<!--docid::SEC109::-->
<P>
The standard library archive, `<TT>standard.zip</TT>', is included with
the Crystal Space package within the `<TT>CS/data</TT>' directory. If it is
missing, however, you may download it from the Crystal Space site
(see section <A HREF="cs_7.html#SEC7">1.6 Where to Get Crystal Space</A>) and place it in `<TT>CS/data</TT>' manually. This file
contains resources which are used by several Crystal Space demonstration
programs. Do not unpack this file; Crystal Space uses it as is.
</P><P>
The standard texture archive, `<TT>stdtex.zip</TT>', contains textures which are
required by many of the example Crystal Space map files. You should download
this file and place it in the `<TT>CS/data</TT>' directory. As with
`<TT>standard.zip</TT>', do not unpack this file. `<TT>stdtex.zip</TT>' can be
downloaded from the following location:
</P><P>
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.linuxgames.com/crystal/levels/stdtex.zip">ftp://ftp.linuxgames.com/crystal/levels/stdtex.zip</A>
</P><P>
You will also need to have at least one <EM>map</EM> file in order to use the
Crystal Space demonstration program, WalkTest. Typically map files should be
placed within the `<TT>CS/data</TT>' directory. As with other Crystal Space
resources, map files are actually compressed archives which are used directly
by the engine, thus you should not unpack these archives.
</P><P>
The most commonly used map file is `<TT>flarge.zip</TT>' since it demonstrates many
of the special features of the engine rather than focusing on merely one or two
areas. You can download `<TT>flarge.zip</TT>', as well as several other example
map files from the following location:
</P><P>
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.linuxgames.com/crystal/levels/">ftp://ftp.linuxgames.com/crystal/levels/</A>
</P><P>
To launch WalkTest you can either double-click on its icon or, from the command
line, you can type:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>walktest
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
This will run the WalkTest with the settings from the
`<TT>CS/data/config/walktest.cfg</TT>' file (usually using software renderer,
though you can change this). Alternately you can choose the video driver by
specifying the `<SAMP>--video</SAMP>' option on the command-line:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>walktest --video=software # Runs in software mode
walktest --video=opengl # Runs in OpenGL mode
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
If you are using the OpenGL renderer, then invoking <KBD><KBD>ALT</KBD>-f</KBD> will
switch in and out of full screen mode.
</P><P>
To use a particular map file, mention it on the command line when invoking the
WalkTest application. For example:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>walktest flarge
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
If you wish this map to be used by default whenever you launch WalkTest without
otherwise explicitly mentioning a map file, you may want to change the
`<SAMP>WorldFile</SAMP>' option in WalkTest's configuration file
`<TT>CS/data/config/walktest.cfg</TT>'.
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>Walktest.Settings.WorldFile=flarge
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
The rest of the settings are mostly self evident and can often be overridden
on the command line.
</P><P>
You may have to adjust the `<SAMP>Engine.Lighting.Ambient.White</SAMP>' level in
`<TT>engine.cfg</TT>' if the maps appear too dark. After adjusting the ambient
level, specify `<SAMP>--relight</SAMP>' on the command-line to instruct Crystal Space
to recalculate the lighting information. For example:
</P><P>
<TABLE><tr><td> </td><td class=example><pre>walktest --relight flarge
</pre></td></tr></table></P><P>
Other interesting example applications which you can run are `<TT>blocks</TT>',
`<TT>metademo</TT>', and `<TT>mazed</TT>'.
