''TODO: Write some introductory text here''

==Extending The World Map==
This tutorial is intended to show you how to add your own locations to the main Dragon Age: Origins campaign map. This will allow you to add your own adventures and dungeon crawls that tie in with the main story.

===Creating Your Module===
''TODO: Add screenshots and more info''

First you'll want to create a new Module. Let's call it "Timmy's Peril". Select "New Module" and give it a relevant tag (I used "eih_timmys_peril"). Note that we want to extend the single player campaign.

===Creating Your Map===
''TODO: Add screenshots and more info''

Next thing to do is actually create the map. Select New > Map. Give your map a name and tag (I used eih_tim_wide_open_world).

We're going to take an aside here to go and get the world map file from the main campaign.

====Extracting the Existing World Map====
''TODO''

====Creating the Map Pin====
Right click on the Map Pins entry and click "New Pin". Click where you would like your pin to go. ''TODO: finish up''

====Creating the Map Trail====

===Hacky Magic===

====Exporting Your Map====

====Linking Your Map to the Main World Map====

===Creating an Area to Land in===
===Making Sure You Can Get Back Out===
===Scripting Your Area===
===Give it a Whirl!===

==Using Secondary Maps==

===What For?===
===How to Use Secondary Maps===
===How to Get Rid of The Secondary Map===
===Style Concerns===

==How to Make Enemies for Fun and Profit (aka Spawning NPCs)==

===Adding Monsters===

===Adding Neutral NPCs===

===Adding Merchants===

==Creating a Simple Plot==

===Timmy Fell Down The Well!===

===Rescuing Timmy===

===Getting Paid (or not)===

==Creating a New Companion==
