this will be fixed in next weeks update. hold back on tofu levels till its up!

I'm a bit curious, why is there a 5 level requirement for creating chapters? I know that it would be lame to have really short chapters in the Portal, but I remember before the question was brought up about whether or not we could create warp zones as well and Edmund replied that we could just create a 3 level chapter instead. I'm just curious about where that idea went 

the chapter bug is something we are having trouble nailing down, try adding levels backwards like peopel have mentioned on here and tell us if it helps.

the most common issues is adding level 3 to the chapter menu, but this isnt something tommy or i can reproduce on our pcs so we are working a bit blind. we hope to nail down the issue and fix it this week but the more info all of yo can give on this the better.

so if you have lights selected and upload it will place a light?

hit left or right to vote.

music of the chapter will always stay the same through teh chapter regardless of the music that plays in the single level.

trying to pinpoint the chapter crash.. i cant seem to get it to crash on my pcs.. any more input you guys can give in this would be very helpful. are you saing that it only happens if you do them in order from 1-20 but not backwards?

also just because the max objects is 400 doesnt mean you should max it out :) i think i only have one level in the whole game that is maxed out. try and stay in the 200 range.

those of you getting the crash when you add lvls to chapters how many levels have you uploaded?

I got a crash when i try to add any levels to the chapter upload. Also get the quick freezing and unfreezing when loading a new level in the main game.

Here's the minidump(hurr) From the crash. http://www.mediafire.com/?r6qydpcj8oda8az

the editor launches forced windowed at a set rez, changing this will messup the cursor and cause errors... so dont do that :)

that will also be fixed next week

Crashing whenever I try and add a third level to a chapter.
Chapter button says Create, could be confusing.
Press F1 to Play and Press F1 To devmode are a bit off the screen. (running 1920x1080)
Old bandages were not showing up in uploaded levels. Bandages are just finicky, i'll look into it more later.
Individual levels display random names at the top. (Pulled from the main game)

most of these are fixed now and ready for the update, the one i cant reproduce is the crash in adding the 3rd level to the chapter file, is anyone else getting this bug?

are you going to implement something to prevent people from uploading duplicates of chapters or levels?

we have no way to do it, but we will be adding a recommended page that will load 1st when you click levels that only shows chapters that have been featured. that should clean things up a bit for people just looking to play good levels.

please feel free to post any major bugs here guys, so far we only have the tufo boy fix.

we plan on doing a big update this weekend, adding "the unknown" a recommended section that gathers all featured chapters together and a few other fixed and updates to SMW.

we also want to make sure all major bugs are fixed in the editor, so please tell us if you see anything big.

I uploaded a level made for Tofu Boy, but he turned into Meat Boy with Bandage Girl on his back. THE CHALLENGE, IT'S RUINED. I noticed ages ago that Tofu Boy became Meat Boy with Bandage Girl in replays but I never thought it'd come back to bite me!!!

i noticed this, its on the list for fixes :)

WE DON'T FUCKING KNOW OK HERE HAVE AN UNFINISHED VERSION

The editor is out in beta

Fuck off :)
Also technically the editor in jan was just going to be an editor without any portal.. it was the portal/server setup that took so long.

The Beta Level editor update went live today but we havent officially announced it yet.

this update fixed many of the bugs you found in the alpha and also added upload level and chapter maker support.

to make a chapter you must 1st upload all the levels you want in it, then click teh chapter button to make a chapter out of your uploaded levels. you can also choose your music when you make one.

this update also adds level ratings.

please feel free to report and major bugs here and we will try to get them fixed in the next update.

please bare with us though, the editor update has been rough and tommy is currently working on the Mac port while i outline the basis of our next game!

Enjoy!

FYI, theres a weird thing about retro sets and bandage girls icon.

i had to fix these in your ogmo chapter and its kinda hard to tell when youre in devmode but when you play a retro level ingame it changes the bgirl icons into retro bgirl icons that re MUCH smaller then the icons in the retro set.

there is sadly no way to fix this because i can no longer export objects with the current version of our exporter.

so the only way to get this to look right is to do this.

when you start the editor go to bandage girl, the size she is is the size you want her to stay when you place her. she will look very big in teh editor but perfect when you play the level ingame. Place the bottom of her body slightly overlapping where you want her feet to be and she will look perfect ingame.

sorry about this annoyance, but its sadly not something we can fix because of the exporter.

i agree about the consistent theme. keep it up
