== Creating a New Mod == | |||
To create a new code mod, launch Visual Studio, and select 'Create a new project'. In the create menu, select Vintage Story from the dropdown furthest to the right. This will filter the list of templates, to only show ones with the "Vintage Story" project type. | |||

Select the 'Vintage Story Basic Mod Template'. This will load a new menu asking for a project name, location, and solution name. | |||
Your project name should follow these requirements: | |||
* Not contain any spaces or punctuation. | |||
* Be formatted in ''[https://www.theserverside.com/definition/Pascal-case PascalCase].'' | |||
* Not be abbreviated (''MyFirstMod'' instead of ''MFM''). | |||
Your project name will also determine your Mod ID, however this ''can'' be altered later. Your mod id will be converted to all lower case. | |||
