OUTLAWS LEVEL MANAGER OLman is a program which helps you keep track of all those Outlaws Maps you have. As Outlaws limits the number of multiplayer maps you can host to 100, it is not possible to have every map unzipped in your Outlaws Directory. OLman allows the user to keep all their multiplayer maps in a backup directory and then to swap maps in and out of their Outlaws directory. SETUP ---------------------------------------------------------- When you first run the program the Setup widow will be shown. For the program to work properly you will need tell OLman where your Outlaws directory is. You can use the browse button to find it. Also you need to tell OLman where your backup directory will be. This will be the directory where all your maps that are not in your Outlaws directory will be kept. You can either locate an existing directory via the browse button or allow OLman to create a new one by typing in the path name. New in version 1.1 are the following options: Level Order; allows you to choose how the levels are sorted within the lists. You can either sort the by file name (this is how they are listed within Outlaws) or by the level name. Include LEC levels in the Outlaws Directory list; I got sick of seeing the LEC missions in my Outlas list. As you can't move or delete them I didn't think they were that important - anyway you have the option to hide them now. Close OLman after Outlaws is launched; I don't know why but I always tried to close OLman just after I pressed the launch button (just before OL booted). Anyway added an option to do it for me. USEAGE ---------------------------------------------------------- Once you’ve set up the program the normal window will be shown. Here you will see two lists. These show the maps that are currently in you Outlaws and Backup directories. The maps are show by their actual as they appear in the game. Also they are ordered as they appear in the game (can be changed now in version 1.1). If you double click on a map within one of the list it will display a new window. This new window will list all the files which go to make up this map. (Also version 1.1 allows you to launch the map as a single player map - great to quickly look around that map by yourself). By selecting a map from the Outlaws list you can move this list your Backup folder by simply pressing "REMOVE". Likewise maps from your Backup Folder can be moved into your Outlaws folder by pressing the "ADD" button. Selected maps from either list can be deleted permanently by pressing the "DELETE: button. OLman supports multi-select within the same list so it is possible to ADD, REMOVE or DELETE multiple maps. When you launch Outlaws only maps from within your Outlaws directory will be shown in the list. You will notice that as the standard maps from the Outlaws install are counted in the map limit they are also shown within the Outlaws folder list of OLman (now an option in version 1.1). The standard maps are listed as they appear within the game but with the letters "LEC" appended to the. As no map files exist for these maps it is not possible to move or delete them. OLman only scans your directories for maps when you first open the program. Therefore if you unzip new maps to one of the directories while OLman is open they will not be shown in the list. You can force OLman to rescan for maps by pressing the "REFRESH" button.
