After all this time-after all these Scratch mods, I still don't know how to do it. What do I download, what do I click, what do I type-it's madness(THIS IS MADNESS-THIS IS SPARTA!)(Sorry for 300 reference
). Anyways, can someone tell me what to do? Please answer these questions...
What do I need to download?
What are some really good tutorials?
How do I save my mod as an .exe?
Please help me!

eh! thanks for bumping, eh?
well, if you're up to the challenge, i suggest you experiment with it first before creating your public official mod. here's the steps.
-> download the scratch source. http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Source_Code
-> add the scratch skin to it (same site).
-> go to the folder scratch is installed in, and copy the EXE file and all the relative DLL's to the previously download source folder, where the scratchsource1.4.image is.
-> double-click the EXE file. you should find the scratch source code in development mode
-> get familiar with the browser and Squeak programming. here's a few good tutorials:
Cool custom blocks in Scratch
Squeak's mini-tutorial on Smalltalk syntax
The elusive show/hide list blockswhere i started, although it's not the best place to do so
I will make a tutorial soon, stay tuned on this post for an edit!
EDIT: http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=39173 it's not finished though

It's not really that hard. Start by rooting around through the code and trying to make a few simple blocks. Stuff like clone, delete, paint new sprite, and right click are all fairly simple to do.

if you're not able to do that yourself, i highly recommend you look at this post to get familiar with the block specs and general syntax. it will help you a lot. and i mean it.

After looking that over, I have 1 question which is the only thing in my way. I made the code for the link to block under " 'control' ", so what would be the corresponding instance ops? Thanks for all the help!

Hi! I'm making a mod too! Well I'm going to... Can you help me 'cause I'm not sure how to edit the source. (I have Squeak installed!)
Edit: Never mind... I figured it out!
