How can I convert a IMAGe.bmp to a LVL? I know I need facts but what are the dimensions needed; and ifso any colors required? please help.

[Mine GO BOOM]

The best way is to first convert some LVL files into BMPs with FACTs. This will create the images exactly how it is needed, and you'll get to know the specific colors needed for specific tiles, such as safety zones and goals.

For reference, 1 tile = 1 pixel, thus the image will be 1024x1024.

It is 1024x1024, expand it on windows XP/2k or save and look at attributes

Try zipping up the bmp instead of using a jpeg. I converted that image into a 256 color BMP, changed all the white to black (otherwise you'd have a map with every tile filled in), and FACTs took it perfectly.

Ok I changed to black; did it MUCH faster but still said error in convert. I am using the DEFAULT bzw tiles as well and still; I dont know why either can you post the file you tried? I uploaded the zipped bmp image

[Guest]

AH problem fixed the position was just worng

Ey another question; when working what color would be a FLY OVER OPAQUE tile? limegreen or grey? Because the normal tile are grey too

[Mine GO BOOM]

Add a flyover tile to a lvl, use FACTs to convert to BMP, and read in that color.
