Introducing STEP v2.2

New PDF
  1. General Community Updates
    • 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.
    • Moving forward, the STEP Team will not only administer the STEP Community site but also develop, test, and maintain the mod list and PDF.
    • The STEP Community Website will be the main resource for all things STEP, housing the official wiki and forums and all development efforts.
    • The STEP Nexus site will continue to be the distribution outlet for official releases and the primary gateway to official resources.
      • Look for an update of the Nexus site soon!
    • The mod list is undergoing closer scrutiny, and many new (and old) STEP mod candidates need to be tested for compatibility with 1.7 and Dawnguard. Expect a completely overhauled mod list in the coming weeks.
    • More comprehensive feedback system allows for greater coordination with the community, selection of quality of mods, and easier updates between releases.
