Cool. What files usually deal with the dive alarms? I would like to change the crash dive alarm to the standard dive alarm(crash dive alarm is annoying, prefer the standard as it was in stock for both regular and crash dive) this is for TMO but usually in same paths so.

Request for a sticky for S3D greens
 

There is some explanations here: http://s3d.skwas.com/docs.aspx but I admit it is scarse and this thread is scary ginormous to say the least.

So far I just did some modification on .dds files and previewing the result in the game with nothing else than DDS converter and Gimp. I'm ready for the next level but what a jump to take.

As far as I understand S3D is a specialized application to work in between SH4 and 3D modelers. 3D modelers I can search for that but...

Could it be possible to refer some links, info on where to find disembiguation for the very basics? for example; Defining what the different chunks do and their hierarchy.

We just need enough info so we can stop endless research, start destroying things and eventually be able to help you in serious modding.

Maybe a new [TEC] sticky or something?

For virgins like us it's getting hard to get the startup info to get involved.

I know I should've been there four years ago but I wasn't. Now I have the kick and time to do it and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. Something tells me a lot of modders would love to have some help for the repetitive tasks...

I don't really have time to explain basics, perhaps someone else can, but this thread is interesting for sure for newcomers:

Very interesting indeed, thanks! I didn't find this thread so you've already made my day or should I say my week. I totally understand you have other things to do and I think it's obvious you've done more than enough already. Maybe if I bribe you for it...?? ... come on Skwasjer PM me your price hehe...:arrgh!:

Hopefully someone else here will work on some explanations. the only thing I can do right now is to comment on the (TUT) thread after going through it so maybe someone can complete what is left blank there.

Think about it guys, you need more brains/hands to get your super mods out? You need some over-enthousiastic wannabes like me. Below is what I found in this thread about starting to write this bible. I'm posting it again as a refresh for the suscribed:

Is there a D/L mirror anywhere? I can't get skaws site to load.

Ducimus - what are you looking to download ? I can mail Skwas for you and also have the install files for S3D .... although given the amount of modding you've famously done ... I'm guessing you've already got it ;-)

I think I did download some of SKWAS' video tutorials at some point ... I'll have rummage around ... just let me know what you are looking for.

Was looking for the latest version of S3D (0.99?). I uninstalled in a couple months ago, and didn't keep the install file handy.

This one?
 

I thought that Duc was having a problem with the website .... seems to be up and available to download today .... but if you still have problems, I have the installer somewhere.

Look into SKWASJAER directory...

Yes, the url has been on and offline (and still is) for the past days. I am migrating to a dedicated server for my other commercial stuff, and due to some configuration issues the DNS servers are confused. It should be sorted by tomorrow.

Thanks for the mirror links. Will D/L sometime this week.

Don't get your hopes up. Yes, there are a couple things i want to look at, but i'm also perfectly happy with leaving them how they are. I'm honestly at a point of detachment where I really don't care what people say about anything i worked on, either good or bad. For example If someone says to me, "your work is schitt", i'll yawn in their face. I just don't care anymore.

Well, I just can't help it. :D

Unsure of why you say this... certainly hope I haven't said anything that would upset you. The very last I would have wanted.

And honestly can't remember seeing any post anywhere saying nothing but good about your work. May it be WIP, REL, WA or what not.


But it still raises the heart beat a notch when I see you asking for a modding tool... http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...s/biggrin3.gif

Jans right, don't let the ungrateful get you down, you mod for yourself and if others don't like your work they are free to delete it.

BTW, I think you do great work.
:up:

link no more working :(

Yes. They all do work...

Something must be causing trouble in your system. Firewall maybe?

Yes, my site should work.

Just giving an example was all. Nobody's said anything to peeve me, not even if they tried. I've just moved on is all, and have been doing other things. I wanted to do something with SH4 this month, but I find their isn't one iota of motivation within me. Just the same, i should have S3D installed, just for the hell of it. Best mod tool to ever grace the community. It's the McGuyever of mod tools, only better then a swiss army knife. :yeah:
