when I try to upload an image the GUI just sits there "uploading".  I've tried chrome and FF

If the game is submitted or live it won't allow you upload a new image. If you haven't added anything to it yet, try deleting the board and trying again.

it's a copy of a live board, but isn't live. I'm trying to make a "hordes" version of bear river. I really don't want to delete it and start over. It's a shitload of clicking to set up a hordes map.

If you email me the image I'll try for you - [email protected]

got it to work. Glad it was just me. :)

I have this problem at work btw because I use Ubuntu. I have to wait till I get home on XP and upload stuff. I see you got it to work though. Just saying.

I remember that 11s wrote a Hordify script for WF -- would it be hard to implement that here?

Cram asked for that too, dunno if there was ever a response though (as I think it was part of a different topic).

On a related topic, I've also noticed that you can't upload an animated GIF from the Macintosh (which I frequently do for card sets).  The identical file will upload using Windows Vista, and regular GIFs upload with no problem from the Mac.  It's not a big issue for me since I have both kinds of systems, but I thought it was curious that such a thing would be OS dependent.

That is a bit weird... unfortunately I don't have access to a Mac for testing.

re: the Hordify script - I'm pretty sure that a Hordify script wouldn't work because the map editor is Flash based though IRoll11s would know more than me about that. It is on my ToDo list just quite far down :)

I'm running into this issue as well on my Ubuntu laptop. I'd be happy to help troubleshoot this.

One thing that you probably know is that *nix file systems (i.e. the kind used by OS X and various shades of Linux) is that it uses a forward slash for directory delimiters (e.g. /home/Oatworm/somefile.png instead of \Users\Oatworm\Pictures\somefile.png). Not sure if that helps at all, but, if it does, sweet.

I like that, it sounds simple enough that it's probably the problem.

As far as hordify, it's something I would be willing to attempt.  I feel your pain, as my first map I decided to go hordes.  It's not so much the clicking, it's the fact you have to be super careful anal retentive to make sure you get them all.

So tom I'll leave that up to you, I would be willing to set up a Flash dev environment on my machine. (assuming it wouldn't cost me a zillion $.. or any $ for that matter =).  Just enough to write the actionscript required for it, I don't really have any desire to learn how to write UI elements in Flash.

Sure if you really fancy it - you can download a 60 day eval of Flash Builder 4.0 from the Adobe site for free.

Alternatively rather than learn a whole new dev environment I should be able to adapt the JS hordify code to AS3 pretty easily, the languages are very similar.
