sorry i had that on for reasons other than sending msgs to this list... also it would be just as easy for you to put the dot in the radio button that says not to send a receipt instead of the one that says to ask you if you want to send one backSteve- will you please turn off the option that prompts us to send a message back to you everytime we open one of your emails? thanks,____________________________

the easiest way is if u have the source code of the program that uses the
level then you can just use their code to decode the level. if you dont have
their code and they havent told how to decode the levels then you can
disassemble the program that uses those levels and search through the code
to find what you need (ie look for the ret 20h as a clue to where a level is
going to be loaded). so if u make it to the point where u can decode it
right then you just gotta put a cursor in and make it scroll and let them
edit the map. after that is done you could probably write the encode
sequence yourself basically by reversing the decode or you could one again
look to the disassembled program for the best source code to do this.> ...how do u make a level editor?
