This page is interesting idea - but I'm not sure how it really fits in at moment - think it either needs a lot more in it and more prominent links to it or XXXX, having something called portal that doesn't really go anywhere is not good, comments? Mak
Something like this should really be on the front page as a central hub of information - its good because it uses both axis more efficiently than the current front page with less need for scrolling or contents sections. I think ill have a look at what's possible at some point. -Spiff
That's great I was never objecting to implementation just that it shouldn't be left in category as abandoned project with no outward links - and hadn't yet had time / inclination to fix. There are now quite a few modding categories that can be linked to, including silly ones like modding humour, less silly one like famous modders, and all the modding /tutorial/ tools sections for both games. Umm well volunteered Spiff! - Mak.
Anyone fancy rejuvenating this? Use similar format to the front page or Rome: Total War Portal, would probably need to include a lot of external links as well at moment, and include sections for game design and non TW modding, general principles etc. -Makanyane 01:38, 17 July 2007 (CDT)
Suggestions for design of Modding Portal

Content
Section ideas:
- RTW/BI Modding and M2TW Modding - can pinch Modding sections from Rome: Total War Portal and Medieval 2: Total War as a starting point possibly.
- Modding other specific games - Wiki doesn't have anything on that at moment so would be links to sites of interest.
- General Game design, as above
- General Modding / Principles - things common to modding most games, 2d and 3d graphics things, especially Professor420's 3d articles in Category:3D Modelling, perhaps links to TWC Uni, SirPaladins Photoshop Blog etc. anything of use to more than TW games including other sites of interest.
- Other things of interest: - only really have Category:Famous Modders and Modding Humour here, any other ideas?-Makanyane 06:54, 24 July 2007 (CDT)
