Recommended ~~~~~~~~~~~ - kick 3.0 (V39) or higher - 2 MB of Chip memory - 2 MB of Fast memory - MC68020 or higher - AGA machine - multiscan monitor - Commodities/AutoPoint or similar tool Limitation on the Shareware Demo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - limited to the Space Tribe. - can only save one level. - several other features disabled. 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. Copyright notice ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This software is Copyright 1996 by Chris Hodges. All rights reserved.
