How to run the level editor Apoplexy ?

Post by THonyNissart »

Hi everybody !
I've just downloaded the level editor Apoplexy on their website, but I've got a problem: I can't run it and I didn't find any tutorial (except the README but it's very hard to understand something :roll: ). There is no .exe into the folder. Somebody can help-me please ?
Thanks vey much !

Weird... No file called "apoplexy.exe"? There are two options for you:

1) Look through the folder you downloaded the editor to again and thoroughly. Maybe you just overlooked it.
2) If option 1 fails, you can download the emulator from here (if you're a Windows user). I downloaded it from there just to see how it looks, and it had an executable.

Welcome to the forums, by the way.

I downloaded the program with your link: It's perfect. That's work perfectly ! Thank you.
I downloaded however twice on the official website, and the apoplexy.exe and all .dll are missing... Weird... File seems to be incomplete...

Glad I could help.

And now for some useless trivia: I actually dreamt you would answer, but the answer you gave in reality differed from the one I had in my dream. :P

Not necessarily obsessed with the game, but with the forums.

The program apoplexy was created to be run on GNU/Linux and compatible systems; this is why the original package does not include a Windows executable (.exe or .com file). However, as mk1995 already mentioned, there is a Windows port available. ;)
