Getting Started: Development Pathways ( Contents / Previous / Next ) Modding Paths At this point the tutorial splits into two methods. Which tutorial you follow on to read will depend on how you want to mod the game. These two methods are called the WAD and DATA methods. I have listed some information about each method below. WAD Method (Yet to post these tutorials) This is the original way to modify Rock Raiders. This method require that you rebuild new WAD files after you have done your modifications. You will not be able to see your mods until you rebuild the WAD file. The cons of this method is that it's a bit slower to mod however if you intend to create a big overhaul overhaul of the game the method allows you to easily distribute the mod. DATA Method (Yet to post these tutorials) The easiest way to mod. With this method you no longer need the WAD files. You can make changes and launch the game without needing to rebuild WADs like the previous method. However some people have experienced some odd gameplay issues with this method. Neither method is a bad choice, you'll just need to keep in mind what your method requires or doesn't require you to do.
