Re: Map making
I need a hand now
. I'm going with the turtial, and it has the picture of the home, but mine looks a tad different. Is it just the Tiled version?

Re: Map making
The maps reference the tiles (the graphics that they are composed of). You probably did not unzip the downloaded archive but just opened the home.tmx from inside the zip. Therefore the tiles are not extracted and not found.
Solution might be to unzip the whole downloaded sources by something like right click "unzip to folder". Then navigate to the unzipped files.

Re: Map making
That's good info. It's changed since last time I was doing real map making. Thanks!rijackson741 wrote: Thu Feb 13, 2020 4:49 pm For a more expansive guide, see here: https://andorstrail.com/viewtopic.php?f ... 637#p46637
Despite what the guides say, use Tiled only for the graphics layers of the map, and the walkable layer. All map events, spawn areas, etc, should be added using ATCS.

Re: Map making
Okay, A slight problem. How do I get NPC's? The tutorial said it was a tutorial on it's own and didn't explain it.

Re: Map making
If you want to place NPCs on your maps then you will have to use ATCS.

Re: Map making
Have you installed ATCS? if not, you need to do this. You can not get very far without it.
