- Brad's Primer for Converting Custom PC-made levels:
-
- 1. Download the .ZIP file in binary format to your Mac
- 2. Open up Stuffit Lite or Stuffit Deluxe
- 3. Go to the Translate menu and choose UnZipä
-
- If UnZip is not there, you can get the UnZip translator from the file "DropStuff with Expander Enhancer", available at mac archives everywhere.
-
- 4. Pick the zip file in question
- 5. In the resulting dialog, in the lower left corner is a check box marked "Convert CR/LFs". ** MAKE SURE THIS IS UNCHECKED **
-
- 6. Select the files in the ZIP file and away you go!
- 7. In ResEdit (or using Snitch), change the type of the .GOB file to .DATA
- 8. Change the creator to dRfO (that's the letter of the alphabet O).
-
- 9. Double-click on the .GOB to launch Dark Forces!
-
- If you're still having problems, use the converted GOBs I have uploaded to ftp.amug.org in the incoming directory!
-
- Have fun,
- Brad Oliver
