-adding general mapping tuto is in my mind
but need to think more about this.

------------------------------------------------------------
THE GOAL OF THIS TUTORIAL is to collect all sparely web information about glow mapping,
and mapping(not implemented yet), and merge them into an easy step tutorial.
i've made it because glow mapping isn't hard, but info was hard to collect,
-i think i've spend more time in researching how did different tools works, or wich version are
goods. it was also hard to understand each files utility and their purpose.
-the last side who add difficulty was the interactions between different part of the game,
concerning game visuals.
-and because all of those point are linked, i've tryed to clear this huge mess in this tutorial.
i've made it for fun, for sharing, and because i hope some pro will look and help me to enhance it. (and by side effect learn me more on mapping) :p
IT'S A NOVICE WORK, and i'm french (so my sentence, maybe the overall textes need real anglophone correction.) but i hope it will be usefull ;)
