the problem, and on mac, are pretty much SOL on editing levels. We have to rely on editing it as a text file (.nw format only).

[MysticalDragon]

I only experienced that issue with gmaps.

[Kamaeru]

I prefer to make my levels to music, in solitude. I don't understand the need for an online editor really at all.

I agree, besides theres no decent level editor around / possible to make which works fluently. And live editing is just... meh

[Draenin]

The only thing I use Graaleditor for anymore is terrain maps. For everything else I usually use online editors.

Come to think of it I don't recall testing it on levels that were not on a gmap. That could be the issue. Still quite annoying if you ask me.

I have only seen the bug you're talking about happening on terrain maps. And that's because there is nothing in Pix's editor for dealing with z coordinates. Really hoping someone updates it with a fix for that, but I'm not holding my breath.

On a flat gmap, Pix's editor should work just fine if you have everything installed correctly. The fact that you can't create warp fields and signs with it, though, leaves something to be desired.

I haven't tested it on terrain maps. The bug can also be experienced on classic style servers. Tho I think also someone else it was working for and me it was not on the same server so I'm wondering if OS plays a role in it.
