Does not launch at all... Do you check when you compile, if it launches? If so, with what? If your compiling with Code:Blocks it wont compile if there is an error.

sigh, i know its a big change but you should have really moved to c++, people dont want to not be able to open saves (Facepalm)

I am maintaining a fork of the C version, which can open saves from the C++ version just fine. The C version isn't dead just yet. Mods can be based on https://github.com/jacksonmj/The-Powder-Toy/tree/legacy

(I'm also doing my own conversion to C++, but that isn't ready for people to base mods on yet)

Also, my mod too, if you want to base it off that, I wouldn't mind (and it also opens c++ version saves). One thing you could do to always be able to open saves, is comment out the warning and if statement around it in save.c, where it says "Save is from a newer version". I think there is 2-3 of those. I did that for my mod actually, older versions can still open saves from newer versions, and if there was a problem, the save just won't load correctly, and act funny, but it won't crash or anything. It's better to be up to date though. And i'm sure some people would say this is a bad idea, but it's actually been very useful to me in testing things, and opening most saves without a new version of my mod.
