TODO: Adapt the structure of the main page to move Howtos to their own sections, and also consolidate specific component topics. I sent the below suggested basic structure to TMC earlier. This is simply a concept for content and organization, and it doesn't have to be followed to the letter, but these are my thoughts in any case. --Bevinsky

- [[Basic i25 Walkthrough]]
# i24 and i25 are very similar. Instead of having separate pages
# for each of these items, it might be better to cover differences on each page.
# -- Perhaps this is not a desired idea?


# document directory structure:
<h2 style="margin-top:0;padding-top:0">Volume 2</h2>
# - Executable/datadir structure
Volume 2 is the main focus of OuroDev's ongoing efforts to clean up and modernize the City of Heroes (CoH) code, completely open source. The current version is "''Issue 2: Foundations of Tomorrow"''
# - other dirs, such as C:\coh_data\attributes?
[[Directories]]


# Should assemble magnet links for specific assets?
It is a stable base for server owners to deploy, and is built off of Issue 24 (stylized as i24), the last open beta version of the game before it was shut down.
