Topic: Editor question

Hi,
I can't understand these things:

1)how to create correctly a custom tileset to be used in the editor?
2)how to make your custom tileset correctly visible and usable by players that play your map, on your server? (i have played in many maps with custom tilesets, but without having to download separately any .png file.)

Thanks very much

...and sorry for my beginner english.

Re: Editor question

1. tilest has to be 1024x1024 px; it's divided into 64x64 tiles; the upper left tile has to be blanc
2. you have to embed the image. (Open the map. Add an image; right click the image; choose embed)

I advise you to go through sebacis map tutorial. It's very good, if you wanna create maps.

This isn't totally right. Tilesets just have to be square images. Of course 1024x1024 looks great, but 512x512 is also good enough and better when using more embedded tilesets (at least that's the case in 0.4.2s slow map download rate).

And just some advice: Always make a backup of your map each time you're saving it, when mapping with 0.4.2.

Re: Editor question

It was originally intended to be a tee-killing tile, i think. smile It's not implemented though and doesn't do anything. But there is a mod where you can put tee-killing tiles. smile Not in original editor though.

*gnarf* did you read the announcments? You need not to hope, cause there will be unhookable tiles.
