SYSTEM SPECS

Users can add their system specs to the wiki in their User: space in a standardized format. This is handy for linking to their specs from forum posts/sigs or other sites. STEP uses this data for support and for fine-tuning guide-specific system requirements.

GUIDE-BUILDING ACTIONS

1. Create Mods & System Specs[edit | edit source]

STEP Guides require mod pages in order to add them to game-specific Guides. Some mods also require specific instructions. Many Mod pages already exist, but new mods will need to be added as necessary.

Choose the applicable game, and enter the full mod name as depicted from the source:

2. Create & Edit Game Mod Lists[edit | edit source]

Concepts (dynamic Categories) are needed to associate mods with mod groups for a given game guide. All games require one Concept per mod group. Concept pages are like Concept:SkyrimSE_ModGroup_01-Tools. This only needs to be done if the Concept page does not exist yet (but nothing 'bad' can happen either way). New supported games will need to be added to Property:Game if they are not listed in the drop-down menu. All games rely on the same 20 mod groups.

STEP 1 - Create Concepts: (optional)
CREATE GAME-MODGROUP CONCEPTS

STEP 2 - ModList Create/Edit: Enter the guide version into one of the following forms corresponding to the game.

  • "Edit Existing" - loads the guide version for edit if it exists
  • "Propagate" - preloads the most recent guide version if it does not exist
STEP 3 - Copy/Edit Guide: Copy development guides using the current guide as a starting point if one exists. This only needs to be done once to generate a good basis for a new guide. This currently only works for official STEP guides.


STEP 4 - Copy/Edit Changelog: Copy development changelogs using the current changelog as a starting point if one exists. This only needs to be done once to generate a good basis for a new changelog. This currently only works for official STEP guides.
