Would anyone care to help an absolute newbie on plug making please?

I did some thing with Res-Edit, and it goes well. I added a weapon and stuff, but I have two problems.

  1. So far, I've been using a copied version of EVo's data files, but I don't seem to get the file into a plug-in. how is this done?
  2. If you look at the wëap resource, you see 'blaze cannon', 'hunter missile', etc, but how do you give a name to your own techs? Sof far, it's only blank.

This are proboly dumb questions, but I would appreciate it if you helped me.
Thanks in advance,
Thimoty

I'm not an expert in Res-edit but heres how you give it your own name:Select the item that you want to chage and hit Command-I.For the plugin problem just open it in Schmelta-v and in the file menu select:Export to plugin.I'll work a little with Res-edit and see if there isn't a way to do it without getting Schmelta.

Hmm. What's Schmelta? Is it free? Where can I get it? 😛

Wait!You have to know how to make ä and ď.

To make a letter with the dots over them, hold down option, then hit "u". You should NOT see anything be typed. Then, hit the letter you want the dots over.

Dan! The food's gone!

Open the data files in Res-edit. Copy them, open your plug and paste them in your plug. I think that is what you are trying to do?
