@Justsomeguy - yeah, the tutorial is around (and good), its just that most people post without searching - because they cannot be bothered.

Ahh... a message from one of the mod masters. Hello Chips! I know some people are a bit lazy about looking for stuff in the various sections but sometimes it is overwhelming if you don't really know what to look for. I wonder if it would be possible to "break down" the staggering amount of information in the tuts section into some kind of database by type... that is, headers for Shipbuilding, Weaons mods, .cmp mods, and various other types. Picking headers for those things could be confusing I guess, but if there was an easy way to do that it would be very helpful. I would help out if I could be of some assistance in that effort, perhaps by sifting through the files. People seem to post similar information under a variety of headers, some of which are not very clear as to the contents. That's really part of the problem I think... unclear posting information by some authors as to what the individual files really contain. Is there a way?

I usually don't get ticked off when I see someone asking questions that are easy to find because I agree with JustSomeGuy. When you first start out in here it is pretty overwhelming, but the post about 'Moding info It's got it all' Please Read that's stickied lays things out pretty clearly. For some reason people are just skipping it.
Any way to make the text larger or to 'supersticky' it so that it always remains the first topic? Just something to make it stand out to a first time poster's eye? I know the first thing I saw and read was the Newbie Question threads by Chips and Accushot. Reading those kept me from asking the same old questions that have been answered so many times before. Any one who bothered to read the Please Read thread would be the same way. (I hope)
