Wizzy's Quest Level Editor for Windows

[Dan]

Hi, this is an unofficial level editor for the game Wizzy's Quest.
It runs on windows.



If you have the game installed on the local hard drive, (pc folder mounted as a HD) then copy the level editor into the "WizzysQuest/Game" folder and start the .exe

You can start the editor from anywhere, but you have to, somehow, copy the "levels" file to into the above mentioned folder.

Edit: Uploaded a new version, with following changes:

Edit2: The editor always saves to the levels file. If you want to start a new set of levels, make sure to copy/rename the old one.

;v1.1 Removed the ctrl/strg key which was used to display help page, 
;     Disabled copy to/from levels 50/51
;     Added name to rooms 50/51
;     Added a Wizzy's Quest logo, timer animation and moved the credits to bottom at the waiting page.

Have fun.

Nice to see I am not the only one writing level editors :-)

Cool stuff, I wonder how you worked out the level format.

Whaou, thank you !

Silly question : Since you were able to "reverse engineer", wasn't it more easy to use level editor integrated in the game ?
(no affirmation here, the "integrated" level editor is how I understood the game's manual).
Didn't you saw one code allowing the access to an integrated level editor ?

Sorry it was not reverse engineered- i'v only filled the levels file with numbers to get the tiles.

And in the game's executable, the level passwords are visible. But nothing that indicates a hint on how to enter the editor, if there is one. (i haven't seen any text which would indicate that a level editor is present ... like loading/saving or editing.)

Maybe someone more experienced with reverse engineering could look it up, or simply contact the author ?

Cool stuff, I wonder how you worked out the level format.

By looking at the levels file with the hex editor. Then i counted the tiles in game and the rest was easy (part from sprite combos, which needed many winuae restarts, but lucky the emulation can be speeded up)
