The goal of this tutorial is to take a new user of the Dragon Age toolset who is completely unfamiliar with the resources in the tool, and enable him or her to make a new, standalone campaign from scratch. Because of the modular design of the toolset, it can be tough to navigate the different aspects that go into making a module: scripting, building levels, even getting a basic module up and running.
