I don't mean to discourage you, but I think your plan might be a little

ambitious for a first d-mod. Not that you couldnt do a huge d-mod for your first

project, but it will take a long time (or be lame if you dont spend the time) and you may

have to go back and correct little mistakes you made when you were still learning. I think

you should make something smaller like "Dink and the Pirate Cave" or whatever. But dont think its a waste of time, small d-mods can still be lots of fun.

Yeah,you probably have a good point.

Then I will start with a small DMOD.

(The 6 screens will stay there until I have more experience in making DMODS)

Oh,sorry if I dont change the tile screen,but its because in dinkedit the "Tile" apears unavaible,and below it,"Uper". Whats it????

My windows (95,if its the problem)is lower???

Or my computer slow?? THanks

Hehe, that doesn't mean a thing. It's always like that. I think the suggestion is that it's MORE than a tile editer, not that it's isn't a tile editor. "Uber" (not Uper) means super.

Tile screen? What is that exactly? Do you mean title screen? If so, that's not changed in DinkEdit, but with scripts. (Look for start*.c)

A Tile screen is a screen where you can choose a tile to stamp in your D-Mod (it's done in DinkEdit). To see a tileset (each Tile screen shows a tileset), go to the editor, then to a screen like in Dink, then press 1,2,3 etc. (and you can also hold CTRL, ALT or SHIFT and ALT + ~ for more). Choose a tile and press Enter. You can now stamp that tile with S (you can use C to copy a tile that's already on the screen).
