Treaty of Babel

Post by Ice Cream Jonsey »

Does anyone have a quick set of instructions that allows me to use the stuff mentioned in the Treaty of Babel? For instance, I have this JPG I'd like displayed when someone calls up Pantomime. How do I go about letting the IF Archive people know this?

I think it's something you code into the game itself, but I could be wrong. I've seen the chatter about this, but I've honestly been too distracted with other things to figure out what they're talking about...

I think the cover art feature is embedded in the new Windows Frotz version. This is something the Hugo 'terp for Windows seems to not have built in yet.

Any News?

Mainly for Kent --

Any word on including "iFiction" data in Hugo games, and the standardized cover art? I really know nothing about it, but just today I got an email asking if I knew if Hugo supports it. There's a big project in the works for doing IF downloads (I really should pay more attention to what's going on out there these days), and this would be needed to include Hugo games.

Thanks!
