Tiled problem

Hi,

I would like to help out by making some maps and maybe scripting some quests when the new server is finished (I'm not a great programmer but can handle scripting). My problem is that when I load up tiled it loads fine but then the layer window takes up the whole screen. If I click the bar at the left (in between the toolbar and the layer window) it makes the actual map window about 3mm bigger but I still cannot see it.

Has anyone else had this problem/know how to fix it? Am I just being a mong?

Jaxx

Nevermind

I installed ubuntu instead of crappy fedora and it works fine now. Nevermind.

I'll get started on a couple of maps and submit them for consideration...

It's likely that you were not running Tiled using Sun's JVM. There are some problems with running Tiled using GCJ/GNU Classpath.

When I try to import the tilesets from ./tmw/updates into "Tiled"
I get "error while loading tileset invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence"
(I did first extract and changed extension of tileset to tsx instead of png)

Why the heck did you do this? The tilesets have to be kept as PNG images. Here again the instructions how to import tilesets from the mapping tutorial on the wiki:
To import a tileset select Tilesets->New Tileset and set the following options:
Name: (doesn't matter)
Tile width: 32
Tile height: 32 (64 for _x2 tilesets and 96 for _x3 tilesets. see below)
Reference tileset image: checked
Automatically create tiles from images: checked
Use transparent color: unchecked

Now push the browse button and browse to your TMW folder and then the sub folder /data/graphics/tiles/. Here you will find all tilesets that are used by TMW saved as PNG graphics. Select the one you want.

Well the reason I changed the extention, I tried teh png first, and it gave me:

"Error while loading /home/.../cave.png: No reader plugin exists for this file type."

xD

Btw, I got it now, I was trying "import tileset" in stead of "new tileset" so your copy paste of tutorial helped, I guess I overlooked that the first time.

I can't find the collision tiles, are they in the /.tmw/update map?
Edit, nevermind, QOAL told me :)
