Procedure for Submitting Platform

Specific Art to Hit and Run PC Build


August 20, 2003

In order to maintain our existing files, it is necessary to create new source and export files
for our modified PC art. I have created folders in what should be a logical format for our
working files, however due to our pipeline and time constraints, it is necessary to do
things in a more roundabout manner after export.

First the good news; since all our working files will need to be changed, I’ve created a
subfolder under “d:\simpsons2\art\” called “PC_Art”. I think this is the best way to go as
it keeps all of our new work localized and separate from existing files. I’d suggest
keeping the same file structure here as our source files since we are already familiar with
where our old files are.

Now the less good news; to keep the code side of things simple (and easily managed
under the current time constraint), we will be creating another folder called “PC_ART”
under the “d:\simpsons2\” folder. What this means is that we will have an identical file
structure here as what we currently have in our game folder. Where the change lies is in
how we treat files in the “…PC_ART\game\cd\” folder when and after they are piped.
In order to pipe the new art you should have the following in your DOS prompt.

D:\simpsons2\PC_ART\game\build\art> [insert field here] PC

To see your changes in the game, you must copy the files in
“d:\simpsons2\PC_ART\game\cd\” to “d:\simpsons2\game\cd\”. Once this is done you
should be able to see the new art in the game. Seeing as how this set up is only a couple
days old, if this isn’t working for you, the people to turn to would be either Ziemek
(sitting where Yoseuf used to) or Chuck.
