Hello all.
I would like to edit the graphics of Catacomb 3d. I can export the graphics with Keengraph: keengraph -export -bmpdir="Graphics". But when I import the graphics back, the game hangs on the "Loading... Please Wait" screen.
Any help is appreciated. I'm not a programmer, so recompiling the source is not an option for me.
Thank you all,
BlackLion

Re: Catacomb 3D editing with Keengraph.. Help, please
hey there BlackLion and welcome to the forums,
unfortunately I can't fix Keengraph's code, but I'd like to point you towards an alternative route. to bypass your issue you can go with modid v.0.1.2. this tool should be able to do the job. at least that's what the readme states:
here's the download link: http://files.shikadi.net/keenwiki/tools ... -06-10.zip

Code: Select all
ModId now supports modification of Commander Keen 1-6 and Keen Dreams,
as well as Catacomb 3-D and other games based on the same tech.

Re: Catacomb 3D editing with Keengraph.. Help, please
One problem is that I believe Catacomb 3D requires yo to modify the executable to use new graphics. I'm assuming ModId does this somehow, I don't think a Keen-type patcher was made for it. This may require testing, when things stop being so busy here.
