Level Editor Compilation Fixer
Before you can compile correctly your first level in the In-Game Level Editor, you will need to do a manual set up of folders. This is a one time thing, done only after installing Aperture Tag. To get the level editor to work you must be using a PC Windows (the precompiler is currently only made for windows) and you must go to Steamapps/Common/Aperture Tag/Portal2/maps/puzzlemaker/'Your 64 Bit Steam ID here'. That folders needs to be renamed with your 64 ID Steam ID which you may find using this tool. (http://steamidconverter.com/)
Known Issues
Level Editor doesn't work on the MAC
The level editor works only officially for Windows. The level editor requires a precompiler which was written in C# and compiled for the windows only.
Issues fixed
Can't find background image
Full Error Message: Can't find background image materials/console/startup_loading.vtf
If you see this error message(http://i.imgur.com/aaybGRY.jpg) it means that Portal 2 and Aperture Tag are not installed on the same Hard Drive. Please double check your installation folder for both games.
