In the new version I cannot open .tbin files although I could do this in the previous version.I enabled support for this format in the settings, but it doesn't work.Unrecognized file format
Thank you for pointing that out! So you are saying that this broke in Tiled 1.11.0 compared to 1.10.2? And what is your operating system? In case of Windows, did you take the Windows 7-8 build or the Windows 10+ one?
it runs great on linux mint (21.3 atm but before that too)
#!/bin/bash
awk '$0="!byte "$0' $1 > "$1.asm"
stuff like this and rodzillas material maker is like bumping into running water or sliced bread as a poor hobbyist (but its actually SO pro, i personally barely use the scratched surface here) ... when people do stuff b/c they do before they get paid and it turns into a passion, yo, this is great, thx man, i hope you keep on going at it until its as big as unreal engine haha
Can you provide any additional information about the circumstances? Did it always crash? Does it consistently crash? Anything that can help narrow the issue down.
The first time I downloaded the application, after 5-20 seconds it crashed (application is not responding). I turned off hardware acceleration and rebooted the computer, after which the application periodically froze every 20 seconds Tried versions 1.10.2, 1.10.1, 1.9.2 I apologize for my English, I hope I explained it clearly
Sorry for not getting back sooner. Unfortunately, this information does not help in finding out the cause of the crash. I can suggest to try the latest Tiled 1.11 release, and if it is still crashing, to ask for help on Discord so we can try to narrow it down.
EDIT: Turns out that the issue was related to Itch.io App, not Tiled.
I've come across an unusual folder nestled in my HDD and upon further investigation, I discovered that Tiled was autonomously generating folders with nonsensical names on my drive, without my explicit permission. While browsing through various discussions, I've encountered numerous mentions of false positives, but perhaps there's more truth to them than initially presumed.
A staggering total of 44,140 folders have been generated, with 54 appearing just today, despite not actively engaging with the application; it seems to be operating surreptitiously in the background. I'm presently in the process of deleting the primary directory, which harbors over 132,000 files.
I'm hesitant to attribute malicious intent to the Tiled developers, but there's undoubtedly a significant issue at play here.
Hmm, that’s worrying. However, it would be nice to know some details:
Why do you think Tiled is creating these folders?
Where did you download Tiled?
What are these folders named and what kind of files are created?
Since when is this problem occurring and did you try de-installing Tiled? Did that help?
If it is really the Tiled executable, it was probably infected after being installed. So far, there have only been false positives and no actual reports of Tiled doing something malicious. The executable is built in a clean environment and Windows builds are signed by the SignPath Foundation.
Hey Thorbjørn, I always downloaded Tiled from the official site. The folder spam started in 2022, altought I noticed there was already folder for 2021 (but a single one).
The folder names sounds like some linux codename releases. It seems to be a word generator that adds 3 words together;
"barely-viable-shiner"
"terminally-unique-dragon"
"randomly-careful-yeti"
and so on.
I'm led to think this is related with Tiled because of files content (see screenshots)
In most of the folders I checked, there was 2 JSONS Files:
operate-context.json
operate-log.json
Theres got to be more files generated but I don't know what (because 44,140 folders with 2 files in each does not reach the amount of files I had to delete)
Here's a link with a quick montage of everything I got (sorry no time to do something pretty): LINK TO IMAGE
Hmm, while Tiled is mentioned in those files, they seem to be actually created by the itch.io app or some version of it. For whatever reason, it appears to be generating random target locations and then prints logs regarding the installation of Tiled. It seems to be like something in the itch.io app is malfunctioning, which you might want to consider reporting on their bug tracker: https://github.com/itchio/itch/issues (be sure to provide as many details as you did here).
I don’t think we need to pretend like it never happened, but feel free to edit your posts as appropriate. Even if Tiled isn’t writing those files, and even if it does not look malicious, it is still worth reporting.
I have used the tiled editor some years ago for my point and click adventure ‘The Lost Adventures’.
Thank for you making this extremely user friendly tool! I am thinking again to add support for tile based rooms in my point and click engine that drives ‘Pixel Parody’. I chose not to go for tiles because the perspective is always fixed. But I remember that whipping up new rooms was fast in those days….
just wanted to say tiled has been saving me a lot of time in making maps for my GB Studio game. its incredibly intuitive and worth way more than $19 imo. thanks for your work!!!
It literally makes tiling and collision mapping so easy that I don't think I will be able to use a framework without this program. The Appimage works perfectly on Arch.

because I dont have a pc i'm running linux inside a container in termux (android)
is there any way to install without using app images?
There's a Flatpak here https://flathub.org/apps/org.mapeditor.Tiled
Thank you

oh yes, and thanks for your work!
I just recently started using this program
I found the reason in special characters in the folder name. It is necessary that the entire path be written in English

Tiled App crashing on Windows 11 (1.10.2 version). i5/64gb
Can you provide any additional information about the circumstances? Did it always crash? Does it consistently crash? Anything that can help narrow the issue down.

Hi Thorbjørn. I wanted to thank you for this amazing app. This helped me a lot.
I wanted to let you know that I'm using Tiled in one of my packs and I strongly recommend that people download it, ok? https://ragnapixel.itch.io/isometric-fantasy-tiles
Also, I see you don't have any isometric screenshot examples on the page. Feel free to use mine if you wish.
You’re right, there really should be an isometric example, and thank you for providing one! Those isometric building blocks look great!
Thanks =P

Very well! Apologies for implicating Tiled. I propose we remove the entire set of comments about this matter.
I don’t think we need to pretend like it never happened, but feel free to edit your posts as appropriate. Even if Tiled isn’t writing those files, and even if it does not look malicious, it is still worth reporting.
could you make a browser edition?
