SMD Creator has some bugs.. don`t load smds.

Open a New, enter everything - save it. and it should work.

Ok, how to fix this.

1) Delete SMD creator
2) Open up notepad
3) Open your SMD in notepad
4) Edit your SMD in notepad
5) Save

Really, SMD creator sucks, I wish I had never made it, its that bad...

If it was not so buggy it would be useful.

I always use SMD Creator - and it alway worked fine...
It is just the load function that doesent work.. and the . /; problem... Everything else... is great.. thx to Maelstrom, even if he denies it`s usefullness.

SMD creator is far to buggy to be good. But if you wanna make SMD's like a pro, use Notepad++, I specialized notepad for coders. Its free and useful. You can google it since im to lazy to bring up a link.

EditPlus 2 for the win. It's not free but supports regular expressions in the search and replace functions which are pretty useful. If you're smart you can get it to jump to certain tags in one keystroke... 8)
I think N++ supports regex as well.

I lost the source code to the old version :(

I started to remake it, and it was pretty cool, but I never got anywhere near finishing it. If anyone wants the source code to it, I would be happy to supply it?

Either that or I could experiment with making a PHP version, and host it somewhere, shouldnt be THAT hard...
