ÉÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ» º HOUNDED EDITOR º ÈÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍͼ Hounded Editor is made for modifying the data of the dogs. With Editor you can transfer dogs into your game for example from your friends. You need at least one saved game for using the editor. Modifications are made to your saved game. After finishing your editor session start Hounded and load the saved game that you used with Editor. HOW TO START EDITOR ------------------- In order to use Editor load EDITOR.EXE. In same directory there should also be one saved game (SAVE?.HOU) and a file called DATA.HOU or RESERVE.HOU. If RESERVE.HOU is not available program searches for DATA.HOU. If DATA.HOU is also missing, editor displays an error message. THE MAIN MENU ------------- After loading a game you will see THE MAIN MENU. You will have to choose one function by pressing a number key between 1 and 5. 1. CHANGE DATA -------------- After pressing number 1 in THE MAIN MENU you see the list of the dogs. The dogs that have number between 1-32 are dogs from your saved game. The dogs that have number from 33 to 64 are dogs from file RESERVE.HOU. Type the number of the dog whose data you want to modify. If you pressed Esc, you are back in THE MAIN MENU. After having typed the number you see the data of the dog you selected. If you do not understand everything you see, read HOUNDED.TXT. If you want to go back to THE MAIN MENU, type exit. In order to change something, type a number between 1 and 12. After entering the number you type the new value. There are few things you should know: NAME: - maximum length is 20 characters, minimum length is 1 character - you should type the name in UPPER CASE because all the names in the game are in upper case OWNER - if the number of the dog is 33 or higher, the change is not permanent. When you load or save game the owner of these dogs will be D.O.G. SYNDICATE TRACK SENSE & FITNESS - range: 1-99 (percent) VALUE - range: $1-$9999999 WINS, 2ND OR 3RD PLACES, UNPLACED - range: 0-9999 CUP WINS - range: from 0 to X - X <= WINS and X <= RUNS/3 BEST TIME - range: 1.00-99.99 seconds If you give very big numbers to WINS, 2ND ..., UNPLACED and CUP WINS, the dog can be worse than you expected. 2. SWAP DOGS ------------ After pressing number 2 in THE MAIN MENU you see the list of the dogs. In the bottom of the screen there is a text that asks you to give the number of a dog. The number must be between 1 and 32. You can type exit to return to THE MAIN MENU. After typing the first number you must type number between 33 and 64. After typing both the numbers the dogs exchange their places. 3. LOAD GAME ------------ LOAD GAME works same way as in Hounded except you are not asked if you typed the number correct. Read HOUNDED.TXT for more information. 4. SAVE GAME ------------ SAVE GAME works almost same way as in Hounded except you are not able to return to THE MAIN MENU by pressing Esc when you are typing the name of the saving. Read HOUNDED.TXT for more information. RESERVE.HOU is also saved here. 5. QUIT ------- Press Shift and number 5 (not from the keypad) simultaneously if you want to quit. Remember to save your game before exiting the Editor because nothing is saved here.
