Gish Editor

[Chronic Logic - Alex]

Most of the story mode stuff is hardcoded right now because I didn't have time to write a scenario editor.  I will write one soon, once someone makes enough good levels for it to be worth it :-)

Thanks for noticing the RGB values. Should be 100,2,10.

If objects have less mass they stretch more.

Then you can reinstall at a different location, copy SDL.DLL over to the old location and remove the rest.

K = show only current layer
678 = warp rects
shift-5678 = darker rects http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

Bug: some lights don't show up when zoomed out (try cave1).

Edit: might be a limit on the number of lights.

Edit again: limited to 8. Sorry, no bug.

Hi, I'm getting the hang of it now, took me ages to work out to press F5 to make it all work  http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> .

Just one question, is there any way of making tumbling blocks kill gish even if he is heavy?

If not, how do I make spikes?

Thanks
Oli

Bug: Editor crashes if you try to place more than 255 objects in one level. Large levels might need a lot of objects. http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

You don't have to uninstall - just install at a different location (I think the installer can?). You can http://www.chroniclogic.com/gish/gishdownload.htm" target="_blank">re-download the installer if you have deleted it.

Exception:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes:      KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x7e8b7e10
(as expected)

A byte designating the type (char or short - not int, long long, float, double or anything else you can think of) somewhere at the start and a check should help.

Annoying: when gish is a light source, he has a little dot (reflection) in the middle.

it says its been downloaded too many times.  the only person to dl it after me was my brother, and he had to have his computer ghosted afterwards.

Has anyone else been annoyed when you test out a level and die, which makes it exit the editor? Especially when you haven't saved  http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

No you're not. http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

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)

help

how comes the objects i place (with the F3 editor) dont have a texture?
they are just invisible, but they drop shadows.

i've put all the tile0? folders and gished in my gish folder.

its the linux version.

[edit] yes, i've tried to change the texture with '[' and ']' but nothing happens (it's a bit tricky to figure out the keys, when you don't have an us keyboard http://www.pontifex2.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='::'>)
