I tried that too. I have the same problem as Jasa. But when I make anything.bat I do what?

1. right click somewhere in the directory
2. click new
3. ?
New folder? Or new shortcut? Rich text document? What? What new thing do I make?

Alright, maybe I should make it for users of all-levels.

New -> Text Document

Insert the text for anything.bat

Change the file type to .bat

This is so easy.

Find your Blockland shortcut(see method 2 for another way)
The shortcut will often be on your default as Blockland has probably installed.


Add the following arguments, "-mod editor".

Option 2
Code: (BATCH) [Select]
start blockland.exe -mod editorMake a file called anything.bat, in BL's main folder
Now shortcut to it or simply click on anything.bat



Now what? Now you start your own server(LAN or internet servers only), then you press F11.
For the GUI editor, you press F10. The GUI editor will work whenever Blockland is open, however.

In order to close the GUI editor correctly, you must switch the GUI back to MainMenu or playGUI, and then press F10. If you don't do that, your game will be messed up.

As you can see, they are executed before the game starts in a section called "LOADING MODS". The editor is located in editor.zip which is found in the Blockland folder.

Bump

Did you add anything that wasn't told to be added?
For example, you already did have a quote, and you removed it, or, you didn't have a quotation mark, and you added it, like in the window?
Vista's shortcuts don't have quotes around them, but apparently XP does.

Off Topic:
When you posted your first pic (where you right clicked) I was just wondering what was in the Installs folder in the bottom right corner of the pic?
