- History
- ~~~~~~~
- V1.3 (02-Jan-97):
- - Added some tooltypes:
- "LEMMINGSDIR=drawer" allows you to move the editor to other places.
- "HELPFILE=file.guide" specifies the file to use for the online help.
- "WORMSDIR=drawer" specifies a default drawer for saving levels.
- - Fixed a bug which caused some menu items to be enabled, even if the
- tribe graphics loading process failed and therefore no level existed.
- Selecting these items would cause the computer to crash.
- - Due to a bug, the Editor would crash on MC68000 when level was written
- back, or when using a keyfile. This is now fixed. This *also* should
- fix the illegal memory hits on A3000/A4000 with keyfile.
- - Disabled some menus by default to avoid the user selecting the items
- which are unavailable.
- - Finally added conversion routines for Worms levels. Both Worms 1 and
- Worms DC (AGA) levels are supported.
- - Disabled the dos-requesters during help file search.
- - Now the window positions and dimensions are stored for each level
- size individually. Prefs file had to be extended.
- - Minor changes & optimizions.
-
- V1.2 (12-Oct-96):
- - Added spare bars options for Ben.
-
- V1.1 (26-Sep-96):
- - Second public release.
- - Fixed that stupid bug causing scrambled gfx. The bitmap structure
- was filled with wrong mem-pointers when d3 contained non 0 in the
- upper word. Sorry about this one.
- - Minor changes.
-
- V1.0 (17-Sep-96):
- - Updated Installer-Script: Can now also install Lemmings 2 if the patch
- archive is present. Also will unpack the demoworlds if such an archive
- if found.
- - Minor changes.
