One is the program itself (its called Oxygen, or o2 for short) and the other one is the "External Viewer" (also known as Bulldozer). You dont actually need the viewer to make addons, but its almost impossible to use o2 without it. So you need both zips then (and dont extract anythink before you are told to do so). | + | First you must download Oxygen and viewer.

| With this file (a BAT file works like an EXE file, you click on it and it executes the commands), a "fake" Z:\ drive will appear in "My Computer" . Dont worry, your harddrive is not messed up. Its just so that windows thinks that the folder it points to is a root drive (which is really not true, its on C.\ofpedit). Think of that fake Z:\ drive as a shortcut to that folder. Also, windows loose the fake Z-drive each time windows restarts, so you need to execute this bat file each time you turn on your computer. That is why many people put this one in their "startup folder" for windows, but you`ll make that one out yourself. //(NOTE: If you already have a Z:\ drive and the Z is already taken , you might wanna write another letter. Just pick one and remember that whenever you see a Z: for the rest of the lesson, write your letter instead).// | With this file (a BAT file works like an EXE file, you click on it and it executes the commands), a "fake" Z:\ drive will appear in "My Computer" .

| The first time you start, you will most likely get some error messages of some sort, the viewer will look weird or something like that. Thats ok for now. Just close the viewer window if it keep causing trouble and find the "Options"-dialog on the "File" menu in the main editor window. This lists all of the settings. To change a value, click on each list item and change it using the edit box below. Its just the 6-8 topmost settings that really needs changing, so dont bother with the once in the bottom. Here is what it should look like.

| If you get an error message or it displays a open sea instead, something went wrong. Make sure you have followed the EXACT instructions above. Also check out the hint about 3d card trouble at the end of this page. Try the official forums (see link page), they have a section for o2 bugs and stuff.
