Idobek Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 (edited) I made some suggestions to Cam, he liked them, but he couldn't be bothered to implement them, so he is making me do it instead. Some of the tutorial threads in this forum are being clogged up with comments. IMO this distracts for the tutorial and can scare away those that we are trying to help. I'll be the first to admit that I am one of the main perpertrators, but I'm trying to make amends. This is one of those 'please start a new thread for questions and comments' messages. This isn't going to be a hard and fast rule, but if tutorial looks as if it is being overwhelmed by comments I'll split the topic into the main tutorial thread (marked with an !) and a 'Disussion' thread. So, if things look a little different it is because I have been meddling. Oh, if a lot of the posts are Cam and I patting each other on the back I'll probably delete them (or I will - Grim).

Miloch Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Not sure if RPG Dungeon has tutorials anymore either (or they're buried somewhere if so). CoM could be added though. Quote Link to comment
jastey Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Hm? RPG Dungeon's tutorials are here, in the "tutorials and lessons" section. I link there quite often to the romance authoring tutorial. Thank you very much for updating the list, cmorgan (and whoever helped in doing so)! Quote Link to comment
Miloch Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Hm? RPG Dungeon's tutorials are here, in the "tutorials and lessons" section. I link there quite often to the romance authoring tutorial.Hmm, well that looks like only a subset of what they once had. Specifically, I was looking for Rastor's item creation tutorial I linked in this thread, but it seems to be gone now. Quote Link to comment
Rastor Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Hm? RPG Dungeon's tutorials are here, in the "tutorials and lessons" section.

Zireael07 Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Okay, I went through the index, and... the link to JCompton's WEIGHT in BG2... doesn't work. Quote Link to comment
jastey Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Now it does. Thank you! For some strange reason, the link went to the IESDP Archive Forum. Link again: http://forums.gibberlings3.net/index.php?showtopic=1866 I also found this at PPG: Another look at WEIGHTs (jcompton) Quote Link to comment
Callirgos Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 (edited) I can't find a tutorial on adding an item to a container. Can someone direct me? WeiDU / IWDII Edited May 27, 2013 by Callirgos Quote Link to comment
