STEP is evolving rapidly, and the upcoming release offers up many new features and resources. It is easier to install, and comes complete with tools and instructions that will greatly simplify maintenance by even novice modders. STEP v2.2.0 has been carefully, and faithfully, constructed to provide Skyrim modders with what we think is among the best looking, most stable, and lore friendly mod installation guide for Skyrim.

- TheCompiler has given the broader STEP Team the privilege of assisting him in developing the Guide.
- The core STEP Team consists of: Farlo, frihyland, stoppingby4now, and z929669 with TheCompiler at the helm as founder.
