Default Re: Modder\'s Guide

When I was making mods for Wierd Worlds (same company), I could crack open the game application and look at all of the weapon / ship / planet / race definitions and graphics. Replacing them with revised (modded) graphics was then a snap, and it was easy to "borrow" an existing graphic or item for a modded one.

I've gone through the provided modder's guide for Doms3, and successfully made a couple of Pretender mods (I'll release them here eventually). However, it would be nice if there was a nice library -- or I was made aware of an existing library -- of graphics, monsters, items, etc. for modmaking. For example, the modders guide shows you how to use an existing sprite for a new monster - but you have to know the number of the sprite you want already.

Any clues on how we can find those?
