> OUTCAST PACK MAG INFO - Phil!95/Neo ->
----------------------------------------
First up, copy the whole 'outcast' dir to yer HDD (you could get away without
a hard drive, but it'll be s-l-o-w!). The only file you'll need to place on
the pack disk apart from the intros is the assembled and crunched
'oucast...src' code. All the text etc will be assembled into the main
'selectro'. NOTE: The pack number (as used for the dot rotator) is indicated
at last line of source, increment for each pack..
In the Outcast dir are a few subdirectories. The messages/credits etc files go
in the 'text' dir.. Each section has its own banner which is the ascii logo
at the top at the start of each section (the text file is plotted below this).
The logos used are at present are the original versions, the only (annoying)
convention you have to adhere to is the fact that the file lengths of these
banners must be even - this is devpacs fault (honest!) (Obvious this really
but if you save out banner and its an odd file length just add a space at
the end of a line or summat to get an even filelength)..
The intro list just contains the names (not filenames) of the intros as
displayed on the menu page of the selectro. (The filenames will be 0,1,2,3
,4,5, etc etc). Remember to end with @END.
The firstpage has 2 sets of text, the backdrop ascii page, and an overlayed
page of auto-centred text displayed in a bigger font. Just edit at will.
Music lives in the music dir.. Just change the module and rename.
