I like your memory great idea!

Great!

I think you quoted/answered the wrong person

Oh this is so cool! 

I think you mean you would like to be able to create a package {engine + game data} for any OS from the Quest Editor, am I correct ?

We plan to make a "Learn Solarus" part in the website,  like this: http://learn.getgrav.org/
It will be markdown files hosted on Github, so everyone car make pull requests.

And we could merge everything into a single Github organization: https://github.com/solarus-games 

Ha sorry, I didn't know you wanted to potentially sell your game! You should make some research on compatibility between GPLv3 and CC. Someone made me notice that Solarus logo was under CC, which was bad because Solarus itself is under GPLv3, so I changed it to match the engine's license. But for the art, I think it's fine if you use non-commercial CC
Renkineko is right, you can still keep "feather" but you can use another mythological name. Hermes for example was the god of travellers/god of athletes. Seems good for the boots

You should also use GPLv3 for the art, I read that if you want your game to be GPLv3, Creative Commons for sprites, sounds & music is not recommended, and all should be in the same license (I don't remember why)

Hi, just to say, you can use Lua syntax coloring when you post code. In the code tag, you can set Lua like this:

Code Select Expand

[code=lua]

I edited your post to set this option

If you know how to do it, it would be cool indeed

I am working on changing the look of the website and the forum soon to make it more profesionnal, it may be ready for the beginning of 2016.

Never tried Scribus. I do use Indesign, it's part of my job ^^

So I have to ask you some questions about it. I use it as an amateur and try learning it by myself, and I was wondering if you can automatically import text in text boxes, for files, or something like this ?

[If you want to use Latex:]

If you want to use Latex:
If you're using Windows, install MikTeX. Here is a tutorial, since I can see you don't know his software.

• 1. Install MikTex
• 2. Install an editor. When I use Latex under Windows, i use Texmaker.
• 3. Learn Latex basics. Here is a tutorial. Begin with the basic stuff. Don't try to do formatting as the beginning, just write each part.

Once again, it is not a "direct" editor, you don't directly see what the document will look like. You have to "generate" the document each time you want to see the actual result. But is has lots of advantages, like it's very professional (every pro in the scientific domain uses this).
Once you've discovered Latex, we can show you how to create a Git repository to store your files, if you don't know, so that people can contribute and modify just one file without modify the original document. You'll see, it is so much better than one unique big single file (or one unique big single Google document).

And after that, we can also help you to improve the aesthetics of the document. First, don't use the logo as a background, it prevents from a good readability. The background has to be all white, it the best, for clarity and for economy. We'll see later for other improvements when you have gone further in the writing.

Since you like open-source, why not using Scribus? It looks like a solid tool and it's an alternative to Adobe Indesign, which is in my opinion the tool to create nice books and stuff.

Yes Adobe InDesign would be the best But it's really expensive. I've never really tried Scribus. The last time I tried, it was not really handy. Do you use it ?

LibreOffice is just the new name of OpenOffice. Actually, OpenOffice development was stopped a few years ago. Since the code was open-source, some people took the following. You should use LibreOffice instead of OpenOffice, much more stable, fast and better
