FINALE
FINALE
Yay! I'm asking a question, and it's not about a new patch that needs to be made!!!
There was a utility that would edit the bmps of Preview2, Preview3, and Finale, right? Who made it, and where that be?

Oh yes, good old fin2bmp. I made it, but I forgot to post any links to it when putting this forum together. Here it is.

IIRC, the windows are erased with one of the characters from the font -- one that is all black. If you change the character in the font, then you can erase with any colour you like -- only it is limited to a solid colour.
I can see that I really need to get together a working (if limited) finale editor, so you can change the text, graphics, bitmaps, windows, etc... I'll see what I can do, but unfortunately I'm much busier than I had had any idea I would be, so I can't guarantee anything.

re: FINALE
It's amazing how 'lazy' the boys at ID were when going from Keen1 to Keen2. the 2TIL0000.bmp file is full of unchanged tiles like Garg statues, Teleporters, Ice blocks, and Pillars... not to mention the "Lights on" and "Lights off" pictures of Keen's house's window are still in the ModKeen'ed directory. The finale sequence from Keen2 doesn't even use those pictures!
I can only imagine how bad Keen3 will be ;-)
