News (5-5-98)

Moved the page over to another, much more reliable server. New server address is: http://www.efn.org/~c_pruett/myth/

Let me know if anyone encounters any problems with the server or the page.


News (4-25-98)

New Version! 1.0b is now available.

Changes since 1.0a:
  • Fixed a bug that would put null hex characters in the wrong places
  • Fixed a bug that would make the list act funny when you typed


Due to the nature of the first bug, 1.0a should not be used (it tended to put ending characters, $0D, in the wrong places.) However, new version should work fine.

What is it?

stli Edit is a very simple program for editing Bungie's Myth: The Fallen Lords stli files. Stli files contain strings of text that is used in Myth, such as monster names, flavors (descriptions), and spellings.

Currently Implemented:
  • Open and read Myth stli files, of type stli or text
  • Parse files into recognizable formats: MONS names, flavors, spellings, and other stuff
  • Editable title and 4 character descriptor
  • Saving as Myth stli files, including file size constraint


To Be Implemented:
  • Drag and Drop
  • More stli file types
  • Smart file constraint
  • Decent interface
This program is a very early alpha. In fact, I wrote the entire thing in about 3 days, off and on. There are probably a whole lotta bugs, as the program has _NOT_ been toughly tested. If you encounter a bug, please e-mail me the symptoms, and I'll see what I can do to fix it. If you have a suggestion for something you would like to see implemented, mail me. I take no responsibility for any damage stli Edit may cause, physical or otherwise. Use at your own risk.

<REQUIRED RANT MODE *ON*> DO NOT PLAY WITH EDITED FILES ON BUNGIE.NET!!! Though stli files probably don't effect net play, Bungie has yet to decide on weather or not 3rd party plug-ins will be allowed on Bungie.net. If you play on bungie.net with edited files, I am told you risk loosing your account. So, don't do it! <REQUIRED RANT MODE *OFF*>
