Keen: Modding

You're more than welcome to change it as you see fit, but when was the last time you saw uppercase names on a Linux filesystem??? Sure, FAT filesystems store names in uppercase, but the Linux FAT driver converts them to lowercase anyway...

Just saw your post about fixing the case of filenames. I have this problem fairly often so I thought you might be interested in a more generic script I came up with. Save the code in a file called "namelower", make it executable and put it in the path and then you can do stuff like this: $...

Hmm...maybe this is a good time to mention that I've got another wiki that's currently under construction - the ModdingWiki . I uploaded it at the same time as the KeenWiki, but didn't announce it as it's still pretty spartan. My original idea was for it to be a place to document all the classic gam...

Well, I just downloaded another version which happened to be v1.4 already (and the 1.0 -> 1.4 patch tells me it was already applied so it looks like a "good" version.) The 1.4 files are dated Feb 1st, 1992, but my original 1.0 files are dated Dec 15th, 1991 - so it looks like it only took ...

I don't know precisely what the differences are - I assume a few minor bugs would've been fixed but yes, part of the game editor I'm working on will allow you to edit all the text in the EXE - so it'd probably be best if it worked with the latest version, rather than an old one that nobody has anymo...

Hmm, well I used both the Linux and DOS versions of Unlzexe but it still tells me it's an unknown version of Keen5e.exe...

Any other ideas?

Wow, I didn't realise that I've never posted here before...! Well, here goes my first post. I finally decided to upgrade my Keens to the latest versions, and as I have v1.0 of Keen5 I downloaded Xtra's v1.4 patch, but when I run it it tells me that I have an unknown version of Keen5e.exe! How many v...
