Post subject:  Gibs not showwing up for selection in the gib editor
I'm making a machine brain for my next scene (even though i probably won't release it) and spent ages going through the sprite making a gib for each single pixel of it and organising it in an easy way for when i make it in the gib editor, but it won't show up! I can select it at the start, but i don't whant to make them gib, i want to make them the gibs. So i select the "brain" and load it and look through the menu and can't even find the group they go in. Also the TDExplosive used in the gib won't show in the menus at all and that includes the ingame buying menus. If you can fix it please tell me what you did and if you have the time please send me a fixed version, thanks.

Did you add them to a group?
Try loading them in index.ini in Base.rte.
I hope you know how to do that.

:shock: that was crazy quick

yes it contains "[tab here]AddToGroup = Stabiliser Parts"

What do you mean the base.rte thing? and if i changed the base.rte if i wanted to upload it then i would need to change the downloading peoples base.rte too.

I think I understood that.

If you copy the includefiles into base.rte and put the code into your mod, take the includefiles out of base.rte and it should work.
Some of the more experienced modders would be able to explain this better.

Replace [tab] with actual tabbing
Code:
DataModule
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Materials.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Sounds.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Effects.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Ammo.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Devices.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Actors.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Scenes.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = Base.rte/Activities.ini
[TAB]IncludeFile = [Mod].rte/[INI].ini

And comment out the includefiles in mod.rte/Index.ini.

Then load the gib editor, make your gibs, then revert the changes to Base.rte/Index.ini and Mod.rte/Index.ini.

That or learn how to manually add gibs. Honestly, we did it for eighteen builds.

Are you using the gib editor?
Use the instructions above to add the gibs to the gib menu.

And have percise mouse aim.
