Yup I've gathered enough inspiration to start a new side project whilst ABG is on hold for now (as it has been for a while).

This new one is a puzzle Platformer, slightly reminiscent of Prince of persia but with more thinking involved : ). I'm taking a minimalist approach as to graphics and engines so I can get a decent quantity of game time in there,hopefully it will look decent though!

Screenshots and updates to come as they are created! : )

Is there Scissorman and William Burroughs there had better be because if not you get no kudos from this Goode.

nope

The project is going along swimmingly and i will have a little playable demo for you all soon!

But in the meantime, I've been out of the loop for a while and I was hoping someone would link me to a file that will allow me to import the alphanumeric chars + punctuation from one charset into another, preserving the rest of the latter's contents?

cheers!

set "$charset_a" "ALPHANUM.CHR"
set "$charset_b" "EVERYTHINGELSE.CHR"
set "$output_charset" "OUTPUT.CHR"

set "&$charset_b&" "FREAD_OPEN"
set "$set" "FREAD(256*14)"
set "&$charset_a&" "FREAD_OPEN"
set "FREAD_POS" "(32*14)"
set "$set+(32*14)#(96*14)" "FREAD(96*14)"
set "" "FREAD_OPEN"
set "&$output_charset&" "FWRITE_OPEN"
set "$set" "FWRITE(256*14)"
set "" "FWRITE_OPEN"

That should read the alphanumeric characters and punctuation from ALPHANUM.CHR and take all the other characters from EVERYTHINGELSE.CHR and produce OUTPUT.CHR.

Akwende wrote a tool called Charworks or something like that ages ago, for working with two charsets at once. However it was sux. The tool could probably be recreated very easily though.

Ahh works like a charm,
