LEVELS

There are two programs to help you make your own levels: jumpnbump-pack and jumpnbump-unpack.

jumpnbump-pack


jumpnbump-pack -o /tmp/newlevel.dat <file1> <file2> <file3> ...

or you can just put all the files in a dir, cd to that dir and do

jumpnbump-pack -o /tmp/newlevel.dat *

and it will put all the files in the current dir inside the packfile. Don't try things like jumpnbump-pack -o stuff.dat ../file.c because it will add ../file.c as the filename in the packfile, which won't work.

jumpnbump-unpack


jumpnbump-unpack level.dat

will unpack it in the current directory.
jumpnbump-gobpack


With jumpnbump-gobpack you can convert .gob files (which are sprites, described in /usr/share/doc/jumpnbump/gob.txt) into .pcx files which you can edit with The Gimp for example, then convert back to a .gob and use it in your own level.

jumpnbump-gobpack -u font menu.pcx

will unpack font.gob using the color palette from menu.pcx and write the files font.pcx font.txt. The other gob files should use level.pcx for the correct palette.

jumpnbump-gobpack font

will generate font.gob from font.pcx and the specifications in font.txt. The .pcx files should be resaved with another program, as they are not packed and are thus very large.
