you have to use an external tool called GalaxyView to do so.

If you could, please make a screenshot of this folder and share it with us. Alternatively you can post a list off all files you can find in this v...

Re: Issue with importing graphics K5
As you've already mentioned the exe file itself could be causing the problem. But if I remember correctly, KeenGraph & Modkeen don't really like each other very much. My question to you is: have you worked with this very Keen5e + modkeen beforehand? This might be a matter of taste but I for one ...

Re: i want to begin to learn mapping for the galaxy engine and i need someone to support me!
my suggestion would be that you do export and upload the level map you are currently working on for debugging reasons. (Level -> Export)
just send me a pm.

Re: i want to begin to learn mapping for the galaxy engine and i need someone to support me!
press [T] on your keyboard to activate/deactivate a simultaneous level + tileset view. alternatively you can also press [Space] to jump to the tilesets. (I prefer working this way, but that might be a matter of taste) you don't need 4 "squares". the bottom two should be enough! if you hav...

Doors : open an existing level and press [K] & [L] on your keyboard. you should see some rendered yellow lines. the bigger yellow squares represent the entrance while the other end of the conjugation line represents the exit/new spawning point. http://www.shikadi.net/wiki/keen/images/thumb/d/dc...

- you can't delete the background entirely. there will be no blank background tiles. you can only replace it with another background tile.

how to delete placed tiles...
well, I've got a dirty workaround for you. this might not be an intended feature but it's the way I manage to delete things quickly. here's what I do: choose the plane where you want to delete tiles activate the Essential Manipulater (under tools, or press the [Home] key) press [C] followed by [V] o...

Re: i want to begin to learn mapping for the galaxy engine and i need someone to support me!
to answer your questions: that's the way the game was designed by id software... but you will get used to it soon. yep, you need to copy over all three tiles of the spear, even those you cannot see. when this issue occures, please take a look at the bottom right corner of Abiathar. there should be a...

Re: i want to begin to learn mapping for the galaxy engine and i need someone to support me!
two things real quick: a) you might want to save and share the level you are currently working on. this makes debugging way easier. therefore click the [Level] menu and then [Export] the level. b) I updated the wiki with fresh info on how to use Abiathar for general and special tasks. this might be ...

Re: i want to begin to learn mapping for the galaxy engine and i need someone to support me!
infoplane vs. foreground items : there are situations where you cannot place an item as a foreground tile. for e.g. secret areas. If you want to hide an item behind a wall you need the wall tile as foreground and the item as infoplane to make it appear behind this wall tile. your second question is...

another tip:
when the level map is visual you can press 4, 5 or 6 on your keyboard to enable/disable different tileset layers. this way you can check whether or not a point item is actually foreground or infoplane.

Re: Wrong music plays when rescuing council memeber
oh wow! I wasn't aware that Abiathar could handle music at all. anyways, you've mentioned the forums but you also know our wiki, don't you?! there is this whole patching section with nearly everything you need: http://www.shikadi.net/keenwiki/Category:Patches but of course besides that feel free to ...
