Install Python and PIL.

Next, download and install Inksmoto 0.6.0 from here: http://download.tuxfamily.org/xmoto/svg2lvl/0.6.0/inksmoto-0.6.0.tar.gz

Extract it with the appropriate Mac OS X tool, and copy all of the files from the extracted extensions directory, and paste into the Inkscape extensions folder.

/Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/extensions

Test the installation to see if its ok

There is a couple of ways to test to see if Inksmoto 0.6.0 is properly installed correctly.

  • 1st way, go to the "Extensions" menu to see if the is an Xmoto extensions menu.
  • 2nd way, save the .svg as a X-Moto level(.lvl).

If you still have any problems, come by the IRC or the X-Moto chat to see why it failed.
