Is there Any way to get ALL of this in PDF?
 
:No there isn't, but Lord Gannondorf is compiling a modmaker manual you may be interested in. [http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=938625 Here's the thread on the GECK forums.]

==Load Doors==
Is there any possibility of someone creating a page pertaining to them? They're fairly important aspects, yet are barely touched upon, and I'm not the only person having trouble with them.
 
==Editor Warnings and Solutions==
Is there a list of editor warnings and solutions anywhere? I've been looking, but I can't seem to find one. I know that many of the warnings can be ignored, but some of them are important, and some of them can be fixed. If there isn't a list already, it might be worthwhile to add one. People who have questions about these warnings should be able to look them up on the wiki instead of googling them or asking on the forums, which wastes everyone's time. It might also be useful as a bug list for non-benign errors which could be corrected in a patch. [[User:Truant|Truant]] 17:04, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
:I have an incomplete document that lists many scripting-related warnings and what to do about them. I was planning on completing, or at least doing a bit more work on it, before uploading it anywhere, but if you'd like I suppose I could upload it to the Wiki now.<br />-- [[User:Cipscis|Cipscis]] 23:24, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
::After giving the matter some thought, here are some tentative suggestions.
 
::The wiki has a 'Solutions' category which can be used as an umbrella category for the following subcategories:
 
::*Editor warnings and solutions. A more or less comprehensive list of editor warnings and how to correct them. Whether or not specific warnings can be safely ignored or should be corrected before releasing a mod should also be clearly indicated. These should be copied and pasted directly from EditorWarnings.txt so that they can be easily searched for by users. (An exception should be made for warnings which refer to specific references--like warnings which include specific cell coordinates or the names of missing textures--in which case generic warnings should be used instead.) These should probably be listed alphabetically on their own page and linked to from other pages so that all of the editor warnings are listed in a single document.
::*Editor bugs and workarounds. These are glitches like rendering issues in the render window, difficulty saving input to text input fields in the region editor, problems saving heightmaps without saving the plugin first, etc. These are run-of-the-mill bugs that won't show up anywhere as warnings and should probably be listed by tool: heightmap editor bugs, region editor bugs, render window bugs, etc. It is probably best if this information is actually included on the wiki pages for each of these tools and then linked to from this list rather than duplicated.
::*Common modding errors and how to avoid them. These are 'best practices' for releasing clean mods that work as intended without errors. These should be organized by task: generating heightmaps, generating regions, generating LOD, etc. It is probably best if this information is actually included on the wiki pages for each of these tools and then linked to from this list rather than duplicated.
::*Solutions to common modding tasks. These are workflows or scripts that solve common modding tasks like the ones that are already listed on the solutions page.
::*FAQs for common questions about platform compatibility, etc. The existing FAQs page is fine as is.
 
::The solutions category currently has the last two items, and information is available regarding some of the issues for the second and third items in various places on the wiki, but the first item is completely absent and a source of a great deal of concern and confusion for a lot of people.
 
::Including all of this information in a single location (even if much of it consists merely of links) should go a long way toward solving a lot of these problems for a lot of people, cut down on the frequency of requests for help on the forums, and improve the overall quality of mods. (It might also be a good idea to include redirect pages for 'troubleshooting' and similar terms to lead people directly to the Solutions category.) [[User:Truant|Truant]] 12:58, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
 
== Need More Examples ==
 
Some script examples only show you some of the function, and not other options that go with the function.
 
'''For example:'''
 
''Syntax''
 
----
 
''Enable FadeIn:Int{Default = 1}''
 
 
''Example''
 
----
 
''TerminalRef.Enable''
 
 
It does not show anything about "FadeIn" in the example.
 
==Question - How to edit the main page==
The main page appears to be locked, is it not? So how does one correct spelling errors or add missing words to the main page? In particular, in this text clip from the mainpage "releasing your mods to share you efforts with others", the word "you" is clearly wrong and needs to be "your".
 
--[[User:Pyro|Pyro]] 13:56, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
 
:The main page and a few other pages are locked to protect the main structure of the Wiki. If these pages need to be edited it's usually small things like this, or major overhauls, which should be discussed beforehand. In both cases the [http://geck.bethsoft.com/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&username=&group=regulator&limit=100 regulators] can make the changes.
:I fixed the spelling error. Let me know if you find any more.

:it would be nice if someone would put the link for the NV version of the GECK on the mainpage [[User:Justonething|Justonething]] 21:25, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
 
==Xbox PS3 and Wii==
: Maybe we should Make a note some were that this is for PC only and not platforms?

--[[User:Omzy|Omzy]] 19:10, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
 
=== FAQ ===
 
The [[FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]] page has answers to common questions about the GECK and modding in general. For simple questions, this would be the place to start.
 
=== Solutions ===
 
Like any miracle of modern technology, the GECK can be complicated and puzzling to use at times, and figuring out how to do something may not be obvious at first glance. The [[:Category:Solutions|Solutions]] page is the place to find answers to problems others have posed before they are wiki-fied and converted into their own articles.
 
=== Advanced Modding Techniques ===
 
As you get the hang of the GECK, you'll probably want to start releasing your mods to share your efforts with others. No doubt you'll also want to use more sophisticated methods to develop, organize, and present your mod. The [[:Category:Advanced Modding Techniques|Advanced Modding Techniques]] page has articles to improve your style, efficiency, and prowess with the GECK. The GECK is a powerful tool, and is in fact capable of doing things it wasn't even designed to do! The Advanced Modding Techniques page also includes articles on how to get the GECK to do fancy tricks like rolling over or playing dead! Actually, kidding on those last two.
 
=== Mod Tools ===
 
The GECK is powerful, but not all-powerful. The [[:Category:Mod Tools|Mod Tools]] page has information on other Tools that can help in the modding process, such as programs to manage loaded plugins, or to edit resource files like meshes and textures.
 
:Looks good to me, but I'm not very involved with the GECK Wiki and I don't want to step on any toes; do Haama or Qazaaq still edit here? If so, I think I would rather that they do this, since Qazaaq, at least, I know was more involved than I.
