Nice going forcer! This will surely lead to some interesting levels.

Oh, quite. But at the moment we seem to have the level pack in a grand total of no places at all, and that's worse.

I was all ready to fork over the cash for the level pack, only to find that I can't, and that's really not good for anyone.

I have a question for you people that do have the level pack.. Are there more bird types than just Red/Blue/Yellow? I know forcer knows but he's not online at the moment and I'm poking at the level files. Assumably you could make levels that pit the pigs against the birds if you wanted, which would be interesting-- but if there are other types of birds I'd like to know what colors they are so I can try to add them to the non-extended version.

Yes there is a bomb "exploding" bird, and also one that drops eggs

I noticed while picking through the datafiles that a "green" bird is mentioned. Anyone have any idea what that is about?

Yes in theory that would be possible. However, since we don't have a pre-existing store already it would be near impossible to come up with one from scratch in this kind of time frame. And some kind of an adhoc store like paypaling the money and sending the pkg back in email would just be a way too big of an hassle.

Ok, I have created level decompiler for all of you..
use input file as original level file, output will be saved in same directory where original file is.

you need to run lua.exe decompile_levels.lua path/to/level/file.lua

For people not using windows: you need to download lua-5.1.4 source codes and overwrite src/luaconf.h with file attached in archive, then just build it with "make linux".
you should then have usable lua for decompiling level files.

Warning: new version of AB does have different level files, old level files seem to crash new version, please run decompiler for new levels before editing them.

Could you make it maemo friendly as well?

That would be awesome

Is it just me being stupid but are the levels in the pack1 directory, not labeled 1-21

i noticed a 39 and 53 and when i edited l13 it turned out to be l12, which meant it didnt make much sence at first

I believe for the n900 version they switched up the level orders a bit?

I haven't seen the iphone's gamelogic.lua but they are very specifically ordered that way in the n900's gamelogic.lua, in fact, it skips more numbers as it goes up. There's only 62-63 levels or so but the last listed level is 81, whereas 89 is listed before it

Perhaps Rovio made 100 levels and just selected the best 63 for the game and saved the other ones for later? you'd have to ask our friend from there is that was the case.

As to it being "maemo friendly", once they're decompiled you never have to decompile them ever again so, just do it on your computer. You don't need to compile them to distribute them, the game's lua library doesn't care if it's in bytecode or source code.

You also might be surprised to find that the graphics for the game are all intact, so, you can use the two bird types not given in the demo game in your custom created levels. (run strings on the .pvr files for example for help)

And I suppose since noone else but forcer and I have been using ChunkSpy, you may find this array of levels from gamelogic.lua to be of use to you. (Though I'm not sure if it's in the right order -- EDIT; It pretty much looks like it is from the levels included in pack1/)

Also, I suppose I should mention that if you don't want to destroy your Angrybirds original levels you can simply copy your Level1.lua as every single one of those file names and then add them to another directory called pack2 or pack3. (hell if I know which) They'll appear in the menu as if they were the expansion levels and you won't have to trash your original ones, just make sure to edit whichever level files correlate with the second and third stages.
