User Guide
With MapHack, any PBM file (that is, a compressed LBM file) on your
system can be used as the basis for the landscape of one of Magic Carpet’s
levels. Any 256-color PBM file will do; it is automatically re-sized to 256 x
256 pixels.
To use MapHack:
From the Carpet CD type MAPHACK, followed by the PBM file name and
press Enter (remember to specify the path).
Example: MAPHACK C:\ CARPET.CD\ EXAMPLE.LBM
When you run Magic Carpet, this picture is used as the first level map.
To re-set Magic Carpet to the original settings:
Log to your hard drive (C:) and type DEL C:\ CARPET.CD\ SAVE\
SCANNED.RMD and press Enter. The game map returns to normal with
the LBM file removed.
