Well, I've made an addin including a ball type called "hype", which I made myself. I am making a level for it, which is basically Going Up with Hype balls. When I try to install the addin so far, it says something about there not being a level description in the manifest.

Looks like it's because you've specified... addin spec-version="1.0"
but you've actually used the "1.1" specification!

I get the same error if I change 1.1 to 1.0 in my addin.
Changing it to 1.1 in your file, should sort it out!

Oh, I didn't know I used the 1.1 format. Tongue
Wow, how DID I miss that?

Now there's a fatal error, idk if it has to do with the Hype balls themselves, or the level.
Files:
[LINK REMOVED, LOOK BELOW]

EDIT: I will erase this link after the problem is solved to prevent anyone from getting a sneak-peek at the Hype balls.

Actually it looks like the problem is your balls! Tongue

I see the Fatal Error when I try to run the level.. BUT!!...
In addition the moment I install the Hype Ball addin Wog Editor won't run!

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "wogeditor.py", line 979, in <module>
  File "wogeditor.py", line 467, in __init__
  File "wogeditor.py", line 484, in _reloadGameModel

  File "xml\etree\ElementTree.pyc", line 1245, in feed
xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError: not well-formed (invalid token): line 10, column 23

Even if I disable the HypeBall addin and Save... WogEditor still won't work.
However.. if I delete the "hype" folder from balls... everything's fine again.

Will investigate further....

Hmm... looks like you've been editting the XML by hand.. and not tested it!
XML Notepad agrees with Wog Editor...

It's resource.xml that's knackered....

Missing "
after id="BODY2
and after id="SPLAT

Fix those, repack and it's fine! Smile

Oh... and I say "fine"...

Just looked at the level in Wog Editor.... so now I know it's suffering from the no GFX problem.
When I first view it.. it's all black Alt-Tab sorts it.

Hmmm... is that perhaps 'cos of the missing image?

{Edit}
Also... is the ridiculous instability deliberate!?
I only have to attach 3 or 4 balls and the shaking bug hits!
