BLUDSIFT
BME

It checks for the header "BLM", If false it moves it later to the !NOBLOOD folder.

 

 

MapSaver
Victor
8.2 MapSaver make a folder with the name of this card and after a certain period of time creates a copy of this card, instead of substitutes in the order or the number zero for the first time. If the folder is already there, then searches for the last card on the number, and continues its case. MapSaver simply start with necessary parameters, and then separately, not from the bat-file, - MapEdit.exe. Just have to constantly remain in the editor, and MapSaver will make copies of itself.

MAPEDIT v?.?? FIRST Release
Monolith
519 v?.?? Runs with Shareware Blood Only, maps run on REG version.

The FIRST released level editor for Blood. ...we have decided to release our map editor (MAPEDIT) to the world - even
before - the full version of Blood hits the store shelves!!...

The maps that you make with MapEdit, will NOT work with the shareware version of Blood. They will only work with the FULL commercial version.

This means that you can not extract a map from the shareware version, modify it, then load it with the shareware. Mapedit is NOT designed to be able to save usable shareware maps.

What you can do is - load an example map (to see how things work), modify and save it, and use it with the full version when it comes out! OR make a whole new map just from scratch!

You must run this program from the directory where you have installed the shareware. You will only have access to the shareware art and sounds until you get the registered version (of course).
