Hoi chummer...
Welcome to the index.

This guide is premerally a collection of links to information relating to modding shadowrun returns. Think of it as a prostetic, collective memory for the SRR modding community here on steam.

if your getting into this, your really going to need to read Shadowrun returns Wiki[shadowrun-returns.wikispaces.com]. The wiki contains excillent tutorials on the use of the editor, as well as the addition of other material such as custom art assets. If you want to make mods for shadowrun returns, you need to read this sit.
Know your setting chummer.
There is a hell of a lot of shadowrun material out there, but not all of it fits well with Shadowrun Returns.

Shadowrun returns takes place in the 2050's, so it you'll probably want to check out Shadowrun 1st edition[rpg.drivethrustuff.com], and the Seattle sourcebook 1st edition[rpg.drivethrustuff.com] at the very least.

You can additionally get other cool and interesting setting reading for both 1st edition and 2nd edition Here[rpg.drivethrustuff.com] and Here[rpg.drivethrustuff.com]

You can also find a quick guide to shadowrun slang Here[www.shadowruntabletop.com]
Building better worlds: Mapping
In this section we talk about Mapping. The basics of mapping are simple, and any chummer can put together a basic area using these skills. However, mastery of this takes practice.

HBS has put together two tutorial videos, covering the basics. They are an great place to start.

Tell me a tale...
At its core, a game like SRR stands on the strength of its storytelling, rather than anything else. This section contains a number of links to blogs, books and other resources, which can give you a little hard won advice on how to pull together a good story

This looks fantastic. Peace and love to all.

I'll look into it, see what I can find on the subject.

while i have attempted this processwithin the editor, a nice resource that would be very useful is a charecter databse for sprites and equipment/base stats of the game. its a big undertaking, but would prove a verry valuble resource to alll Dev's as right now the process is, find an item, put it on and playtest to see if u like how it looks.

Also, sprite animations as well, it would be nice to see what these look like before testing a scene.

Hi!

I did everything like you show in first quickstart video tutorial but when I try to start Test scene there is an error appears. There no any information only that it`s failed with 4 errors.

What could be the reason?

Thanks for your help!

Well now that you mention Goals, I didnt set any up... as for the player spawner, yes, I put one down. Regardless, I will check out the goals, thanks all!

@[ SK.NET ]SaiyajinNoOuji - Simplest guess, did you place a player spawner? Other than that I wouldn't be sure without seeing it
Benjamin.Wenham  [skapare] 30 jul, 2013 @ 3:30 
Short of suggesting that you check out your maps goals, it is pretty difficult to offer advice on that, without having a look at the map. Even then, there are probably better people to help you out ;)
[SK.NET]SaiyajinNoOuji 30 jul, 2013 @ 3:11 
Thanks for posting this! I watched the first video and made a simple map... although I am running into a problem of when I try to do a test run, it just shows a black screen with "Mission Failed!". Not sure what I am doing wrong... I created a simple docks area and put a Player Spawn node, much like in the first video. Any info would be appreciated!

I am glad you found it useful.
