Easier levels: Note: This procedure involves editing a game file;
create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text
editor to edit the "levels.xml" file in the "\zuma
deluxe!\levels\" folder. Scroll down about halfway until
you see the following line:
"lvl11" means level 1-1. If you want to slow down the
speed of the balls for this level, change the speed value from
"0.5" to "0.2". If you are stuck on a higher
level (for example, level 12-7), go down a few more lines to where
"lvl127" appears, then change its speed value to "0.2".
Note: Do not confuse the "lvl11" line above with the
"level11" line in the same file. Slat.

create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text

Change the level name to your choice. For example, to change Dark
Vortex, Level 1-5, to Spiral of Doom, change "blackswirley"
to "spiral". To find out what name corresponds to what
level, look in "cached_thumbnails" in the same folder
and switch to filmstrip view in Windows Explorer, in "Views"
on the top, by "Folders". It will show a large picture
at the top and thumbnails at the bottom. Dixies.
