First of all, I'm very tired of no one answering my questions. I try to help people all the time, and what do I get? Didily [raw danger!]. I always have to leave the bugfixes to myself, leading to map delays, leading to angry mobs, leading to all out [raw danger!].


Anyway, here's my problem that no one will care to answer (I know no one will, it's like a natural order or something):

I tried to follow Zerted's tut (video links don't work, so I followed the script), but I don't understand where he got common.lvl from. If Load munging doesn't work, then how come it did after the second step in the tut? It says to enable load munging, which would be clicking the checkbox known as Load.

Well, I got past that after copying common.lvl to Load. So now I can't find "loadscreen" (with and without quotes) anywhere in common.lvl. I can't open it in notepad because it just freezes the program, and XVI32 requires you to find it manually, go to the first letter of it, and hit find (that is such [raw danger!]!). So now what? I'll have to create a req for it after this, but what do I put in it?

I swear the best things in modding are curses for me to figure out.

I don't think Zerted will mind if I upload the video tutorial to Filefront again, since it's previous links were corrupted. Filefront

Thanks. At least someone helped.

EDIT: Aww dang. Filefront is under maintenance. I guess I'll have to wait until later to get the video.

I actually had a really tough time locating that thing, too. Eventually I found one day where the link was working. If the link above doesn't work for some reason, PM me and I'll upload it somewhere.

Also, one reason for not getting posts could very well be that nobody else has the answer--I've had a couple of posts here go by like that. I'm sure you weren't intentionally snubbed.

And what happens a lot as well is that there suddenly is a WAVE of topics (most of the time topics with questions that have allready been answered <_<) wich makes your topic move down the list and that way the topic often stays quite un-noticed. I've had that problem a few time as well. Lucky there are stil enough people who have the habit to check ALL the new topics.

The whole thing about nobody answering questions is a tough one. Sometimes folks need more info, sometimes people just don't know, sometimes it's been answered many times before, and sometimes those that do know don't have time to answer. Not sure what happened, but just try to be patient. The community is really helpful, it's just hard to keep up with so many topics.

Yeah, sorry about that, but it was just annoying that only 2-3 out of about 6 of my topics I've ever made in this thread have been answered.

But anyway, this is solved, so you can lock it.
