What i dont understand is. There IS a beginner tutorial here on Modcraft.
So waht do you miss :) ?
The prime reason why Veteran Developers don't want to share content is because developers don't want noobs stealing their content
Nope. The reason is that a good tutorial eats much time. And you have a life, frinds, other hobbys and work. So time is something youd dont have much if you grow up. During school time it is somethign other but later...
Also the problem is not that the pros dont write. The noobs freshly understand stuff often dont.
If every noob asking for stuff.. gett an answer.. would write something about it. We had no prlbems.
In documentation part. We have a noggit documentation wiki. 95% of ths stuff where done by me. Every noob worked some houres with noggit could read this and update. But ....
So my question now is. What beginner stuff is missing in the tutorial series?

I've seen your tutorial series, and used a few parts of it, but I found it pretty difficult to understand some amount of your writing even when I knew what the overall tutorial was talking about. It's definitely there, but I don't consider it noob friendly if even I have trouble using it.
I'd suggest getting someone to go-over your tutorials and rewriting them a bit. :P

You're right, we have your guide on Noggit creation, and it's good. It's a good guide, but Noggit is a small part of WoW modding. It only really equates to a percentage of the total modding done on Modcraft.

We have plenty of information on Noggit thanks to your guide. Noggit is fine, it's fleshed out enough that a beginner can get a good starting point.
but we have so many other aspects to WoW modding, like everything I've already mentioned. Model swapping, npc pathing, cinematic creation, even basic addon creation, we have nothing near an adequate amount of information. In some areas we have NO or LITTLE information.
We just need MORE guides written by people that have the time and skill, obviously time is an issue, but a paid tutorial section is also a solution. We just need a way to organise files and gather information. Our forum shuld be structured more like StackOverflow.

Back in 2009 I tried taking "tutorial requests". It sadly didn't take off. I'd be happy with a place where people request information on a topic, as neutral and short as possible. As stated above, I don't exactly like tutorials. I'm not quite sure about what format is the right one though. Possibly something wiki-ish with commenting inline.
