Keen4T

Commander keen4 for Tandy 16 color hack/patch.

Based on the Keen 4 composite CGA patch. See: https://int10h.org/blog/2016/05/dopefish-goes-ntsc-commander-keen-4/

Usage

  1. Get a copy of Keen 4 CGA. You should see a checksum like:
$ md5sum KEEN4C.EXE
ebf2e480fb1c44904ccd3b22677d6625  KEEN4C.EXE

  1. Extract your keen4 CGA zip.

  2. Copy KEEN4T.BAT, KEEN4T.PAT, CK4PATCH.EXE, c16graph.ck4, and cgahead.ck4 to the same location.

  3. Run in dosbox, or on your Tandy 1000:

> KEEN4T.BAT

NOTES:

This is a kind of quick-n-nasty reworking of the 16 color composite work noted above to Tandy 160x200 mode. This won't look as good as a nice 320x200 TGA mode version.

While it ought to technically possible to create a 320x200 TGA mode version, one would probably want to leverage the EGA graphics. EGA and TGA work very differently, however, so it would take quite a lot more work.
