GTA Liberty City Launcher

-------------------------
This program modifies the needed parts of in-memory image of gta-vc.exe so that
Liberty City can function properly. It is a launcher program which means that in
order to run Liberty City you'll have to run it through gta-lc.exe, not gta-
vc.exe.

How does it work

----------------
The parts that need to be modified and the path to the exe are stored in the
file gta-lc.ini in the same folder as the launcher itself. If this file is found
and everything checks out (i.e. path to exe inside the ini-file is valid), the
launcher asks no quesions and runs the game, performs all necessary memory hacks
and exits.
When the launcher can't run the game either because the executable is not found
or ini-file is not found, it first displays a dialog allowing the user to choose
the path to exe and modify the parameters that are going to be hacked. In essence,
this dialog is the ini-file editor. In allows you to specify the following things:
- Path to the exe. So, the launcher does not necessarily have to be in the same
directory as the executable, although this is the default assumption.
- Limits on buildings and dynamic objects (dummys). These need to be at least
7300 and 2900 respectively.
- Wave acronyms that the game finds in the main.scm (referred to as "Wave
Table"). The maximum lengt of the wave table entry is 7 symbols
- Paths to wave files that the game uses. The path can be at most 24 characters
long. Notice two things here:
1. If even one of the wave paths points to a non-existing file, all sounds in
the game dissapear.
2. Indices of wave paths and wave table do not correspond, so you have to use
original wave values to guess which wave table entry corresponds to which wave
path. Indices are only used by the launcher to find values faster.
- Dynamic object names that the game uses. The maximum length of each object
varies and is shown in the firt column of the list.

You can always invoke this config dialog at startup even when the launcher uses
silent game run mode. To do so, add the line:
ShowConfig = 1
in the [Exe] section of the ini-file. This line will be removed again next time
you run the game, so it's a one-time thing. You'll have to add it every time you
want to display the config dialog.
If somehow, gta-lc.ini gets deleted, all the settings are lost!
