New Program available - Custom Levels Database

Post by BIGZIPZ » Sun Mar 21, 2004 4:08 am

I have written a small program which has a database of all user created levels, including author, filename, and date released, hopefully this will help some people who download the level pack, to pick out favourite levels, sort into authors folders etc etc.

The file contains no spyware/virus/trojan or other nasty!

The file is 24kb in size, and can be downloaded from:

http://www.geocities.com/hcclanuk

I hope this is of use to some people.

NOTE: This will be included as standard in the Custom Levels pack zip.

More than likely means you don't have the latest version of WinZip. Get Version 9 and it should work.



(This is massively out of date now, a more uptodate set has shipped with RTWD)

Yep but WinZip9 has new archiving features which Windows will not be able to handle, without the new version. Windows XP Zip extractor is about 3 years old and doesn't have some of the new technology avalable in WinZip 9.

Depends which link you clicked. You want this one:

RTW_Levels_19_April.zip

Which is right at the top of http://www.geocities.com/hcclanuk/

Yeah, I would never use Internet Explorer, unless I couldn't access a site with Mozilla - Windowsupdate for example.
