Mod Wizard has never worked for me the first try I tried to get it. Is it because I placed the files in the wrong place? Is it because my main.cs isn't right? I don't know. But I want to start modding and a little help would be greatly appreciated. Anybody have what a main.cs should look like if they're a modder. Where to put it would also help alot. Thanks.

Download instructions" for ModWizard 1.3
_____________________________________________________________________________

Goto the heading "Files" in the column on the left side of this web site.

Select "Utilities" form under the heading "Files" in the column on the left side of this web site.

On the "Utilities" page select "ModWizard 1.3 (-z)"

On the 6) "Download" page select either:

Installation Instructions" for ModWizard 1.3
_____________________________________________________________________________
So, you have a folder named mw13-pc or 13-mac which you just downloaded from PTT .

In that folder you will find 4 folders named:
client
help
ReadMe
server

Now put that folder somewhere good. Like in your Modding folder or wherever you are keeping all your Modding stuff.

Make a duplicate of the mw13-pc or 13-mac folder. So, now you have 2. The second one is going to be moved to the ThinkTanks Game.
_____________________________________________________________________________
I don't know where you keep your ThinkTanks Game game so you will have to find it yourself.
by default:
WIN - c:/Program Files/BraveTree/ThinkTanks/
WIN - c:/Program Files/Shockwave/ThinkTanks/game
MAC -HardDrive/Applications/Games/ThinkTanks or where ever yo u put it.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Find the game folder

WIN - In the ThinkTanks folder is a folder named "game"
WIN - ThinkTanks/game
WIN - ThinkTanks/game

MAC - Control+Click the "ThinkTanks" icon and select Show Package Contents In list view select "Contents" then "Resources" then "game".
MAC -ThinkTanks/Contents/Resources/game/

_____________________________________________________________________________
In the "game" folder you will find other folders: "client", "data", and "server".
"client" - /game/client
"data" - /game/data
"server" - /game/server

_____________________________________________________________________________
Now the installation instructions for ModWizard 1.3 clearly state that you are to put copies of the contents of the folders from the mw13-pc or 13-mac folder into the corresponding folders of the ThinkTanks Game.

mw13-pc or 13-mac folder contents: ------>

The contents of the "help" folder of the mw13-pc folder need to go into the "help" folder of the game.
mw13-pc or 13-mac /help/ ------> /game/client/help/

The contents of the "client" folder of the mw13-pc or 13-mac folder need to go into the "scripts" folder in the "client" folder of the game.
mw13-pc or 13-mac /client/ ------> /game/client/scripts/

The contents of the "server" folder of the [ mw13-pc or 13-mac folder need to go into the "scripts" folder in the "server" folder of the game.
mw13-pc /serve/ ------> /game/server/scripts/

mw13-pc or 13-mac /ReadMe/ -This is the actual read me for ModWizard 1.3 and since this is a copy you can delete it. Remember where the original is because you will want to refer to it until you have memorized the key commands. You may even want to print it.

_____________________________________________________________________________
Now you need to tell the ThinkTanks Game to use ModWizard 1.3 .
We do this by creating an executable command. "exec"

WIN - In the ThinkTanks folder below the "game" folder is a file named "main.cs".
ThinkTanks/main.cs

MAC - Control+Click the "ThinkTanks" icon and select Show Package Contents In list view select "Contents" then "Resources" then "main.cs".
MAC -ThinkTanks/Contents/Resources/main.cs

Open the "main.cs" using the text editor program. (Notepad is the default for WIN and Text Edit for MAC) .

At the very bottom of main.cs file, add the following lines:

 

 

                                        

                                        

                                        // ModWizard 

                                        exec("game/server/scripts/ModWizardMain.cs"); 

                                        if (!$Server::Dedicated) { 

                                        moveMap.bindCmd(keyboard, "m", "", "exec("game/client/scripts/ModWizardBindings.cs");"); 

                                        }

                                        

                                        

 

 

At this point I'm being redundant with the installation instructions for ModWizard 1.3
