Changes

The following are changes that I'd like to see made to the new layout

  1. Move the Language Basics sub-section into it's own file, add a brief passage and a table of contents for the sub-sections that follow.
  2. Create a new file The Scene (maybe there's a better name) to serve as a table of contents for the sub-sections in this group.
  3. Create a new file Atmospheric Effects and merge those single files as sub-sections of the proposed single file.
  4. Create a new file Lighting Types to serve as an introduction and table of contents for the sub-sections that follow.
  5. Moved the Patterns section up one in the order, so that it's after Textures.
  6. Create a new file Include Files and add an introduction, also add the sub-sections Main Files, Old Files, and Older Files to that file. Add links to each include file.
  7. Did not add the Quick Reference maybe we should consider dropping that section.

Additional changes listed here:

  • moved hexagon and square patterns to the Discontinuous Patterns sub-section --jholsenback 13:52, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
