Tileset Resource (tres) Format Documentation

I’m working on integrating Tiled maps into Godot, by exporting tileset files as .tres files, with collision maps and all. I have what I believe is something very basic that should work, but it simply does not. No errors on format, no crashes or freezes, just a grey background instead of a the Tiled map.

Here is the most basic output of the tileset .tres file:

[gd_resource type="TileSet" load_steps=3 format=2]

[ext_resource path="res://TileSets/grasslands.png" type="Texture" id=1]

[resource]
0/name = "grasslands 0"
0/texture = ExtResource( 1 )
0/tex_offset = Vector2( 0, 0 )
0/modulate = Color( 1, 1, 1, 1 )
0/region = Rect2( 0, 0, 1024, 1024 )
0/tile_mode = 2
0/autotile/icon_coordinate = Vector2( 0, 0 )
0/autotile/tile_size = Vector2( 64, 64 )
0/autotile/spacing = 0
0/autotile/occluder_map = [  ]
0/autotile/navpoly_map = [  ]
0/autotile/priority_map = [  ]
0/autotile/z_index_map = [  ]
0/occluder_offset = Vector2( 0, 0 )
0/navigation_offset = Vector2( 0, 0 )
0/shape_offset = Vector2( 0, 0 )
0/shape_transform = Transform2D( 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0 )
0/shape = 0
0/shape_one_way = false
0/shape_one_way_margin = 1.0
0/shapes = [  ]
0/z_index = 0

I have validated ext_resource but can’t figure out why I get a grey background with this file.

Anyway, what I’m really looking for is DOCUMENTATION on how to properly format .tres files for tilesets.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I figured out what was wrong and Godot’s documentation is good enough to work through things. This can be closed.

The TSCN/TRES file format documentation can be found here. That page only mention TSCN, but TRES is very close in design.

Also, there’s a Godot Tiled importer available here.
