Level Viewer for KEEN VORTICONS and GALAXY (and more...)
Level Viewer for KEEN VORTICONS and GALAXY (and more...)
And here comes another pointless new level viewer from K1n9_Duk3. And this time, it's actually Keen-related!
This neat little program lets you view the levels from all the Keen games with the actual tile graphics being read from the game's graphics files. So this is basically TED5 minus map editing capabilities, but plus Win32 code and PNG export for EACH of the level planes. It should help you to create map graphics for the keenwiki.
Works on (almost) every EGA version of the games! (See "readme.txt" for a list of supported games.)
If you've got a version that isn't supported by the viewers yet, let me know so I can add support for them!

This is awesome! Unfortunately, neither version of Zoltan's Revenge will open on it...

Ha! Already loving it! <spoiler
Sprites shouldn't be a big problem I just need a mapping from the tile number placed in the infoplane to the sprite's chunk number in the EGAGRAPH file. If you know how they are mapped, tell me.tulip wrote:hah, I was just talking to spleen about this today. There never has been a satisfying way to display Galaxy levels, if you can get it to display sprites as well, this'll be awesome.

Can you do one for Vorticons too? There are millions of level editors but they're incredibly complicated if you just want to view the level...

I just downloaded both archives and looked at the files from the demo.zip. First of all, the files need to be named correctly. So you need to rename th *HED.* files to *HEAD.* so that the viewer will recognize and read the files. The next thing ist tricky, because the MAPHEAD and EGAHEAD are both one byte too big. The first byte in both files must be ignored or the files just don't make sense. (They seem to be patched in the EXE one byte too early so that they might work in the game.) The b*tch is that the entries in the GAMEMAPS file are missing the "!ID!" signature. That's where the viewer (in it's current state) will stop reading the map. But even if I make the program ignore the signature, you will still have to get rid of the first byte in both headers before you can view the maps. But it's not impossible.DHeadshot wrote:Unfortunately, neither version of Zoltan's Revenge will open on it...
In the other archive, the GAMEMAPS file is in a format that's unknown to me at this time, so I don't know how to read the file.

Will we get Keen Dreams support? Or Biomenace? In theory, could this not display the levvels of any GAMEMAPS using game? I can provide info on file locations and suchlike if needed.
...which is why it also is 1 byte too early; my editor did that for a reason I cannot quite remember right now. This is why I junked it.

I have a program to export levels as bitmaps lying around, not so much a viewer though...Can you do one for Vorticons too? There are millions of level editors but they're incredibly complicated if you just want to view the level...
Your program doesn't read the size of the data? Isn't that what all those dword values are for? So the game knows how much of a file to read? My level editor did that.The b*tch is that the entries in the GAMEMAPS file are missing the "!ID!" signature. That's where the viewer (in it's current state) will stop reading the map. But even if I make the program ignore the signature, you will still have to get rid of the first byte in both headers before you can view the maps. But it's not impossible.
...which is why it also is 1 byte too early; my editor did that for a reason I cannot quite remember right now. This is why I junked it.
The simplest method would be to use the cache start graphic for each sprite. The following is a list of the cache start\end chunks in Keen. They are a solid list in all three cases.Sprites shouldn't be a big problem I just need a mapping from the tile number placed in the infoplane to the sprite's chunk number in the EGAGRAPH file. If you know how they are mapped, tell me.

I tried Biomenace already, but I think the GAMEMAPS file has a different structure. Much like the GAMEMAPS in the first version of Zoltan's Revenge.Levellass wrote:Will we get Keen Dreams support? Or Biomenace? In theory, could this not display the levvels of any GAMEMAPS using game? I can provide info on file locations and suchlike if needed.
I do read the size, but I put in a check to see if the signature is "!ID!". I already removed that check. And witch some hacking (skipping the first byte in both headers), I could read the maps form the second demo of Zoltan's Revenge.Levellass wrote:Your program doesn't read the size of the data? Isn't that what all those dword values are for? So the game knows how much of a file to read? My level editor did that.
...which is why it also is 1 byte too early; my editor did that for a reason I cannot quite remember right now. This is why I junked it.

This is cool I agree with Tulip, sprite display would be great. Even still, now there's finally an easy way to get the keen 7-9 maps on the wiki.
I notice in the readme Keen 8 level 6 displaying incorrectly is reported as a bug: Mink has checked this out with his level editor in development and it seems that this is a problem with the keen 8 editmaps file.

Phew, then my decompressing routines are okay.Ceilick wrote:I notice in the readme Keen 8 level 6 displaying incorrectly is reported as a bug: Mink has checked this out with his level editor in development and it seems that this is a problem with the keen 8 editmaps file.
I just wanted to tell you that I started working on a similar tool for Keen: Vorticons. Unfortunately, it can only load the graphics from Shadow Knights, Rescue Rover and Dangerous Dave 2 by now (plus DDICI, but with tile graphics read from a PNG file).
UPDATE: Can now load tile graphics from DDICI, Slordax, Keen 2 & 3 and auto-create tiles for Hovertank. Keen 1 won't work until I get an implemantation of the LZW compression done.

Level exporter is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3940020/KeenView%20.zip It should export any Keen 1-3 level it's given as a 16 color bitmap. Sprite translucency is not supported.Link? :3
Tell me about it, didn't put it in my level viewer, but I did put it in Keengraph, so I know how it works. (Oh and thanks for making my level exporter obsolete!)Keen 1 won't work until I get an implemantation of the LZW compression done.
Does anyone have a download of Hovertank? I've been wanting to look at its sound files.
I an inform you of all the differences between various game's formats, and with Biomenace it's not much.I tried Biomenace already, but I think the GAMEMAPS file has a different structure. Much like the GAMEMAPS in the first version of Zoltan's Revenge.
What you really need, not what you think you ought to want.
Here we go, the Vorticons (& stuff) level viewer got it's LZW-decompression and can now be tested (sorry, no graphics for the infoplane stuff in this one).
VorticonView
You're welcome!
Sprite display in the Galaxy viewer is going well. I've just exported all sprites from Keen 4-6 and BioMenase 1-3 perfectly, so the rest should be a piece of cake.
@Levellass: Try searching for Hovertank on Squakenet. You can use the Hovertank Data Compiler (HDC) to edit/extract everything in that game.
And YES, I'd be interested in the differences.

^ Hovertank 3D link for you, 'lass. (anth = "Id Anthology" in case you were wondering about the weird filename. I've got all of the games that were on the Id Anthology DOS disc in the Vault section of Bipship.com btw.)
