Short: GRAAL extra hints & tips
Uploader: pethu@hotmail.com
Author: pethu@hotmail.com
Type: game/role
Introducing the source of deeper GRAAL understanding...
===============================================
The GRAAL Herald, Issue 1
(including GRAAL_2 beta 2 driver and editor)
===============================================
First of all, if you don't know what GRAAL is, then this is
not for you - check out game/role/Graal2a.readme first!
Still here? Good.
This is a combination of a GRAAL-driven demo and a diskmag,
showing just how flexible GRAAL 2 is, and demonstrating
subjects not covered by the normal demo adventure in the
"Graal2x" archives. If you thought the GRAAL 2 adventure
demo was OK, just wait 'til you see what else GRAAL 2 can
do if you put your mind to it!
The archive should be unpacked to a hard disk drawer.
Make sure the FONTS: sub-drawer contents are copied
properly. Then click the GRAAL_2 icon, and away you go!
This archive includes slightly updated GRAAL_2 driver
and editor programs, containing some new features that
I considered essential to put in before the proper
GRAAL 2.0 release. They also contain some nice bug fixes,
so everyone should replace their current "GRAAL_2 beta"
driver and editor with these "beta 2" versions.
Now I will not add any more features until the GRAAL 2.1
release (I think ;)
The new features:
* It is now possible to totally customise save/load as well
as quit routines.
* It is now possible to use dialogues for player "multiple
choice" input, not necessarily related to an on-screen
dialogue between characters. Also makes it possible to
conduct dialogues without the main character being
shown on screen.
* If you run GRAAL from a write-protected medium, it always
asks for a saved games diskette when loading and saving
games. This means GRAAL games can now be put on CD-ROM
with fully functional save/load routines.
* The editor can edit PATH:s, and also keep track of .room,
and .scene script numbers and contents in a much neater
way.
The GRAAL Herald is as free as freeware gets, but the
"Olaf Longhair" character is copyright (c) Per Thulin.
The GRAAL Graphic Adventure Authoring Language is shareware.
