I want to try making a mod, but don't know how to.
« on: July 14, 2007, 03:39:12 am »
Can someone link me to a tutorial, or tell me what to use to edit source? I can manage making the mod myself, i think, but I don't know how to do anything other than write/copy the code for what I want to do.

Yeah that's what risujin said. Can I use any old one or are there any you'd recommend?

Also, how would I test the stuff I make to see if it works?

It would probably make it easier to actually write the code with some program specifically for programming.  It doesnt need to be able to compile because you can use the command line for that, but it would color-code things.

jGrasp is one that supports multiple coding languages, is free, and (I think) has some cross-platform support.

on win I use scite to  change the code and keep the msys window open when I do all the changes I run make in msys
(and winmerge helps alot - I can keep track of my changes)

on linux I use scite and a terminal window rest is the same

vi beats nano into the ground.
How can anyone use nano for anything more than basic config files?
