I don't think WYSIWYG is all that great for level editing.
It has a lot of use in, say, an online text editor because there are hidden codes behind what you actually see... but with levels you're already seeing what you get. Minus light effects of course.

I mean... I can see what you mean about uploading and stuff, but I don't find it that much of a hassle. Considering if you open any file with RC, and save it will update automatically... I don't find it that big of a deal. The only time I think it'd be a hassle is with simple tile errors, in that case only a simple online tile editor would be needed. I just find the benefits of an actual executable to far outweigh the minuscule benefit of avoiding tedious uploading.

Now if RC allowed you to download folders instead of just files all this uploading would be a lot easier :P

Except when it crashes... which is every time I try to do that now, for no apparent reason.

Executable can't be collaborative!

P.S. I hate your signature

Never crashes for me!
And yes, executables can be collaborative, if they're open-source

P.S. Really? Check out my thread to Twinny in the OT section.

There is a good java versatile level editor with levels, someone would just have to write a plugin , its called "tiled" and is gpl software.
I tried it once but never really understood how .nw addresses the tiles.

Good way to get past the links

I agree, no need to reinvent the wheel, unless you are doing it for experience.
