clintonius Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Does anyone know of a better tutorial than http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Main_Page? If not, are any of the modders with extensive experience with the Construction Set working on a proper tutorial for the CS? I would have already made one but my experience with the CS is limited and I'm not the best code writer. All I know is that this trial and error stuff is for the birds; not to mention time consuming. Any help concerning this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezlo Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 I'm also having problems with the CS. I tried following the "My First Dungeon" tutorial from the CS Wiki, but when I dragged objects to the Render Window, the window remained blank. Turning lighting on/off did not help so I quit. Is this a common issue with a simple solution or is it something to do with my system? Mez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mez Well, mez I think i know what went wrong, you didn't load a cell... at least that's the only thing you did wrong, you have to duplicate a cell and when you've done that double click on your new cell, when you've done that, your screen will open the old cell (you've duplicated it) than delete everything and put in stuff, when you've lost your stuff, it's fairly easy to find it back, in the screen right to the cell, you'll notice everything you've placed in it (it's the screen you've used to delete everything), just double click the thing you want to see, press A and than T for Topview or C for well I don't now where C stands for, Cinematic or something :P i hope that helped....

You are correct! I highlighted my duplicated cell (which allowed me to delete items, etc) but I did not double-click it. I'm sure the guide said to double-click but I have a bad habit of "skim reading" and I miss little things like that. ;) Thanks for the help.

finniksa Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 I haven't started with the construction set much. I used to play & make mods for NWN, and so I looked at the construction set for Oblivion and thought, wow... that's a mess. But I'll eventually get to it, when I'm "done" with the game. Here's a tutorial I found that might be helpful: http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/index.p...howtopic=408359 Check the author's other posts. I believe s/he made some more tutorials. :) I don't know if they're helpful, but they look good at first glance. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
