Preview Window

[Grizwhirl]

Is it possible to put in a preview window in the editor so I can see what each tileset or doodad is before I place it?

I used the editor before and after some time you will know what the tile name is for
a_crn_l_dn
Theme A, corner, left, down. Pretty simple, but pictures would really be easier to deal with, and yet I found no way to do that. Maybe that will be added in the future.

the naming layout makes it pretty easy to tell what things are, and when working with custom graphics you name them all your self.

tough i agree a preview would be helpful i'm not sure how well it would work, aside form the fact that would take a lot of programming to add a preview window, doodads can be almost any size so depending on the size of the preview window you might not be able to see much on larger ones.

I don't think it's much work. But I don't know, howto programm things^^ All I know is: it's a giant wall of text.

Just say there's a preview window above the list (or below) that shows the tile you selected. You can scroll in/out to change the zoom, if your mouse hovers over the preview window(Or using +/- buttons).

I think that would be a good idea. Maybe it will be added soon 

And maybe there will be a "Suggestions" thread on the forum, because atm I feel wrong

Ya I've started to get the naming down now after playing with it for a few hours , was just wondering if it was something to be added later.

if You copy the assets.bin and drag it into the resource extractor it will create a folder that shows all the game elements, you can look at the .xmls to see how they do custom mobs or items.

just put your own inside the appropriate folder.
