Im really having trouble learning the ropes, literally.
Ok, bad joke. But seriously, I cant get ropes to work the way I want them to, they always end up attached to gish. And never where I actually want them to go.
Is there somthing that Im missing?

In the rope editor (F4) you can attach ropes, chains, pistons and bars to objects you created in the object editor (F3). In gisheditor.txt you can find how to create the kind you want.

Pistons are extending/contracting springs.
(in reality they're something close to that)

Don't try this at home!
- Add an anchor
- Add a 1x1 block 4 tiles below the anchor
- Connect a push piston from the anchor to the top left anchor of the block
- Connect a pull piston from the anchor to the top right anchor of the block
- Set the mass of the block to 10
- Add an area switch 4 left and 3 down from the block
- Link it from the anchor
- Set the anchor RGB to 100,2,10
- Make the anchor a flickering omni light (because of "NOTE: Anchors with pistons shouldnt be used as lights." in gisheditor.txt)

Don't put the texture files in the gish folder- put the texture FOLDERS in the gish folder. That is, put the folders tile01, tile02, tile03, tile04, tile05, tile06, and tile07 in the C:/program files/gish directory (or wherever you installed it). Also put gished.exe in the C:/program files/gish directory. Then open gished.exe, start your game file, select new level, and press f1 to start the editor. You'll probably want to read the readme file that came in the original zip file to learn how to use it.

Anyone knows what happens with deformedblock.png?
I use 4 pistons, 2 of which are connected to the left and right pointing up, and the other 2 crossed pointing down. I'm sure my math for R was OK, and GB are exactly the same.

Jonathan, for your weird block on pistons, I think you meant an RGB of 2,1,100. If you do that, you get lots of weirdness! One question: are block supposed to be able to stretch? ;)

No you're not.
I noticed that pistons move a little bit less than you ask them to. For example, if I printf the result of some double calculations I get 5.935509, rounded up to 5.94 (can't fit more precise in the textbox), but the piston only comes close (about 0.06 tiles) to its supposed destination. The minor impact of gravity would only help it come closer to the destination.
5.94+0.06==6.0, and looking closely that actually seems to happen... not really accurate. I guess this has to do with the my platform problem? (scroll up a bit)

It's kinda a game, there's this bridge, and you have to make as much ropes break without breaking the whole bridge
It's pretty fun, I forgot to save it though
Oh well, it's not that hard to make it again.

You can load backup.lvl then, but yes, it's annoying. Restarting the level instead would be better. Would be nice for collection too...
- How about a strength/mass ratio for objects?
- Density checks should try to find how much of an object is in a dense block, instead of just corners (if I observed that right). There aren't many objects in water after all, so it can't really degrade performance.
- About the char issue with objects: using a short indicating the number of objects and chars or shorts in objects depending on that number would be better than what I said a post ago.

- Let a 16x16 table with the tileset (should be clickable) pop up when you hold some key.
- Make a higher resolution let you see more of the level.

They thought of that: If you die (or quit the editor) and haven't saved your level, start the editor again, and load 'backup.lvl' (I think, I don't have the documentation in front of me). That should give you back your level. I guess if you edit the new level first, it gets overwritten, so don't do that...

Replays of custom maps don't save!
Also, I can't figure out how to correctly adjust the alpha of tiles with complex shapes, like the lava-wave tiles. Changing the alpha (with 'a') of things like lava or water also removes the transparency, which I would prefer didn't happen.

i've also tried to send the keypress event via the window manager
and i borrowed an us keyboard from a friend, but no success.
the object seems to exist, because gish can climb on it, but it is invisible.

| Don't try this at home! - Add an anchor - Add a 1x1 block 4 tiles below the anchor - Connect a push piston from the anchor to the top left anchor of the block - Connect a pull piston from the anchor to the top right anchor of the block - Set the mass of the block to 10 - Add an area switch 4 left and 3 down from the block - Link it from the anchor - Set the anchor RGB to 1,100,2 - Make the anchor a flickering omni light (because of "NOTE: Anchors with pistons shouldnt be used as lights." in gisheditor.txt) JONATHAN IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO TARBALLS, WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, TARBALLS BEING HEAVY. |

| ok, i extracted all the winzip files for the gish editor into my gish folder, but whn i click on it, it says (and i quote) "This application has failed to start because SDL.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem" |
Make sure Gished and the tilesets are directly in the Gish folder, not in a subfolder (like the one it came in).
do i have to re-download yhe editor? how come it did this in the first place? i do NOT want to read 100 something text files, espeically tga (I have photoshop ><).
The tgas are just the textures.

yeah, the gished is right under the Gish file, yeah, the actual file...i kinda realized the tgas were textures a bit after i posted. but hte gish demo (which i kept after i installed Gish for some reason) had SDL.dll and when it ried copying and pasting it into the gish folder, it opened but didnt really do anthing. the gish folder doesnt have that dll! WHAT DO I DO!!?!?! AAAAH! yoink.

Gished.app/Contents/MacOS/Gish isn't executable by default. Maybe you should package it in a dmg?

- When you click exit in e.g. the tile editor you also 'click' on the tile you are then on with the cursor. Workaround: esc
- Every two times I reload (F9-F7) the level some tile textures (including the alpha channel) are garbage. Am I the only one having this problem?
- ROFL! (tried negative mass)
- Did you know you can zoom in/out with -/+? (CL: can't scrolling speed be proportional to that? And how about several zoom levels, ranging from the whole level to a few tiles?)
- Maybe some gisheditor.txt-like text (only the relevant part) could be shown if you hold down H?
- Q:How do you get the slowest level in the world? A:Add 20 circles and connect them to each other.
- If you want to go to the start quickly, go to sim (F1), press F5, and immediately go to the editor again (F1).
- Crashes at 5.0 drag...
- Those pistons are strangely fun!
- Try asynchronous pistons!
- Annoying: you can click on (not through) a 0% opaque part of the 'palette'.
- Why are there three textures for bars/pistons which all look the same?
- Fast scroll would be handy.
- ... and a "center on this tile" key.
- Is it just me or did extra lives become tiles with a border?
- Depending on their mass objects are underwater or not, but there's nothing in between!
I like that editor...
P.S. This is the zillionth edit.

gisheditor.txt has the majority (If not all) of the info on gish editing you'll ever need.

(I don't know if this reply will work or not, as I can't view page 5 of this thread)
The links to download the editor (on the first page of this thread) no longer work. Is the editor supposed to be included with the 1.3 patch? I don't see it in gish_1_3_patch.tar.gz.

Oh, it's built into the game now. Fancy ;)
(For other people who ask the same thing: Start Gish, select "Start" on the front menu, choose a player, and then choose "New level". This will put Gish in a rather bland room. Press F1 to start/stop editing the level)
