Can I hazard a guess? I think what he was trying to say was, "I know I'm so fu*king stupid for asking this, but how do you get the Freedinkedit to work or let you play the (*takes time considering whether or not 'play the edit' means your game or something entirely*) you made before posting it."

Why wouldn't it let you play it? I mean, it would be stupid to make a game you yourself couldn't play. I'm sure that the dink editor thing your using will let you play.

I'm not really familiar with freedinkedit, but it should work just like Windows Dinkedit, ie, the stuff you edit should be saved automatically. If you edited the original game, for example, the changes should be there when you play it.

If you edited some other dmod, you need to launch DFArc (dfarc3.exe), and pick the dmod you edited from the list to play it. Of course, you should already be familiar with DFArc, if you edited a dmod before.
