What it does and how it does:
The CIS-FAT-System binds File of any Kind at the
End of an Executable (EXE-Binder) but it also
have a nice File-Table and you can ??Dynamically??
save, delete & load Files.
It is possible for example to Code the Binary
with all single Files external ...
After a Little Check you can modifiy your code that way
that the CIS-FAT on First Start automatically load all nesseary
Files into the Binary-FS.
So can add Music, Movies, Images ... all in one Big-File.
The best is that you can use Static-Filenames!
For example:
// This Line loads an External File into the Binary if its not already in it.
if not cis_file_exists(??e:\xm\shold.xm??) then cis_save_file(??e:\xm\shold.xm??);
// This Line access the File in the Binary, if its not in it uses the
// External Version of the File.
cis_load_file(??e:\xm\shold.xm??,muke);
So there is no need to change Filenames.
Yours Cybergen.
