Custom Tilesets??
« on: July 11, 2010, 01:43:41 »
I want to make my own tilesets to use in my level. It's a .PNG file, in the right folder, named the right thing (I made it #249 for no specific reason), yet the default Tiletset #249 appears. I didn't make it, say, #257 because the instructions say it's supposed to be between 1 and 255. Help!

Be absolutely sure you've spelled everything correctly. The tileset should be in .\Worlds\[your world folder]\Tilesets\Tileset249.png

Also, make sure you set the right tileset to number 249. If you have Tileset A visible, and you change tileset B, you won't see any change at all.

Make sure there's no full tiles of trasparency, cause it will kill itself O_o and just won't work.

Just find the empty tile and fill it. Add a 24x24 grid and it's easy  :)

If there are transparent tiles it will say "warning there are transparent tiles." iPenguin said:

Also, the folder is "Tilesets", not "Tileset". I've made that mistake one too many times. X)

It should be mentioned that as far as I can tell, it does nothing else (which makes me wonder why that was added in the first place).

I think it had to do with trying to prevent people from accidentally placing transparent tiles, which use unneeded rendering time.

It makes it very difficult to work. :P
