RTCEditor 0.1 rev.5 ALPHA Released into the wild
Well I think it is time to release the first ALPHA of the editor I have been working on to the community. I do have a couple of things to say before anyone gets their hopes too high :-
First off, as this is an ALPHA release it is not the finished product. In fact there is still loads of things I want to do with it, but the very basic ground work is here so you will be able to get a "look and feel" test going and hopefully feedback from that will get an editor that everyone likes to use.
As it is not finished, there are menus that do not work (including the load and save functions - so it is in no state to be designing entire dungeons in whatsoever). Having said that it will export an RTC text file (Note: Currently it will only export to c:\test.txt) and you can have a basic dungeon up and running in no time at all
Second, there are bugs (known and unknown ones in ther) please report them to this forum with the topic prefix "RTCEditor Bug - " and a brief description of the problem.
So without further ado:
Version is now out of date, see later posts
1. Unzip the file to a folder (note: if you unzip it to c:\rtceditor it should work straight out of the box as it were) if not you will need to edit the INI file and put the path in where you have installed it.
2. Edit the RTCEditor.INI to make sure you are happy with the screenres, dungeon limitations, and other settings then save it
3. Run rtceditor.exe (and thats it)
Requests
- Please can you report any bugs to this forum with a subject prefix of "RTCEd Bug - "
- Please can you report any suggestions to this forum with a subject prefix of "RTCEd Suggestion - "
- Any constructive criticism is welcome (no good saying its crap without suggesting a way to put it right and all that )
I am nervous, its the first thing Ive released to the public before and Im hoping it doesnt disappoint anyone. People can use this topic for general feedback and discussion. I will check in on here regularly.
Feel free to email me, MSN me or drop me a PM here. Email address is in my profile.
Good luck and I hope you enjoy it
