A little help with content creation

Is there still a way to create content for AT online :?:

No. That used to be possible, but the content editor (ATCS: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4806) is now PC based, although it will run under several OS. The software used to create maps, Tiled, is Windows based.

Is there a possibility that ATCS will be available on a mobile device or a similar app, A savegame editor is being made for google play, why not a content editor for google play :?:

There is a savegame editor being made for Google Play? By who? I am not aware of any such project.

Creating a version of ATCS that would run on an Android device would almost certainly be more work that it's worth. And you still wouldn't have Tiled, which is needed for map making.

Tiled works on all major desktop OSes. I'm using it on Linux just fine.
Porting ATCS on Android is something I often think about, then drop it because it is a lot of work, and I have doubts about the performance.

BTW, the old online content editor was near impossible to use on a mobile device.

Well, I have got ATCS now, but I have a problem, On the contribution guide it is said ATCS requires JRE version 7 or higher, I downloaded vesion 9.0.1 and when I try to turn on ATCS it says javaw.exe cannot be found :o

What is javaw.exe if not JRE :?: :?

Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Java. What do you see there?

Most likely, the java.exe and javaw.exe binaries are not in your "PATH", which means that Windows don't know where to find the file javaw.exe whan the command is launch as "javaw.exe".

One option is to run ATCS as administrator once (then close immediately) in order to create ATCS.env.bat in the ATCS install dir, then edit this file and replace

Code: Select all

REM set "JAVA=javaw.exe"
by

Code: Select all

set "JAVA=C:\Program Files\Java\jre_9.0.1\bin\javaw.exe"
Obviously, you'll have to adapt the path in the replacement to match the install dir of Java on your PC.

Ok, so I got ATCS working, created two new quests and i want to test what I have done so far, I have exported the project and I am suposed to merge it with the source code acording to ATCS but there is no explanation as to how, I mean, why should I know how to merge the zip file with the source cod :?: Please Help

Also, once I get the source code merged how do I make it work on my android, do I just send it to my phone and the rest is done by itself???
