Arena Edit 2 ============ Arena Edit 2 a tool for creating the 64*64 tiled levels used in Arena 2. Both PAL and NTSC versions are supplied (NTSC users should change 'local load NY.pxe' to 'local load NYNTSC.pxe' in the siocons batch file. Arena Edit 2 is analogue only at the moment, if you want me to write a digital version, just drop me an e-mail at: tm7130@bristol.ac.uk Controls ======== d pad - move the cursor Start - scroll right through the menus Select - scroll left through the menus Start & Select - quit (allowing you to save using siocons) L1, L2, R1, R2 - use with up & down to change the height of a tile X, O, T, S - various uses L3, R3 - speed up button repeat rate Right stick - rotates the camera (the cursor moves relative to the arena, not the screen) Menus ===== Most of the menus are self explanitory but here is a discription of a few less obvious points: S -> type - determines which way each tile is divided into two triangles OTX -> RGB (L/R) - holding O, T and/or X and pressing up or down changes the RGB value of the left, right or both triangles of the tile. The button colour corresponds to the RGB value that is changed. X -> pick tex - holding X and pressing up, down, left or right selects a tile's texture. O -> rot tex - holding O and pressing left or right rotates a tile's texture. T -> flip tex - holding T and pressing up, down, left or right flips a tile's texture. Status Panel =========== In the top right corner of the screen is the status panel. The top line holds the cursor co-ordinates. The next two lines show the height of the four corners of the currently selected tile. The next two lines display the RGB values of the two triangles that make up the tile. The next line shows the number of enemies on the map (max 254) and the final line shows which way round the tile is split into triangles. Files ===== The arena information is stored in the *.map file and the enemy information is stored in the *.nme file.
