Don't try Gonstruct until you can use the default editor.

I'm on a Mac and therefore cannot use the default editor.
They should make an editor for the Mac, that does not need the testing of the default to use, as stated prior to this message.

Well actually maybe About the Mac, they could Port gonstruct to the iPad, and make it like some ringtone apps, that store your tone, but you need to conect it to a PC to get your levels on the server

Uh, why would I want a level editor on my iPad? Porting Gonstruct to Objective-C would be a huge task, too.

Isn't Objective-C++ a thing

All development is halted until someone sends me a free ipad to test on, though

I could have sworn the SDK included a iPhone or iPad simulator. Tho I remember needing a mac to run xcode and having to pay a developer fee of $99.

Would link to apple's website but not sure if I'm allowed to post external links here.

Don't bother, I wasn't being entirely serious.

I don't really have any desire to continue working on gonstruct. It's been a while since I was personally invested in editing levels, and at least I was hoping that someone else from the graal community might jump on the project and keep it going and was rather disappointed that no one did, though I don't know how fry feels about it.

Cripes, it's been a while.

You did get that sorted out, right? Short of some bizarre bugs, this would mean that you somehow set D:\ as your graal directory and gonstruct is trying to index your recycle bin. While that error is definitely something we should be handling, you can probably avoid it if you nuke your probably gonstruct settings and choose a small graal directory the next time.

Me and Mallard (DrakilorP2P) tried, but it turns out it's 99.9% impossible to compile on Windows.

Out of curiosity (I haven't done any programming on Windows years), what's the hurdles? Getting gtkmm and boost setup?

I remember having difficulties installing boost before on windows. Sadly I no longer have my linux partition as my hard drive stopped working on me.. =/ And I needed windows for certain things that wine just wasnt capable of doing and I didnt have the time to setup a VM workstation..

I think the main problem was getting boost to work, I can't remember for sure. There were so many different errors, and whenever we solved one thing, another problem arose. Just following the instructions you/fry left definitely does not work.

I tried fixing that bug by just swallowing all the filesystem errors from inaccessible directories etc and found a bug in boost in the process. Welp!

I pushed the code but I haven't tested it since I don't exactly have a graal directory to test with anymore. If you wanna compile it from the repository, good luck!
