# How to edit Rabi-Ribi maps
|
|
|
|
## Downloads
|
|
|
|
Download the following:
|
|
1. The [Rabi-Ribi Map Converter](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/wcko87/rbrb-map-converter/build/artifacts)
|
|
2. These [Tileset files](https://github.com/wcko87/rabiribi-map-editing/files/1283420/rabiribi-tilesets.zip)
|
|
3. The [Tiled map editor](http://www.mapeditor.org/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How to use
|
|
|
|
Rabi-Ribi maps have the extension `.map`. Normally, these maps are found in `Rabi-Ribi/data/area` in your steam directory. We will explain how to modify the maps in this directory.
|
|
|
|
We use the Rabi-Ribi Map Converter to convert between the `.map` file format, which is used by Rabi-Ribi, and the `.json` file format, which is used by the Tiled Map Editor.
|
|
|
|
After downloading the Rabi-Ribi Map Converter, unzip it into any location you want.
|
|
|
|
In the rabiribi map converter directory, there are three folders:
|
|
1. `s1_original_maps`
|
|
2. `s2_editable_maps`
|
|
3. `s3_final_maps`
|
|
|
|
Place the original Rabi-Ribi maps in `s1_original_maps`. These maps will never be modified by the converter.
|
|
|
|
- Double-clicking `original_to_editable.bat` will take all the maps in `s1_original_maps`, convert them to `.json` file format maps, and place them in `s2_editable_maps`.
|
|
|
|
- You can open these `.json` file format maps in `s2_editable_maps` in the Tiled Map Editor.
|
|
|
|
- Double-clicking `editable_to_final.bat` will take all the maps in `s2_editable_maps`, convert them back to Rabi-Ribi maps, and place them in `s3_final_maps`.
|
|
|
|
- You can copy these `s3_final_maps` back into Rabi-Ribi to try them out. (maps are placed in the `Rabi-Ribi\data\area` folder in your steam directory)
|
|
|
|
### NOTE: The Tileset files MUST be placed in the same directory as the .json files for the map editor to display correctly!
|
|
- I suggest placing the Tileset files in `s2_editable_maps`

# Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
|
|
#### Q: When I load a map in Tiled, I can't see any tiles at all! All I see are a bunch of numbers.
|
|
|
|
A: This happens when you don't put the tileset files in the same directory as the .json file. If your .json file is in `s2_editable_maps`, you should place the tileset files in `s2_editable_maps` as well.
|
|
|
|
#### Q: I get a conversion error when I try to convert my .json map back into a .map file. What happened?
|
|
|
|
A: A conversion error happens when you do something in Tiled that is not valid in Rabi-Ribi. I suggest reading the [Important Notes when working with the Map Editor](editorguide#important-notes) to find out what you should and should not do in Tiled.
