viewtopic.php?f=2&t=16812

which one of these do i need to install for android?

You can access in game for Android. Use the command /createmymap and you'll get a confirmation pop-up saying something along the lines of your map being created. Use command /gotomymap to enter or exit your map.

I suppose you could teleport too as a GM if you want to cheat.

You have to be on spawn map to create and access your map.

In the files is one called start.bat
Run that.

ok ty. do i need to install any apps on my laptop to view all files?

[madmaniacal1]

To just view the files? I usually extracted them on my phone and opened image files with the stock Gallery app, and used HTML Viewer or a text editor app for quest files.
I learned a lot about FT from those quest files that way... Lol

Also, all monsters that have been added to the entities file in editor SHOULD be viewable (as far as stats) while running the program. They render as their base monster (rather than their altered color matrices) while viewing stats in program, in my experiences.

My best advice is to tinker with it when you have time. Experience is the best teacher.

yes i need to get this text editor and i will try to use my photo viewer on my laptop.

i take it one could spend much time in the map editor.

[SellSword]

I never figured out how to save so my tinkering tended to be limited.

I think you could spend quite a bit of time there, especially if you have a serious map idea with quests.

Hello. I could really use some help here. I only have an android phone. I do not have a pc. I downloaded the map editor so that I could view the items and monsters lists. I extracted all the files to my phone. When I try to open a list I get this message:

The attachment Screenshot_20200329-183128_My Files.jpg is no longer available

I have tried several apps on the play store but none of those that I downloaded read .list files as shown here:

Is the an app on the playstore that will view map editor and list files?
