Within the Initialize() method, instantiate the map display device, load the map resources and set a display viewport:.Add member variables for an xTile map, display device and viewport:.Access the code file Game1.cs and add the following using clauses for the xTile engine:.

Compile the project and verify that the tIDE map file is being correctly processed by the content pipeline.

Also ensure that the Build Action property of the tile sheet image files referred by the map file is set to None to avoid conflicts with the map's content processor. Ensure that the map file's Content Importer and Content Processor properties are set respectively to tIDE Map Importer and tIDE Map Processor. Create content folders as necessary to maintain relative path references from the map file to the tile sheet image sources.

Add a tIDE map file and its associated tile sheet images in the Content project.

Add an reference to the Content project of the xTileGame1 project (not the game project itself).

Add an xTile.dll reference to the xTileGame1 project.

Add the assemblies as existing items under the xTile folder in Solution Explorer.

Copy the xTile.dll (PC version) and assemblies from the downloaded xTile Engine ZIP archive into the xTile solution folder created previously.

Also create a corresponding xTile folder on disk within the xTileGame1 solution folder.

Using the Solution Explorer panel, create a new solution folder named xTile directly under the solution.

Start Visual Studio 2008 and create a new XNA Windows Game (3.1) project and name it xTileGame1.

tIDE map content ( TutorialContent120.zip).

xTile Engine libraries ( xTile125.zip for compatiblity with Game Studio 3.1).

Visual Studio 2010 Team Explorer (or download the source directly).

To build the editor from the source code, you will need the following:

Extensive potential for customisation via a plugin management system.

Statistics on dimensions and tile usage.

Tile sheet auto-update feature to streamline content creation pipeline.

Map structure navigation and manipulation via the Map Explorer panel.

Support for custom properties at every level of the map structure.

Multiple file formats (currently tIDE, tBIN, Tiled TMX, Mappy FMP and Flixel formats).

Brushes to facilitate reuse of common composite elements.

Support for arbitrary tile sizes and multiple tile sheets.

Support for an extensive range of display sizes to facilitate alignment when designing multi-layer maps.

Full-featured drawing toolbox to facilitate level design.

Automatic tile transitioning (autotiling algorithm described here).

Support for multiple tile layers to facilitate the design of games featuring parallax scrolling.
