Description how to create own Classic Racer courses
===================================================
(der deutsche Text ist in ClassicRacer.txt enthalten)
To draw your own course you just need one of the classic ;-) paint programs
like PPaint or DPaint.
To start it is probably the best to load one of the pictures in the "Kurse"
directory as template...
1. File format:
The Classic Racer only accepts IFF-ILBM pictures with 16 colors.
2. Picture size:
The minimal dimensions of a Classic Racer course are 320*256 pixel. You
can enlarge the picture as long as it fits into chip memory.
Please notice that the width must be a multiple of 8.
3. Interpretation of the colors:
All course elements like road and walls are just recognized by
different colors:
Number Function Number Function
---------------------------------------------
00 (reserved) 08 start position 1
01 earth/grass 09 start position 2
02 road 10 start position 3
03 road 11 start position 4
04 finish 12 oil
05 water 13 earth/grass
06 wall 14 wall
07 road 15 wall
The appearance of the colors can be adapted to your needs, just
0,8,9,10 and 11 will be set by the program.
4. Start pixels
To tell Classic Racer where the four players should start, you have to
set four pixels on your course. One pixel for every color from 8 to 11.
The distance between the pixels should at least 10 pixel.
Just save the final picture in the "Kurse" directory and test it...
