[ryanjon2040]

Add multiple files as tabs, and I'll abandon my in-progress code editor.

Hello Allar.....Tab support will be available from v2.0

Its not that visible with an image, but your blog is hard to read when using chrome. Its fine with Internet explorer and text is perfectly readable, but its just hard to read with chrome.

Here's a comparison.

Sorry to hear that RNG. I created that blog on Wordpress. Not sure why its not readable in Chrome.

Its not a big deal, just a heads up, no worries mate

Glad to hear that RNG

I did a quick google search and looks like Wordpress has issues with Google Chrome.

Good Job! cant wait until version 2 comes out. You will make everybody's job easier with this tool.

[lovindadonks]

Yes, I'm awaiting version 2 as well. I've tried this editor out and tabs is the one thing that I miss about it; well that, and the fact that you can't change the script while the UDK is open, but I'm not going to complain. When version 2 with tabs comes out and I use this as my primary editor, I will have to stop clicking the "Meh - Will not donate" button. I feel this hard work should be rewarded.

[gardian06]

can we get any kind of projection. (even a range would be fine)
of when v2.0 will go-live. as more then a few members are seeming anxious to use it.

[ryanjon2040]

Thank you very much for your support guys

v2.0 BETA will be released within in a few days

Could you also add an option to configure the Fonts ( Name, Size, Style ) ? I am also missing some Tabs for opening several files inside the editor.

Also, if possible, please add options to Comment and Uncomment the selected lines. For example, you could add two buttons, one for commenting and the other for uncommenting, and give to them shortcuts also.

Just one more request... Add one bar that we could customize. Something like an option to drag buttons from the other bars, to that one. This way, we could have one bar with the most used buttons.

I found a little problem: When I double click on a .uc file, it open with the editor. Then I edit that file, and when I click the save button, it asks to give a name to the file. Instead of using the SAVE behaviour, it is using the SAVE AS behaviour.

Thanks

[lovindadonks]

Racer, half of that you stated is already done or in the works. You can comment/uncomment whole blocks of code by highlighting it and press Ctrl + Shift + C. Also the Save behavior works as long as it isn't a new file or you aren't opening up a file outside the tree. So if you are working on project A and you open another file from another project, yes, it will ask to Save As with the Save. Tabs are coming in 2.0,which is expected in a couple of days.

Hello Racer1...

Configuring the fonts will be added in v2.1 because v2.0 is ready to release. As lovindadonks said you can toggle Comment/Uncomment with Ctrl+Shift+C. However i have added it in Right Click menu. Please see my Blog.

[Racer1]

Thanks.

You could add also a shortcut editor, so that we could change the shortcuts for our preferences. For instance, in Notpad++ I use Ctrl+Q to comment/uncomment.

How about making an exception for the IDE in your Antivir program then? (Avast?)

[IllpIll]

[LeiterJakab]

Some feedback:
I get an error. Couldn't load dwmapi.dll.

[ikifenix]

No TV and no X-Editor V2.0 make Ikifenix something, something...

go crazy!!


Give me the X-Editor v2.0, give me the X-Editor v2.0, give me the X-Editor v2.0, 2.0, 2.0.

[MonsOlympus]

Yeah v2.0 could be neat, Im sitting messing about testing Editors to see which is the one I like best. Maybe I'll just collect over 9000 of em

[ryanjon2040]

Version 2.0 (BETA) is available now. Please visit Unreal X-Editor Blog

Its a shame i didnt looked into it. Am sorry for the trouble caused. I totally forgot about this.

The error occurs because you are using Windows XP and "dwmapi.dll" is only available on Windows Vista and higher.

But dont worry...You can still use Unreal X-Editor by running the No-Ribbon UI. Click to see the help file on how to do it.

[Kyben]

No, problem. Just happy to help. And yeah, I'm running Windows XP.

Another issue I seem to have is when I close the X-Editor, the process still hangs out in the background for eternity. I have to manually end the process.

I'll let you know if I find anything else.

EDIT: You should add a no ribbon option in the program. I actually like it better.

I installed v2 and it automatically (meaning, without asking me) associated itself with .uc files. Thats not a good behavior.

I added an option to associate .uc files with user permission in the installer but for some reason it was not working. So thats why i made it to automatically assign to .uc files. I will look into it and let you know if i make it work.

Congratz on the release, very good job.

I'm here to report a weird bug too that always happens to me. Whenever I open a file, some texts shows all white, to correct this, I need to change a new tab. This applies to the Background color too, if I change the BG color on the settings, I need to switch to another tab to apply it.

Thanks for reporting Psyke. I will look into it.

[MonsOlympus]

Im curious why IDE's opt to not support correct highlighting of the unrealscript macro language, I use it alot and its not very useful when I dont even get the option to highlight them manually. jEdit works great but when Ive got it setup for UScript it normalizes line endings removing whitespaces which isnt optimal for macros. The class tree is handy but I can add all *.uc files into a project in most other editors and it'll give me similar, infact with a custom glob I can remove all but the custom packages if I need to. Im going to continue trialing the various options available and I will let you know if theres a feature or bug Id like to see implemented/fixed

[Scarfman]

Can we have a none .rar install option because I can't get it to work.

Looking forward to your feedback

Use winrar or 7-zip to extract. If you still cant extract then let me know and i'll upload the setup directly.

[Scarfman]

It works and the admin bug is fixed too yay.

[tno]

Just downloaded fix for win XP and dwmapi.dll error doesn't appear anymore. but if i open class file from Package Viewer window, right click menu and autocomplete function don't work.

By the Way i like your Editor and it's becoming my favorite.

Not sure if it's been raised in the 16 posts for this thread, but just wanted to let you know that Avira Anti-virus detects this as a trojan. Not sure what you can do about it (maybe contact them and they can fix their patterns)
Other then that, i love the tool.

I guarantee you that my tool does not contain any Trojans. It's a false positive and i'll report this right now to Avira.

EDIT: Reported to Avira Team

In February's Beta there is now a new folder in Src labeled WinDrv. The editor is calling the Feb Beta installion invalid

Hi Scarfman....I just installed February 2012 Build. I configured Unreal X-Editor and am having no issues. Can you please confirm you properly configured UDK Installation directory. If the error still shows, can you please send me a PM with screenshot of that error and the settings menu.

[Nerfarious837]

This is a great IDE and I loved what you done with the intellisense but can you make a portable version of Unreal X-Editor? I tried to run this on my external hard drive but it just crashes. I tried running it as administrator as well it didn't work.



I'm doing this because at my school they don't allow privileges to install programs. I do have a laptop but it doesn't have a graphics card. My best shot is working from my home gaming computer. That was the beauty of notepad++ also is that its portable. I hope there can be a future installment for a portable version of Unreal X-editor.
