I've always been a big fan of video tutorials. Perhaps it's just the way I'm wired, but I learn best by watching others, and I feel like I'm not alone. I've been considering making a series of tutorial videos on various aspects of mod making.
If I was to throw a series together, what sort of tutorials would you like to see?
Published Videos

Why am I doing all this?
Well it took me 2 years of messing around to become (self-proclaimed) proficient at mod making. In this day and age, there seems to be a serious stagnation in creativity in the EM4 community. The reason, I believe, is partially because of the steep learning curve required to create new custom content. With these videos I hope to give people the tools to think outside the box and create something NEW for Emergency 4. LA Submods are cool and all, but I think we can make something better....
What harm can come from providing a collection of knowledge in a quick easy to digest format? None that I can see.
