want to add river road to flare
Sunday, December 15, 2013 - 05:06
hi im trying to add the river road map to flare because i can modd it but every thing is black like in shown in the previos post on the problem with the mod and i get this out of the terminal (because i run it via the terminal) "Could not open text file: ./tileset_grassland.txt"
also i cant open the normal maps ex. fontier_plains.txt with tiled i get this:
Error loading tileset ../../../tiled/dungeon/tiled_collision.png, which expands to /home/pi/Desktop/flare.0.19/mods/alpha_demo/maps/../../../tiled/dungeon/tiled_collision.png. Path not found!
why?
by the way using raspberry pi (Linux)
A dumb question maybe, but have you checked that the files are in the correct directory?
ive figured it out it was the file's directory search but i still cant open default maps with tiled

The reason you're getting those errors in Flare and the black screen is because we changed some of the filename syntax. We include parent directories in file paths now.
The txt map files in Flare are exported versions of the Tiled maps. Tiled uses tmx files. The tmx file for River Road is here: https://raw.github.com/RyanDansie/flare-mod-noname/master/tiled/new%20ga...
You'll need to update the references to filenames when editing that with Tiled. To see how current maps work, try taking a look at some of these: https://github.com/clintbellanger/flare-game/tree/master/tiled/frontier
When you're done editing, be sure to export the map (File -> Export As) and select "Flare Map Files". This will output a txt map that's compatible with Flare.
