The Publishing Tab
The Publishing tab with each component numbered
The Publishing tab shows the project as it will be shown on the Steam Workshop.
The tab consists of the following components:
- The project name (title), author (your name/alias) and description
- The project banner, which is both the thumbnail shown in the Project Browser and the first image shown on the Steam Workshop
- "Open Thumbnail..." which allows you to select a new banner
- Cancel/Save [1]
[1] If you save, you can see the changes in Publish Project Window
The Dependencies Tab
The Dependencies tab with each component numbered
The Dependencies tab allows you to modify which projects are loaded before yours. Adding a dependency allows you to use data from that project in your own.
The tab consists of the following components:
- The Available projects, projects which will not be loaded
- The Dependent projects, projects which will be loaded before yours
- The Assign/Unassign buttons [1]
- To use the Assign button, select a project from the "Available Projects" list (1) and click the Assign button ">" (3)
- To use the Unassign button, select a project from the "Dependent Projects" list (2) and click the Unassign button "<" (3)
- The Load Order buttons, which allow you to change the order in which projects are loaded [1] [2]
- To load a project sooner, click the "↑" button (4)
- To load a project later, click the "↓" button (4)
[1] Projects inherited from projects yours depends on will automatically be assigned to "Dependent Projects" and shown in the correct (fixed) load order
[1] The projects in the "Dependent Projects" list (2) are loaded from top to bottom
