=== How to install ===
 
To install the normal version of the tutorial, follow these steps:
 
* Download the tutorial package, the link is in this forum thread: [https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10192]
 
* Depending on your operating system, you have to extract the Zip archive in to the following directory:
 
** '''GNU/Linux''': <code>$HOME/.minetest/games</code>, where “<code>$HOME</code>” refers to your home directory.
 
** '''Mac OS''': <code>$HOME/.minetest/games</code>, where “<code>$HOME</code>” refers to your home directory.
 
** '''Windows''': into the <code>games</code> sub-folder inside the folder in which you have installed Minetest. It is the directory containing the directories (not neccessarily exhaustive list) <code>bin</code> (which in turn contains <code>minetest.exe</code>), <code>builtin</code>, <code>client</code>, <code>doc</code>, <code>fonts</code>, <code>games</code>, <code>locale</code>, <code>mods</code> and <code>textures</code>.
 
 
 
If the “games” directory does not exist, create it.
 
 
 
=== How to start ===
 
To start the tutorial, follow these steps:
 
* Start Minetest
 
* Select the tab “Local Game”
 
* Click on the blue icon with a graduate cap labelled “Tutorial” (if this icon does not exist, check if the “tutorial” folder is in the correct location)
 
* Create a world (click “New”) and select it
 
* Make sure the checkbox “Creative Mode” is off, “Enable Damage” is on and “Host Server” is off
 
 
 
The main menu should now look like this:
 
 
 
[[File:Main_Menu_Tutorial.png]]
 
 
 
Finally, click on “Play Game”. Minetest will start and load the tutorial. If the loading is done, you should see something like this:
 
 
 
[[File:Tutorial1.8.0_Startsceen.png]]
 
 
 
From this point on, the tutorial should guide you through the game.
 
 
 
Have fun with Minetest!
