It's been a while
Well I thought I should write something as it's been a while since I last posted.
Currently I'm writing some tools to convert map data into the correct format for the scrolling routines and eliminate a lot of the mistakes I've been making because I've had to type the data in by hand. It's taken a while because well ... no excuses really I've just not had the time recently.
Anyway I've gotten it mostly written now C# is a wonderful thing (best thing MS have done in a long time) so XeO3Gen now exists to convert maps into the correct format. Now I just need to modify the code to use the new format (that's tomorrows job).
And for the trivia fans the name XeO3Gen is an homage to the tool I wrote for Lemmings 2 (l2gen) that converted all the graphics and style files for the target machines.
