The rockford is moving too fast! When i play these levels in version 1.2.0 the rockford walks with normal speed. Do you know what is the problem?

I hade this same thing when I tried to copy levels from "Original Boulder Dash"levelset. I found on the forum how to make the levels normal. If in the "levelinfo.conf" you add this line:
levels work normal. Maybe this thing can help you?

I noticed this too, but I always assumed it was due to the intial player speed being set to as if you have picked up a speed pill.
I checked just then; the player speed is set to Fast.

How do you add that line? When i click levelinfo.conf it just says: "Windows cant open this file"

You need to open it in notepad or wordpad - and then you'll be in configuration heaven.

Find the folder that contains the levelset you're having trouble with, and locate the levelinfo.conf within that folder. Select it and windows will give you an option to select a program from the list. Do that and select notepad or wordpad. Once the file is opened, add "latest_engine: true" (without the quotes) somewhere within the text, and then save the file.
Hope this works out.

Look in INITIAL PLAYER SPEED in level editor before you add "latest_engine: true" in levelinfo.conf and after.
Before I had FAST speed and after - NORMAL.

Still not working
Am i doing something wrong? it reads now in Ben braitwates levelinfo:
latest_engine: truefile_identifier: ROCKSNDIAMONDS_LEVELINFO_FILE_VERSION_1.2
name: Ben Braithwaite
levels: 100
EDIT:They are all in one row really. I dont know why did they go that way when i copyed levelinfo text.

Try putting it somewhere after the file identifier. If problems persist (but, I hope they don't), could you paste the whole contents of your levelinfo.conf into your post? Good luck this time.

Here:
Code: Select all
file_identifier: ROCKSNDIAMONDS_LEVELINFO_FILE_VERSION_3.1 ; add this line
name: boulder dash sim
author: Peter Liepa
imported_from: Original Boulderdash
levels: 100
first_level: 0
sort_priority: 100
latest_engine: true ; add this line
level_group: false
readonly: false
handicap: false
graphics_set: bds_gfx
sounds_set: bds_sfx
music_set: bds_mus
Try to add "latest_engine" line and change "file_identifier" line into this one.

Just so I could check if anything was wrong. But as long as everything's working now, thats great!
