Utilities
Text Reformatter
Description
This will reformat a .txt file so it fits in a ZZT window. Perfect for dialogues, but make sure it doesn't lop off the text at the end of each line! This appears to not work in DosBox properly.
TikMak
Description
Used to generate ZZT-OOP for text effects. Crashes under DosBox.
Tim's Toolkit
TLDR (Plastic Music Tracker)
Description
TLDR (Plastic Music Tracker) TLDR is an external music tracker that uses Plastic!'s .ptf format. TLDR is largely the same as Plastic!'s in-game music editor, but has the ability to export .wav files. Included are a number of .ptf files created using TLDR from 2005-2008.
Un-ZZTAE
Description
If you use ZZTAE to edit your ZZT games, it will leave a little bit of signature code. This utility removes that bit of signature code so that it looks like it's been created in the regular ZZT editor. Obviously, its biggest practical use is getting around ZZTAE bans on 24HOZ competitions, but that would be very very naughty of you...
Unlock Pro 2.0.0
Description
This seems to unlock most stuff. Useful to unlock those old games back when people used to think locking would actually do something..
Worlds of ZZT v3.56
Z
Description
A very nice Windows program that acts as a frontend. Define your ZZT directory, and this will sort your games out for you. A very nice contribution, indeed!
z2 Browser 1.0
Description
A web browser skinned to look like z2 in 2000! It doesn't seem to function anymore.
Z2 Browser 1.2
Description
A slightly later edition of the z2 browser. It still doesn't work, but the colors are a bit less glaring. It also makes laser sounds.
ZBitmap
Description
Convert bitmap graphic files to ZZT boards!
ZIG v2.1a
Description
ZIG is a ZZT clone with a decent fanbase and quite a few games to its name! Check out its own sub-archive on z2!
ZMenu
Description
This is a nifty program that will compress your .ZZT files and save games. It gives you an easy-to-use environment to pick a game to play, then it decompresses the game and all the save games needed for it so you can play. It then automatically starts the game. When you quit ZZT, the game is decompressed and you are returned to the menu. This isn't very useful for people who create a lot of ZZT games and there is a possibility of getting all your games wiped out. Be careful with it. However, it saves a lot of space and keeps your ZZT folder nice and tidy. You'll need PKZip on your system to use this.
Zprot
Description
Lock and unlock ZZT worlds with this program.
ZRUN
ZZ3 0.4.2 (Repack)
ZZ3 World Pack (Repack, Incomplete)
ZZ3Edit 0.2.3 (Repack)
ZZFont
Description
This utility will enable those whose computers have an atypical ASCII character set; it simply allows you to run ZZT with the normal 256 characters.
ZZM Player v0.0.37
Description
There has been some controversy on whether or not this utility is the same as the ZZM Studio. It looks the exact same except for the VMUs, but it also has support for 64th notes and all 9 drums!
