Hey I just downloaded Dink and I have no clue what a DMOD is or does. I have some ideas on what my game would be about but I don't know what to do. Someone please help me.

Fist of all play the original game, until yoiu get an idea of what it is about and capable of.

A Dmod is an add-on adventure made by enthusiastic players of the original game. These add-ons are created by using the dinkedit program to make the visuals and by making dinkc files which take care of the scripting for the game.

If you are interested in making your own Dmod check out my reply to the question: Accessing graphics question

This should get you started on creating your own adventure. If you have any further question, just place it on this board and someone will help you out.

I've already played the first game but i'm in the middle of the second. I understand how to make DMODs and i've looked through the DinkEdit thingy and I don't know what to do with the hardness and softness things.

when your in the editor and you stamp a tree there or somthing click on the tree press 9 this box will show up on your screen saying
New Hardness?

if you put in 0 it is just a normal tree.
if you put in 1 you can just walk right through it.

If you want to talk to a tree or somthing
click on the tree and hold down Shift and 5 this box says Script. Type In TREE.
now leave the editor and go to your Story Folder and and with your dinkc editor make a file that has this in it

void talk(void)
{
say("That tree is ugly.", 1);
wait (500);
say("Screw you.", ¤t_sprite);
}

this should make it so when you press the talk button by the tree you will say "that is a ugly tree" and the tree will reply "screw you"

pretty kewl huh?
