You have to download this for it to work!
You need to download Notepad++ in order to edit the files, so we can get started

Link >> here [notepad-plus-plus.org]
1 - Open up a level (or start editing the current one)
2 - Place down a filler object (Elevator Chair)
Select ELEVATOR CHAIR!
And place it!
3 - Exit the level
MAKE SURE YOU SAVE AFTER PLACING ELEVATOR CHAIR! THEN EXIT the level and return to the main menu
Go into the Level Editor and find your filePress ''O'' and go into the file of the level.
4 - Editing the NP++
It should look like this
Right click and edit the ''level0.obj'' with Notepad++
Now at first it might scare you (it wont bite)
Press CTRL + F if you have a level already and type in 3464.
After finding 3464, click on it and replace it with ''-1''
Go and replace the 2026 with 811. Then, MAKE SURE to save the file and quit the notepad.
Congratulations! Now your date and place will be displayed, but hold on, we're not done yet!


To ensure it works smoothly in campaigns, follow these additional steps:

Open your level's "level.hlm" file.

Pay attention, now! Make these crucial changes to make your date and place show up and work in campaigns:

Line 15: Set your desired hour.
Line 16: Specify your preferred minutes.
Line 17: Enter the day you want to display.
Line 18: Choose the appropriate month ID (see below for the IDs). (Month IDs don't need 0 to work) (i.e 05)
Line 19: Provide your desired year.
Line 20: Enter the name of your state.
Line 21: Specify the name of your town.
Save and then close the notepad.
4.5 - Month IDs
Month-IDs:
January-0
February-1
March-2
April-3
May-4
June-5
July-6
August-7
September-8
October-9
November-10
December-11
ANY OTHER ID AFTER 11 WILL CRASH YOUR LEVEL
5- Result!
Open the game and hop into level editor. Save the level after opening it. If you play it then and there this will show! But don't fear!
To fix this PLAY your level once (Not play test it from the editor). Just run it through the level selection and it should work!
Yes. There is a typo in the final screenshot. Just to show :)

Inspired by their guide
Wanted to make an easier and more understandable for people who aren't native to English with pictures explaining most of the stuff. Since they're no longer active, a remaster was in need :)
You can also make a Russian version if you want to by taking these screenshots. But be sure to credit me (or not)
