Can someone point to me to a document which explains the LVL file format, or teach me here?

If bitmap for tileset is included expect:

/*
* [File Header]
* offset length info
*-------------------------------------------
* 0 2 Type of file "BM"
* 2 4 Total file size
* 6 2 Reserved
* 8 2 Reserved
* 10 4 Bitmap offset
*
* [Info Header]
* offset length info
*-------------------------------------------
* 14 4 Bitmap info size
* 18 4 Width
* 22 4 Height
* 26 2 Bitplane size
* 28 2 Bit count
* 30 4 Compression type
* 34 4 Image size
* 38 4 Pixels per meter
* 42 4 Pixels per meter
* 46 4 Colors used
* 50 4 Colors important
*
* [Color Table] for( i = 0; i < 256; i++ )
* 54*i+0 1 Red
* 54*i+1 1 Green
* 54*i+2 1 Blue
* 54*i+3 1 Not used
*
* Notes:
* Type == BM
* Compression == 0
* Width == 304
* Height == 160
* Bits == 8
*
*/

After that just follow from the other guys link or here's the code I used:

while( available(4) ) {
byte[] b = readIn( 4 );
ByteArray array = new ByteArray( b );
int i = array.readLittleEndianInt( 0 );
int tile = i >> 24 & 0x00ff;
int y = (i >> 12) & 0x03FF;
int x = i & 0x03FF;
m_level[x][y] = tile;
}

Should be enough for you to figure it out

Yeah, seems pretty easy. I'm just not good with windows bmp files, so I'll have to look over that.

Oh, and the color table. Not too sure what to do there.
