Long ago, in a forum far far away…
Table of Contents
Foreword
We used to have a giant master list of modding tutorials and resources for modding Grim Dawn way back in the day. However, a transition of forum software broke all of the links in that list, and a lot of that information was thought lost to the ages.
But no more!
By implementing some search-fu and slaying an hour of my time, I have referred to Elfe’s previous list and sifted through the sands of time to recover as much lost knowledge* as I could. Links to the Q & A section in Elfe’s original post still have yet to be sorted through, and likewise any new info/tutorials that have been made over the years has yet to be placed here. If you have any ideas/links for other resources to be added here, please drop such a suggestion in this thread!
* I cannot vouch for the quality/contents of that lost knowledge.
