What does
"Enable Cheats" do? |
|
|
Enable Cheats allows users see behind the scenes and edit the
levels included in the Original Database of levels which are
included with Lode Runner. If a level is just too difficult or if
you want to see where the fall through bricks and other secrets are,
this is the way to do it. Here's how!
- From the Game Menu select Configuration.
- Select the Enable Cheats checkbox.
- Click OK
- Select Original from the List of Installed Levels on the Main
screen.
- From the Game Menu select Edit.
Now you are able to view and edit the original levels. WARNING:
Any changes you make and save to these levels are saved for good!!
You may want to make a copy of this set of levels if you choose to
edit them so you will always have a backup copy.

How Do I
create a New Level? |
|
|
To create a new level, from the main application screen on your
handheld tap on the menu icon. From the game menu choose "Create."
The program will prompt you to choose a unique name. Choose a name
and tap on OK. Next, from the main screen you'll now see your newly
named level on the screen, tap to highlight it and then tap on the
menu icon. Go to "Edit" - From there, tap on the menu item again and
go to "Create Level."

Where are
the instructions? |
|
|
We understand your frustration about there being no manual or
readme file included -- however, the only instructions currently
available for the game are included in the Help: Instructions menu
in the game itself. I am happy to tell you that we are working with
the developer to come up with a special "Tips and Tricks" section
that we will be posting on our website. Please stay tuned to
www.pocketexpress.com for more details. In the meantime, there are
many fan sites that offer additional hints for users of Lode Runner.
I would recommend using an Internet search engine such as google.com
and typing "Lode Runner Fan Site" in the search criteria to see what
comes up.

There is not a way to to save your place in LodeRunner.
However, you can always change which level you start from. Here's
How.
From the Main Screen select the Menu Button. ( Located
just underneath the icon that looks like a house)
- Select Configuration from the Game Menu.
- Once at the configuration screen you can set the game to start
on any level.
- Click OK.
- Now press Play and you will start on the level you assigned in
the configuration screen.

It sounds like the Original Levels database did not make it
over to your Palm device when you synched. Download the file from
this link: pXlrORIGINAL.pdb.
Double Click on the file in order to add it to your Palm Desktop
Install Folder. Perform a Hotsync. Start your Palm device and select
Lode Runner. You should see "Original" listed in the Installed
levels area on the main screen. Select Play and you should be ready
to go.

Game is
stuck, is there any way to restart? |
|
|
When Lode Runner gets stuck in a hole or the like and can’t
be killed, you need to commit suicide. Do this by tapping the File
Menu silk screen icon (below the house in the Grafiti area) and
tapping “Commit Suicide.” Your game will restart minus the
life.
