Prepare the game to accept mods.

Before starting, I suggest that you make a copy of the installed game directory in case you make a mistake in the procedure.

I. Extract main archives. (.GOB)

  1. Download tools at: https://github.com/smlu/ProjectMarduk
  2. Extract CD1.gob CD2.gob and JONES3D.gob using gobext.exe
  3. You must have different new folders (3do, cog, ...) in the Resource folder.
  4. Delete the .GOB files. Then launch your game, if it works you are on the good way. Else retry.

II. Set the game to start in developer mode.

There are 2 options to run the game in developer mode:

a.) Download and run the devmode.bat script found in scripts folder.
The script requires administration privileges to make changes under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - Steam version and original installation.

b.) Manually change the game config in Windows registry:

  1. In Windows search bar, look for regedit and open it.

  2. Depending on the type of the game install, in the registry editor search for:

    • Original CD install:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine\v1.0

    • Copy the game files from original CD:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine\v1.0
      or
      HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine\v1.0

    • GOG version of the game:
      HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine\v1.0

    • STEAM version of the game:
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts Entertainment Company LLC\Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine

  3. Edit the Start Mode DWORD and set the value to 2 (0x00000002):

regedit

If it doesn't exist, create a new DWORD with name Start Mode.

After the devmode config is set, launch the game (e.g.: through Indy3D.exe located in Resource folder) and the developer window should pop-up:
J3D_docu_devmenu.jpg
Try to start a random .CND level, if it works you are on the good way. Else retry.

III. Extract compact level files. (.CND)

  1. Extract all game resources from CND files in NDY folder using cndtool.exe

  2. In NDY folder, you should have now several folders with the name of levels.

  3. For each of them:

    • move the extracted "key" folder to [...]\LucasArts\The Infernal Machine\Resource\3do\
    • move the extracted "mat" and "sound" folders to [...]\LucasArts\The Infernal Machine\Resource\

  4. You can delete the extracted folders in NDY folder, they are now useless.

  5. Download Jones3D_test_level_ORIG.ndy and MOD_00_cyn_mod.ndy found in resources/ndy folder and put them in [...]\LucasArts\The Infernal Machine\Resource\ndy\

  6. Launch Indy3D.exe and start the two levels: Jones3D_test_level_ORIG.ndy and MOD_00_cyn_mod.ndy, if they work - congratulations. Else retry.

You should be able to load any original or custom level from now on.
