That's some pretty ancient command line stuff.
Instead, open DFArc2, go to edit -> options, and check the "Show developer buttons" box. After that, an EDIT button should appear on DFArc.

dang need help again i did what u said but whenever i click the edit button the dinkedit opens but the map is that of the dmod selected how to get a new map?
You need to make a new DMOD folder and copy&paste files(Mentioned in the Tutorial). Then, that folder will show up on DFarc, click it and then click the Edit button.
Download a "Skeleton" file from The Dink Network. Also, may I suggest you download WinDinkEdit before you even start learning using DinkEdit. WDE is much fancier and better than good ol' DinkEdit, so you should start with it from the beginning.

Sounds interesting. Don't be afraid to ask for help with scripting if you need some. Even the best D-Mod developers have trouble sometimes. Of course, everybody appreciates if you try to solve the problem first by yourself.
i dont know how to script so can any one teach me?
There are some very good tutorials around, I recommend An Introduction to D-Mod Making and RobJ's video tutorials.
Also take a look at the DinkC Reference, you find this in the develop folder where you installed Dink: (...\Dink Smallwood\develop\dinkc.chm)

Good luck. I hope you go through with it, unlike me.
It's no wonder. You just started. You've already started off better than me, by actually asking about stuff before mindlessly just making and uploading a D-Mod.
Just start with the basics. Make a simple conversation, robj went over this in one of his tutorials. Then move into choice menu. I think this was also covered. Just watch the tutorials and follow along, they don't teach the complex stuff, but you'll get a basic knowledge and it'll be easier to advance your knowledge playing around with that.
ok its going good i am learning fast and the dmod will be released by 2013 hopefully earlier
need help i made a cool intro but the dink in the intro dose not move and when i start i get a different dink to control and then the game goes haywire
You have to optins here, to hide the dink the game gives you til the intro is over, or to use that dink instead, and place him within the script.
But if I were you I wouldn't bother with a intro yet, take time and learn the basics, make dink able to talk to stuff and so on.

yes i have got to the part where dink and his guards speak and then he (and the guards) set out to find the assassin also i made the assassin a milder look alike and i wanted to give him a dagger like object any where i can get that?
