Soccing Help

[Kaiser the Dragon]

I read SRB2Wiki, and I can't figure out how to start making a SOC. I know. Use SOCEdit. But how do I start making the SOC itself?

Click create new soc. Show the program where the soc is, set the source code to it. Open soc. and edit!

Just play around with the features, you'll figure it out sooner or later.

I never figured it out I kept getting run time error '53'

A SOC is a special text file SRB2 uses for enemies, abilities, and other stuff. You make them via SOC Editor.exe. Before you ask about the runtime error, extract the SRB2 source code from the archive, that comes with 1.09.4. Point the SOC editor to the scr folder. Now you can edit more stuff than you could without it and will not have to worry about runtime errors.

Does this answer your question?

What's the source code's filename?

 

[Blue Fox2]

srb2scr1094.exe. after you extract lead socedit to the folder scr.

Thanks. Now I have more than half a clue what I'm doing.

Sorry to double post, but I have another question. How do I put a SOC into a WAD?

 

[Princess Plushima]

Simply add it as a lump named MAINCFG

Thanks.
