Map Problem
 

im trying to make a map for some levels i made i have the bigmap.txt but when i press 'M' in editor all it makes is a black screen :( any ideas:confused:

*bump* (no one else bump the thread unless you post something usefull or its near the bottom and i havent got help yet :()

post the txt....maybe you typed something wrong?

carefully read this

Step One - Put all levels in one folder
Step Two - Make a txt file and name it bigmap.txt
Step Three - Delete all existing bigmap.txt (so that Graal doesn't use the wrong one)
Step Four - Type in the txt file, all of the level names like this:

"world_aa-01.graal","world_ab-01.graal","world_ac-01.graal","world_ad-01.graal","world_ae-01.graal"
"world_aa-02.graal","world_ab-02.graal","world_ac-02.graal","world_ad-02.graal","world_ae-02.graal"
"world_aa-03.graal","world_ab-03.graal","world_ac-03.graal","world_ad-03.graal","world_ae-03.graal"

(Each line is one row on the map)

Step Five - Save the txt file in the same folder as the levels
Step Six - Double click one of the levels from the folder it's in. Don't open Graal through Training mode, it will use tutorialmap.txt instead of bigmap.txt
Step Seven - Press M
Step Eight - Change the image from 16 bit to 8 bit colors.

make sure the levels on the map dont have any setmap or setminimap commands in them or graal will have a error

actually that doesnt affect anything

what i do is make the txt file as he explained, put a "setmap graalmap.png(dont ask why),bigmap.txt,0,0" save, then restart, open that level, press M, and it will generate

well, each time I go through training mode first, i get a black map which is the exact same size as the training mode map.
