From Relic Mod Wiki
Introduction
Tutorials for using the attribute editor are going to be created soon (hopefully). In the mean time look at Corsix's Guide for Newbie Modders first, and Spliff's Unofficial Modding Guide, which contains some useful information.
Current Exsisting tutorials:
- How to Create a New Race Skeleton by Sasquatch.
These "How To" tutorials below are "to do". 1st, the Basics will be put in, without Pictures, then they Will be expanded upon, with pictures. Once complete, it should at least run through the basics with examples, of creating a new race down to weapons and abilities. They could be done in any order (eg: create a new building and then a squad to be produced from it), once they are complete.
It'll be me Finaldeath (& Others, like Promythyus) creating these most probably, so it might take a while to get them started! If someone else wants to do them (or other ones) please do, there is currently very little on creating new things for Dawn of War.
The tutorials should make, eventually, a new race, perhaps called something like "Robin Hoods Army" or "Green Mile" or something else that is slightly memorable.
