The Dink Network

im planning to make a dmod but i cant decide what to make it about

I don't really have a story idea but why don't you try a different type of d-mod like an alternative hero d-mod. Maybe an evil character?

i dont know how to change main character

Download this.

EDIT
if you want to know how you can change the main caracter "Dink Smallwood" I do not know a story Sorry, but make this D-Mod better that the revenge of the pillbugs

ill try to make it better than ROTP

what are the nubers for a pillbug?

sp_base_walk(?, ??);
sp_base_idle(?, ??);
sp_base_attack(?, ??);
sp_distance(?,??);
sp_range(?, ??);

Why would you need sp_range or sp_distance? It's a pillbug!

nothing

OK I NEVER ASKED FOR ALT HEROES I ASKED FOR A STORY!!

OK, here is a story. Albeit a simple one, but you could easily expand on it to make it better.

King Daniel has been turned to stone by some malevolent force. This could be an evil wizard, an ancient artifact, or a curse by the Evil Witch of Sabretroutyevil.
Dink must travel to 3 continents to get the ingrediants for an Anti-petrification potion. Along the way, he has all kinds of Dinky adventures,

This was part of the plot for my canned d-mod Valhalla, and it works pretty well (Well, I like to think so anyway!).

cool but it still too complicated for me

dont you rember ROTP *shudder*

Your name is Joeseph (Joe for short), an assassin from another dimension. You have some how been teleported to the world of Arfenhouse. You atempt to get help, but getting any one to speak in coherentsentences is like pulling teeth. It is madddening as are the seemingly random events that take place and the fact that the whole world seems to be conspiring to kill you. You are often forced to band with the inferioratingly annoying Housemaster and his companions wooggy, GoodKitty, Dog, and a pikachu apparently drawn in paint.

To make it interesing, you could use people from the Dink Network such as Kory for house master.

For inspiration check out ArfenHouse teh movie, Arfen House!! teh Movie too!!1, and Kill Billy: arfenhouse 3 trailer on newgrounds.

thats even more complicated.
i need something simple like "Slaughterhouse"
or "ROTD"

Something very simple? OK, King Daniel sends Dink to retrieve a magic scroll from an evil band of goblins. That's as simple as they come (apart from Dink VS Somerandomenemy type d-mods).

A D-Mod is very much a personal process. If you truly can't think of an adequate story for your D-Mod, don't worry too much about it. Just open up DinkEdit and WinDinkedit and start placing things around, create a world for the story to take place. Place the buildings, create some doors, add some flowers and grass around. Don't worry too much about scripting. Chances are you'll start to automatically come up with a story to fill in the blanks.

And if you're still stuck, do what all writer's do, steal. Think of a good movie, tv show, or book that you've read and try to simplify the plot down to its very core, if possible. There are quite a few stories that boil down to simple 'fetch quests', where the main character is tasked in finding something. Either some potion or elixer, or perhaps finding someone who has been kidnapped.

But truly, the story is one of the least important aspects of a D-Mod (IMHO). If you can get the other stuff right, the story doesn't really matter ... look at D-Mods like the Quest for Cheese.

thanks

ReDink1's idea of just opening the editor and placing things to create a world is perfect! The thing is most ideas dont come at once...they start with one thing that leads to another and expand to make a mosaic of interconnected things!

...or just make this:

*
Dink leaves the house. Outside is a pillbug that he must kill. If he succeeds at killing it a cutscene happens where he goes back in the house and hides behind a bush, masterbating...
*

Ok so that was completely random and lewd, possibly damaging my reputation as a decent, helpful member of the Dink Network, but...I think you get the picture.

Sincerely,

something went wrong, eh?
