Having trouble importing custom levels

[sirpunchula]

I'm attempting to importing a custom level in text format. I'm copying and pasting the level onto a blank .lvl file I made in the level editor by using microsoft word, but when I select it in the game, I'm taken straight to the "you made it" screen. Am I doing something wrong?

It's easy.You just have to copy the level code,open Notepad(or whatever program you're using),paste the code,save it with "All Files" as a chosen type in your level folder.
Don't forget to type .lvl after the level name!

I tried using notepad, but when I save it it appears as "levelname.lvl.txt" and I still can't find or load it in the game.

Did you happen to forget to delete the .txt?

No; it just appears like that after I save it (has a .lvl extension but is classified as a text document.

I'm adding the .lvl extension to the name, saving it as "all files", using notepad, putting it in the levels file, and still can't get it on my game.

Press "f3" and it'll probably appear.

Did you remember wht you named it?

Hang on, I think I got it.  You are saving in Notepad, which is the first step, but you might not be able to stop there: find the file on your computer, after saving, and change the extension.  Just rename the file like you would any other (e.g., right-click and select "Rename").

If you're doing it correctly, your operating system will tell you that you might make the file "unusable" this way.  Then you tell it to shut up and sit in the corner.

I always use notepad and never had to do anything besides select all files, and add .lvl to the end. Might have changed something if you opened the lvl file and told it to always associate these types of files with notepad.

Probably you have enabled "Hide registered file extensions". Just disable this option and you would can change file extensions.
