Post by ricepattydaddy »

im sorry im new at this and im sure you have heard this problem before. i read what was written in the forum and other places.i cant figure it out.when i start editer it says geditpro cannot find defalt*.txl. geditpro checks for the defalt*.txl file when opening new worlds...anyway it says more but im fairly sure the problem can be found on the forum along with the solution.i can fix it by setting geditpro to look in the correct place.C/program files/media/levels/defalt.txl so now the editer opens. i hit enter and get my first little room on the editer the one with the faces on it as the texture.i click under entities the dropdown says light,modelorigin,spotlight and sunlight.i click model origen the lightbulb comes up in the cube.i hit enter the green plane that says model comes up.maby im doing this wrong i dont know.i then hit compile and hit ok it says error writing level.mapfile. check output file and ensure there is enough disc space.i hit ok and just try to exit it askes if i want to save i hit ok and it brings up a screen that says save as it says im going to save in levels and under that its got one of these i have to choose basic,flashlight,rfdemov1.rfscripingv1.i choose one and save then i exit game. i come back to game and just read this over and thats what happens. please help oh and i have a dell xps 600 and like around 100 gigs free

Welcome to the forum. :D
I suggest to start with you download the free e-book written by Dan Valeo and follow his guide. It is a very well written turorial and will help you to get started. You can get it here:
