I am aware that there are custom tiles available to download here, http forum caravelgames com site styles, but I do not know how to get them from my computer to my copy of GatEB. I would like to create tiles of my own rather than merely using 3 options.

On a separate note, my version has a list of themes, but only 2 of them work. The rest are identical. My version number is 4.0.2.112, and my laptop version is OS X 10.9.2, and my processor is a 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5. Please, Someone Explain What Is Wrong?? I am sorry for including this in a wrong forum location.

Well, when it comes to room styles being identical, it sounds as if maybe you're working in a demo copy of the game. It is odd that two of them work, though--I thought they only included one, though I guess I never did check out the GatEB demo.

Importing room styles is pretty simple. Once you've downloaded a room style (which should be a .dmf file), you can import it from the Mod Management screen, which is accessible via the button labeled "Manage" under the styles list in the editor.

What do you think about a custom tile maker? Tiles, walls, gates, everything.

How exactly can anyone make their own tiles? Like InFlamesRock and blue rock? I do not understand it at all.

That's odd, I could've sworn the site used to have an article on making custom DROD graphical styles. I can't find it.

I assume anyone can make 22x22 squares. The trick is to put them in .dmf format.

** CORRECTION** anyone can make 22x22 pixel squares.
