• Some IPge*.oni are global (located in level0_...), other are local, see table.
• An item page can be read for first time when player finds an item linked to its page.
• An IGPA instance here will make Oni crash.

XML structure

Think of "instances" (#N) as file sections, they go from 1 to N. 0 is the header (it defines the file type, here "IPge").

Every IPge contains one instance of type IGPG.

Every IGPG contains two instances of type IGSA. (One for the main section, one for the hint section.)

Every IGSA contains a number of instances of type IGSt.

IGPG means a page

IGSA means a (text) string array

IGSt means a (text) string

example on "IPgekeys":

#0 (IPge instance) links to #1 (IGPG instance)

#1 (IGPG instance) links to #3 and #4 (IGSA instances)

#2 (unknown placeholder, only presented in original files) (can be ignored)

#3 (IGSA instance) links from #5 up to #6 (IGSt instances)

#4 (IGSA instance) links to #7 (IGSt instance)

XML tags and options

IPge instance tags

<PageNumber> (item page number)

<Page> (links to IGPG instance)

IGPG instance tags

<Font> (defines the font in case it isn't defined in the IGSt instance; the style is bold by default)

<Family>

TSFFTahoma

<Style>

Normal

Bold

Italic

<Color> (RGB range, e.g. <Color>255 0 77</Color>)

<Size> (10 and 12 are usually used)

<Link> (links to an IGSt instance)

IGSt instance tags

<Font>

<Family>

TSFFTahoma

<Style>

Normal

Italic

<Color>

<Size>

<Flags> (Every IGSt can use own properties. The <Flag> tag let you enable these. Add "Size" when you want to get a new font size, add "Color" when you want to get a new font color, etc..)

Family

Style

Color

Size

<Text> (contains the actual text but can also create a bare paragraph)

example

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Oni Version="0.9.34.0">
   <Instance id="0" type="IPge">
       <PageNumber>5</PageNumber>
       <Page>#1</Page>
   </Instance>

You can display a little image if you use the image tag in the IGPG instance. (Either non-animated TXMP or PSpc.)

   <Instance id="1" type="IGPG">
       <Font>
           <Family></Family>
           <Style>Normal</Style>
           <Color>0 0 0 0</Color>
           <Size>0</Size>
           <Flags></Flags>
       </Font>
       <Image>TXMPkeys</Image>
       <Text1>#3</Text1>
       <Text2>#4</Text2>
   </Instance>
   <Instance id="3" type="IGSA">
       <Strings>
           <Link>#7</Link>
       </Strings>
   </Instance>
   <Instance id="4" type="IGSA">
       <Strings>
           <Link>#5</Link>
           <Link>#6</Link>
       </Strings>
   </Instance>
   <Instance id="5" type="IGSt">
       <Font>
           <Family></Family>
           <Style>Normal</Style>
           <Color>0 0 0 0</Color>
           <Size>0</Size>
           <Flags></Flags>
       </Font>
       <Text>Hint:</Text>
   </Instance>

A space between the text tags (<Text> </Text>) can produce a new paragraph. The import ignores that so far but you can fix it by writing "<Text xml:space="preserve"> </Text>". (Not used in IPgekeys.)

   <Instance id="6" type="IGSt">
       <Font>
           <Family></Family>
           <Style>Normal</Style>
           <Color>0 0 0 0</Color>
           <Size>0</Size>
           <Flags></Flags>
       </Font>
       <Text>Maybe the truck can help you get through the doors to the computer core...</Text>
   </Instance>
   <Instance id="7" type="IGSt">

differences in AE versions

LSI location has changed in AE's 2009-7 release, in 2008-8 and older it was "levelX_Final/LSI".
