Dark Forces Demo Editor Version 1.71
|
|
by Sean Baker
|
|
|
|
HISTORY: I originally released version 1.0 a few days ago. After I
|
|
released it I realized that I should have called it a beta release
|
|
as it had many problems with it. So I have written this new version
|
|
that will now change the graphics of weapons and enemies when they
|
|
are randomized. WARNING -- This program is not perfect. Once in a
|
|
while an item or an enemy may not appear. If this happens just
|
|
restore the level from my program's main menu (NOTE: You must have
|
|
already backed up the level to restore it.
|
|
This new version allows you to add the Assault Cannon (this
|
|
thing really rocks !!!) and you can add ammo for it and missile for it
|
|
(use the missiles with the cannon by using the secondary fire key).You
|
|
can also now add more enemies to the demo.
|
|
Versions 1.6 and 1.7 correct a number of bugs in version 1.5
|
|
and also add some new graphics to the gameplay.
|
|
|
|
USE: This program can be placed anywhere on your hard drive to be
|
|
used. Once you are in the directory in which the program is just type
|
|
dfed and hit return. For the items in this new version to work
|
|
properly you must choose to "Add the graphics" this will modify your
|
|
files so that you will have more graphics available for use. You must
|
|
choose this option every time after you restore the level, however.
|
|
|
|
DISCLAIMER: I take no responsibility for any damage this program may do
|
|
to any of your hardware or software (it hasn't caused me any problems)
|
|
.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that you restore the original level every
|
|
time that you use DFed. If you do not, the demo can become messed up
|
|
in places. So please restore the level every time you use DFed.
|
|
Also, You may notice that items, like shields, will not be
|
|
animated if DFed adds them. This is because I was unable to
|
|
succesfully add these lines to the .GOB file without simultaneously
|
|
messing up the demo itself.
|
|
|
|
DISTRIBUTION: This program may be distributed freely as long as two
|
|
conditions are met. 1) The program can be distributed only in the
|
|
original .ZIP format. 2) You are not to sell this program in any way
|
|
without MY written permission.
|
|
|
|
REGISTRATION: If you like this program please E-Mail me with any suggestions
|
|
that you may have for other such programs (please keep in mind though
|
|
I am writing these programs in Basic).
|
|
I would also appreciate a donation of between 2 and 10 dollars
|
|
(whatever you think it's worth). I say this because I have spent
|
|
numerous hours doing hex research and debugging the source.
|
