Weird Sprite in Keen 4 and 5

Post by Quirky Moron »

What are those weird sprites in Ted5 in keen 4 that look like Keens mom and dad at the sprite page,
and in keen 5, at the sprite page in Ted5, those sprites that are just lines, what are they for? (Note the pole is for if you noticed them or not.) (Another Note: not the sprite test page, the sprite page in wich you use to insert a sprite into a level in Ted5.)

Hmmm.. I remember there was some talking about them on one topic at PCKF, and they weren't his folks (if I remember correct). Try to add into your level and see what happens.
Also, there are sprites for movements of some objects, if I remember correct. Those you said about might be for those..

Those line sprites.

No, I think those line sprites are for when you do F10+Y cheat.

If you say so - I didn't check them out or remember, I just guessed that they could be for something like that I said. :)

I had read a bit in the STATUSLINE on the bottom in the screen.
1 2 3 and 4 5 6 changes the set-modes :) Thx!

But there's a new problem: when i start go5.bat, the file "ck5mhead.obj"
is missing. I had seen the file in my directory. But now, it's away.
Perhaps i'd deleted it, to restore my beckups. I didn't make it past
at the 1st time I'd like to patch. Keen terminated direcly when i
tried to enter the map.

How can i get this file back? TEDSETUP does well, but the obj-file wouldn't
be created. Is someone who have this file here? A download would be nice.

HELP!

(I'm back tomorrow or in the late evening. My HDD has defective sectors.
I must store a backup and make a LOWLEVEL format. This will take max 4 h.)
