Here is where to post about the latest Commander Keen fangame or modification you've finished, a new website you've made, or another Keen-related creation.

*sigh* When will people learn to read README files...
In the readme.txt file, K1n9_Duk3 wrote:The program will then have to read the following files to be able to read
the GAMEMAPS.??? and display the tile graphics:
GFXINFOE.???
EGAHEAD.???
EGADICT.???
EGAGRAPH.??? (or KDREAMS.EGA for KEEN DREAMS)
MAPHEAD.???
MAPDICT.??? (only required for KEEN DREAMS and DAVE 3 & 4)
[...]
When you try to open mods, make sure all the files have the correct structure
and match the filenames listed above. For KEEN DREAMS, the extension has to be
".KDR" for all files, except for the EGAGRAPH file, which can be "KDREAMS.EGA".
And yes, the Omegamatic is the reason why the viewer will complain. The header is "TOMv0.8 " instead of "TED5v1.0".

Thank you so much for this application(again!

) This has helped me with developing for Commander Genius.
Also, I wanted to let you know that your program runs in Wine.
Okeyday.

No. I don't think there is such a command in the level viewer.

I recently revisited my GalaxyView project files and realized that there was an updated version that I never got to release.
GalaxyView v1.5 (a.k.a. WolfView v1.0, see readme.txt)
Note: My host is going to shut down my web page by the end of 2016, so grab it while you can.
Edit: Ignore that -- I updated the link.

Really? What's happening host-wise?

They (arcor, now bought up by vodafone) say they are restructuring their services, dropping some rarely used features in the process. That includes the free homepage pack with 50 MB of ad-free web space they have been provding me for more than 12 years now. I honestly cannot remember when I first set up that web page, so I'm just guessing here.
The site should stay online until January 31, 2017 (IIRC), but don't be surprised if it goes offline sooner.
Anyway, not having to pay for the website was nice -- and probably the only reason why it lasted as long as it did. As you can see, I haven't posted any updates on that page in the last 6 years.
I had actually set up a new web page at ohost.de, which gave me 1 GB of web space and PHP support, but added advertisement to my webpage and wouldn't allow me to upload files larger than 1.5 MB. Which was fine since I was still on dialup and would rarely have the opportunity to upload anything larger anyway.
I was actually thinking about closing down the arcor page because of its limitations. Turned out to be a good thing that I didn't, because ohost.de just vanished without giving me a heads up first. Or if they did, I didn't notice it.
Ohost just vanishing a few years ago made most of my tools that I've been posting here unavailable for you guys (and gals). I had uploaded most of my tools only over there because of the 50 MB size limitation on the arcor page.
Switching to some random file hosting service is not an alternative for me, because I like having full control about if and when any of the uploads should be deleted. (I had actually lost a lot of data once due to a Windows re-install and was glad I could at least get some of it back from my website.)
But this is going WAY off topic here, so you might just want to move the discussion to "Miscellaneous".

Maybe you should try Weebly. With their "free" hosting option you get 500MB of storage space, and no advertisements.

You're welcome.
I am usually open to feature requests. The combined export (F3) was something lemm asked about (see above), and I think it was implemented shortly afterwards. (Well, at least within a year after lemm's post, judging by the modify dates I put in the readme.txt) But then I somehow forgot about it or just never had the opportunity to release it.
