Windows 8 + GTK = ???

[Darth_Bothersome]

Essentially, there is something broken about GTK 1.4 on windows 8. It runs fine, and I can do all the things you'd expect, except for two very essential things: I am unable to compile, and I am unable to save. Glad I caught this before I did anything big. I have UAC disabled, or as close as I can get it on 8 (one of its many flaws), and I have both GTK and the compiler set to run in administrator mode. Does anyone have any idea what to do here?

 

>inb4 install windows 7

See that thread.

 

Also try opening preferences ( P ). Go to Interface > Layout and disable Use Win32 File Dialogue.

 

 

 

 

Now when you go to save add the .map extension. Example. SaveAs, mymap.map

I had no idea there was a 1.6. Thanks, guys. I'll let you know if it works, but from people's responses it looks like it should.

I keep getting an error when I run it that says "No games set."

The download had no installer, just a zip file to extract, so I was never presented with the opportunity to point GTK at any games. any idea how to fix this?
