Platinum Arts Sandbox - Free 3D Game Maker Forum

Heya, a few days back my friend started on this map, with no proper knowledge of SB, but simply to create funky landscapes etc which turned out to be our project RPG, now we need to implement scripts into this map.
Though, we need to do this process on my computer as his cant run the world he created, so he sent me the whole map containing all the models he created as an .rar file.
So I unzipped the file in my games folder so I could open it in SB.. though now we intend to implement quests in it and I only just learned this yesterday though I got a pretty good grip of it.

So my question is:
How is it possible for me to use the map he sent me, create a base folder and start scripting for the map. I already tried unzipping the .rar file inside a default base folder but doesnt seem to work.

Its really urgent..
Project has to be finished by tomorrow at 12 AM CET +1.

Thanks prehand.

RPG maps go in packages/base/rpg

Good luck with finishing it on time!

Put it in packages/base/rpg, create a mapname.cfg or use the mapname - art.cfg, which is created by PAS.
Open the cfg you choosed with a text editor (editor/gedit) and start scripting.

gedit is rather nice, because it colors your scripts, but I'm unsure if it's available for Windows, too.
You should try EasyScriptBuilder by Leo, when you are using Windows, I believe it's rather good.

And at first you should create some maps just for practice, to improve your knowledge and skills.
