GraalEditor.exe and loading levels

[haro41]

when I load a .nw file by double clicking it, it doesnt load the level. I attached a picture of what happened when i double clicked a level called new1.nw on my desktop.
the name of the opened file is documents? maybe its reading documents and settings, and messing up when it hits that space in the name.
I can open levels if I drag the file directly onto the program window. And out of RC, but I would rather have it working normally. Anyone else have this problem?

When I double click .nw's or .graal's I get an error message. Never happened before, though. This means that I'm forced to open levels by opening the client ---> Pressing editor ---> Pressing open ---> Finding file ----> Opening file.

Rather annoying, really.

And you can't double-click GraalEditor.exe why...?

Iv never had this problem, or anything like that. Seems extremely odd.

I think the point he is trying to make is that levels must be opened manually, not necessarily the editor.
I also have this problem - telling an nw file to open using GraalEditor just causes GraalEditor to open and show a new level.

Your association is set up incorrectly.

You want something akin to:

GraalEditor.exe "%1"

Not

GraalEditor.exe %1

PipBoy Extraordinaire is right! You hit the nail on the head! thanks Rick.


also I dont think mine did, but should Graal shop and GraalEditor set the filetype settings on your computer upon install?

Everytime I try to open a level it just opens up the v2 client. I try to change the open with but it doesn't change just stays the same..

Go into your Tools>Folder Options and change the association.

Mmh, I don't recall it ever doing that. It might be an option somewhere.

Would be good to add in the next version I guess
