The goal of level creation is to create a cd.iff file which is read by the World Foundry game engine at run-time.

Excerpt from old mail about creating a simple cd.iff manually

• One problem some of our tools have is they don't handle msdos text files (iffcomp, aicomp), so there are a couple of text files in the cubemenu directory which need to be converted to use unix EOL conventions:
• * ram.iff.txt
• * asset.inc
• * cuberotate.s

• The procedure:
• *unzip cubemenu into wfsource/levels.src/cubemenu
• *fix the above listed text files
• *copy cubemenu.lev into wfsource/levels.src/cubemenu
• *make sure the wftools binaries have been copied to wfsource/bin (cd wftools ; make copybinaries ) will do it
• *cd wfsource/levels.src/cubemenu
• *mkdir /S ../../assets/linux/cubemenu
• *../../bin/iffcomp -o=cubemenu.lev.bin cubemenu.lev
• *../../bin/iff2lvl cubemenu.lev.bin ../oad/objects.lc ../../assets/linux/cubemenu/cubemenu.lvl
• *../buildlvl
• *make

That should do it, when it is done there should be a cd.iff in wfsource/assets/linux
