MissLara2U Member Posts: 465 From:London UK Registered: Aug 2000 | posted 05-28-2001 01:24 PM Greetings all. Version 1.5 of our WIN32 FlyDrive custom level installer has now been released and accompanies all new levels found in section 200 - 220. New features include: - Complete and trouble-free level installation - Full custom level uninstallation - Full previous state restoration Platforms tested was Windows 2000, Windows ME and Windows 98. Feedback would be appreciated, and comments and suggestions for the future development of FlyDrive would also be welcomed. Version 1.6 beta features total tomb2pc.exe integration and will be available for public testing shortly. Thanks for your time. -- www.tombraiderchronicles.com www.tombraiderforums.com P.S. Also, apologies if the server is woefully slow atm, we're handling record traffic which is causing problems at peak times. I've successfully negotiated a bigger dedicated line which should kick in within the coming weeks. [This message has been edited by MissLara2U (edited 05-28-2001).] IP: Logged

MissLara2U Member Posts: 465 From:London UK Registered: Aug 2000 | posted 05-29-2001 08:36 PM FlyDrive is a Windows 32 Custom Level Installer which automatically loads the respective level files to their appropriate directory within the TRLE root. It's packaged with the levels as a seperate application which is then compressed into one file. Version 1.5 also features a complete uninstaller, which will remove all installed files and restore those originally renamed or replaced. FlyDrive has been designed to make installing , playing and uninstalling custom levels as effortless as poss. Feedback is welcomed. -- www.tombraiderchronicles.com www.tombraiderforums.com IP: Logged

All levels in section 201 - 220 http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/cgi-bin/dynamic/levels/features.cgi I'm holding back converting the remainder of the levels until I get some feedback from the community. No point doing all that to find it doesn't work for some people. IP: Logged
psiko Member Posts: 454 From:Rome Registered: Mar 2001 | posted 05-30-2001 04:36 PM does it install even the audio file? And how does it work if the file is a TR4? ------------------ | |--->> psiko <<---| | IP: Logged
MissLara2U Member Posts: 465 From:London UK Registered: Aug 2000 | posted 05-30-2001 05:48 PM yup, FlyDrive intelligently installs all the components of a custom level archive (inc. audio/tr4/tom/dat/bmp ..etc) to their respective folders within the TRLE root. Once installation has completed, the final window prompts the user to either convert *.TOM or simply run tomb4.exe The beta we're toying with atm (v1.6) will automatically convert the tom during installation, then completely uninstall and restore a former state once the user has finished with the custom level. Our aim is to create a single-click custom level installer and uninstaller, without having to worry about manually converting/renaming/copying/backing-up etc. If the project proves successful, then FlyDrive will be made freely available to all webmasters managing their own level libraries.
