Hold up lemme go get the damn quote...

You want to make an addon?
Okay.
Here's what you need to do.
1. Open a tab to google
2. Search this stuff.
-1-Blender version (2.49, 2.59 take both)-need this for modeling. 2.49 is needed for the exporter and animation, and 2.59 is for modeling your stuff.
-2-Cgtuts blender interface tutorial-watch this to use blender. Can be applied to all versions
-3-Notepad++-need this for scripting
3. Now go to the modification help section and look for the big list of tutorials once you have everything, and if you look through a few pages, you can find the general blender help thread.

Enjoy learning and figuring out how to make addons.

[otto-san]

it depends on what type of addon.

all of them pretty much require some scripting knowledge, so start there.

OKAY YOUR FIRST ADD-ON TUTORIAL

First, open up Notepad.

Next, type in

Code: [Select]

function hello()
{
echo("hello, world");
}
Now, save that file to your desktop as server.cs

Next, open up notepad again, and type in

Title: Hello world
Author: Me

Save that to  the desktop as description.txt

Now, select server.cs, right-click it, and click "Send to Compressed (Zipped) file" and name it server_hello.

Do not add .zip, it automatically adds it.

Finally, double-click on server_hello.zip and drag in your description.txt, then install it like you would any other add-on.

Lastly, start up a game, enable your add-on, open up the console (~ button) and type in hello();

The game should print

Hello, world

in the console.

Congratz, you made an add-on.

You have to forward an email to the CIA asking them to file a weapon report. They will then authorize a clearing for your weapon, and give you a temporary model until you design the proper model for the weapon. Once done, you send in the model and they will translate it into a top secret code they have, and then give you a weapon template via email.

You then open your weapon topic and download a second copy of Blockland.

Once this is done, click on account group settings and uncheck 'default add-ons'.

Now your weapon should show up.
