Stepmania/OutFox/NotITG documentation

Here's a list of resources I used while working on this project. Not mentioning the source code nor the discord servers.

  • Lua for SM5
    • very useful, explains the basic principles
    • has an objectively better render of the SM5 API (the OutFox API docs have the same format but have additional features documented; see below)
  • OutFox API documentation
    • one big XML file, useful for when you want to see the methods provided for a specific class
    • not useful for when you want to learn about the basic principles
  • OutFox Wiki
    • occasionally has key principles explained
    • also has a somewhat functioning search engine
  • HeySora's introduction to modding
    • this was written for a different fork but there's still a lot of (like 95%) common ground one can adapt (ignore the XML code though)
  • Craftedcart's unofficial documentation
    • again, it's documentation for a different fork1 but the basic concepts are the same and most of the methods also behave the same
