Q: When I finish my D-Mod, how do I zip it up to distribute?

D-Mod Author's FAQ Revision 1.3
A: If you have WinZip, I believe the task is easier. There is also a tool for winzip to make self-extracting EXE's out of a ZIP file. There is a similar tool for PKZIP DOS but it doesn't automate the installation. Anyway, I use PKZIP 2.04G for DOS, and I created a batch file called M.BAT. I put this file in my D-Mod directory. Then, I run a dos-prompt and change into my D-Mod directory. From there, I just type M.BAT <enter> and it does it! M.BAT contains: pkzip dmodname.zip *.

Q: What tools do I need to create a D-Mod?

D-Mod Author's FAQ Revision 1.3
A: You need to own a copy of Dink Smallwood on CD (available from RTSoft at www.rtsoft.com). There is a folder on your DINK CD called "develop". Copy everything from this folder into your main Dink directory. That's it! The map editor is called DINKEDIT.EXE. I'd recommend downloading DinkRun (mine) or CreatedWorlds (Silencer's) as a front-end for running DinkEdit. NEW: I have created a D-Mod Skeleton which is the shell of a D-Mod you can simply UNZIP into a Dink subdirectory of your choice.

Q: How do I start creating my D-Mod? What do I do first?

D-Mod Author's FAQ Revision 1.3
A: Well, after making sure you copied the development folder off your CD into your main Dink directory, you need to make a subdirectory for your D-Mod. Under your main Dink directory, make a folder (directory) to store your D-Mod files. For instance, my main Dink directory is C:\DINK\ so I made a folder under this called SCAROFD and ended up with C:\DINK\SCAROFD\ to begin my Scar of David D-Mod.

Q: How can I take a "screen shot" of my D-Mod?

D-Mod Author's FAQ Revision 1.3
A: When I wanted to put pictures of Dink's Doppelganger on my web site, I tried and tried to make it work but I couldn't. Finally, I found an EASY (and probably the best) way to do it. While playing the game (or while in the map editor) get to the screen you want to capture. Then, simply hit the <print-screen> key on your keyboard. Nothing visible will happen, but the current screen will be copied to your clipboard.

Q: Do I need to be a programmer, or know C, to write a D-Mod?

D-Mod Author's FAQ Revision 1.3
A: This kind of depends on your personal talent, and how dedicated you want to be in learning how. Dink-C might carry over the same basic style as the C programming language, but it's very different and much easier. It's more of a scripting language than a programming language. Having programming experience is a big plus, especially if it's in C, but I don't think it's absolutely necessary if you read through TUT1.

Q:- What's the new "RSR stealth mod"?

FAQ
A:- Some people wanted the extra sound for their 993 but was afraid that they would loose points at a concour for having a modified muffler. So the "RSR stealth mod" basically is a modification method that I used to cut open and weld up the RSR muffler at the original factory welded seam where it is visually very difficult to identify that the muffler was ever modified.
