My most helpful threads

XanMag
08 Jan 2016, 22:35I scoured the posts that I have either started or have been a part of and titled and linked them below. They contain answers to some of the most common and most used components of Quest (at least the ones I have used often). I did not include posts that I felt were super specific (I've had a lot of those answered for me, so thanks!). Hopefully, this could become a thread that people with questions can reference first for help. It will be incredibly helpful if game creators that have found great help from the Quest Forum also post titles and links. If it is found useful, I will update this list as great info continues to pour in! Hopefully I didn't miss anyone in the "courtesies". I thank you ALL for your help.
