Hey Guys I'm having a problem making a WAD

[Nicko]

I'm using SlumpED and XWE WAD Editor,

Problem 1.
Why is it that everytime I make a new WAD and save it, I open it up the next day, and it's all black and white, that's normal but, why is it that when I edit it from there, the WAD has problems in game?

Problem 2.
What file type do I put the pictures in for the editor?

If you could tell me what to do, or give a link, that would be great guys Thanks alot ^^

The SRB2 wiki is your friend and I'm pretty sure it can help you with this problem.

Also, if your using SlumpEd, get Slade, which is the new version of SlumpEd.

I looked at the SRB2 Wiki, it's not helping :(

Problem 2 Solution: The file format for pictures is: .bmp

 

[Nicko]

Thanks, so have you found the soloution for the first problem?

 

[jloy1]

Um, if it doesn't work in game, have you turned wad cleanup off in the XWE settings?

 

[Nicko]

O_O Nope
That must be why, huh XD
Thanks mate! ^^

 

[jloy1]

And the Black and White...
The only reason I can think of is the wad selected for XWE isn't srb2.srb or srb2.wad.

 

[Nicko]

Ok thanks mate! ^^
I'm gonna lock this now.

Uh.. Question:
Are you trying to make Character or Map wads?

If you're trying to make Map wads, use either SRB2 Doom Builder or Workbench(if you can get it).

If you're trying to make Characters. fine use XWE/SlumpED.

If you had stated this before sorry I didn't read it then. But IIRC you didn't tell us what type of wad you're trying to make. So I don't think I can help you too much about it.

Well, read the first line of the first post, and you'll see. Also, he already solved the problem, as the last post would have told you.

and slumped is outdated and unsupported goddamnit why do people even mention it anymore

 

[M[T]P]

Yes but reading it during the night is kinda making me go rushy if you know what I meant.
I'll just lay off during nights.
But yeah I know it's solved, so sorry about that.

And SlumpED is no longer supported? I don't even know that. :o
I thought both XWE and SlumpED are still supported, well now that proves I'm wrong.

Not by the author. He made SLADE 3, which is basically SLumpEd without bugs and with more features.

I still HAVE to use SlumpEd simply because this "Slade" that everyone talks about refuses to work for me. Kind of disappointing, because I wanted to check it out, too.

And what about XWE?

Meh, I use it sometimes, I just don't always like the Auto Save feature.

What exactly doesn't work? Also, have you tried this download instead?

 

[Nicko]

Ok guys I already fixed the problem no need to keep talking about it

No I hadn't but it worked for me. I had been having some problem with a messed up .dll file, but the one you linked doesn't have that problem. Thanks!
