I am making my first game programmed in ICE. I don't have any experience in programming except in TI-BASIC and after exploring Cemetech for a while and then finding the ICE Compiler in the Archives I decided to learn ICE and program my first game, SpherixCE.
Following the amazingly explained "Documentation ICE v2.2.1" while also looking at the "ICE Compiler Commands List", I have been off to a good start. I found a good tileset off the internet and selected 16 different tiles which I made into a new tileset (the original tileset had over 900 tiles!). After running into a few problems (including changing the name of windows - convtile and windows - conpng to convtile and convpng respectively and not knowing what command prompt was), I got stuck on the following instructions:
Open Command Prompt Did
Navigate to the folder Did
Run convtile --ice
I ran convtile through Command Prompt which didn't seem to work:
I renamed convtile to convtile --ice and ran through command prompt and that didn't work either. I tried putting my .csv file onto convtile to see if it would work that way and it didn't. I searched "convtile" through Cemetech's search engine and I realize there's already a forum for convtile, but since I was told in the SAX to post about my program, I've decided just to make my own forum
The Tileset!:
