Help poor, little me with XWE.

[supersonic45]

I'm making a wad, but I don't know how to get started! And whats worse is that I red SRB2 wiki 5 times and still can't figure it out! Can soemone help me?

 

[Joshthehedgehog]

I've read it more than 5 times and I still don't get it.... Somebody shoot me...

 

[Morph]

First of all specify your question please. This way nobody can help you...

What kind of wad do you want to create?
- Character wad
- A new SRB2 Level
- Texture replacements
- etc. ...

What don't you understand?


Nobody is going to cast a spell and create the ultimative tutorial that will answer all possible questions connected to SRB2 wadding, because it is a little more complex than creating a WC3 map for example... :?

 

[Espyo]

I think that it's the beggining. Specially the GUI. Am I right?

 

[Joshthehedgehog]

Well I've been trying to get help with making a character, but I still just don't get the point...

 

[supersonic45]

I'm making a character. camo man Made it as a joke, and he won't update it.

 

[supersonic45]

Uh, can someone just help me using XWE?

 

[Morph]

I don't understand your problem. I've read threw the wiki tutorial and everything seems to be fine for me...

I am refering to this one:
http://www.srb2wiki.sepwich.com/index.php?title=Character_WAD

So what do you not understand? :?
SPECIFY please!

 

[Joshthehedgehog]

My problem is trying to test my wad out BEFORE I replace the sprites...

I can't seem to know how to work the sprites. It makes hardly any sense.

 

[Joshthehedgehog]

Might wanna fix that quote...

That's rather impossible. You have to have the sprites loaded into the wad for SRB2 to read them.

 

[Joshthehedgehog]

I mean like test it with normal sonic instead of my sprites....

 

[Rob]

Test WHAT with Sonic instead of your sprites?

 

[Joshthehedgehog]

..... The S_SKIN, and the other things to go along with it...

 

[supersonic45]

Uh, I'm still confused.

 

[Rob]

There's no point in thesting an S_SKIN without the intended sprites, simply because it probably won't look right. It's best to make your sprites first, ignore the S_SKIN until you have the sprites looking right, and then set your S_SKIN.

 

[supersonic45]

How do you make the sprites? Also whenever I run XWE it says file cannot be found. Then it says the file it's looking for is called DOOM2.WAD. What is it talking about?

You need to change that to Srb2.srb

Where is it?
