How to use Slade?

[RainbowKitty11]

I'm so confused, I want to make a wad and I have already chosen the pallete to Sonic and the base resource to srb2.srb. And now I don't know what to do! And I have already done all the sprites! I don't know where to start from here, I've already got the S_SKIN1 and OBJCTCFG written in notepad. Somebody please help.. This is really hard for me and please explain to me in the most basic of ways.

There you go.

That still didn't help.

How I always start is by clicking the "create a new empty entry" button torwards the top of the program window. Then when a new entry is created, I rename it to the appropriate name and then right click the entry. Then I just import the needed file, simple as that! (Note: Remember to right-click images afterwards to convert them to doom format.)

I'll guess with the fact that all your files have the correct file name (S_SKIN1, OBJECTCFG, and all the sprites files called NAMEAx.)
To answer to what I understood, you're now supposed to import these files in a wad, so create the wad (with Slade) by going in File > New > Wad archive.
Import your sprites, texts, and other entries with Archive > Import files.

That doesn't answer any of his questions. Before you link to a wiki page without any further comments, make sure it actually helps.

Oh, I'm sorry, it's just SB2 wiki links have been posted instead if actual suggestions, I assumed posting a link to it would solve any problem.

The problem is that there's no tutorial for SLADE on SRB2Wiki. I believe there was one in the making but never finished.

Question: In the S_SKIN 1 do I import the actual notepad file or do I just copy what it says? Or would either way work?

 

[Shadow Hog]

Either way works.

Wouldn't that make another wad?

No it wouldn't, if you already made a new archive the go to the 'Import Multiple Files Into Archive' button, import you're files (as many as you like!) and bingo! That should do the trick.
