("LANDS OF LORE: gamepad input doesn't work in some menus")
The current code would just disable the keymapper setting for all menus, although the single purpose of this is allowing text input (including from previously mapped keys) in the save name menu. I've split up the mapping in two, one mapping for the mouse clicks and one for the keyboard keys. Now, I disable only the keyboard part during the save name input process. Mouse clicks on the confirm/cancel buttons remain still possible through mapped keys.
- I don't want to have this as a default, since it is convenient for consoles but a matter of taste for desktop platforms
- Also tweak the suggested name a bit more to my liking
The first level will now load up when selecting 'start default party' and it is possible to walk around a bit. The Gui (playfield, compass, inventory) is still completely broken, but at least the level blocks and some of the decoration shapes are drawn correctly. Monsters will be drawn, but their anim frames are mixed up, so they will always face the wrong direction and cannot visibly attack.
The assumption till now was that PC-9801 games in 16 color mode will always use text mode for text display. However, EOB1 uses text mode for intro and ending sequence and graphics mode for ingame.
Add new font variant for this and also do some cleanup, since the text displayer code really needs it.
(The problem is that at least 3 different Japanese publishers did the Japanese ports for the various games and every one of them did his own hacks for his specific target.)
Reorganize all files in sub directories. The file placement isn't as intuitive as it might be for other engines, which is probably the reason why this hasn't been done before.
