I was just wondering why hasnt anyone ever made a proper sea trading game, not that bad type that you are constantly on a map and you click around to certain towns and sell stuff, i mean using the dink goes boating idea, you could make you be able to sail to a whole bunch of towns fight pirates and other, anyway i must go now i shall cheak this post tommorow

Nice idea but you would need someone good at graphics to make aything decent, and a lot of DMOD makers lack that skill.

I mean I guess someone could rip-off a selection of graphics from other games, but that idea is worthy it's own graphics.

Making a dmod is not so hard as it seems to be. But making a good dmod takes time.
For starting just download a skeleton dmod and start creating.

PUtting graphics in a dmod it has been written in tutorials so everything you want to know is available in the download development file.

ANd scripting: There are enough sourcepacks and tutorials you can read about. It isn't that hard. It looks hard but when you learn to read a script a world will open for you.

And when you're stuck with something place a topic on this board and the ones who wanted to help will answer you're topic and you're problem will be solved.

This board helped me a lot of times when I had a problem. ANd when you have trouble to start creating a dmod this board will also help.
