If you can post your project somewhere where I can download it I could probably figure out what's going on.

Well, sooner or later, someone is going to have to show me this problem if we want to stop recreating levels whenever someone hits it ;)
If you've got it handled this time, though, carry on, and good luck to you.

Well, I'm pretty sure I could make the error happen =D.
I'll go start a project and screw around wit it for a while.
It usually happens when I try to resize certain tilesets and stuff.

gheez this is stupid. the one time I try to get an error by attempting to resize the tileset without corrupting the map everything goes fine. figures.
Ill play around with this later, but for now, I think it could be to do with tilesets of the same name

I believe it does happen if one resizes the tileset horizontally to add more tiles off to the right (without using the tileset slicer, of course).

when durnurd told me there was a newer version than what i had i downloaded it and it fixed the problem must have been one of the things you fixed bluemonkmn?
