(Maybe we could do a contest and drathe could take the best ten quests and make them a printable booklet for us.)
But the editor has some functions and some rules to follow:
1. Each paragraph should start with the character “<”
2. Each paragraph with a letter mark should start like this “<A.>”
3. If you want to add a special enemy you should write “<Stats>8/5/4/3/2” where the first number is the movement, the second is the Attack, the third is the Defend, the forth is the Body, and the last number is the Mind.
4. If you want to add a body point counter you should write “<Body>text/0000101” where the “0” is the empty square and the “1” is the skull.
I hope this is not too difficult to understand… take a look at the output on following example.

ps: The program saves the project file as an ini, so maybe some of you want to write your quest in a notepad first and load it after... The format should look like this:
[Quest Number]

<E.>There is a friendly group of adventurers who can help you with the Yeti. They have come for a secret mission and cannot say much. If you make the last hit to Yeti you will find one potion of healing in this room.

The output is:
Overwrite the HeroScribe’s map with this one if you want to have the brown grids. The path is “C:\Program Files\HeroScribe\Icons\Raster\USA\Board_US.png”
