QUICK GUIDE: Uncompress the package straight into a functional System Shock 2 folder. It will NOT work inside a subfolder.
It is strongly advised to use a separate copy of SS2 for editing than the one used for playing the game. (This Multiple Install Guide is for Thief 2, but the information in it is still valid.)

This package contains a version of ShockEd with several user-made patches applied, to fix various errors:

• Error when using objects with TGA textures.
• MIS corruption when typing "script_load" without a module name.
• Crash when adding a meta-property in the range -7905 to -7920.
• Random num_rects error when entering game mode.

• safe_texture_manager now works for ShockEd.exe as well as Shock2.exe

   
It also contains a number of user-made tools, utilities and support files:

• Improved menus and keybindings by Nameless Voice [Makes ShockEd easier to use, see separate readme]
• Bright183 [Texture palettisation program, complete with batch scripts by Nameless Voice to make its use easier]
• Graphics .3ds -> .bin Conversion Utility, by Nameless Voice [makes the importing of .3ds files into SS2 easier]
• Font Tool by Telliamed [Allows importing and exporting of Dark Engine fonts]
• Song Compiler by Telliamed [Allows importing and exporting of Dark songs, used to control music in SS2]
• Motion Editor by Weyoun [Allows for the creation of custom motions]
• Motion Database Editor by Shadowspawn [Allows for the creation of a new motion database, needed to use new motions]
• Reconstructed Schemas by Telliamed [Allows the defining of new sound types]

I seem to be unable to return to Editor mode from Game mode by pressing Alt-E. Any suggestions?

Check that you have the line:

bind e+alt edit_mode

in your user.bnd

Well, I didn't have a user.bnd at all, so I made one and added the line to it, and that fixed the problem. Thanks!

Here you can find the Basic Dromed Tutorial which applies to shocked as well.
