Step 1: New Project - What type of project do I need?

• Campaign
• You want to create an entire story, with levels and fights and dialogues, and a lot of scripting.
• Add-on
• You want to modify non-story parts of the existing campaign or another mod.

Step 2: Load or Create Level

• Choose Level
• Load an existing level in your project or in the campaign

FAQ: Why can I not...

• Add talents to the game?
• Talents are coded in C++. They usually override or change the gameplay rules in such a unique way, that it's not viable to create reusable templates and make them data driven.
• Change all sounds in the game?
• We use Wwise and sounds have to be added and processed in Wwise.
• Mod the UI?
