Mac Problem/Tile Issue
« on: June 06, 2009, 03:06:37 am »

So for the LIFE of me. The life. I cannot get any tile set to work.

I have tried going through the init folder.txt and changing all of that stuff, but found nothing.

the farthest I've gotten was it starts up and gives me a black screen. music is playing...but no game. I'm on a mac I downloaded the latest version. I want some tiles. I tried mike maydays and converted the .PNG to .BMP but it didn't work it gave me the same. then I found a thread here saying that if you download the guybrush one for windows then place the .exe for mac's in it would work no problem. i tried it and it didn't work.

I always just get a black screen

Does anyone have any tips for me? I played this game at a friends house and loved this game and want it with some tile sets.

You need to convert it into a 24-bit BMP, specifically.  I've found that the easiest way to do that is to get GIMP, since it allows you to specify.
