"Offline Test" Target

haunter · #1 08-27-2005, 12:01 AM

Would it be possible/safe to add an option somewhere in the graal client that lets me choose a different target for the "Offline Test" button?

I'd like to choose one of my own level files... It has some 'staff' tools in it, a tiledef NPC, and links to all of my projects. It just makes it easier to get to where I want to go.

Would this pose a security problem?

It would pose a security problem, and that security problem was the exact reason GraalEditor.exe was made into a seperate executible.

I think he just wants it to start GraalEditor.exe but with his own level specified, not sure.

No, I wanted the offline test button to open up a specific level... But since it's causes a security flaw, nevermind.

Isn't that what I said? o_O

That isn't a security flaw. You guys are flawed.

Anyway, you should be able to run GraalEditor.exe with an argument, say:

GraalEditor.exe filename.nw

And it will automagically open that in the editor. Then just click play. :P

(Doesn't GraalEditor associate .nw files to itself?)

Yeah, but I wanted the actual "Offline Test" button on the login screen to open to an offline level of my choosing... In play mode. I'll just double click the .nw file I want and press P.

It's still not a flaw, it's opening a separate program and not running the level in the client itself.
