Tiles
 

hi, im trying to use my tileset for my sever Final Resort and they wont work in editor, what do i do?

Is it 8 bit?
did you use
addtiledefs tilesetname,,1;
?

8bit .png?

Get IrfanView, and reduce the tileset to 256 colors before saving. You have to do that if you want to use it in the editor.

IrfanVeiw? wtf? if you have that could you d that for me?

I can see era tiles already? Wth man D: And i thought it was vietnam style

era tiles?! and i dunno wat vietnam tles would be... would it be like debree?

Do you know "Google"? Its a pretty helpful guy, you just have to throw words at him and he will tell you things about them if he knows anything.

lol i did that with an M16.

I think you should draw inspiration from games such as Battlefield: 'Nam and Vietcong.

um how do i make 8-bit .png?

I use photoshop, which you probably don't use, so it'd be no use me telling you. Usually, though, you've just got the option to do it from a drop-down menu when saving to the web.

i got vista, my other computer with a broken monitor has photoshop and all my files.

Use IrfanView, it supports converting to 8bit and it does it the nice way.

.....Switch(hehe) the monitors? Seriously XD

laptop. im suing my moms laptop. (no im not 30. im younger than you think ;D)
im trying to use addtiledef2, but i cant get my images to wokr on editor still...
ill post te images.

Here is script incase its wrong. (ace helped me with making it work on server, he provided template.

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (playerenters)

  {

  removetiledefs;

  addtiledef ace_tileset_template.gif,final,1;

  addtiledef2 tiles_outside.png,final,512,192;

  addtiledef2 wall_tiles.png,final_,512,320;

}

---

Still wont work offline since the small images are still 24 bit.

im gonna google IrifanVeiw

(edit) NO WAY AM I PAYING 19 DOLLARS FOR A YEAR OF WHAT ILL NEVER USE

(edit2) if i drag it into the gif2mng will that work?

It's IrfanView, and it's freeware. Its name is also the domain for the website, just look it up.

Btw Knightmare?
For on servers you shouldnt make a local script, use a global one...

well, Ace scripted the tiles for the PW. just cant get it to work on editor

and someone deleted that script so i kinda need someone to help... i cant addtiledef2 online..

What's the filename of the tileset?

aces blank one? my blank one wouldnt work... neither would any of mine..

He didnt ask you if it worked :P just the name!
In offline tilesets cant be more then 8 bit
online they cant be more then 16? Im not sure about that last.

online they can be anything 32 bit PNG, 2 bit PNP, JPG, GIFS, .dds, Graal Image support is almost limitless. Also Images larger than 256kb dont work in the Offline editor, supposedly but, I got larger images to work.

I think it's better off with him sticking to 8-bit PNGs though.

If he is qualified to run a playerworld.

Its art to not be able to google up freeware software and be able to dload it.. thats so sad... Go back to school kid, spend your time learning instead of wasting it.
