A Possible Beginning Area For New Players! :D
Hello everyone!
I am quite new to the community but I honestly love the experience I have had and I tend to try and be a GM and a fellow helper to beginners in the future too :3
I also have a passion for game design (Especially making maps) and I would be honored to contribute to TMW.
However I have no idea where to start! D: I don't know what program to use to design maps or anything like that but I'm very willing to learn
If anyone has the time to send me any links to necessary programs or have any helpful tips I would be very much grateful and would love you forever xD
Thanks for reading! ^_^

The single entry point for all development is: http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/How_to_Develop
For just getting your environment set up, this is complete (except for that hook thing - I should fix that immediately); as you learn other things we would appreciate you editing it. In particular, the Mapping Tutorial is based on an old version, although most of the information is still relevant.

You don't strictly need Linux, but developing in Windows is always a pain. There's this article, which is slightly outdated and really should be merged into the main article: http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/ ... on_WindowseTHiiXx wrote:Could you please help me out with the Gitorous Setup...

If you need help it's best to get on IRC.

If you follow the instructions on the "How to Develop" page, the textures will be pulled in by the --recursive flag of 'git clone', and found in the client-data/graphics/* subdirectories.eTHiiXx wrote:But how do you download all the textures and all that jazz?
This is not to be taken as an excuse to skip the other steps.
