The one attitude I honestly don't understand is when someone pops up here saying that the game is unplayable, complaining about the download system, stating that he can't bother reading the forum, or demanding someone else to what he claims should be done, and then vanishing again.

That is what I meant. Sorry if I didn't explain clearly, as I have huge respect for the members of this community and honored to be part of it.

It is the "gimme gimme gimme" attitude that kills me sometimes...

From page 78 and up. First of all to read an analyse threads containing 3 or less posts, without marks WIP, REL, TEC and etc., containing private questions ("Help", "How I can..." and so on). It is also possible to send PM to the authors of such threads to ask the permission for deleting before cleaning. So it is all up to moderator

True!
Some of the ones doing posts like that, don't even go beyond the first post, even if they get replied...

As a matter of fact, one of the funniest things of this forum is when 2-3 senior members are puzzling for several days over the problem of someone that will never post again, if only for saying "thank you, I solved" or "sorry guys, it is not so important: after all I still prefer playing pinball"

I would also say that you might want to update some of the thread names from [TEC] >> [WIP] >> [REL], as many mods on this forum went from theoreticall discussion to actually happening; while some of the mods that began as WIP, grown into full scale masterpieces.

Perhaps this SH5 mods forum needs another moderator

Who could fit the job

Edit: First job should be to stop the spamming on this thread

P.S: so far I was missing the need of devoting this thread to some "complete idiots", but everything is getting clear now

Targor Avelany · 09-27-12, 11:29 AM

we really should stop spamming this usefull thread. Even though gap thinks its for complete idiots, but, I argue, even complete idiots have to start somewhere! And goblin editor is not the most friendly and easy to figure out tools out there

p.s. since I posted anywhay - I VOTE FOR TEV TOO!!!

I don't have SH5 but interested in seeing what the goblin editor does. Can someone pm me if they can send it to me. thx.

I originally made this thread because I broke three keyboards with my forehead trying to use goblin editor, and the only other guide I found was so horribly technical, it might as well have been written in Sanskrit. The object of this thread was to one, get the editor working correctly, which is not easy, and showing how to correctly merge the files as it is different from sh3ed. I don't mind the spamming whatsoever, keeps my thready alive

....P.S. If I remember correctly, I was on a three-day drinking binge at the time, which explains a lot,

I don't think it will work without SH5 and grannyviewer.dll from the game.
