You guys know Patrunjelu? He's one lazy son of a pigfarmer and decided he didn't want to waste his time on scripting anymore. Instead, he developed the Dink Smallwood quest script generator, a very handy file which makes the scripts for you!

Well, not really, you still have to put in the text, but the commands are being generated by the script generator. I messed around with it and it can definitely save you some time. It's still a demo version however, so look out for the full version soon!

This is cool!

A real time saver. Easy to use, too. Waiting for the full version Patrunjelu, are you planning to include commands like sprite attribute editing?

Any progress on the full version, Patrunjelu? It would be an incredible time saver if it could do more functions.

Open it.
Create a script and then you must save it in the /YourDMOD/Story folder.

WinRAR or any other software which is able to open RAR archives.

I object 
Personally I'm quite fond of 7-Zip. And contrary to WinRAR, it's free.

I have started working on the full version. If there is anyone here who could help me with some info and examples of procedures/functions/commands etc. and when/how should they be used and is willing to help, please PM. It will make the development process go faster since I am a beginner of DinkC.

As an example: Procedure X can be used when... but it shouldn't be used if...

I like the idea of this file a lot, I even thought about making something like it myself in the past.

For a list of procedures WITH useful info like you're asking for, check out the DinkC help reference. It's an amazing source of information.
