(Creating) Video tutorials
Posted: 2007-07-06 12:18
Hey there,
There's much discussion going on about the complexity of PR and having different versions. This thread is not about discussing whether you'd like to have more versions or not, it is about helping the people that are new to the mod and/or people who are interested in stuff, but don't know yet how things are done.
So, I suggest the "knowing" people do something with their knowledge and make some nice video tutorials explaining how to do certain things in PR. Some examples people ask questions about (in-game);
- what is the shovel and what do you do with it?
- how to request special kits and when to use 'em?
- how to set up a Rally Point?
- how to build commander assets
- etc...
So, let's make some fraps of how we do things in PR, add a voice-over (explain every step you take) and put it online somewhere for others to view/download.
Some things we need to think about;
- where to upload the videos? (we can't use 100 youtubes, we need a central save point, so to say
)
- post here if you're doing a video tutorial
- link to a video tutorial in the Wiki
- perhaps we need to create a new Wiki page listing all the video tutorials
What say you?
