Cannot for the life of me get proper exports out of this thing. I used apt install to get tiled on my Linux machine. Everything works great except for when I go to export. It either tells me that the given file name has no known extension or the command failed to start. When I used the version I got from here there is a strange xml wrapper around any export I try and the json comes out all wonky. Is there something I might be missing?
Hey kobraGrey, regarding the export not working for the version you installed through apt, this is probably due to a packaging problem. You can check the Plugins tab in the Preferences to see if they are available at all. You could alternatively try the snap package, which ships with most plugins.
Unfortunately, I don't know what you're referring to with the XML wrapper or what you mean with the JSON being wonky. Can you please open an issue on GitHub so that you could attach the files and/or screenshots to show what you mean?
Wow! Thank you for your reply. I'll take a look at the plugins as you recommended and post to the github issues as well with my json export (the data section has letters instead of numbers). Tiled is an outstanding tool for game development. Thank you for creating it and making it available to dreamers like myself. Keep on rocking sir.
