Introduction

Dark Mod is etc. etc.

This page will be a full guide to just the essential that you need to know or links to it, from install to finished mission. It will point you to things you will eventually need to know in more detail but for now it will give the minimum, simplest, start. Follow it through in easy steps and at the end you should have a fully working zipped up mission. It will not have full details of everything but the simplest summary with links to more. So a door will be just to stick in a default working model door in three sentences then link to the detailed wiki tut on doors.
