oh also i have a certain tile set, but when i try and create a new level with it it goes back to default,

i have the originall tileset but only when i load the level

how can i save a tile set (give me step by step if you are nice to take the time) and load it when i need to?

Put backgrounds in gish/texture/ as 32-bit targa (how to do that depends on your image editor). Put tiles as 32-bit targa (with a size that is a power of 2, such as 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, etc) in gish/tilexx/texture/textyyy.tga. You'll find them in tileset xx - 1. Selected tiles are stored inside the level so you don't need to distribute those.
I rarely check this forum anymore. Feel free to send me a PM if you want my attention.

The first problem is that you saved it as 256. There can be at most 256 tiles numbered 0-255, so 256 is out of range.
