Please help me regarding the development of 'Preview feature of custom graphics and levels'. This feature would be added in the next update of Total pack. (Like this attachment #1) 1. Objective - For this feature, 10 x 3 tiles of the each room of the level should be drawn by some kind of sprite imag...

Thank yo so much for your kind and quick comment!

My intention is to make some kind of preview feature for each PoP1 mod in the Total Pack 4.0.
Please refer 4th screenshot of this link, viewtopic.php?f=123&t=3085&p=21010#p21010

Screenshots of Mod Maker's concept program for new feature of Total Pack 4.0. Currently it is at very primitive stage.
Editing resources and levels would be done by external software and techniques.

How do you plan to add support for snes levels testing, will use some custom emulator, also any level conversion??

Currently my plan is just 'run snes mod directly with snes emulator such as snes9x'. No level conversion...

Thank you very much for your great tool, SpritesConversionTool! :) I have two questions and request for your work. 1. Can I include your tool(including modified version) to the next version of Total Pack? 2. Could you please explain the detailed algorithm of following two functions? I would like to ...

"Original standard sound" means "PC Speaker sound"? This feature is already included in the to-do-list.

It's nice to see you're actively working on it. :) I have a suggestion: Maybe in future packages include a changelog text file, for example ChangeLog.txt. In it, you can include all notable changes made for each version, such as bug fixes, new features, etc. You could chronologically order it. Here...

Actually, even packed (as a ZIP) apoplexy for Windows is, like, 27MB. I'm not sure what your plan is with it, but including it in Total Pack would substantially increase the Total Pack package size... That is right. I have to re-consider this plan since the size of total pack would be substantially...

@kj-5349
The idea about regarding 'individually changing each character DAT' is quite a good but it is very time-consuming...
Regarding MIDI sound setting for DOSBox, I will check it out.

Norbert,
Could you please make win32 version of Apoplexy? I would like to use this tool for making the user-created-levelset manager. (A frontend for levelset creation and testing) Thank you.

Most of mods can be running via SDLPoP under Total Pack environment. If your idea is to allow users to launch all mods with an SDLPoP you include in Total Pack, that will cause problems. There are two reasons this will cause problems: - 1. SDLPoP mods can be customized in various ways. For example,...

4.00 will support SDLPoP launching feature such as an attached screenshot. Most of mods can be running via SDLPoP under Total Pack environment. Currently the dev is at very primitive stage.
(The mod of this screenshot is 'Random Tournament mod'.)
