You should see a gear icon next to the Base Resource dropdown. Click it, click "Add Archive", navigate to SRB2's folder, and select srb2.pk3. Afterwards, the Sonic Robo Blast 2 palette should appear in the palettes. If it doesn't, you can go into the pk3, right-click PLAYPAL, then click on...

There's a S_SKIN variable called "thokitem". By default, it's set to MT_THOK. As for making it stronger, its speed can be modified using actionspd.

Hi! There's an in-depth tutorial on the wiki on how to do this. Hopefully it helps!

Kart actually uses the SPR_* naming scheme as opposed to 2.2's SPR2_* naming scheme, meaning that, unfortunately, it is not possible to add extra frames of animation. At least not without any Lua. As for tips, you could probably get away with making the ball an Overlay. It's also recommended to...

I assume you're using SLADE for importing the graphics? Click "Convert To" (the square-to-circle symbol when previewing an image/after right-clicking a group of images and going to the Graphics submenu) and set the "Transparent Color" to be the background color. It's best to use a color not in...

I've heard it crashes the server, but I've never been able to replicate it. The game just goes about its business as if nothing happened. Perhaps something changed with either v7 or 2.2.9 that made the mod work properly?

Not sure if this is the same thing, but for some reason, this also happens on the PC version, and it's not exclusive to chatting. I have a feeling it's due to resynch issues, as whenever they happen, I lose the ability to use any commands that are sent over the network buffer.

First, you'll need to fix up a few level errors. 2.2 changed how Mace Swings and Rope Hangs work, so you may need to fix those up. Second, the Eggscalibur was also reworked, and now doesn't automatically open the cage. I've been working on a fix in my personal 2.1 recreation, and if I ever do...

As far as I know, there's no way to make (interesting) custom abilities using SOC. However, a character's thokitem can be abused with Actions that run when the object spawns to make somewhat strange abilities. Besides, it's easier to learn how to use Lua's AbilitySpecial hook than to make an...

You might want to take a look at the Wiki's HUD Library. It's a collection of functions that you can use to draw things on-screen. If you don't want to change the entire hud on the fly (like Modern Sonic or Hexhog do), you can also check the Heads-up display page on the Wiki, specifically the...

You're in luck. There's a reusable script that allows you to add sounds for footsteps: it's right here. As for the sounds, you can either rip them from games (I'd recommend going to The VG Resource's dedicated sounds website for these) or record your own. If you're willing to pick the latter...

With the use of P_LookForEnemies(), you could store the closest enemy into a variable, then use P_SpawnLockOn() to draw a lock-on target over the enemy's head. freeslot("SPR_EXMP", "S_CUSTOMMARKER") -- SPR_EXMP and S_CUSTOMMARKER can be swapped out for whatever names you think fit best. SPR_*...

Both clients have to have the same file, name included. If they don't, the host client will attempt to send their copy to the connecting client, unless file downloading is turned off on the host's end. As for the problem your friend has, I have no idea how you could fix that.

Could you clarify what type of mod you're trying to make? There are tons of tutorials on the wiki, including (but not limited to) Character tutorials, Mapping guides, Lua tutorials, Music tutorials, Object tutorials, and Unlockable tutorials for custom level packs. As for general tips, here...

Lua seems like the way to go here. Firstly, you'll need a TouchSpecial hook that checks the following things: If one of the mobj types involved in the interaction is MT_PLAYER If the other mobj type is MT_MONSTER11 If the player mobj isn't able to damage the boss (using not...
