-As of right now the best place to learn about modding DoomRL is to view the source code of current mods and, if you can't find what you need there, to ask for advice on the Chaosforge IRC channel, #chaosforge. Mods and their sources can be found in the modding section of the Chaosforge forums. IRC, if you are not familiar with it already, can be accessed quickly by using a free web based IRC client like the one found [http://en.irc2go.com/webchat/?net=QuakeNet&room=Chaosforge here]. Unfortunately BOTH sources are filled with obsolete information, as is this wiki. It will get better over time.

 Although currently very out of date there is a [[Modding:Tutorial|series of tutorials]] in place to help with some of the basics of modding (as well as some advanced tricks for more experienced modders). It is suggested that you read through these if you want to understand most of the documentation. If you want to learn only enough to build a quick map, head to the tutorial [[Modding:Tutorial/Constructing a Map|Constructing a Map]] for guidelines and an example.
