RE: Advanced Lighting

I think I'm going to make a tutorial on how to make tutorials, I'm getting rather annoyed by big blocks of text. I think I will use your's Robosprog, you mean good with your tutorial. But I consider it to be useless because of the fact it's just a big wall of text, that newbies wouldn't understand to well.
Text alone isn't good enough, you need to include more pictures with clear indications to what you are talking about. (Sucks 4 images are limited to each post, got to link most of them to other sites.)

Take for example this... "http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Scavenger's_Chasm" A guide for a Jumping Puzzle for GW2, I was really pissed reading this. Why? Because I can't make out this gibberish because your in a cave where every rock is the same dark blue/green color, and their are a shit load of rocks. And it's also annoying because it's a very detailed place, rendering text to be completely useless.

Their were no pictures, no layout of the map, nothing to help me get my bearings. Just useless text, to which if you fail at any point in 110% comprehending it completely, you screw up the entire thing because you missed a step and now are confused and lost to where to go. (I had to watch a video after wards to figure out where the last of the items were. But even they are a bit of a pain because your watching 17 minutes of failing.)
