** '''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>.
 
* Rename the directory that pops out of the Zip archive to “tutorial”, if it isn't named that way already
 
  
If the “games” directory does not exist, create it.

The Tutorial is an unofficial “game” for Minetest which teaches the basic gameplay of Minetest in a nice castle. The goal is to complete all the lessons and win the golden cup.

The tutorial concentrates on basic singleplayer gameplay and does not focus on any particular game for Minetest. Most of the lessons apply to multiplayer as well. This article will guide you how to install and start the tutorial.

The tutorial is not shipped together with Minetest and must be downloaded separately.

How to install

The recommended way to download and install the Tutorial is by using the ContentDB system of Minetest. This requires an Internet connection.

    1. Start Minetest
    2. Go to the “Content” tab
    3. Seek for online content
    4. Put in “Tutorial” in the search bar
    5. Click the “Install“ button
    6. Wait

And now you should have the Tutorial installed.

How to start

To start the tutorial, follow these steps:

  • Start Minetest
  • Select the tab “Start 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:

Finally, click on “Play Game”. Minetest will start and load the tutorial. If the loading is done, you should see something like this:
