Will they work for Mac, btw, before I start downloading?

Otherwise the download may not have been handled properly - could simply be a matter of renaming the files to "whatever".zip

On the other hand you may have to redo the download

Hi Gecko, i do not mind that you host my levels but i didnt want to because there a still a few bugs and i want to solve them. My site has some problems that i cannot fix right now. When it works you will find the final updated version without any bugs.

Am I going to need this for every custom level I want to play? I'd like to know this before I get this. I have an aversion to Windows.......

Thanks.

Hi, Rene

To Gecko,

It is very nice that you want to put my updated version to host. I have not updated my projects yet cause i have not much time at the moment. Till that time my site will be back (hopefully) so i can put my levels back. You may update from there and if my site does not work then i will send it to you OK.
Thanks,

Right, I have Aladdin stuff-it... I think.... it's an iMac, OS 9.2, brand spanking new. I downloaded them, and all the files are like blank pages ending in .zip. When I double click it asks me if I want to stuff-it or whatever, but it did this automatically wheN I downloaded, so I don't think I need to do that again, do I?

Arrggghhh, I'm probably just really thick and don't know what to do properly. Can you tell me what to do , step by step, from when I very first download. Cos they're all sitting on my desktop, just waiting. I've got the Wads, the Audio and the main thing..... Gee, do I sound thick yet?

Thanks, I'd really appreciate it. An idiot's guide to LE playing..... You could market it.....
btw, just looked at your posting times... you downloaded them all in ten minutes???!!!!! Gads, they took me about 15 minutes for each one!!!

INSTALLING "THE LAST CRUSADE"

THE WADS,



The first 2 levels are used with the same wad. You can install it in 2 different ways.

1. (The easy way) Copy the wads into the graphics, wads directory.

Open TRwest and load the "crusade.was" wadfile. Save it as "crusade2.was".

You can now convert "crusade.tom" and "crusade2.tom" seperatly.

2. (The hard way) Copy the wads into the graphics, wads directory.

Copy "crusade2.tom" into the graphics, wads directory.

Rename it to "crusade.tom". Convert the .tom file.

Go to the DATA map and rename the made "crusade.tr4" file back

to "crusade2.tr4". After that install the other "crusade.tom"

file over the old renamed "crusade.tom" file. Convert...

And finally convert "crusade3.tom"

---

These are your instructions for installing the game. I have ruled out the first "easy" way because I can't find anything called TRwest.

When you say "convert" something, do you mean just change the ending to "was"? Or do I have to do something different? I am really confused, feel extremely thick, but as I want to play this level, I will persevere. Thanks for your help, anyone, in advance.

I presume that you have the level editor right? The disk you got with chronicles?

Go to this directory of the "trle". There you see all the maps like audio, graphics, script, maps etc.

Now you can copy the files of my levels in the right maps. TRwest will not work i think so u use option 2. Copy crusade2.TOM in the graphics, wads directory and rename it to crusade.TOM. Now go to the start menu and select "level converter". Click on "add" and select the tom file "crusade.TOM". Click "build" and the level will be build and put in the DATA map. Go to the DATA map and rename crusade.tr4 to crusade2.tr4. Now put crusade.TOM in the graphics wad directory. Dont rename this one but just build. Then convert crusade3.TOM. Replace the script.dat and english.dat with the other ones in the root directory. Also copy strings.h in this.

Run Tobraider, select new game and TATA, if you did everything right you wind up in "The Last Crusade"

A note, the crusade.TOM file does not show information while converting!

This is because this is the biggest one of all 3 and it's a known problem. Wait till you can move the converter window then the building is done.

Pffewwwuu, hope you get it to work,
