Making Mods for vb5

[micheal332001]

I have looked and looked for info about say converting a mod over to vb5,
but there is no info on this and no info on where to start for a developer like my self.

As far as i see when you make an add-on now you have to make the pages for that add-on within the xml file,
but vb5 has no way of doing this in the xml file, so i have had to come up with a way to do this my self.

To learn this new vb5 is a pain in the A*S and it will not be easy for anyone making or converting a mod over to this version of vb5.

To add a tab to the menu is not that hard you just have to get the array and add to that array.

First part sorted but as to making the pages and the routes to these pages is a pain as you have to use a template.php file to get the templates needed for your add-on.

VB5 has not made this simple or user friendly for developers.

I will be releasing my demo mod very soon so some developers might be able to use this to start converting there mods over,
But vb needs to make this easyer for add-on developers so that the can get there mods converted or made easyer.

Making such a system like this should have thought about this before even thinking on releasing the beta versions so that add-on developers could have a standered way to start from instead of having to make there own way round the system and making things up as they go.
