** Hexen BEHAVIOR De-compiler **
v0.50
DESCRIPTION:
Ever wondered how all of those special effects work in Hexen? This
program allows you to look at any of the BEHAVIORS in a Hexen .WAD file to
see how it all works.
This version simply dumps the contents of the BEHAVIOR structure in a
format that is fairly close to the original ACS script source code. With
some manual editing, it can be recompiled and put into your .WAD file.
FUTURE PLANS:
Accept raw BEHAVIOR lump files in addition to those embedded in the
.WAD file.
Complete source code recovery - ie: the output can be fed directly
into the ACC.EXE compiler without any manual editing.
- Support the standard .acs files for constants & definitions
- Customization file to allow you to assign names to variables
Interpret arguments to functions and display compile-time #defines
instead ( ie: 0 => SKILL_VERY_EASY, 5 => T_FIREGARGOYLE, ... )
Re-compile back to raw BEHAVIOR format ( without ACC.EXE ).
REQUIREMENTS:
1) A supported operating:
a) OS/2 2.0 or higher
b) DOS ( v?.?? or higher - tested with 5.0 & 6.22 )
c) a Win32 platform ( Windows NT or Windows 9x )
2) A Hexen .WAD file
